Scott Walker - Angelica Lyrics

What a gorgeous voice, great singer

Thank you for sharing this song.

Beautiful man beautiful voice ❤️ RIP Scott 💔 There will never be another Spring😢

Thank God I did stop at the flower shop...she's still here, my Jill/Gillian. I'm 74 and sometimes can't believe it...still love her like crazy

I forgot...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioyKZSGYPes ...go here to see and hear our son on blues harp and daughter in law singing... those flowers have a lotto answer for!!

I didn't pass the flower shop, I ordered them sent to her home...I still love her nearly sixty years later and she's right here. I've never deserved her but she stayed.

Love this guys voice, so talented. Thanks I wanted to hear this beautiful song again. Thanks pal

Absolutely love Scott Walker, a total genius but in my opinion Roy Hamilton’s version is the best.

Love, beyond this world.

Hi Guidofski, another masterpiece thanks for upload. He touches that impossible place in between...where eternal love flies suspended between two worlds. Makes me want to be back working as a spiritual medium as I did for many years...connecting the two dimensions...witnessing the everlasting power of love. My Angelica (Jill/Gillian).. is still here...I'm very lucky. Bless you girl, shame he's passed on but we have his recordings....

Oh boy I keepcoming back here....funny that

Fabulous voice, RIP SCott!!

So gorgeous.. this song gets me every time. Who among us can’t relate to chances not taken in time? Things left undone.

Absolutely amazing scott the best singing voice in the world xx

Absolute nº 1. Death can nothing against this.

Listen to Frankie Stevens version. A bass baritone, from NZ. Awesome.

A haunting voice that is hard to forget. Simply.... beautiful.

ah c'est la chanson de Nicoletta - ben tiens j'ai appris un truc

What a beautiful voice. RIP Scott

Roy Hamilton's song ,this is nice

What a loss, such a talented man who brought emotions right to the fore. God Bless your lovely soul Scott Walker. xx

Rest in peace, Scott.
My favourite singer for over 50 years.
Beautiful, as well as being a musical genius.

Still the best. In our days everything is mediocrity and noise.

Roy Hamilton killed it 👑

a danc e... with you ...... the memory ... I have ... of you ...

This has to be the voice on “The sun ain’t gonna shine anymore”. So good.

Yes it certainly is scott walker fantastic loved the walker brothers listen to love her,i get goose bumps x

I wanted to hear those words and smell the roses........ you wanted me to hear and have..... knowing you loved me.... gone before you could say and give me what you wanted me to have.... from you...... that you thought would say how you felt about me...... I knew...... love you loved me... a 15 year old girl hearing the words that would encourage her to find a love tha t would love her as she is ....... I did find the romantic one that treated me as you sang ... the roses the dinners the wine ..... the elegant one that said he loved me ....... he is a Valedictorian I am not completely perfect in his eyes ...grammatically but that is love .......he is still here ... but I have grown on him as all loves do ......when they love a one that thinks they are .....perfect ........ in their eyes ......

Each night I'd hoped she'd keep my giro safe...

Of its time. What is isn't?

Is this voice even real?? Having listened to so much electronically modulated/autotuned voices, this feels like a breath of fresh air from a pile of junk..

Words never said... and flowers not sent... tomorrow is another day... for love to show itself... to you.... love...... a time changes we all are a one hoping that a love will last........ if only we had said what we wanted to..... a love lost we are not ever prepared to lose... that one...... was a loved one... we had a dream with to the one that would be the love..... we always wanted....... to be ours..... for a time if not a forever one to love..... a love we always wanted to be the love love that would....be for us ......

Simply gorgeous song and so beautifully sung of course xxx

Simply gorgeous song and so beautifully sung of course xxx

always reminds me off my dear departed angel makes me cry everytime superbly sung by the incomparable scott walker

Prefer gene Pitney version

One of Scott's GREATS! More. More. More

pathetic

so good

Beautiful. Speaks to the mistakes I have made.

My all time favorite male singer

This song is so beautiful, great Scott!

How I imagine God's voice.

What a fantastic song, beautifully arranged and magnificently sung. And yet his female fans in the sixties couldn't even bring themselves to listen to songs like this and Best of Both Worlds. What is wrong with these people!

We were young - but we eventualy came to our senses!

LISTENTOMUSIC.STUMBLEUPON.COM

Fantastic track from debut solo album - intro is JS Bach like - great and most underated voice from 60's

This is how it should be sung Perfection

Wow that was good love the production and the fade out,just wonderful.

A genius...where is he now....we need MORE of this instead of JayZ and Kanye go WESt.

Doing weird and strange "music". I do not understand him at all since he started doing these things.

60's French romantic Existential  angst at its most perfect. Scott Walker, the Anglo American Brel.

Agreed. Listen to the French language version "La Musique".

check out Roy Hamilton's version of this songs.. I think it's the best version. This is such a great song, it's a shame it never became the the hit song it should have been.. It had been recorded by so many artists in so many different interpretations, yet never quite made it.  I guess that period of time, 1967 - 1969 just didn't allow for "good" music.

