Tom Waits - Hell Broke Luce

[youtube=http://youtu.be/0Fju9o8BVJ8&w=700] The video for Hell Broke Luce is bonkers/brilliant.

"Luce" is a reference to Jeff Lucey, a US soldier who took his own life after returning from a tour in Iraq, hanging himself with a hose in his parents' basement. "What was his name? Jeff!" It's a heavy, heavy song.
