Back in 2024. Such a beautiful human. Keep going people
Many years ago, I worked for a games company in Dundee and lived there for quite a while. I used to play music and playing things like open mic nights was a regular thing at the time. It's how I met people. One night, I played at a "Yellow Bar" (I forget the name it had at the time, it's changed a few times over the years). Anywho. One night I met this bloke after he played his set after me at a planned night. It wasn't busy. But this man played this song he called "My Backwards Walk" as his opener. I was transfixed. He played a few other tracks, each sang with such melancholy and sadness, anyone that was listening was enamored. Anyway we drank and chatted for hours after and for the next while he'd let me know when he was coming to Dundee and would get me a spot on the lineup for the night etc. I got to know the arrangements for a few of his songs, etc. This man wrote and performed with so much pain in his soul, but by day he was joyful and supportive. But the drink was always there. Anyone that paid any attention to him knew he was a tortured genius. It oozes out of every pore of the music he's created.
After a while the calls/messages stopped and it was simply because he'd made it. He outgrew his familiar Scottish circuit - and even the UK scene. I never heard from him again, but followed his success and loved his music.
I still watch this video every once and a while - it's the closest recording I've ever found to how he used to play it live. This planet lost a seriously beautiful individual. Thanks for those memories Scott and I'm sure there's thousands more of them out there, held vividly in the minds of people that were lucky enough to have met you.
This song made tiny changes to my earth. Thank you. I'm sorry you had to leave us early.
Theres no way Im forgetting you.
I feel like I have been almost numb for 3 years. I basically quit listening to music after Scott's passing. I am finally trying to process my grief. While i never had a one on one conversation with Scott his music has touched me more than he can ever know. I hope that wherever he is now that he is free from the pain that his music helped me deal with and I hope he knows how much he meant to all of his fans. I will never forget him.
agreed
@@herbertrichard614 you don't need to be Jacko to leave an impression. Scott spoke to the human experience, funny, earnest and heartfelt.
Manchester Orchestra does a beautiful ode to him in a cover of this. I would give it a listen.. Sometimes it just takes a spark.
Music heals, don't ever stop listening
i literally had a serious mad life experience the day the radio announced they'd found his body. emotional, deep, not fair. such a deep song
The greatest lyricist of our time.
"I'm working on erasing you... I just don't have the proper tools"
True
Having an emotionally rough week but FR saves me yet again. Thank you Scott. ❤
same, his music helps and kills me every time. im in a hole right now. hes saving me
Cheers Rob, usually tough this time of year eh? Happy New Year pal! ❤🎉
I understand your pain, I live it every day ✌️❤️
One of the best songs ever written
he really meant every note he sang....rest easy pal
I thought the same then listened to the interview where he said the older songs don't mean anything to him anymore. Thought that was compelling.
Good god… his talent was untouchable.. left a mark in us all.. RIP big guy….
I never really understood my older friends being so sad of losing Kurt. ..well I do understand them now..
They meant something to us, didn’t they?
Will never forget this guy and Frightened Rabbit, amazing performance and an amazing band. Will always come back.
Bloody love this song. Rest easy Scott.
Amen!
I just discovered all Frightened Rabbit songs and I'm freaking out!!!!!! Scott is phenomenal!!!!! I'm so freaking sad he's dead!!!
I never had the privilege of listening to him perform live, although I was at a music festival where he was booked. (I have no recollection or proof I heard their set, so I cannot count it.) Every time I go to Glasgow I listen to this song over and over and over and over and over and over. And cry.
One of, if not the best failed relationship songs. I miss you buddy-sometimes we are too close to the fire to survive it
Heartbreakingly beautiful. That gray haired man in the green jacket and glasses emanates how I feel when I hear these songs. Love his smile.
What a great comment.
Me too. I've watched this countless times and always feel like that guy looks.
Scott's music helped me through so much. He is one of the purest souls and I am grateful that I can experience his music. My backwards walk and Modern Leper are two beautiful songs of pure pain made majestic. RIP Scott 🙌
This and everything else .. before and after 🙏🏻
I'm missing this man and his exceptional skill so much. 😢
Scott, your voice, your music, your image invokes, in me, sorrow-laden tears and glorious bountiful joy. Thank you for the memories and music. Rest in the peace you so richly deserve
R.I.P. You beautiful man you felt you had to leave so you opened the door and walked through it.
But your music is so pure and honest the legacy of your music you have left behind is immense you were a beautful soul.
