Scott Walker-It´s A Starving

[nevadu79]

mrswozzle 'this guy' was singing much better than amy winehouse at a similar age and writing amazing lyrics, recognised by many as some of the best poetry of the last century, listen to something like big lousie and try to argue then that he can't write lyrics. many 'intellectuals' within the world of music rate him highly, insist he is way ahead of his time, so maybe you should cry because you are unable to make sense of something rather than just insist it does not make sense, shame on you.

[mrswozzle]

I agree..it is nonsense. maybe if this mr scot walker got himself a life, he could sing something with some sense!

[mrswozzle]

this guy has serious problmes! At least Amy Winehouse could sing. Sounds as if this guy is about to cry because someone threw all his toys away! Maybe he should cry because he can't write decent lyrics!

[Jacquee9]

@mrswozzle Nonsense - get a life

[edgarholland]

@mrswozzle Ok, so you don't it - thats fine. You should check his whole body of work to put this song and the LP it's from in context. I think you will get more out of it. This is great stuff - but it's not a "Happy Meal"!

[jik7864]

From the original vinyl ? :o How lucky u r to have it. I'll maybe buy the reedition (vinyl too).

[anvb5a1]

This is poetry.

Music is just a bonus.

[johnniedent]

Bit different to the early stuff, which in truth had genius writen all over it. Still rate him highly though.

[anvb5a1]

To those geniuses such as Scott Walker, or Buckethead, i'd like to say: Ok guys, stay at home, don't meet anyone if you wish but PLEASE, share your music, even what you're unsure about IS great... you goddam perfectionnists ;) - please, share the passion!

[andreasjacke]

This is a nice, great song -- a great artist...his voice is very good...

[SilentBoatman1]

Brilliant track....again!

[KerryGrl]

Incredible. The man is great. Long may Scott run.

[Jonv54]

He's decades ahead.. great man!

[mababaki]

Gary´s harmonies???? He didn´t even play the drums on any of the records!!

[djaarx]

good stufffffffffffffffffffffffffff­

[antjuanoden]

PERFECT.

[wijreel]

What with the accompanying pic. Homie don't look right. Smile Scott, it could be worse. Oh, that's right, the sun aint gonna shine anymore. My bad.

[Howlycoyote]

I think he is terribly overrated. The Walker Brothers would never have been a success without John's and Gary's harmonies!

[89013344]

While I don't have all to much sympathy towards Scott Walkers early works, I do recognize 'tilt' and 'the drift' as great pieces of art - they even seem underrated to me.

[pez56525]

I had to listen to them when they were released . Big disappointment. But now they seem to perpetuate the individual genius of the man.

[ascent7]

gary's harmonies ?? you having a laugh he didn't even play the drums on any of the records they made , he was just a mascot.

Listen to lines by the walker brothers and tell me that scott cannot do his own harmonies.

Scott took lead vocals cos he was by far the best singer.John acknowledges that.

[veadlsteak]

get out of here!! we like scott

[sp1midholm]

I like the way the horns come in about 2.28 - beautiful song.

Come on Scott we can't wait until 2017 for your next album...

[ingridswheels]

His songs grow better and better. I so hope he`s in a studio now.

His London shows were amazing !

[Lmyr1]

I don't just "like" this song, I love this song.

[veadlsteak]

[wigmeistergeneral]

[Pwecko]

The song doesn't actually have a title. It's just calle 'Five', ie track five.  It's from Climate of Hunter. Great album.

[paldengyatso]

[Spidris]

It's an amazing song from an amazing album by an amazing genius.

[magone768105]

I love this album, the songs and the voice are beautifully sad, though.

[paldengyatso]

Please, what's the album contain this wonderful song?

[veadlsteak]

Why doesn't anybody else say "how" much they like this song?

[hoopymusicluva]

I fucking love this song, and the entire album.
