Best version of this song belongs to Scott Walker. ❤❤❤
One of the very few singers who can actually bring me to tears. Absolutely mesmerized by his range of emotion and a extraordinary human being, will always be missed❤❤
What a voice.God given.❤
I just found out he has passed away; Beautiful man, beautiful voice.
Scott, such emotion , you cast me into some kind of dream world for two and a half minutes, the world stops and all I hear is your singing. No comparison.
このバージョンの方が いいと思います。 レコードで聴いた時は 彼の思いが強すぎて 聴き手に圧力を かんじましたが これは かなり抑えて 切ない歌を より切なくロマンチックに 歌っています。 いつもスコットの事を UPしてくれて ありがとうございます😊
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful...imagine Scott singing this song to you...I could die happy. Bless you Scott, RIP ♥️😢
Beautiful man beautiful voice ❤️ RIP Scott 💔 Did you have to go away😢
Thank you so much, we must not forget this wonderful man,and his unforgettable voice, Many Thanks Guidofski. !!

Scott will never be forgotten he is without doubt the greatest and most talented singer of the last 50 years or so. I remember the first time I heard his voice singing Love Her when I was a young 15 year old I was mesmerised by him still am every time I hear him. The quality and tone in his voice was unique. Thank you so much Guidofski
What a beautiful song!
To the best singer, song writer ever, you have all our love and feelings Scott, you were marvellous Arlene
Miss Scott so much as well as his bandmate John.
Simply magnificent ! 🎼🎧🎤❤️
This guy had a unique voice, a real gift. He could turn his hand to any song, he was so versatile. I loved his music and still do, I have lots of mixes of his songs along with his compatriots, the Walker Brothers. His passing is a sad loss to the music industry but his music and songs live on, a true legend.
Hi guidofski ! good to know that you are still flying the flag for Scott. Hi Scott wherever you are THANKYOU !

Immaculate phrasing & timing, and that unforgettable timbre...slightly reminiscent of Vic Damone.
Scott added so much to a song!

So musical, so touching and professional. A nice voice used to great communicating effect! We never heard enough did we. Wonderful strings BTW, including some harp. Very nice to hear a snippet of "Joanna" at the end too, greatest ballad ever.

George Burrell: thank you for 'staying' till the end of the clip. I love the "Joanna" bit as well, lovely arrangement; they also use it as the intro for some of these shows. It was clearly his "calling card" at this time.

“Nice”???? Geez!
His phrasing is quite beautiful on this version so the slightly less than perfect sound can be ignored and just thank God I can hear it. Because I saw him sing this more than once on TV, I can 'see' him singing this: and prefer this simpler arrangement to the recorded one.

Wendy Lewis: thank you so much for appreciating the performance over the imperfections. I know purists complain about the poor sound quality but I think the fact that these recordings are the only thing we have left from his tv show is a blessing to be cherished. You were so lucky to have been there at the time, too!
This is a beautiful song and brings back magical memories of growing up. 🎶🕺✔️
Lovely version, Heard every word too. Lovely tone. Miss singers like this.
These people in this audience must have been aware that they were in the presence of true genius!.

Posiblemente la canción de amor más bella que se ha escrito. Jacques Brel y Scott Walker, me roban el corazón.
Combination voice colors between andy wiliam, mat monro and himself...i just hear this singer in we're alone two months ago...oh!
Thank you so much for this, anything else from his tv show would be very much appreciated.

Gone away too soon...
On his album Scott 3, the finale is with a female choir. Although the choir sings heavenly, and Scott sings it in an almost sacral way, I sometimes doubted if it did Brel's composition justice. Brel performed it in an introspective way too, choking up, and with emotional outbursts. Although Brel did have a combo backing in the finale, he would never have used a classical choir. Around that time, the critics started to come in, "Walker is not Brel! He doesn't have the emotional power Brel had." No, Scott was no Brel. He didn't pretend to be one. He did the songs in HIS style, with the voice HE had. It's a fact though that his emotions never became rowdy, he never went beyond sophistication and elegance. I think he did Brel fantastic. Especially in sarcastic, satirical songs like "Funeral Tango" and "Next", which he did in a snobbish and life-weary tone. Also, thanks to Scott, I finally could understand what the French lyrics were about! (Translated by Rod McKuen or Mort Shuman) The choir in If You Go Away increases the melancholy, the heartbroken mood. Here, I hear his live version without backing singers, and that quality is still there, it's still a very melancholic song. Yet I prefer the 1969 album track. For me, that is the ultimate version.
スコット…貴方は本当に行ってしまったのですね。 大好きでした。
Ne Mas Quitte Pas.....Jacques Brel original.
Safest of song
He was so beautiful❤️ but not for long? And he hid himself🥲so sad!
".......and I'd have been the shadow of your dog, if you'd only kept me by your side......."----the original lyrics at the end. They kind of, DRIVE HOME the point too much for Rod McKuen, I guess. Jacques Brel once said of this song of his that it's about "the cowardice of men".
This is a VOICE !!!!!!! He could have had numbers ones after number ones if he stuck with pop stuff or good ballads ... his later works were too off-the-wall for my patience .. just saying before I'm attacked

@Gordon Hastie I quite sure that it was Peter Knight who arranged the orchestrations for all of Scott’s tv series. Peter Knight was just as good as Angela Morley in my view.
