- Scott Walker, one of the most innovative and enduring songwriters of the 20th century, has died today, March 25, 2019, aged 76.
Walker was born Noel Scott Engel in Hamilton, Ohio on 9 January 1943, and grew up in California. In 1964, he teamed up with John Maus - who was naming himself John Walker - and became the duo the Walker Brothers. Their drummer Gary Leeds was a veteran from the “swinging London” pop music scene and persuaded them to relocate to London, where Walker has been based ever since.
Walker first came to fame in the mid-1960s in the group the Walker Brothers, before creating a string of acclaimed solo albums - Scott, Scott 2, Scott 3 and Scott 4 - that are regarded as some of the most adventurous and boundary-pushing pop albums of the era.
He then moved further out to the periphery of the music scene, with an increasingly experimental run of albums, including 1995’s Tilt and 2006’s The Drift, which reflected on Mussolini’s mistress, the Srebrenica massacre, and 9/11.
The Walker Brothers had several hits in the Netherlands.
This song ‘No Regrets’ written by Tom Rush, was a hit for the Walker Brothers worldwide.
It reached # 7 in the UK charts, #7 in the Dutch Top 40 and #5 in Belgium
This Toppop recording was made and broadcast on 27 February 1976.

Why can't people write songs as perfect as this any more
It would be hard to top this song!
And singer what a voice
Bring back 6os
And 🎸 player
Because they are too busy stripping off their clothes,and I wouldn’t call it dancing,I’m not sure what you would call it but dancing no,with faces full of fillers and Botox not to mention the teeth,this all takes time,🕰️ so not a lot of time to make good music 🎶 those days have gone,I’m so grateful to have this music to listen to xx
Usually not a big fan of pure pop but this is a masterpiece
If God would give me one gift it would be a voice like Scott Walker’s. Truly the greatest voice of all.
Totally..no one beats him for singing
And midge ure x
And Roy Orbison
I could listen to this over and over. What a voice!
😢❤,x
What a great song❤
I do listen OVER and OVER!!
Was there ever a finer male voice in the pop/rock genre? 👍🏻❤️
No
Scott’s voice transcended all genres.
Bryan Ferry, perhaps
That comment has given me the best laugh I’ve had in I don’t know how long!.. He would be the first to admit that his voice is … ‘limited’.
He played in my local sports hall - I jest not about 15 years ago and the overall consensus was - “ If he ever did have a ‘voice’ … well, he hasn’t now.” FFS .
No there not.
I still think this is great. I bought it for my girlfriend back in '67. We married in '68 and shared 40 lovely years.
Whoops. Didn’t it come out in 1975!? Still, it is a great song…..😊😊
@alandixon5144 Yes 1975. How strange, this was meant as a comment on a completely different song/group .
The Walker Brothers should have had more hits. Scott Walker had such a wonderful voice!
they did in the UK Europe and Oz
In the US, they were overshadowed by the Richeous Brothers.
Beautiful bariton voice
Wonderful voice of scott walker ❤❤❤❤
Amazing music and singers
The thing is people, John and Scott are gone, but you know they left their mark on earth for that time (it comes to us all) they have left their incredible music, this song has lived on and will be embraced by future generations...a gift they gave us and lives forever.
Pure perfection! As was his legendary ‘SCOTT’ LP! Rest In Peace Scott Walker💙
Yes, perfect voice 😊😊🎉😘🇩🇪😘
I've just lost my second sister in short succession, anybody out there who is going through the grieving process, remember your not alone, if you find your not handling your loss to well, reach out to someone. Y.N.W.A. love and peace, and a massive warm hug. ❤❤
I actually posted this advice to a post someone had written about the the song fix you. By cold play. But it somehow came up under the walker brothers. Incase anyone is confused as to why im taking about loss. But no regrets is a song i used to sing along to a lot when it came on the radio during my youth, i had a similar voice to scott walker. No were near as good as his, but i held my own when it came to singing. So many very talented singers around in those days.
We were so lucky to have been young in the sixties, wonderful music still memorable.
Absolutely 🙂
And we're on our way out as the our world turns to ashes. We had the best days.
Lesley Honey and me
Sure are
@@honeyfungus4774 although you do realise this song is from 1975 😅😅😅
Scott Walker one of the really great voices of pop music.
