When I completed going through all the Tom Waits songs that began with “A,” I ranked them all. I just included it at the end of the final song, “Army Ants.” But there were only 13 “A” songs — and there are 33 “B” songs! “Buzz Fledderjohn” last week was the last one. So I’m giving the ranking its own post.
Of course it's all completely subjective but you got number 1 B song completely correct and I'll fight any man here who says otherwise! Well c'mon! Yeah... I didnt think so.
It’s astounding to me that two big Tom Waits fans can see the “B’s” so differently. For me, Blind Love is lengths they best, followed by Better Off Without a Wife and Big Black Mariah. Fascinating.

I’m fairly ambivalent about most of these, but ranking Barcarolle so low is criminal.
