  • Incredible voice and production....a legendary performance that silences the nonsense that purports to be music and invades our lives in the 21st century...

  • A crier....

  • superb

  • This song is Orbisonian in its reach for the heavens. Thanks Scott, John and Gary, for taking us along on the ride. I'll never forget the first night I heard this song at a party in Nice, holding Christiane Grancetti so tightly as we slow-danced and discovered each other.

  • i love every thing they ever did went 2 c all the gigs .met john lovely man gary so sweet but never scott . well sat at the same table at ronnie scotts clubs ,

  • Sadly John has passed away in L.A. at the age of 67 after suffering Liver cancer . His wife Cynthia and family were at his side . John's real name was John Maus . Scott is Scott Engel and Gary is Gary Leeds . They were the greatest . Fabulous harmonies from awesome singers and brilliant instrumentalists .

    R.I.P. John . thank you for the beautiful music and the memories

  • @groovygrovite Went to see John Walker perform at the Grand Theatre, Wolverhampton, England a few years ago - and I was amazed at the strength of voice he still had. Bryan Hyland was there and he impressed me too - he had moved on with his music somewhat. Walker Bros. music - so sixties!!! My era, needless to say.

  • @Dave123444 Hey, I saw John at the same venue a fair few years ago. He played a great gig. It may have been an earlier concert than yours because I didn't see Bryan Hyland but I do remember Screaming Lord Sutch and Jet Harris. Happy times. These guys don't last forever but the music does live on !!

  • John Walker died only last saturday, the 7th of May 2011.The only Brother that really was a Walker. Thank you for the music. RIP

  • @friedaromeijn They were not brothers, Gary Leeds, John Maus, and Scott Engel are their real names. And John Maus is very much alive!

  • @bloderme You are right about the name. But I'm sure he died, I'm afraid. It was announced on BBC and you can check other comments on Walker Brothers songs. I am sorry.......

  • Nice. Gary Leeds was a good friend of my brother in Sunland, CA. I remember him as being a nice guy and nice to me even though I was 6 years younger. I had no idea he had such a varied career! Did they ever Rock or was it ballads only? RIP to John and a hello to Gary.

  • If there was ever a cool fountain that washed music over you this is it, close your eyes catch the vision, beautiful. Thank you God for blessing Scott with that voice. Surely an Angel.

  • We would wait with great anticipation for every new release , This is so very timeless. London doesn't seem so far away when I hear them again.

  • OMG....haven't heard these guys sing in YEARS!!!!!! This is amazing! Makes me think of their son "The sun ain't gonna shine anymore!!!"

  • They were the days.....

  • "Who did you touch

    When you needed tenderness?

    I gave you so much

    And in return

    I found happiness

    Baby, what did I do?

    May I was too good, just too good for you.."

    Spine-tingling.

  • Just listened to Terry Reids version...OMG...sounds like a little girl is trying to sing it! Sorry...just doesn't compare

  • @stillovescott what about the version by the young Welsh female 'Duffy' ? .. now that DOES sound like a little girls trying to sing!

  • MINUNATA PIESA!

    song

    uncomparable

    Terry!

  • Way ahead of their time... check out the opening song in the film Branson it's what turned me onto them, a class act.

  • Speak for yourself crazystarwarsguy1006! I was 13/14 at the time, a classically trained pianist and attending a high school for gifted students and I was certainly not alone in my admiration for - e.g not being oblivious to - the incredible orchestration of all WB songs....And yes, I was a 'girl' :-))

    Thanks rovingeye2 for putting this song on YouTube!

  • The brilliant orchestration in these song is amazing ,considering the consumers were 15/16 year old girls ,who were oblivious

  • i love it

  • herrlich die Walker Brothers mit der stimme von Scott Walker

  • WHAT A TUNE THIS IS THX

  • Lorraine Ellison's version is nothing short of phenomenal but so is the Walker Brothers version. There are so many various criteria upon which to judge a work of art, but in the final analysis, is boils down to which one would I personally rather listen to. For you it's the Lrraine Ellison version, and for me it's the Walker Brothers version. But, I can't say one is any better because they are both superlative for different reasons.

  • bravo!!!

    cheers,

    metta,

    michael
