Scott Walker - It's Raining Today

[@arleneculshaw8462]

This is my alarm every day who wouldn’t want t wake up with Scott xxxxxxx

[@CarolHolford-f6d]

Miss you Scott ❤️

[@robertdamico1]

I could listen to this guy sing all day long!

[@helenastokes3694]

It's certainly raining today now you are no longer here. Genius lyrics and beautiful voice. 💔 R.i.p 💔 lovely man.x

[@elpupogriton]

10 seconds in and I'm already weeping..... Genius!

[@alimac1052]

His songs are so personal to him, but mean so much to everyone else. That's what makes him a genius

[@ebaylistentomusic]

This is wonderful. It shows how real his magnificent voice is and not a studio product. Simply one of the absolute greatest singers in recorded history.

[@lynnmarychristopher9806]

Wow just learned of Scott and love all his music/persona. I'm not a crier, yet, I wept when Bowie died, I feel I may weep now for Scott. Peace beloved brothers 💛

[@danielm8151]

I too learned of him late, not until my 50s with Its Raining Today coming up on my Spotify algorithms. So much respect for someone who found popular success, then decided on his own terms "Nah, I'd rather be true to myself and a bit weird".

[@davidlee6720]

Bowie was a great fan of Scott's. Both followed untrodden paths, Never repeating themselves, breaking into new territory, often into the 'Shock of the New', Bless em both. Trailblazers - Scott especially - right from 'Montague Terrace in blue " I new something completely unique was emerging - with a little acknowledgement to Jacques Brel .

[@53puskas53]

A simply great artist.

[@stillovescott]

I wish I had a pound for every time I listened to this as a teenager! I'd be very rich. Thanks for another gem!

[@alejandromassucco8879]

I was watching the film Seberg I recognize his voice immediately. So magnificent!

[@andreiaboito]

Well done it's Song.

[@janhalligan6997]

he had such a talent in many different ways miss him and hopehis legend carrys on and the younger ones can take him to there heart x

[@wellandtrulyjoshed]

Beautiful man beautiful voice ❤️ RIP Scott 💔 It now feels like it’s raining every day 😢

[@helenastokes3694]

Yes we all miss you sweet heart 💓 R.i.p Scott. xx 💓💓

[@Artemisiainspain]

I went to a recording of his show for the BBC it was just simply amazing and he signed a portrait an artist friend of mine had done. I lost it!!!!

[@wendywallace3543]

Never will forget that voice.😪

[@borddakter]

utterly mindblowing, I'd give it eleven stars out of a possible five.

[@kw2785]

holy shit. this is live? the only thing that gives it away is the guitar. everything else is scarily the same. im in awe

[@caroleneider4886]

Just heard this on the Polish series "Blinded by the Light". It is like silk I want to wrap myself in.

[@charismaticart4644]

How lovely to hear Scott talking.

[@reaganwiles_art]

He and Jonathan Richman shared the same voice

[@amyyarwood1612]

Yes I agree his voice is amazing. I listen to all his interviews just to hear it. Loved him all my life. RIP beloved Scott xx

[@ascent7]

listening to scott walker makes me believe God gifted him that voice

[@mrswozzle]

yes and he pissed it away on pretentious pish.

[@riboid]

@@mrswozzle Jim Bob, that's twice you've made me laugh on this. What songs were pretentious, please?

[@mrswozzle]

k s anything on climate of hunter, tilt, the drift, and bish bosh.

[@MrAdriancooke]

My favourite male vocalist I think

[@narozzz]

Love how he talks in exacty the voice he sings with...

[@mrswozzle]

what other voice would he answer in??

[@guida-walker-channel]

I am so jealous that you were the right age at the right time and in the right country to boot! ;)

[@bertrandcoutens7880]

One of my favourites .

[@reaganwiles_art]

Favorite Scott song, the last line chills me and the -- everything about this song chills me! I never know what his songs mean, that does not matter to me. The arrangements are primary.

[@suzannecooper6027]

You still have the most amazing voice that I fell in love with 50 years ago when I saw you live at Bury Palais in the mid 1960s. I now live in Portugal but would love to see you somewhere in UK when I visit my elderly Mum. An enduring fan who last saw you on jools holland. Sue Cooper

[@talesfromthejails]

My wife Mary was there and The Walker Brothers were on stage for less than 15 minutes as the audience jumped them on the stage. Small world eh.

[@patwebb4112]

Yes, best voice ever, for me.

[@zyrrhos]

And now he's gone...

[@thatscousedude]

Fantastic! proves what i always suspected...that Scott's voice was as good live as on record.

[@-Ricky_Spanish-]

Thank you so much for this. Scott has been the soundtrack to my life since I discovered him in my late teens. This was just what I needed at this moment.

[@thejamesbrothersband5491]

eastjinks me too I don’t care if people think I’m weird while I’m in a parking lot. Hahahaha

[@urbanaeclectica]

Amazing voice!!!

[@miaames8883]

This song was sampled by Sneaker Pimps for their song Half Life. I'm so glad to have found this!!!

[@LoserNamedWyn]

like the jazzy drums on this version and the talk gives the context of this fantastic song which is really great

[@st-gg5qs]

彼は🍀生まれた時から天才だった。🤗🥰🤗

[@allyshanila6764]

absolutely incredible. particularly loving the drums in this performance

[@Syntox]

Rest in Peace, Long Love Long Live Scott

[@annharrison6696]

your songs are stories that we need to listen to x

[@GreenLightTraffic]

a breath of heaven

[@guida-walker-channel]

I wish I could, Cletonico! Unfortunately, as far as we know, the BBC destroyed all episodes from this TV series, so unless someone has managed to hide a copy somewhere, it is virtually impossible to see it... I still find it amazing the audio has survived!

