More Info
Based upon a play about Lewis Carroll's creepy obsession with the little girl who inspired his most famous heroine, Tom Waits' Alice is--contrarily--the sweetener of Blood Money's bitterly funny brew. Largely composed of weepily gentle and dreamlike ballads, Waits still cuts through the romantic mood occasionally but dramatically, as the opening title track's jazz-bar-at-3am love ballad is followed by "Everything You Can Think", a sea shanty anthem of nightmarish imagery.
