Well, to be sure.
Tom Waits has sung covers! "Somewhere over the rainbow." for example.

"Waltzing Matilda & the piano has been drinking" this?

He also did Waltzing Matilda which is known with another title (maybe thats the one you mentioned?). He writes and performs songs that appreciates the peculiar histrionics that his voice is capable of. I dig Neil Young a lot and he is one of my favorite singers, but I won't say that he's a great singer.
I think Buckley is more a singer's singer. His lyrics are also a singer's lyrics. Waits, Young, Cohen, Cave, Cash --
