Tom Waits fans check in here

The living legend deserves his own thread. Tom Waits is not only my favorite artist of all time, but also the most under appreciated song writer. I know he is in the HOF, but pop culture Hodors have no idea about the genius inside of this man. At this time I would like to compile a list of this board's top ten TW songs.
1st place will get 10 points
10th will get 1and so on.
Here is mine...
1)Telephone Call from Istanbul
2)Another Man's Vine
3)Alice
4)Swordfishtrombones
5)16 shells from a 30 ought 6
6) Tango till they're Soar
7) Hold on
8) Filipino Box Spring Hog
9) Gun Street Girl
10) Gin Soaked Boy
This was the hardest top ten I have ever done. I already want to change it. I could have easily done a top 100. But I am sticking with it. Are there any other Waits fans out there?

Man, theres so many great songs....but if I had to pick just one, I'd say my favorite is the one where he sounds all raspy and like he's smoked way too many cigarettes. Dat's my jam.
