Whyyyy do they call him Scott Walker?
If he gets into car, does that make him Scott Driver?

>>74860041
kek

>>74860041
no, it does not

>>74859101

He was Bowie's idol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V01oQ_BsX00

>>74859101
Unironically yes. Although that isn't dissing Bowie at all (who was also quite fine.) After all - there is only one 30th Century Man.

>>74859101
At what stage does one realize that Scott Walker is just discount Jacques Brel?

Heat, the final song on The Next Day (Bowie's penultimate album) could be considered an homage to late-period Scott Walker; it's done very much in his style, lyrically and musically. It also demonstrates the differences between the two artists: Bowie was experimental but he always orientated himself toward an audience. Scott Walker is venturing out towards god knows what. You can trail after him if you want.

>>74861050
Interesting recommendation, although he hasn't made avant-garde music in his later career. A good site for translations?

>>74861050
only the first two albums are like that

>>74860014
this. Walker was his idol.

>>74859101
I'm a huge fan of his early solo career, Scott 3 and 4 are extremely touching and romantic albums, I'm very fond of them. can't really into his avant garde stuff but on him for making something new and different instead of just resting on his laurels.

>>74859101
Why can't I like both
>>74859135
It's Raining Today is one of my favourite songs of all time
>>74861050
I don't speaking belgianese why can't I just listen to Scott Walker
>>74861166
lol that was my first thought when I head Heat. Bowie also did a (terrible) cover of Nite Flites on Black Tie White Noise

>>74861050
The stage right before you realize that Brel's music was largely the creation of two other people (Gérard Jouannest and Francois Rauber to be exact.)

>>74860041
very good

>>74859101
brian eno>both

>>74861803
Ever seen the 30 century man documentary? Bowie and Eno both spend the entire time blabbering about how Scott is the greatest thing to happen to modern music. I'm not OP, but Scott blows both of them out of the water.

Very happy with all the Scott threads recently.

Now I'm preparing for the daily thread where someone posts a Scott album and says "i dont get it lol"

>>74861960
If only he'd release something like Tilt and the Drift again.

>>74862301
yes!!

>>74862329
did you listen to Bish Bosch and Soused? both pretty much expand on the same sound.

hopefully scott still has at least one more album left in him

>tfw it still freaks you out after multiple listens

>>74862421
I have, but it wasn't as caustic as the other two. His vocals are impeccable, even for a 70 year old. It's a shame he's old now.

>>74862451
The Drift was the most intensive, caustic and anti-human album I've ever listened to. I was so overwhelmed that it left me grasping for air after listening to it. I'm not sure if I'm willing to experience that ever again.

Childhood is idolizing Scott Walker
