Walker, Scott - Tilt Lyrics
He was so strong
he was so bold
When they made him
If he heads this way
when the moon is slow
Come over and pray
they'll turn the buffalo
they'll turn the buffalo
in the shag of his stomach
Slide around his eye
with your love in tow
If he heads this way
don't you say hello
Get out of the way
they'll turn the buffalo
they'll turn the buffalo
Our town our town
do love a stampede
Stampede by my jacket
in the park
Someday I'll
pick it up
look for the
label and whisper
Tilt
ain't got no no no
Tilt
got none at all
Tilt
ain't got no no no
A mother waits
as still as
the moonlight
Standing in
long grass
with her
cold cold nose
What she feels so deep
she will never show
Baby don't you weep
they'll turn the buffalo
they'll turn the buffalo
Our town our town
do love a stampede
Stampede by my old
jacket in the park
Someday
I'll pick it up
look for the
maker and whisper
Tilt
ain't got no no no
Tilt got none at all
Tilt
ain't got no no no
not at all

Walker, Scott Tilt Comments
What a great sound
I hear Scott's beautiful voice every time I listen to David Sylvian. And vice versa.
2 great artists. R.I.P Scott.
Beautiful man beautiful voice ❤️ RIP Scott 💔 Outstanding creator of sound - we’re still listening 😢👏
Very delicate...very!
Didn't this guy also serve in political office?
S Boman No that was someone else!
speechless...
Great album, but perhaps the most impenetratable I've ever owned. I remember pondering if this title track would have been the closest thing on here to a single!
When they made mould they broke the Scott Walker
The most powerful and expressive voice in my 60 years and one of my largest influences , I'll miss you and your music. But then again you've always been bigger than life, RIP Scott Walker, see you soon.
Sorry https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2019/04/22/walk-a22.html
do you know something
So sad so changed RIP
Scott made it too easy to misunderstand him, he did not insist we listen, he did not insist we understand his oblique angles, his deep voice was camouflage for a unique soul
right ya fawning fucks.....WHATS THE SONG ABOUT?????
SW truly changed the way I listen and perceive. I cherish his work.
I can’t believe after 40 plus years on this planet I had not heard of him till last week. A baritone voice like this is a rarity, this reminds me of Peter Steele, I know I should be saying that in reverse but seriously Indid not know Scott Walker existed until a week ago.
This voice is amazing! He was so underrated. RIP!
When they made you , they broke the mould , goodbye you absolute Genius , xx
The other dimensions of the music. Scott walker the titan of the experimental music 30 century man
⚖️💔💙👁️📈🛐🎙️🖤💥Thanks⚛️
Masterpiece. It's where he truly reinvent his musical approach and from then on he is an artist more like an Edward Munch, a painter rather than a singer like Tom Jones, even if his story belong to popular music I guess..
Farewell...
A Genius.
Your songs will become a star in the musical firmament and you will shine eternally.
When I first met Scott Walker during the recording of "Tilt" my only knowledge of his work was the Walker Brothers era tunes, which my mum played a lot. Talking with him daily for almost a month over dinner was a pleasure and a learning experience I will always treasure. He could see sound as colours and regarded his music as a work of art where all the colours come together to create something magical. To be fair this was not without problems, for those working with him to put in to practise, I remember vividly a studio engineer who I wont name come up to the studio bar and bash his head into it a few times, complaining "he wants the cymbals to sound more orange..... wtf. A surreal learning curve :)
It was only after the album was released I appreciated him as an artist as well as a being the decent guy I had spent time with.
Scott Walker RIP xx
So he was a synaesthete, that would help to explain his vivid audiovisual style. Thanks for sharing. Fascinating!
Gwen Ever oh pray tell how did this happen? Were you a recording engineer who happened to find yourself in the unique situation of working with Mr. Walker?
how lucky you were to work with such a marvel of creative sound and vision. How I envy your privilege. how much he is going to missed ... no one will be able to follow his imagination and perfection. RIP beautiful man xx
Gwen Ever lucky lucky you. A privilege indeed. He is missed, even by those who only knew him via music and media.
What a fantastic privilege to work with Scott and also have dinner with him. Having loved his voice since the 60s and also liking and appreciating his more recent works I would have loved to discuss it all with him, What an opportunity you had,
WoW - if I didn't;t know the date of release I would belief it's a recent track... Awesome sound !!
Scott Walker - criminally neglected. Hopefully now he will get his proper respect. Listening to him I can hear his influence on so many who followed. What a unique awesome artist. RIP
Goodbye to a true artists and a wonderful person. Very sad today.xxx
I know...I celebrated my 50th birthday. 12 days later I mourned the loss of one of the most unique and creative musicians who ever lived. 🧡💚💙💜🧡💚💙💜
Sad news... Scott Walker will play now with Bowie and Hollis...
Tilt and Drift changed my world..... a rare pearl of a man
♥♥♥
Love tilt❤️ it influenced the dark goth jazzy soundtrack band I was in in the 90s rip Scott
A voyager in the world of dreams. Farewell Captain. "His voice is like a cathedral in the sunset"
Rip 🙏
RIP Scott Walker...
RIP Scott.
😪 RIP I miss you already !
Rip Scott
So under rated. RIP
He certainly wasn't underrated by his musician peers. People like David Bowie, Thom Yorke, Marc Almond and many others rated him very highly.
Bless you cosmic man. RIP. Thank you!
I saw that he died, not long after my birthday. RIP to a true original.
Who's on deep, distorted, guitar solo?
Andrea Prodan David Rhodes. Known for his work with Peter Gabriel.
Neale Scott Excelent stuff. Thanks for replying!
Even darker than Johnny. Cash, that is.
Man I love Scott's music and his fans so much, I always get such profound insights reading other people's comments on his work. The way he conjures up an atmosphere is nearly unmatched in modern music.
Still being school by SW lyrics 24 years later. - 'Stampede
by my old jacket in the park Someday I'll pick it up
look for the maker and whisper' - communication is direction.
once an ex pat always an ex pat....
I’ve calmed down a bit now,,only one word,,GENIUS 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I’m speechless,! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇬🇧
nite flights rocks like no other - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9uIHjbt8zw
Headphones required! Holy shit this is what real ASMR is!... I feel that Walker and Bowie crossed paths on this mind blower of a track! Pooof <-- That's the sound of my brain exploding.
I wish the world would understand how great Scott's music is.
yeah...and just what is it, it's quite beyond words, beyond even sound, man!

