From the liner notes....
Magnapop: "We wanted to be part of the Tom Waits tribute record, because Tom Waits is one of the most original, innovative and inspiring storytellers to have ever walked this earth. Christmas Card from a Hooker in Minneapolis was a voice that reflected compassion, remorse, regret, melancholy and conviction without any judgement from the narrator. It's human nature and we could relate to it."
