Used Songs 1973–1980 — сборник автора-исполнителя Тома Уэйтса, изданный 2001 году. Сборник охватывает восьмилетнее творчество Уэйтса периода Asylum Records до перехода на Island Records, то есть такие альбомы: Closing Time, The Heart of Saturday Night, Nighthawks at the Diner, Small Change, Foreign Affairs, Blue Valentine и Heartattack and Vine. Used Songs 1973–1980 показывает то время, когда Том сидел согнувшись над роялем, в окружении сигаретного дыма, и создавал такие вещи как «Tom Traubert’s Blues» и «Blue Valentines».