But you are now singing on a higher plane and I am sure that the Angels will love it as we have.
So sing sing sing you beautiful man we will meet again one day xxxx.
Beautiful words
very true indeed.
Makes me quite emotional for some reason.
He is very missed.
Listened to a bunch of stuff on CZcams by FR today and for some reason just started crying my eyes out during this one. Never met the man, but damn, we lost a good one. I'm sorry to all those who knew him and more to the many who loved him. I will try to do more for those who suffer from depression and anxiety. I promise.
Joseph McCafferty Still shook. Been balling since i heard. Depression is legit.
We can make tiny changes to earth
we still miss you, scott, every day.
Wow, I cried all the way through this :( Best version of it I have seen.
Same.
No one is on their phones videoing, all just in the moment 🤘
Didn't hear this song until yesterday... then I learned about Scott. Such beautiful lyrics, and I'm sorry that the world lost another beautiful artist. I will spread this music
RIP Scott… hope you will find what you missed down here.
I hope that you are all okay. Thank you, Scott. We love you.
This man will always live on in his music. One of the best lyricists of his generation! Much love Scotty lad x
Only got into Frightened Rabbit after Scott’s death unfortunately so I’ll never have the pleasure of experiencing their tunes live. What a beautiful song this is though, he means every word and I feel where he’s coming from having made that ‘backwards walk’ myself on many occasions and I’d still make it today if my ex had any interest. There’s no way I’m forgetting this...RIP big man
The man could write such "simple" songs that can quickly launch you back to a veeery specific time/relationship/whatever..There's such a brilliance in that.
every. single. comment section... wish the big chap couldve truly saw how adored he was and what a hole he left in millions of lives, not to mention his poor family, that news report appeal makes me sad as fuck man.
RIP Scott
Matthew Baumann RIP Scott
I'm 56 now and have always loved and passionately followed new music, good music and continue to do so. No matter how much shit music is around, and there's been alot over the past decade, there are still discoveries awaiting. (Pls check out my YT Best of 2023 Playlist). So when I encountered FR in 2008 at the age of 41 it was clear that this was a band of unique talent and songwriting craftsmanship. With every subsequent album, it was apparent it was no fluke. Unlike most bands Frightened Rabbit delivered album after album of fantastic, heart wrenching songs. Come 2018, it all took on a new meaning that none of us wanted.
In a way, it's quite beautiful to see comments from people who only discovered them/Scott after his passing but it doesnt matter in the end. We connect to the music, which is incredible in all it's arrangements, and to his lyrics. It's a combination of both. His talent was amazing. A true poet and I really believe, a genius. I was born in the late 60's and grew up on 60's music thanks to my father but still listened to new music as it occurred. I have followed every genre though every decade and loved the 70's, 80's 90's and yet FR remains one of my favourite artists, up there with 90's Radiohead and the Beatles. However, I think Scott is probably the greatest songwriter of them all. No one has written about anguish and with such eloquence as he has. I've no doubt that the audience will grow but its up to us to help spread the word. He deserved to be recognised as a true artist in his lifetime and it wasnt forthcoming. Not in the way he deserved. He's the Bowie, the Lennon of the 21st century.
We will never forget. (I highly recommend the two books released so far on Scotts work).
The entire discography was a cry for help. Telling us what was coming.
Heartbreaking loss. Still feel it.
tell me about it...
I woke up thinking about this song and probably listened to it like 20 times. Scott ♥️
Beautiful ❤. Much missed. x
You will be so missed.
Still listening to this 9-12-23 ❤❤❤
I never heard of your band until this year. I was listening to your songs and was so impressed with every album then I heard you were dead and now every song I listen to that is by you, it hits so much cos it's so honest, pure and true. I really hope you're a good place. I really do. Rest in peace Scott.
Goodnight Scott, cant believe you are gone x
I'm still grieving. I'm not sure if it will ever stop; I've never been one to process pain. He did dedicate a song to me and my fiance that one time in Edinburgh tho.
Can’t believe I just started listening to them about 6 months ago. Now, I can’t stop listening.
Rest well mate.
ive literally watched every video on youtube that has scott in it and i still feel like i dont have enough of him. i have never met this man but his death is still hurting in 2022 and i think about him more than anyone else.
