" (...) which indicates he was a great character singer (...) " Absolutely. And although he didn't write this one, you can tell his heart is in it. I believe he was a master observer of the human condition, which allowed him to write and sing with a knowledge far beyond his years. Everything he wrote between the ages of 23-27 (and of course his Brel renditions) is staggering. How someone so young sounds so experienced and world-weary is a big part of my fascination for early Scott Walker.

The crazy thing is your description is right but he wasn't even a professional singer. Imo that makes him even more amazing.

@@LudwigvonDrake Forgive me, but I'm not quite sure if I've 100% gotten the meaning of your reply; still, it seems clear that you feel like I'm making a mockery of Scott Walker, for one - but also, *your* feelings and experiences; the pain and sorrow, in particular. I hope you will take me at my word, Sir, when I tell you that this was, in no way, my intention. I don't claim to be S.W's _biggest_ fan, or his _most knowledgeable,_ but even if I _am_ guilty of being one of these fans who are only into the most popular stuff - ie, the 'sad' stuff about breaking up, and the like, I believe that that material alone is _more than_ sufficient evidence of his genius and talent. As for _yourself,_ let me assure you that while I would by no means claim to be the most virtuous person on the internet, it has never, _ever_ been my custom to make fun of those who have the courage to lay bare their emotions online (unless - possibly - those emotions are unwarranted feelings of hate, aggravated by malevolent intentions!) Like yourself, I have keenly felt joy, sorrow and pain in my life. In my case, the first, certainly, and I give heartfelt thanks to my late wife, particularly, for that; but more than my 'fair share' of the latter two, as well! Lest it seem I'm whinging or being self - indulgent, I will also say that most of the sorrow and pain I have actually brought on myself (and, shamefully, on those I loved, or was loved _by._ ) Unfortunately, it seems that I've always been one of those people who "just - will - not - be - _told!"_ and, man and boy, have always had to learn things 'the _hard_ way!' (I don't recommend it as a life strategy!) That said, these last five - or - so years have been marked for me by an especially large amount of ill health, bereavement and loneliness. In such cases some might 'lash - out', but for me, to be cruel in such circumstances, be it 'in - real - life', or online, would seem to be quite an empty, pointless exercise, and demeaning to both parties! Finally, since what may seem obvious to one, may, by reasons of culture, geography, or even simply one's age, be impenetrable to another, or even quite open to misinterpretation, I hope you won't deem it patronizing if I explain my original comment/statement, ie "You don't have to have known pain to be moved by Scott Walker - but it certainly _helps..."_ (I may not have precisely rendered the sentence as I wrote it originally, but if not, I think it's as near as makes no difference.) I think the truth of the statement, in its _own right,_ is self - evident; but what I'm doing there is referencing a humourous (allegedly humerous!) novelty sign that was seemingly ubiquitous during the 1980's (perhaps late '70's and early '90's, too): "You don't have to be _mad_ to work here - but it helps!" I thought this was a reference that 'everyone' would get, and you very likely _did_ -- but I do see now that to casually throw in a reference that is currently getting on for _40 years old,_ give or take; (what we would nowadays call a meme, I suppose) - might be just the tiniest bit presumptuous!! Unfortunately, I think I've gotten to that age when _time_ seems to be acting in increasingly bizarre, relativistic ways. OK, time actually IS 'bizarre and relativistic' anyway! What I mean though is that one refers to a pop song that came out "10 years ago", say, or an event that had been in the news, perhaps; but what you think of as "10 years ago" was in fact 20! Similarly a football match that took place "20 years ago" will turn out to have been played _40_ years ago! (It's a scary thing, your being too young, *I hope,* to have experienced! Though I daresay _"that_ ship has sailed..!") As such, if I'm employing references that are so ancient as to be meaningless, I'm sorry. Equally, I had thought that the dumb motto to which I had been referring was as ubiquitous as, I dunno, loom bands or fidget spinners; had been translated into 18 languages, and all that! If it actually _hadn't_ been a 'thing' in your part of the world, again, my apologies for presuming... Finally, I'm sorry if this reply is more than a little overlong! With this sort of comment, I have a tendency to waffle! As another 'saying' has it, "Never mind the quality, just feel the _width!"_ 😉✌️

@@richiehoyt8487 Thank you for taking your time and a serious and thoughtful reply. First of all, as you might have already noticed, the English language is not my mother tongue, and perhaps this may cause misinterpretation of my thoughts. Reading your response, including your most recent comment on this vid, your notion on tear-jerk kind of things twice or three times, I think lots of stuff though I cannot write them all. But let me tell you some. 1) In my first comment, I only tried to mean the SW’s songs were too sad and dark for a kid like me who’s mainly into bright bubblegum and not imply you/we cannot understand his coolness until getting older. 2) In reply, I wrote that ‘regardless of how you think of them. But there might be no need to leave comments if you say so too strong’; the first ‘you’ is ‘you’ for generalisation used typically in English, while the second ‘you’ is for yourself. I should have written that ‘Every great artist is great in their own way no matter how you/we think of them. But there might be no need to leave comments if you emphasise this too much. Sorry for the lengthy excuse, but let me add that a French teacher once said I should use ‘Nous’ instead of ‘Vous’ when I meant “you and I or people in general.” in the French language class. I sometimes make this sort of mistake. I guess native speakers might use a different expression. Does the above make it clear? Yes, I know some people hate the comments on the writer’s personal experience, but I like to read that kind of thing. I enjoy reading how and why the vids are attractive (or not) to them in most comments. Perhaps it’s not only me. Here, we should respect the right-not-to-be-known and the right-to-be-forgotten unless you/we have any specific purpose. But I think that society does not grant these rights to some people ☹. 3) In the recent comment, you pointed out the rumour that SW was sick and tired of the sales policy. But his bass voice seems to suit it. I must tell you that I am sometimes touched by stuff like that, knowing so for the tear-jerks. 4) Mockery? Yes, at first, I felt your tone was a bit cynical in a way I sometimes do myself. I have to apologise for the misunderstanding. As for the rest, I thought you were talking about profound and delicate things to let me think further. Thank you 😉😉😉