[@Duckelsio]

Magical. Many thanks. Rest in peace....

[@mangayoutube2321]

Merci à Jarvis Cocker de m'avoir fait découvrir cet artiste en France, en une seule écoute il m'a donné autant de frissons que Brel, Gainsbourg et Jarvis bien sûre. Comme quoi il n'y pas que du rock et de la pop avec des paroles débiles en Grande-Bretagne...... Que j'aime aussi...

[@DAVA653]

Rest in peace mr. walker

[@billirvine9078]

Best version ever!

[@fro333]

this song sums up the young scott's world view to perfection, and in unison through the great mystery of art our own reflection and interpretation of his work and emotive imagining of human existential despair. whats the weather like scott? its raining of course. What are you doing? staring out a window...of course. Whats on your mind scott? a girl...that empty meloncholic space in my heart...and my lonely observations of a world slowly passing by.

[@dorothyparker100]

What an amazing comment !

[@catcook3324]

Nice summation of the feeling this song evokes. "The street corner girl's a cold tremblin leaf"......

[@JonsBasicGaming]

When you really catch the strings at the beginning of this you can easily trace the path from this to his contemporary output.

[@OutOfAmmoOutOfTime]

So true....he seems to be obsessed with “in betweenness” between discord and harmony.....

[@annharrison6696]

oh wow you are still awesome Scott xxxx

[@christinahuie7063]

Everything was already there as somebody said.

So sad, Scott Walker died today.

[@sapphiretaurus]

@guidofski This is from Top of the Pops? Then again, it could be any BBC music show, since they wiped the tapes of all of them.

[@tesstan1]

Is there a way to find more videos of his TV show or just videos of him singing, talking, whatever... I want to go back and live my life over. I bet I don't miss him again!!!! (always knew the Walker Brothers but only as in "sung by" I don't EVER remember seeing a pic of them) I've had the stay in bed flu for 4 days now. Somehow I discovered KZbin is full of this wonderful voice and videos catch SOME of his incredible... hmmmm? EVERYTHING? Shall I babble on? Nawwww, I'll stop not and listen more (since 4 am I've been mesmerized. It's 11 hours later and still floating on his cloud)

[@sultantheboss9130]

How old are you lady? Just want to know

[@mrswozzle]

The. King yeh lady. i wanna know too.

[@rvwrocks]

This may not be your greatest song, but it's always been the one I turned to. Today I have wondered if it will now ever stop raining.....

[@Neurodisco77]

I think it's in his top ten for sure

[@mrswozzle]

rvwrocks not his greatest song, bit it's the one you always turn to? ya melter!

[@jeffreymorgan9652]

A Singer with a real voice singing real songs

[@OutOfAmmoOutOfTime]

Those slightly discordant violins....wow....

[@lenahjonsson]

Oh, there is NOTHING like forgetfulness, is there? A gift from God!

[@nevadu79]

obviously not from top of the pops as you would not have scott himself introducing it, it is his own tv show

[@stillovescott]

He did actually become a British citizen..can't remember what year it was though!

[@arleneculshaw8462]

Jackie as far as I can remember it was 1970 lov Arlene

[@Witheredgoogie]

Guidofski - I can tell you that this below TV performance survives (made by a rival to the BBC). The archive is owned by 'ITV ' studios these days if you wanted to trace it.... www.imdb.com/title/tt0449075/reference

[@guida-walker-channel]

Witheredgoogie: I can't thank you enough for this precious info. I had no idea this TV special existed and it sounds like a real gem, what with all the names involved. I already found some great photos of the show. Since it's owned by ITV, it won't be easy to get a hold of it, but I will try and find out all I can. Thank you so much and I'll keep you posted!

[@Witheredgoogie]

@@guida-walker-channel Glad you picked it up as I noticed your channel had begun over 10 years ago.. I only remember The WBs from their 3 big hits, playing on a squeaky little radio.... but your channel has introduced me to so much more and the quality is amazing.Thank You... I put Scott's name into the UK lost shows site and the number of shows (mostly BBC) that have been lost is a tragedy. www.tvbrain.info/tv-archive?showname=Scott+walker&type=lostshow

[@guida-walker-channel]

@@Witheredgoogie : thank YOU for the kind words and for the lost shows link. It does hurt to realize all the marvels that have been lost, I guess back then few people thought of posterity or legacy, which is a shame.

Not really. At the time, videotape was expensive so it was erased and recycled. They could, of course, have copied it onto film but people don't get well-paid management jobs at the BBC based on their intelligence, but through their connections. They wiped loads of Dusty Springfield Show tapes too, as well as early Till Death US Do Parts. No doubt they were re-used for Terry & June!

[@markallgood7980]

Both crap comedy shows!

[@CrankCase08]

@@markallgood7980 Up your arse. Till Death Us Do Part was one of the best British sitcoms ever made.

the beat nic that sat in a coffee house discussing life .... trying to find you ..... as the smoke flowed ...... in the time you lived trying to find you .... make sense of it all..... that you did not understand ......as the rain beat against the window pane ... the sound that hit the window..... you heard and made it something tha t was to be ... important...

It's too bad that such a great American songwriter is rendered into such obscurity (here in the US) that his name is to be overshadowed by some union-busting asshole politician. May the former outlive the latter. (Sorry bringing politics into a conversation about music, I just found that interesting)

how is this song about his beatnik experiences and he didnt even write it?