Scott Walker RIP.What a voice.
The deaths of Scott and John mean that Gary is the only member of the Walker Brothers left alive.
Because of this absolutely beautiful song, Scott Walker has become immortal. If you can create a gem like this one, your life hasn't been in vain. RIP Scott.
❤
Something else that's music ❤
My God beautiful
He was and still is my favorite singer of all time ,he had it all that voice wow😊😊
As with certain iconic songs - so many seem unable to read the songwriters name under the title?..
Not a ‘Scott Walker’ composition - but a remarkable version of . It has a very special place in my memory all to do with a super-special first date which involved playing a ‘Love Songs’ compilation-album several times … Ah , to be young and not yet ‘ An idealist mugged by reality ‘ to quote my favourite writer’s partial description of his reader’s . Just ‘how’ did he know?..
Scott Walker had the deepest sexist voice and with harmonies with his brother gave them a unique sound, I loved them, glad I was young then and not now! xxx
none of them were related
@@janwaite8596 yes you are right, I realised that after I had written it, but couldn't be bothered changing it, 😃😴
Probably one of the greatest songs ever made
Timeless.
One of them stand outs 👍🏻
Without a doubt.
Certainly up there with the very best.
What a fabulous voice fantastic singer love this song.
i so loved the walker brothers saw them a few times at the Boston Gliderdrome in the UK his voice was so amazing it giving me chills just listening to him sing this song 4/12/23
This is a great song, Jacqueline.
Top group.
The sort of song that gives voice to the phrase "They dont make em like that any more". A truely great piece of work and such a joy to hear again
brillliant artist ,sooo underated ,,,who designed the set ,looks like they fell into a washing machine,,,,and how come back then the mikes were perfect sml size ,,now there bigger ,,why ,,!!! yu cant see artists face now,,,
Was l8 when this released..how happy to be young in those wonderful days
Yes those days were fantastic for sure The music was phenomenal and just went on and on
The voice... The lyrics.... The solo... One of the most haunting split up songs ever made. So sad and so beautiful.
Scott Walker's voice and Tom Rush's song.....perfection.
His music will never be forgotten. RIP Scott Walker.
How has this only gotten 220,000 views? One of the most beautiful and haunting songs of all time.
totally agree 👍
2 million now !
People are very lacking in good taste.
more of this number , you can see here on you tube , with more views
Quality not quantity
Why don't we hear great music like this on the radio still. How I'm so grateful to have grown up with such wonderful music.
Try BBC Radio 2. You may like Steve Wright Sunday Love Songs.
Radio Caroline does .
It’s all synthetic rap rubbish
Oh so sad. Scott and John gone. I did love the Walkers so much when I was young. And Scott's voice. He could make your heart melt.
Mine too
And his looks ❤️
And his looks ❤️
Every now and again, I reply and it comes up twice???
Which one was John??
Scotts voice in this song exists as the Pinnacle of his perfection..... easily shows the transition from The Walker Brothers, to a foreshadowing of his futuristic solo talent, he is missed a true musical anomile... 🕊️
It's TH-cam, where great artists never die...thankfully.
Spot on
Artists never die thankfully.
If you think about it teh kina do
Mr5thWave
The best
How can anyone dislike this magnificent voice !
Some taliban or envious marxist...Beauty burns them
Half of Scott Walker's fanbase are the John Peel crew. There's a few Marxists among them
@@ahmedmahon2022 loads of marxists love the walker brothers.
Only idiots !
frankjohns2011 some people have to be tone deaf. So sad.
Scott’s voice is unbelievably unusual it’s like a velvety sound absolutely beautiful like him….
Hello Margaret, How are you doing?
@@Kelly-nm4kw hi Kelly how about you?
There's no regrets, no tears goodbye
Absolute brilliant song ....
Tom Rush song covered with grace and beauty. No other voice in the musical universe could match Scott Walker's! Absolutely Amazing!
This is such an iconic song and Scott Walker had the best male voice ever. What a gift and such a loss to the music industry. Someone please re release this for younger people to enjoy love you Scott x
i'm on my 60's and I write from Brazil only to say that I like this songs and the singer voice.