When they made Scott Walker they broke the mould.
Fan Theory: Scott Walker is “Tilt,” the lost Pop Country persona from 70s-era Scott... ala Bowie’s Duke... this time with 90s technology and an inversion of almost everything about 70s-era Scott Walker and Walker Brothers records. To awesome effect.
They broke Bob Mould?
@Marcus Watt only one way to fall! mould roulz!
I suspect that the mould was already broken. How's Florian by the way?
tinfoilhatter m
not at all..!
...is this abstract music...
...would you rather be rich or wise?
avant garde music
avant-*hard*!
its not abba, thats for sure.....and not bowie, tough he loved walker very much. for me,like nico, only for special moods....
... is this an abstract question? ...
I fucking love this track so much!
I like the 'bad trip' sound to this.
,,,yeah...like too much diphenhydramine--don't do it!
haha- yeah, i read that some place...
full tilt boogie.
+cosmicdrifter287 no not at all....oh guttnono!
I keep seeing endless Walker/Bowie comparisons, so I had to come see if I could understand what it was about.
I can hear the similarities in their voices. Bowie does a certain low voice sometimes and perhaps he's channeling this. I can really, really hear "Heat" from _The Next Day_ as being a Scott Walker pastiche now.
Well David Bowie has always been very influenced by Scott Walker, just like he was always very influenced by Syd Barrett. Syd Barrett and David Bowie are very very different, but Barrett is still a staple in Bowie's influences just like Scott. Bowie's music has always been influenced by the "auteur" musicians of whatever given decade. You know like the Nick Drakes, Tom Waitses, or the Jeff Buckleys.
Bowie even produced the documentary on Walker "30 century man"
the song that got me into Scott Walker. Still a favourite.
I like this guy. He sings like the Cowardly Lion.
oops hey! what a classic!
Cool drum :Ian Thomas...Guitar:David Rhodes :)
that snare drum is pretty tough...what caught my ear,this listen,was that bass!
at the end,is that a low 'b' or even a low 'a' or somethin'....it's like the lowest note ever!
@tinfoilhatter That might just be the wonderfully musical session player John Giblin.
hey! who's that on that loud guitar,and that cool drum track,right?
tinfoilhatter David Rhodes.
So much deeper . . .
I like both this and Lady Gaga. A person's taste in music isn't exclusive to only certain types.
I just have some disappointment due to the fact that the last comment came on before 11 months!!!...why?
Yes!..geniuses in fashion models...(kiddin')
There is no "darker" side of a face that can see in the dark...I hide the face of things to come...after all,Life has been revealing itself to the owners of the Word.........(all I could type to put myself inside the feeling of this song)
You typed yourself inside it very well,lol.
When and where do you listen to this. I am genuinely interested. It definitely has some strange appeal but I can only imagine listening to it in a darkened room or in the bath. Oh and what the Fu** is it about.

Brilliant
OMFG! I LOVE this track,i know this whole track is 5:12 but all you fans of the movie Blade runner with Harison Ford , play this track right at 3:54 into the track right at the sceene in the start of the movie where the camera is taking you through the city, its awesome! Thank you Scott i love your music its such a breath of fresh air i hope you live long and make music even after you die.
Are you implying that Lady Gaga fans are stupid? Surely you gest! They're all geniuses. Just kidding.
Such a creepy track... I absolutely love it.
Listening to this at night makes me paranoid.
@beelzabubba A must have !
Work of art, from every angle.
Syd Barrett and Nick Drake are gone. Scott -- don't you dare even think of leaving. I look forward to everything you create. As does...the majority of the people posting here.
thank god theres still some intelligence ,passion,depth,power left in music.... sod lady gaga and the x factor rubbish, give me scott's challenging music anyday!
@BonzaiBillie1 I totally agree although I must say it's not for everyone. I can't imagine a Lady Gaga fan getting enthusiastic about this sort of music!
lyons:
Oh, come on---I like Lady Gaga, and I like weird experimental strange
music like this. You don't have to not like one to appreciate the other.
i can feel his voice deep inside me ....
I saw a beautiful pic of a buffalo this morning and at the moment I saw it, Scott's voice singing "he'll turn the buffalo, he'll turn the buffalo" popped right into my head. I think I also felt it inside me.
one of the most masterful, challenging, elegant, beautiful, haunting, full albums ever made. if you have the patience to allow this music to get inside you... what a gift it becomes
i made this video long time ago.i have to look at my photo archive.Then i can send you some photos of Scott Walker by e-mail...
Do it now
check out 30 Century Man DVD... documentary of Scott Walker
Yes!it is the real music!!!
hell yeah!!!!
now THIS is music!
