My life is coming to an end soon. Thank you so much Roger. I have been a Supertramp/You fan since 1974. I only want headphones on listening to your music as I pass on to the next journey.

Roger Hodgson's music is magical, it's a dream to hear his voice accompanied by a great orchestra. All his songs are "logical songs". Thank You Roger! If any musician should be ennobled or decorated it is you, genius! When I think that the brawler of the Rolling Stones has been ennobled, I am amazed and scandalized! Because this Jones is not a singer but a screamer...

@@barbararichardson8584 Roger is still quite well known. But there are so many Bands and Musicians, which however don't reach more friends of true music. To share their masterpieces is the least I can do to help them getting the attention they deserve. And to share joy with those who appreciate it. What are your "best kept secrets" in music? P.S.: This is a song from a Band of my hometown from late 70ies. It's about Jupp, an old tramp, who has lost connection to reality in the hell of Stalingrad and, living in the streets of Cologne, he tells the same stories day by day about adventures he has experienced all around the world. But never drops one word about Stalingrad. This original is much better performed: kzbin.info/www/bejne/naPSp3yYaZ2YhcU But here someone has tried a fitting translation of the lyrics: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4izfn6Xh7KsoZI It's not really possible to transform the atmosphere 'cause it is sung in a regional slang.