RIP the two members of The Walker Brothers
Scott Walker (January 9, 1943 - March 22, 2019), aged 76
John Walker (November 12, 1943 - May 7, 2011), aged 67
You both will be remembered as legends.
Vielen Dank für die Info.😊
I love the harmonies between the two of them and the strings. Such a brilliant song!
Watching Scott and John smiling at one another it's hard to believe their gone
They're. It's the there, their, they trap.
Sorry for being pedantic, I blame it on my sister.
@@tinmachine693,it's ok, realised my mistake when I read it back, and blaming your sister is a cop out lol, stay safe
Mike Godfrey yes it is they were my family & love em
Yes a knowing look and smile
Heartbroken. This guy had something. Nobody else had it..
John Hayward : That's a really nice way of describing him.
Ah, the memory of Scott Walker, an exceptionally handsome guy with the most beautiful voice I had ever heard in the pop world. I remember the day I first heard him sing. It was on Juke Box Jury when I was young. The jury were bowled over by his voice as I was too. As a music critic once said. He had everything. He could have been the next Sinatra but he walked away. Why Scott, why. Heartbreaking. ❤
song wen the son dind is not dear
he had a great voice. walkers did some great songs.
Try gorgeous with a beautiful voice ❤️😍😍
@@jenniferwells9032 true,
This was live in the 1960s. The song, the singers, the set, the clothes would not be out of place now in 2023. That is the sign of a true classic.
great song written by Tom Rush and released by him in 1968 , but Scott really puts his own stamp on it doesn't he ! As Derek says , one of the most iconic voices in music !
The music that he really enjoyed playing was very different to this , but he just sings this to perfection in my opinion ! R.I.P. Scott , and good wishes to all who come here , Dave
RIP Scott, one of the most iconic voices in music, will be missed by so many fans of your wonderful voice.
Derek Stocker so true great voice
Derek Stocker and John x
The best years for music caught forever on TH-cam
Brexit.Trump. x.
Scott, I will forever listen to you sing, there is no comparable voice out there. Miss you so much.
Hauntingly beautiful. The tears flow freely for a love now lost.
Ditto.🌹
@@dmg1866 Agreed my friend,but unfortenately that's life...hope you will feeling better soon!
Let their name be remembered for a blessing
no true love is ever lost.
@@debranchistesdumondeentier2946
He was ill and killed himself nearly 25 years ago. I lost my Mother and lost him nearly at the same time .
I never could get over it.
Still a BRILLIANT song even today!
It was written and performed by Tom Rush, both acoustic and acoustic electric versions, much like this fine one.
I loved The Walker Brothers. Such a unique sound.
One of the most beautiful voices I 've ever listened to... Scott's voice!
Not one of - the best
THAT VOICE WOULD MELT BUTTER !
So Love this Song , Really Shows Scott & Johns Amazing Voices ... 🙏
@@philwearmouth1102 Very right, the voice.
Oh so totally agree!
I had the pleasure of seeing Scott live in Manchester, England in 1973, his voice is amazing. RIP Scott never forgotten.
Hello Georgina, How are you doing?
This song is a masterpiece, nothing more, nothing less !!
absolutely..
Not penned by these guys though. Tom Rush wrote it
Easily in my top ten favourite songs of all time. An absolute classic. Never get bored of hearing it.
Boy!...what a Beautiful Strat that is!.. And These guys...are better than ANYONE...SINGING...TODAY!...FACT!...
Shame it’s not plugged in. Miming, no lead and Gary slightly out of sync. Great group though
@@jowaite8889 doesn't stop it being a absolute gem of a guitar though
I was enjoying the amazing vocal when the iconic guitar break kicked in. Pure class. Just a timeless song.
RIP Scott Walker...
Sad loss RIP SCOTT
Jammer
Love these guys Scott has a lovely voice
I think that there is only one member alive
Glad I was born in the 40’s and here now to listen to the wonderful music in my life time
Scott had one of those voices that as soon as you heard a couple of words you knew it was him ,sign of a unique voice ,always loved this song.
Scott's voice is of course incomparable, but credit too for John Walker's harmonies and impressive guitar playing.