I'm working on my backwards walk
Walking with no shoes or socks
And when the time rewinds to the end of May
I wish we'd never met, then met today
I'm working on my faults and cracks
Filling in the blanks and gaps
And when I write them out they don't make sense
I need you to pencil in the rest
I'm working on drawing a straight line
And I'll draw until I get one right
It's bold and dark girl, can't you see
I done drawn a line between you and me
I'm working on erasing you
Just don't have the proper tools
I get hammered, forget that you exist
There's no way I'm forgetting this
I'm working hard on walking out
Shoes keep sticking to the ground
My clothes won't let me close the door
Cause the trousers seem to love your floor
I been working on my backwards walk
There's nowhere else for me to go
Except back to you just one last time
Say yes before I change my mind
Say yes before I
You're the shit and I'm knee-deep in it
You're the shit and I'm knee-deep in it, you're
You're the shit and I'm knee-deep in it
You're the shit and I'm knee-deep in it, you're
You're the shit and I'm knee-deep in it
You're the shit and I'm knee-deep in it, you're
You're the shit and I'm knee-deep in it
You're the shit and I'm knee-deep in it, you're
What a beautiful soul you were sir
As the time rewinds to the start of May, I wish we never lost our Scott that day.
as long as there's a way to play his music he'll never be forgotten.
Love you Scott. The world is less of place without you.
Thanks, man. So much left behind. You're not forgotten.
Gone, but never forgotten. You changed my life Scotty!
One month later and I still can't listen to this without crying. It was the song that made me fall in love with this band. RIP, Scott.
I will never forget seeing them live. One of my all-time favorite bands and concerts
Cheers, Scott. So grateful for you.
There is no way I'm forgetting this
Dearly missed. Great music and what a voice!
RIP Scott you will be sadly missed by all
Rest in peace and love, Scott. Tears.. I had never seen this one before
You will be missed so much Scott. Rest in Peace.
Im still gutted. I wish I knew him. I wish I had words. He was pure.
this song always hits me so heavy. rest in peace my man, wish you were still here.

Painfully and dearly missed. Such a huge talent, I hope he is now at peace.
HOW DOES THIS NOT HAVE COMMENTS?!
I love FR.
Saw you guys in Lincoln, NE at the Bourbon Theatre in '13. It was one of the best nights of my life.
Thank you, FR; thank you, Bandstand Busking.
Rest easy brother. Forever in our hearts.
I think I’ve got something in my eye 😢 RIP Scott. Awesome music that I’ll always have on my playlist
See frightened rabbit support biffy at Royal Albert Hall in London was a fan instantly sadly only saw them once more in Norwich gutted Rip Scott
Happy birthday, Scott. You amazing man. 🖤
Just heard this song for the first time last month from Death Cab For Cutie’s spotify cover of it. Truly beautiful song.
Didn't expect to wake up to a headline with your name in it
Especially not that one.
“Floating in the Forth” acquired a whole new, all-to-real meaning
i miss you scott. your music lives on, but you’re still missed. rest peacefully
This still gives me a lump in my throat. Thank you for everything Scott
Love you Scott
Just an incredible song. RIP Scott.
Miss this man so fucking much.
Miss you Scott, still can't believe you're gone 🖤
Still hurts...
We've lost one of the best.
the best.
God, if this doesn’t perfectly sum up my relationship with my ex fiancé.... heartbreaking. Miss your music Scott, you were a genius. RIP.
Scott was amazing.
You will live forever.
Who else is here because of Sarah Silvermans comment on "history of swear words"?
This song is beautiful.
Àqq
I hope you listened to more of Scott's music 💗 He was an amazing artist
i miss you scott
Damnit.
" I wish we had never met and met today."
❤
I wish we'd never met, then met today ❤
@@BenjaminEdwards1986 Thank you for the correction. Though, I still like my misreading.
@@stephenmckenna4402 no worries
@@BenjaminEdwards1986 I also like the actual, correct, reading of the line. Though, their meanings are very different. Take care.
I got an ambulance. But I still get it. Life hurts sometimes. Shit happens. You get lost in the darkness. Sometimes the light at the end of the tunnel goes out.
RIP Scott, I hope you have found your peace.
😢😢😢 will be missed
Please come home safe Scott.
Sarah McCrossan he’s home now, wherever that is ❤️
😢
still the best
It is what it is!!! RIP scott
Rest well, Scott. Love you.
Scott, i miss you man
It was awesome to be there and look forward to seeing the rest of the videos from the session
There's nowhere else for me to go / except back to you just one last time...
Sigh....I'm really missing you Scott.
Sublime.
What I would give to have been there.
Also, check on your friends
