Helen Zaltzman returns, along with new guest host Amy Smith, to join Sam & Martin for season 16 of Song by Song. We take a trip back to Waits's earliest writing from 1971 in this album of demos and unreleased tracks, discussing the temporal and osteopathic implications of a slow night with Tom, the tone he's aiming for at this early stage in his career, and bouncy ball music. website: songbysongpodcast.com twitter: @songbysongpod e-mail: [email protected] Music extracts used for illustrative/review purposes include: Goin' Down Slow, The Early Years vol 1, Tom Waits (1991) Hearbeats, Deep Cuts, The Knife (2003) We think your Song by Song experience will be enhanced by hearing, in full, the songs featured in the show, which you can get hold of from your favourite record shop or online platform.

Lyrics - Goin' Down Slow Well, it's a quarter to two And I'm looking at you We're goin' down, goin down slow Yeah, it's a quarter to two And I'm looking at you We're goin' down, goin down slow TV went off about one We had only begun I know that the wine's nearly gone But I've got no intention of goin' home Well, it's a quarter to three And you're diggin' on me We're goin' down, goin' down slow Could stay here all night Thinking you're out of sight Please get up and turn out the light There ain't nothing better than the middle of night When it's a quarter to four You're beggin' for more And we're goin' down, goin' down slow We're goin' down, goin' down slow Goin' down, goin' down slow Goin' down Goin' down slow
