In the Neighborhood

"In the Neighborhood" is a song by Tom Waits appearing on his 1983 album Swordfishtrombones. The song received a music video that same year in November. It was also released as a single three years later, with all formats containing "Singapore" as the B-side and the twelve-inch single containing various live recordings. "In the Neighborhood" became his only song to reach the UK singles chart, where it debuted and peaked at No. 80.

Critical reception

Roger Holland of Sounds magazine was critical of the song, saying that "to suggest that this is one of [Waits'] better works is to open the door to the corollary that there must be some that are worse." == Formats and track listing ==
