I have no fear of death, it brings no sorrow, but how bitter will be this last farewell. For you are beautiful, I have loved you dearly....

  • This was Dads favorite song. I will never forget how much he loved

    music. He never said a word about the Rock & Roll records we

    played. Years later I asked him why he never said anything. He

    said because in his day he played the Banjo and wore a Raccoon Coat.

    He and my mom loved to dance. I was lucky to have great parents

    that all my friends loved. That were a lot of fun.

  • like so many of you, I first heard Roger as a kid. My uncle had come to town to visit, and had the 8-track tape in his car. Mom and I heard this song and we both fell in love with Roger. I was 12. I would lay in the floor with the headphones on, listening to this tape over and over and over.

    The day mom died in 2006, I played LAST FAREWELL and DURHAM TOWN ('last week momma, passed away... Good bye son, was all she'd say"). I cried and cried and cried.

    Am now 48 and still LOVE Roger!

  • @LynnCH2011 great music love it peace

  • @ABAYCITYROLLERMANIAC Truly a phenomenon!

  • we all played nothing but rock or country rock when i was single but Roger Whittaker was the exception his folk music is I think timeless

  • One of my favourite songs....

  • @1RWfan. I understand how you feel. My father loved Charlie Rich, Glen Campbell, and Roger Whittaker. All 3 of these artists had their songs played at my fathers funeral.

  • Ååh vi é AIK!!!! Hata DIF

  • I'm 22 -- but this song gives me chills. Great music isn't about how old you are. Great music is timeless. :)

  • Timeless!!!! Love it!!!

  • @1RWfan 2006....I lost my mother that year also. Things have not seemed the same ever since. "I'm gonna leave old Durham Town...that is a very sad song, I feel that too. There are different kinds of soul, David Ruffin, Al Green sure....but this song by Whittaker is as soulful as anything ever recorded. Is it a girl. or a place to which he sings? Maybe both? Maybe we're not supposed to know...

  • I'd like to hear Englebert Humperdink record this. It kind of sounds like him singing here.
