      Ahh, one of my favorite Tom Waits clips ever (rivaling his “Christmas Card From a Hooker” clip in which he leads in with “Silent Night.” I wish I could get that clip for you; alas, the day job and YouTube often fistfight). Cheers to you, Blake.

      I think you’ve just revealed the hitherto unheralded influence that the Cocteau Twins had on Kool Keith.

      I was watching some Cocteau clips last night, they are so varied depending on what time period. There was a clip of her on Jay Leno which was pretty crazy, she was doing this trilly thing and being rather animated. The one time I saw them live, in the mid 80s or so, she had extreme stage fright, she stood there clutching her own hand and letting it go over and over. But her singing was spot on. It was so weird that nobody wanted to look at her and we call kind of faced away from the stage and just listened. That was their first US tour though, and I heard they got “better”.

      Yeah, was cool. Thats why i put “better” in quotes. It was genuine. Cat Power does the same thing, but it’s act for her (or medicationally-induced). And then she says she has stage fright and every one says, “its okay, Chan, we love you.” and she acts at all coy and afterwards you see her being all loud with her entourage eating sushi.