Yes, I agree 😀💯🎉🎶🇩🇪
John Walker didn't play the guitar solo. Alan Parker did.
Lexo30. Yes, on the actual record it was common for superb session musicians to be used.. Alan Parker, Page, etc. But John Haus (Walker) was an accomplished guitarist who was well able to play it live, taught a couple of the Beach Boys to play guitar, and Jeff Beck bought one of his guitars. Interesting interview on TH-cam by John Walker mentioning that and also playing blues guitar. Go to mrrocktv John Walker interview. But yes, respect for the accuracy of your comment.
Mrrockontv John Walker interview
Classics don't get more classic than this - a perfect song, perfect orchestrations, and oh that voice of his....
Seit zig Jahren meine Lieblingsgruppe ....die Stimmen einfach mega
A timeless song, R.I.P. Scott, and don't forget John also passed away a time ago.
One of the greatest songs ever recorded... Iconic...
A stunning arrangement ...harrowing voice and lyrics .....and the guitar solo is sensational ...an absolute gem !
That solo is so amazing that the Strat didn't even need to be plugged into an amp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xD
And more than that, they made you feel.
Don't ever forget John! Great harmonies and guitar x
@@shiznicks74 And the cymbals don't move!
David it’s so true
I cant believe someone so young had such a rare naturally, smooth voice. Beautiful. Dont know what happened to him. He quit, became unseen and passed at too early of cancer. What a shame. John had great voice also. They were amazing duo similar to Righteous brothers. Great duos. Great music. Both Split and went solo also. Breaks my heart in both duos. 🎶🎤🎶
The only thing with the Walker Brothers, there was three of them.the drummer Gary Leeds was a member of the group as well
@@lindaflatman6976 yes Gary's father put up the money for them to record and also to go to England to live/ record. With stipulation Gary stay with them. None were brothers. John actually started the group. He toured singing until he also died of cancer...but years before Scott. Group sort of fell apart when Scott fell apart and quit singing , went into a ministry to " Find himself"..... then his songs were beautiful but weird...very weird. Should make a movie about them.
The best combo ever. An electric and an acoustic. Pure Paradigm.
What a voice, and what a band!
Brought tears to my eyes, oh how I miss those yrs and times
Don't we all, those born in the 50s and 60s....
Absolute perfection. Scott Walker had such an incredible voice. Mesmerising!! Never tire of listening to anything by either him or the Walker Brothers
I'm a reasonable standard pop Rock singer.
This man was the best pop rock singer of his generation, IMHO.🎉
Scott Walker had a fantastic Voice Great looks R.I.P Sir.
Alpha
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
R.I.P. Scott one of the best voices ever. Maybe the best.
Yes, I am having a hard job thinking of an equal. I cannot think of anyone.
I agree. Personally, for Number One "vocalist", you could take Scott Walker, Gary Puckett, Tom Jones, John Gary, Andy Williams & Perry Como...shuffle them up and take your pick.
@@davidjoy7654
RIP Scott I adored you and your music
Yes a great voice
@@maggiekenny949 Me too. I think about Scott every day.
This is brutally beautiful, whether it's Scott Walker's "voice", the music or the lyrics, something that doesn't transmit, feels.
WOW !!! What a song .... It Hurts To Listen To This
I agree...A sad song.
This song makes me remember ---someone who no longer remembers me..
Beautiful voice of Scott Walker...
Dont worry they still remember ... the times
@@nemesisavenger3347 Yes, I understand. Secret sorrows!
Yes it does.
Goosebumps! Sounds like yesterday...👍🥰💕💖💃😉
Both gone but what a great legacy. Stunning voices, Lovely timing, great harmonies and proper lyrics. My musical youth was enhanced by this great trio... Luckily vinyl and YT will let us listen forever....
Heartbreaking he's was brilliant what a voice no one else like him.
Superb song and voice but i actualy thought midge ure version in 1982 was better imo. R i p scott walker.
Why you say no one else liked him?@sandra Rock
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL VOICE SCOTT WALKER HAD-SMOOTH AS SILK
He was a great singer.no one can compare to him.we will never hear that kind of music again.
I loved his voice. When my daughter was young she said she could see reflections in his voice
Apparently there's a TV show called "The Voice" , well Ladies and Gentlemen I give you "The Voice" way before the friggin show was invented
N.º 1 male voice. Make no mistake about it, Ladies.
