With permission from Gene Pitney/P.J. Proby aficionados! High melodrama in this Cynthia Weil/Barry Mann number, from Scott's solo debut "Scott" (1967).
I've been listening to Scott Walker since the mid - sixties and now over fifty years later when ever I feel blue and I play this song it breaks my heart, more now than when I was a young woman. I was Angelica and Scott Walker was the English speaking Jacques Brel chanson.
@bob-yt8co I've been listening to him since 1965 when the Walker Brothers came to the UK and love all his work including Tilt, Drift, Bisch Bosch and all his film work. Not forgetting his collaborations with other artists. He was a true genius.
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.
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.
50+ years ago Gus Amann who owned a bar around 20th and Cleveland in Milwaukee Wi, had this song on his Juke Box and when ever this song would play he would turn he Juke box up from behind the bar and sing along with this song, .... and he and the recorded song sounded really good togeather.
As a goth, I got into his music because he was somewhat of a god of goth music in the 90s because of his album Tilt. But I've always loved baroque pop and 60s pop in general so somehow this has become my favorite Scott Walker song haha
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
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!!
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 ......
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.
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....
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.
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.
@@charmaineprince9313 Agree 100% Thanks for replying Its odd but years ago i was utterly convinced that the American guitarist Randy Rhodes was Scotts son, no matter which way you view him & despite his gorgeous long hair Facially hes Scotts image! The age was right, i thought Randy had just changed his surname so as not to succeed on the back of his father, Scott Whereas Scott was 6ft 4ins Randy was tiny, but one of the best rock guitarists ive seen or heard He played with Black Sabbath singer Ozzie Osborne's band Blizzard & it looked like he was heading for a huge success & brilliance but was very sadly taken from this world in a plane crash, he was still in his 20's There are some good documentaries about Randy Rhodes worth watching, even if You dont like heavy rock music Just to see how much he looks like Scott & his mastery of as many instruments you could think of Such a waste of a multi talented musician, personality, so kind & humble & his looks were gorgeous So sad. 👧🇬🇧 PS forgot to say, Randy was not Scotts son, Scott just had one child, a daughter, Leigh Plus a grand daughter Emmy Leigh
Hi there. I've just watched a couple of you tubes about Randy Rhords on your suggestion, a very talented young man no question. Such a cruel and untimely death. Must admit heavy metal isn't my thing. But I enjoyed what I saw. Good looking too, had some of Scott's looks. But Scott still has the edge. Thanks for the info. Enjoy life.xx
@@charmaineprince9313 Oh yes, there was no one like Scott, my bedroom walls even my ceiling were covered with Scott & Walker Brothers pictures! I once had the chance to meet all of the Walker Brothers in 1965 when they were appearing in my Home city of Newcastle upon Tyne in the far north of England They were playing at the large cinema that my best friends dad managed & i did go & see them there ( i say seeing because you couldnt hear a word they sang as the screaming of teenage girls drowned everything out !) After they left the stage & my ears felt like they were stuffed with cottonwool, Frans dad asked us if we'd like to meet them I felt such conflict within, i loved Scott so desparately & not just his looks but his torchured soul & the thought of me going in to meet him & knowing he'd be thinking " oh Lord little school girls all giggly & shy" I couldn't bare this, i couldnt see his eyes & know what he'd be thinking What i felt was 100% real & genuine, ok i was 12 & a half & quite tall but i still looked a schoolgirl So i went with Fran along the backstage corridor & in she went but i could not! I pressed myself close to the wall outside the dressing room, as tears poured down my face, so near yet so far away If only id been 18yrs or so, well i could dream, who knew what could happen at least i would have been seen as a woman I quickly snooped round the doorframe to see if i could see anything & i saw some very very long denim clad, skin tight, legs stretched out just feet from the entrance, the visible hand held the neck of a whisky bottle I could hear the deep bass rumble of American voices & laughter Then i fled Couldnt take any more, i hid in the upstairs foyer where i called my dad to pick me up. So so long ago, but i still remember how i felt then & feel so sad for my little self & fully understand it all The body of a child but the heart of a woman. Poor little me back then Im pleased i didnt see him actually, the fantasy image was still mine & not spoilt by seeing the look in Scotts eyes & knowing id been right as he went along with the managers little schoolgirl daughter & her pal. Pleased you thought Randy was good, everyone said what a lovely person he was, very un rockstar like & genuine in his affections & helped any young talent to get on Poor Ozzie Osborne was utterly devasted by Randys death, right up to today he says he misses him so badly & has never met a kinder humble person as him in all of rock guitar history So i shall leave here, so nice to connect to long term fans of Scott, i still play his music on a weekly basis & think back to almost 2 years ago when i woke to the news of Scotts death & cried all day, playing non stop Scott music ( sorry but his music just prior to his Tilt period, after that i only played his early stuff) Stay cool, enjoy every day, smile & think good happy thoughts esp a young Scott singing Angelica or Worlds Strongest Man, or In My Room, Amsterdam, No Regrets, Mathilda, Copenhagen, Montague Terrace in Blue.. wonderful 🎶🎵💖💓💘🕶😢😢🍃
