  • A gem. Heart rending string arrangement. Why aren't these tracks more well known?

  • I agree, it's frustrating and puzzling that they remain so obscure... I hope that in some small way I can help bring some attention to them.

    Thanks for your comment. :)

  • @guidofski it s a shame.but then it s kind of charming in a way.

  • @cosmicrider287 It is indeed. ;)

  • Thank you guidofski for posting this beautiful, haunting song. He is such a wonderful poet.

  • A poet indeed. Thank you for the lovely words! :)

  • I would like there to be a Facebook / Twitter pressure group of some sort whereby signatures could be collected to try to persuade Scott to tour again with the songs from this time - I'm sure it would attract a lot of interest. These numbers need to be heard by the X-Factor generation.

  • Much as i like Scott Walker's songs, I have to agree with namtap . We have all this great music - let the guy live his life as he wants.

  • ''of fat Monique, whos thunder laugh.'' ??? xD

  • When I hear this beautiful song I think of Van Gogh's Café Terrace on the Place du Forum, anyone else?

  • The universe in its cold cold darkness and bright hot stars which drift apart, resounds somewhere in this man's soul. Someone sings outside my window. Is it the wind? Should I go out?

  • How about we just accept that the past is the past and now is now and that Scott should do what he wants?

  • @cosmicrider287 Raak!! Heb zo ongeveer 25 songs van hem beluisterd vannacht. Van de Walker Brothers is ie. Zwijmel. Na die tijd (60/70's) ben ik hem glad vergeten. Zijn stem lijkt soms op Wim Zonneveld en dan weer op Shaffy. Hij componeert nu ijle soms huiveringwekkende muziek. Niet van deze wereld en toch hoor ik hem/tot op t bot gaat t. Bedankt hiervoor, wat een stem en persoonlijkheid. Niet te overtroeven. Hugs van Heleen

  • unbelievable giant of a song.

  • @captainkundalini1

    A thinking man's crooner has he been called. That might explain it ;-). But a pity it is indeed.

  • @captainkundalini1 because people watch Jersey Shore now.

  • bonitin', but sad.