Scot opened his mouth and a million female hearts missed a beat.so does mine when I ever hear that rich and powerfully soulful voice one of only 3 who I Believe can vie for the title of rock and rolls greatest. For obvious Elvis then the Big O and finally Scott. God bless him he went far to young.
Couldn't put it any better myself....
Ian McGovern
I totally agree with you...Scott Walker had THE voice..
This song reminds me of someone -who no longer remembers me..
Stay safe and healthy
Greetings from Australia 👋
Well said. No doubt about it.
Never tire of hearing this...that voice!!
Phenomenal, understated vocal harmonies and a great lead guitar break, AND THEN you have Scott's voice and diction. Unbeatable.
Probably the greatest popular music voice of all time. Deep dark mellow tones . R.I.P Greatest.
david bowie said scott walker was one of his faves....4 real.....awesome voice .
Still brings tears after half a century. So inspirational in my songwriting
Still listening here in Ireland 🇮🇪, 2022. A classic.
Walker Brothers still alive, 2020, these eyes and heart tuning in to them. Refinement of soulful voices and sounds, one of my all-time favorites, awesome songbirds, missed the genre of 60's music. Scott's velvety smooth voice is crystal clear and has magnificent tones. We're blessed to witness and hear Scott and John. RIP, thank you
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Saw them live at Liverpool Empire in 60s. What a time to be a teenager!
You should hear him singing Jacques Brel songs. Amazing.
@@maryjsum Lucky you to see them, they covered the 60's, I was in high school.
Hard to believe that this generation of singers and artists are leaving us.
It just seems one by one they are going.We were lucky to have been young and fit when this music was produced.
I was 14 and really fancied john I'm nearly 70 now still can bring tears to my eyes no music can beat these sounds it'll last forever
He lived in Chiswick,London.
But their beautiful masterpieces will live forever
Not hard to believe at all. People die. Music persists.
Great to see the boys together, probably up there in heaven still making great music. God love 'em.
Very sad news about Scott Walker - a voice that will be missed by the music world and his fans, R.I.P.
Scotts voice will never be replicated. His voice is so incredibly beautiful and we have his gift to listen to forever. Miss you so much beautiful man.
Miss you, my Scott Engel...😢😢😢... It still hurts...
It will hurt us til we see him again.
@@rebeccawhitney1222 Yep theres gonna be one helava big supper table up there, please dont show yourself up,try and keep control, ----or at least until he shows up with the champers!!!!!-----x
R.I.P Scott, That beautiful dark brown voice will be missed
What a beautiful rich soulful voice. RIP
Robert cramb try the original l.p.pressing and turn up loud, oh, and get your s.e.a equaliser working as well.......watch out the neighbours ha ha ha smile ,oh and Tom rush original on his merrimack county album, very different production Indeed , and a good album to boot..thanks
One of the greatest songs ever...it's never dated
One of the best songs ever made !!,
Manny Tabletje THE best song ever made. By the best voice ever.
Yes, the Walker Brothers do an admirable cover of this beautiful song written and performed initially by the great Tom Rush. An almost perfect copy.
Manny Tabletje good but no
He's the best of all, never hear anyone better. R.I.P SCOTT ❤
What a beautiful song. This level of talent just doesn't exist thesedays.
I first started playing the walker brothers aged 4 (now 55). Very underrated band and Scott had such a good voice.....thanks for the memories...RIP
Scott looked innocent and sounded honest. Believable. What a gift he was blessed with. Terrific.
Just superb. No better vocalist. Wish there were bands around now with such good songs
An amazing voice, such good times
One of the greatest songs ever . And what a voice what a shame we have no talent anymore
Goodbye and God Bless.
Rest in peace Scott Walker
Beautiful song Beautiful singer
We are full of regret at your leaving Sir. May you rest in peace and rise in glory
Amen, such beautiful music from my youth, I pray they are both in glory with the Lord, RIP
Loved The Walker Bros. Still do.
The Walker Brothers in their prime, doing the best cover of this Tom Rush song. RIP Walker Brothers.
Goodbye Scott Walker...what a voice 😣
