Darius Ruckers voice is so rich and full. This was our first dance song at our wedding. Fist date was Hootie and the Blowfish concert in Detroit and they shared the bill with Toad the wet sprocket. Amazing

Holy shit, I have never heard anyone do Tom Waits justice but Rucker comes damn close. Guy is amazing.

[BluesUrbano]

I can imagine Tom Waits grinning every time a royalty check comes to his doors and it reads: "Hootie & The Blowfish".