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!!!
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!
I have been listening since I was 14 in 1965 and have every record up to his work with Sunn O))) all magnificent. I know there are so many of us females who have followed him right through his life and will continue to listen for the rest of our lives.
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?
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.
I've been listening to Scott Walker since the mid - sixties and now over fifty years later when ever I feel blue and I play this song it breaks my heart, more now than when I was a young woman. I was Angelica and Scott Walker was the English speaking Jacques Brel chanson.
Absolutely .
I would like to know what someone who listened to his music since the 60s thinks of Tilt and Bisch Bosch
Let's just say different @@yt8co
@bob-yt8co I've been listening to him since 1965 when the Walker Brothers came to the UK and love all his work including Tilt, Drift, Bisch Bosch and all his film work. Not forgetting his collaborations with other artists. He was a true genius.
スコットとは私が高校3年生の時知り合いました。ビートルズとも違うスコットの甘い声とカッコ良さにすぐ夢中になりました。日本武道館の公演にも行きました。とても素晴らしかったです。それが今は宝です。レコードも毎日刷りきれるほど聞きました。亡くなったと知った時はショックでした。私の青春のすべてでした。スコットありがとう‼️本当に素敵な方でした。今でも聞いています。
Through headphones you hear the full complexity of the orchestration - so rich and beautiful...
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.
My Gosh!! I am 53 years old, and this is the first time ever I hear this song! This made my day,....my year!!! 😳❤️🤗👌
hello friend,listen version Roy Hamilton please....
Angelica, I love your beautiful name.
Er war so schön mit ebensolcher Stimme😊
Sein perfektes Profil.❤❤❤❤❤
What a loss, such a talented man who brought emotions right to the fore. God Bless your lovely soul Scott Walker. xx
Never be another singer like him
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
Scott Walker, so much talent, incomparable voice, no one can match his amazing voice, will listen to you forever, sadly missed.
A haunting voice that is hard to forget. Simply.... beautiful.
The perfect man with the perfect voice. Rest in peace singing with the angels Scott💔💔💔
I am so sad thinking what an incredible 💔 talent we have lost. I will listen to Scott sing forever.
How I love and miss this man.
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.
The incredible Scott Walker. What an amazing talent...then and now.
This is the best version ever. It's that voice !
lısten roy hamılton pls
@@continental899 Roy does a great version. I just prefer Scotts voice.
always reminds me off my dear departed angel makes me cry everytime superbly sung by the incomparable scott walker
He had it all! So many wonderful songs with that special voice. R.I.P. (Return If Possible), Scott!
If he only could.xxxxx
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".
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
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.
Beautiful man beautiful voice ❤️ RIP Scott 💔 There will never be another Spring😢
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.
What a happy wife.But she deserves your everlasting love as this, I guess.
I love this version the best.lovely Scott walker.xx💗💗
How I imagine God's voice.
50+ years ago Gus Amann who owned a bar around 20th and Cleveland in Milwaukee Wi, had this song on his Juke Box and when ever this song would play he would turn he Juke box up from behind the bar and sing along with this song, .... and he and the recorded song sounded really good togeather.
Thanks, people! I believe this is in fact the best version! :)
Absolutely glorious voice of the magnificent Scott Walker. Beautiful song sung with passion.
Absolutely amazing scott the best singing voice in the world xx
What a beautiful 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.
もう 始めて聴いた時から このlave song の 虜です。
楽譜起こしまで しました。
彼の深い 重量感ある 美しい声と 表現力 何オクターブあるのだろうか? という音域の広さ 何もかもが 私は 大好き💕
キャサリンキャサリンさんの紹介で、この曲を初めて聴いた時から、精神の安らぎを感じます。全体に流れる音楽は、映画のスクリーンに流れてくるようですね~そして「アンジェリーーカーー」との呼び声が、又映画の中の場面の一部をきいてるような気がします。
@@matikoyuki ちゃま スコットに会いに来てくれてありがとうございます😊 アンジェリカって 他の方も 歌っているんですが 私には スコットが 1番❣️
この美声で 呼ばれたら 幸せよね。
As a goth, I got into his music because he was somewhat of a god of goth music in the 90s because of his album Tilt. But I've always loved baroque pop and 60s pop in general so somehow this has become my favorite Scott Walker song haha
Scott Walker and Gary Puckett. Two of the best singers of the 60's. Beautiful version.
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
Love this guys voice, so talented. Thanks I wanted to hear this beautiful song again. Thanks pal
This is how it should be sung Perfection
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
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!!
My all time favorite male singer
短かった(泣)安らかに!青春の喜び!だった!(cry)
I used to hear this beautiful sad song many years ago and now with the help of several friends I have rediscovered it again.
This song is so beautiful, great Scott!
The guy has a terrific voice ,no need to put instrument on his voice,a guitar or piano are enough.
Yes, Happy Birthday, Scott - 68 years of dedication to your art.
Oh... sweet memories!
Music really can take you back to long ago as quick as thought.....
Absolute nº 1. Death can nothing against this.
Fantastic track from debut solo album - intro is JS Bach like - great and most underated voice from 60's
Simply gorgeous song and so beautifully sung of course xxx
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 ......
One of Scott's GREATS! More. More. More
Perfektes Profil,😊😊😊 perfekte Stimme.
Er war eine Schönheit.❤
I have just spoken to Angelica // a lovely song// Scott so very special
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.
Wasn’t Roy Hamilton’s version the original?
"u could feel his "missing of her"."
A most perfect description!
Thank you, Jasper! :)
JUST SO LOVELY
Beautiful. Speaks to the mistakes I have made.
my favourite from times gone but not forgotten
This is beautiful

