Despite his health, he wanted all to know that he was still trying to make his fans happy and to put out his message. That is a true artist. A noble man he was...
This was a really touching note for John to go out on. He knew he was dying, but he kept doing what he loved and gave us this wonderful parting message. We miss ya, Scatman.
I am fifteen i first heard of the scat man when i was 13 i heart all his music it always brings me out of my darkest depressions. I only recently figured out he's not with us any more... ;( yeah im sorta slow. John Paul Larkin: a true artist.
@ninjaman1122 You are right about that. The first time I listen the music of Scatman John, I was suprise about that and I'm 16 years old. I listen every song of Scatman John every day and his song are giving a true message, for me that is. I wish that scatman John keep living so I can see him in person, I will be happy to listen his songs. Long live Scatman John. And I wish some teenagers can listen this song so they can understand.
This album was released on June 1, 1999, 6 months before Scatman John's passing on December 3. 1999. Although he was suffering from lung cancer for most of the recording, he still managed to get the album released.
He was a superstar! He was so popular! He was so exalted because he had flair. He was a virtuoso, was a rock idol. And everybody shout: "Come and rock me, Scatman John!"
@@EchaOmega TYT was released as a single in january 1999. So he probably recorded it In 1998 meaning he would have been able to live 1 more year. He didnt die right after this song. Not even after the album, it was released on June 1st of 1999 and he died 6 months later.
@@cheezit2989 I know i forgot about the date and etc. I put wrong info he did die after 6 months. Sad he didn't even get to see christmas. And the new century as well.
@@CryptGirl38 yes I think people got what I meant when I said "sick", we all know he had cancer but i think its something too heavy, delicate and painful to mention and remember so I choose the term sick, that applies for all type of diseases, including cancer.
its gonna sound cheesey, but 2 people are in a rush, and havnt visited scattmans world. just found this guy today, and realise my life sucked till just now :D
Everybody lets just stop talking about scatmans death and enjoy his music that is relaxing and groovy no sad moments lets just all say that he was a greath person and his music is better than modern music and he cheers us all up everyday whit his music
@ninjaman1122 It's not that Scatman John reached his peak; who knows where he would have taken his talents to. It's more that he inspires other people to strive for the distances beyond their own peaks.
long as people are remix his song and faving them downloading, buying. he'll be remember.. no talk about his death no more its kinda disrespectful in my eyes but peopel show there respectin different ways
*sigh* I like Scatman but it seems like no one else does.... it's all about rap and other stupid phads but they will never reach the peak of their music like scatman did
Yes, I'm sure this is exactly the kind of behavior that ScatMan would approve of... You need to actually LISTEN to his music before running your ignorant mouth.
Despite his health, he wanted all to know that he was still trying to make his fans happy and to put out his message. That is a true artist. A noble man he was...
"So let us never say "goodbye", but only "to be continued..." - Scatman John in his last written letter to one of his fans, 1999
Where did you find that?

Scatman... Sad... If i could i would revive him. Why does death exist??? R.I.P John Paul Larkin 1942 - 1999 its 2020 and i still remember him.
The thing that always makes me feel better when thinking about death is that some of the most beautiful things are fragile, and life is no exception.
This song makes me cry. R.I.P Scatman John. Hope your having a good time in Scatland
me too :(
1942 - 1999 💕
This was a really touching note for John to go out on. He knew he was dying, but he kept doing what he loved and gave us this wonderful parting message.
We miss ya, Scatman.
Long Live John Paul Larkin Or Scatman John. he was around my childhood, on the radio. he was awesome.
This is beautiful and so true at the same time. If you listen carefully you can hear Scatman John dying in his voice. R.I.S. Rest In Scatland.
Where?
Scatman doesn't want to hear his songs one million times, he want to listen his songs one time and to live after them
This masterpiece always brings tears to my eyes, I hope you rest in eternal peace John. Your music will live on, you touched so many of us❤️

Who else does Scat music? Or is it only Scatman John?
I love his scat, be variety is always better.

子ども向けヒーローアニメ映画のエンディングテーマのBGMにも、最高です。

He died in December 1999, so close to witness the turnover of the millennium :(

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO JOHN PAUL DONT LEAVE THIS WORLD RIP JOHN PAUL 1942-1999 57 YEARS OLD

Am I the only one weeping about the fact that his last album was called Take Your Time? And that it's mostly full of upbeat, happy songs?
listen to sorry seems to be the hardest word.. its sad
Magic 90s
He was a superstar! He was so popular! He was so exalted because he had flair. He was a virtuoso, was a rock idol. And everybody shout: "Come and rock me, Scatman John!"
Why does death always have to take the good people... We need them more here for gods sake!!!!
+sanders anderson What's worse, we don't realise how good people were untill they have left us.

When's your vacation in Scatman's World gonna end, Scatman John?
@ninjaman1122 It's not that Scatman John reached his peak; who knows where he would have taken his talents to. It's more that he inspires other people to strive for the distances beyond their own peaks.
at the end of the song it says "i will never let u go" but he has a song called "let it go" thats funny

Sounds like Resident Evil 3: Nemsis credits song.
*sigh* I like Scatman but it seems like no one else does.... it's all about rap and other stupid phads but they will never reach the peak of their music like scatman did
Yes, I'm sure this is exactly the kind of behavior that ScatMan would approve of...
