Tom Waits v Leonard Cohen?
    #25856166 -

In a real fix over here.

'Heart of Saturday Night' versus.... 'Bird on a Wire'.

'There is a War' ....vs... 'Whistling Past the Graveyard'!?



What say you?

I don't know much about either so I picked Waits



He's in "The Imaginarium of Doctor Pranosis,"

Cohen by far. Cohen is (was) a much better song writer, more sincere, spoke more directly to the human condition, more iconic. Cohen’s final record was incredible self-requiem - imo, even better than Bowie’s Black Star.

Waits, after The Heart of Saturday Night, often becomes a goofy caricature of himself. The ridiculousness of his exaggerated gravel and film score moodiness is, compared to Cohen, contrived.  Waits has some fantastic moments but Cohen is in a whole nother class.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

I'm not really a fan of either, but I find Waits more depressing.
