Ok, so I was singing my daughter to sleep last night, singing her some old Tom Waits songs, and I got to thinking...
What are people's favorite drinking songs? Either songs directly about drinking, or songs that they like to listen to when they've had a few.
She went out under my piss-poor rendition of Waits' "Bad Liver and a Broken Heart," which I would have to consider to be, at least for me, the epitome of a pure, broken down, alone-in-a-bar-at-closing-time pathos. Pretty much all old Tom Waits falls into this, I suppose. I'm wondering what else people either really want to listen to when they've had a few, or what songs just bring out those same sentiments.