Yes, Hamilton,s version is fantastic, also Pitney,s . Anyway this is immortal song!

PutOnASweater I know Elvis introduced Roy to this song but makes me wonder what if Elvis sang this track as well?

Roy Hamilton takes a more up-tempo pace. Scott's version is near perfect.

humperdinkl sucks.scott is godlike

I am a great fan of Gene Pitney but in my opinion Scott Walker does an excellent job with this record. His interpretation is amazing. Thank you for the upload.

Yes. I agree. I am a big fan of Gene Pitney as well, however, Scott's version is the best I have heard.

You may well be in tune with the herd but I take more notice of what the likes of Bowie, Sting, Hawley, Marr, Radiohead etc think.

I have just spoken to Angelica // a lovely song// Scott so very special

I'm usually in tune with the general consensus of opinion BUT I cant agree that Scott Walker has a special or unique voice. His delivery/tone is not unlike what one would hear in any Karaoke bar in any weekend.

Try singing his songs. You'll find them a lot more difficult to sing than you think. Jarvis Cocker tried recently at the Albert Hall, and he just wasn't up to it!

Why don't you spend your life in the Karaoke bar and never come out.

Scott is indeed superb. And such gravitas like no other. Don't accept the comedy chipmonks versions by the likes of PJ Proby.

Perhaps he is singing for H M the Queen. He is, after all, a very long time American - British resident

listen to pj proby singing this

Scott does a really good job of this song but have you hear Gene Pitney's version ..
its definately the best!

Beautiful!!! Going to put it on Facebook!!

Well, to each his own! :-) I don't view his voice that way at all. It's just beautiful, and his diction comes very naturally to my ears.

Yes, Scott has a great voice, but he has always been so anal about perfect diction and phrasing that he ends up sounding pompous - as if he is singing for the Queen. I call it the 'Julie Andrews effect'. Also, the oh-so cheesy strings ruin much of his fine early recordings.

What the hell is the matter with perfect diction? Sam Cooke had it too!

Is this worth a response?NO

@Valerie Brown But, you responded anyway...

Immortal singer a great one from the past

i agree he did some good material at that time, lots of memories for me , mostly good, some quite dramatic. Scott fans must all be special ??

YOU ARE NOT WEIRD AS THIS IS SUPER MUSIC OF ITS TIME, RELEVANT IN 2012

JUST SO LOVELY

Its an interesting song, there are like 5 sections it seems before it repeats

as we did on so many occasions when this first came in to our hands. One of my fav. Scott songs of all time. I can still remember sitting on the top deck of a red london bus looking out a rainy window and pining with this in my head!!

The voice of melted chocolate.So beautifully sung. listening to Scott Walker songs, brings back happy memories of the 6os. I love the guy!

Sue, you said perfectly what I feel.

Thanks for uploading. great to add to playlist. Seems odd to search for tunes I just finished listening to on CD, but I don't playlist purely for my own benefit. Love this track.

likewise fan since 65 but sometimes i can't get my head around the fact that i love this, in my room, etc as well as nite flights and farmer in the city, am i too, a little weird?

no voice can match Scott i have been a fan since 1965 and have never heard a voice come anywhere near as great as his

Few voices can match that of Mr. Engel, and his rendition of Barry Mann's Angelica is done perfect justice. It does indeed go right into the heart of the soul. Brilliant and talented.

It's so nice to hear someone that can sing these days.
Very nice.

my favourite from times gone but not forgotten

Absolutely glorious voice of the magnificent Scott Walker. Beautiful song sung with passion.

Yes, Happy Birthday, Scott - 68 years of dedication to your art.

*Happy Birthday, Scotty* ♥

@fro333 yes exactly!!!

Can't believe I haven't commented on this one! Scott - superb!
absolutely superb! thank you Scott.

@guidofski

One of the kind of songs you could hear over & over

Oh... sweet memories!
Music really can take you back to long ago as quick as thought.....

Wish I could find the Barry Mann version. It was more soulful to a 16 yr old in 1966

P.J. Proby amaaazing....do you remember his Ssomawhere? Yet another favourite from Scott....we just don't get songs liek this anymore....probably just as well, I used to cry buckets to this one!!!

@Delfan1961 Thanks for the info - really interesting fact! :)

Barry Mann (who co-wrote the song with his wife, Cynthia Weil) released it as a single on Capitol Records. Mann's version peaked at #111, spending several weeks under Billboard's "Top 100", in July & August, 1966.

Perfect once again. :)

earthshatteringly brillant. the chorus nearly always gives me a heart attack. is best listened to over a glass of white wine and nursng a broken, battered and world weary heart

The incredible Scott Walker. What an amazing talent...then and now.

"u could feel his "missing of her"."

A most perfect description!
Thank you, Jasper! :)

Thanks, people! I believe this is in fact the best version! :)

This is the best version ever. It's that voice !

Beautiful song ....more beautiful voice...thank you for uploading this...

Pure delight is what I feel Guida. what a treat

all these posts up. again all the different pictures. I've never seen them before. thanks
two million!! scott why are you such a jewel?
