BTw thanks for reminding me I first saw REM for "Green". Shit I'm old.

You should probably stay away from Tom Waits then.

There's a version of "Train Song" done by the Holmes Brothers that you might want to check out. The arrangement's not that much different, but the vocals take the song somewhere else entirely (you'll probably think this is blasphemy, but for me, Waits' voice ruins some awesome songwriting -- aside from stuff like "The Piano Has Been Drinking," which fits his voice to a T). It's not on YouTube, unfortunately, but you may be able to find it elsewhere.

Gary Jules version of "Mad World" makes me cry every time I hear it. Everytime.

"I find it kind of funny, I find it kinda sad that the dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had"
That line alone cuts me to the quick, it hits home so hard.

I sort of do. I always thought Waits voice for perfect for Train Song, but I'll go dig it up on your recommendation.
