Halloween Everyday 7.0: "Underground" by Tom Waits
The first cut of Swordfishtrombones, my first and favorite Waits album. Possibly the most important music of my terribly awkward and insular teenage years. Not so much a balloon that lifted me from the neighborhood-at-large, but rather a freight elevator that pulled me deep into the guts of the imaginary world (where so much of the real world is revealed).
Oh, and as ever, a creepy song. See those bones dancing in the tunnels?
