Tom Waits giving a rare musical performance in a new documentary about homelessness "In Australia, a matilda is a knapsack. When you're on the road, when you're on the run…and you're walking with a backpack, they say you're waltzing matilda. So this is a song about that."

Somehow the more weathered his voice gets, the more moving it gets, especially on a tear-jerker like this

The Once and Future Love is HERE! 📚🔥🫶🏻 Ferghus MacLeod is shocked to find himself in a country he's never heard of before, in the home of the bonniest lass he's ever laid eyes upon. Her Canadian accent warms his blood and almost makes him forget he should try to return home. It wouldn't hurt if he stuck around for a few more days, would it?🫦 As Ferghus tries to acclimatize himself to life in the 21st century, and Brigid attempts to win a survival competition, the pair discovers their chance meeting might not have been as accidental as they once believed. Not only could the star-crossed lovers be in danger, but the rest of humanity, too.⏳ Available on Amazon in Kindle, Paperback, and Hardcover formats. $3.99 #Kindle, or #free with #KU.

It’s a shame Australia now needs Americans to uplift our vernacular. A version of Waltzing Matilda should have been our national anthem … it used to be sung before sporting events. Evocative. Brilliant. Now rarely heard. Best recent use was the melancholy end of Deadwood movie.

It’s only just now that that it occurred to me that despite loving this song for decades, I never knew what the title phrase meant. What an exquisite rendition.

Seen those fellas with the cardboard signs Scraping up a little money for a bottle of wine Pregnant women and Vietnam vets Begging in the freeway bout as hard as it gets

Man, I’d love to see him perform. I hope he hits the road again sometime

full version of this performance any where?????

Yeah the full doc is here tho you gotta register to watch

Tom Waits is in my debut novel, The Lyric Hotel. One of my main characters is a musician on the road with Tom.

Thx, never knew what it meant.
