The lyrics.

Just listened to Scott 3.

What a creamy delicious voice.

I own and love Scott 3 and 4. However, I wish he reserved all the Jacques Brel covers for a dedicated Jacques Brel tribute album, as it hampered my enjoyment of Scott 3 (my copy has the last few tracks removed).

The stuff he released from the '90s onwards was more interesting than essential to me.

Doesn’t get to me his lyrics are often more impenetrable than Edith Sitwell’s. That voice manages to seduce me almost against my ‘better judgement'.
One of the joys of sites such as MusicBanter is being introduced to and seduced by music I’d otherwise stay well away from.

Like Faulkner I always feel like if someone else tried anything like this we'd all go "That's ****." Mind you, I like it. It feels like Nick Cave fronts Frank Zappa's band. But still, I don't know if anyone else could really pull something like Funeral Tango

There's a need to sleep
In the shag of his stomach
Slide around his eye
