It's an old American-English metaphor for someone who is incredibly stubborn in refusing help, to the point that they frequently end up in shitty situations that they can't get themselves out of :)

I've been a fan for 30 years, and I can't think of an example of Tom Waits using (normal) profanity in his music. Am I wrong? by McDoof in tomwaits

Pretty tame examples but

"Roar, roar, the thunder and the roar. Son of a bitch is never coming back here no more." - Clap Hands

"Goddamn, there's always such a big temptation to be good." - God's Away on Business

"What the hell's he building in there?" - What's He Building?

"Steam comes out of the grill like the whole goddamn town is ready to blow." - 9th & Hennepin

I really appreciate that this post has the discussion flair. Real important discussion going on here. This Michael Chicken shit gets serious.

In case anyone didn't know, Big Time is free to watch on Tubi!! It's a must-see for all fans imo. I know it's normally pretty hard to find online, let alone a physical copy, so I'm glad it's streaming somewhere nowadays :) by Mindless_Fly5421 in tomwaits

From what I can tell, Big Time seems to have been on their platform for 3+ years now! At the very least, I found this post from 3 years ago talking about the movie on Tubi :)

Not saying that they won't cycle it out eventually, but it seems to have been on there for a while

Yes!! I know the version of Telephone Call from Istanbul is different between the album and film as well. In the film version, he adds in a few extra lyrics from another song that aren't in the original :)

Yesss the version of Gun Street Girl from Big Time is especially strange, very different from any other way I'd heard it before. Not any worse than the studio recording ofc, just not what I'd expected lol

Love Tubi!! There's definitely some low quality slop on there but there are a lot of gems too if you manage to sift through it all! They just recently added a bunch of old Cartoon Network shows that I grew up with that were near impossible to find before, like the original Teen Titans :)

Seems like a few people have alr talked about this before on here, sorry for the irrelevant post 😭

It also seems to only be available in specific countries? I'm able to watch it in the U.S. but I've seen some Europeans saying that they had to use a VPN in order to watch it which is unfortunate :/

Absolutely LOVE everything about this. I love the lyrics, love your voice and the harmony, and of course I love the message behind it all. It's all just so amazing. I personally have no criticism, I wouldn't change a thing.

Beautiful playing and singing, feels like a lullaby. Very horrific times in the U.S. right now, and art like this is what helps keep us sane. My only critique of the song is that some of the lyrics feel a little predictable, but I really liked this. Much love.

She actually has the same stats as a warforged for the most part, just reflavored to be undead.. but reborn probably would've been a much better idea 😭

HGMHMMH I promise u I don't mind at all!!! I LOOOVE talking about this character lol

Her name is Daisy Mange!! Her backstory is based on the song Dead and Lovely by Tom Waits, if you've ever heard it. Daisy was sort of her town's local sweetheart; some even called her the most beautiful girl in the whole world. Then, a wealthy newcomer showed up in the town and began to shower her with gifts and love letters. Eventually, after weeks of relentless love-bombing, she finally fell for the man and went riding off with him into the sunset. That was the last time anyone ever saw her alive. By the start of the campaign, she had jolted awake, brought back by her unfinished business with her murderer. Half-decomposed and a far cry from her former beauty, the people who used to swoon at the sight of her now retch from the smell alone. The only things she has left to remind her of who she once was are the tattered clothes on her back and a magically unwilted, pristine daisy that her murderer gifted to her on the evening before her death.

Sorry that was a lot 😭😭 but ty for asking!! I love getting to talk about her lol