Immortal singer a great one from the past
It's so nice to hear someone that can sing these days.
Very nice.
Haunting!
Fabulous voice, RIP SCott!!
Thank you for sharing this song.
Thank you guidofski! You beautiful soul. Words cannot describe the beauty of his voice, speechless.
That voice. A fine cigar. Cadbury chocolate. 18 yr old Scotch. I love it.
Aww shit, Guidofski, some of the photos of Scott on this song are so so beautiful. He should never have been allowed to grow old & die, never.
He was still gorgeously handsome right up till the end. Good genes I guess.

Agree 100%
Thanks for replying
Its odd but years ago i was utterly convinced that the American guitarist
Randy Rhodes was Scotts son, no matter which way you view him & despite his gorgeous long hair
Facially hes Scotts image!
The age was right, i thought Randy had just changed his surname so as not to succeed on the back of his father, Scott
Whereas Scott was 6ft 4ins Randy was tiny, but one of the best rock guitarists ive seen or heard
He played with Black Sabbath singer Ozzie Osborne's band
Blizzard & it looked like he was heading for a huge success & brilliance but was very sadly taken from this world in a plane crash, he was still in his 20's
There are some good documentaries about Randy Rhodes worth watching, even if
You dont like heavy rock music
Just to see how much he looks like Scott & his mastery of as many instruments you could think of
Such a waste of a multi talented musician, personality, so kind & humble & his looks were gorgeous
So sad.
👧🇬🇧
PS forgot to say, Randy was not Scotts son, Scott just had one child, a daughter, Leigh
Plus a grand daughter
Emmy Leigh

Thank you for sharing. I can imagine how you felt as a young girl, so near, so far.
Beautiful song ....more beautiful voice...thank you for uploading this...
A very emotional rendition of Angelica by Scoot Walker.
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.
so good
What a gorgeous voice, great singer
*Happy Birthday, Scotty* ♥
Wow that was good love the production and the fade out,just wonderful.
The best
@guidofski
One of the kind of songs you could hear over & over

Love this song . Not because it’s my name or anything
Perfect once again. :)
Fabulous!
Beautiful!!! Going to put it on Facebook!!
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!

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 ??
a danc e... with you ...... the memory ... I have ... of you ...
YOU ARE NOT WEIRD AS THIS IS SUPER MUSIC OF ITS TIME, RELEVANT IN 2012
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?
Its an interesting song, there are like 5 sections it seems before it repeats
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.
They are as different as Mahler and tom jones...
Most singers who look at the camera seem somehow corny, but not Scott. Never Scott.
That VOICE , chickenskin, only 1, just like UB40 , the same feelings.
My earlier comment about the funniest ad that I have seen for months is for Mr Bergman's $$ add!.
Wish I could find the Barry Mann version. It was more soulful to a 16 yr old in 1966
Listen to Frankie Stevens version. A bass baritone, from NZ. Awesome.
