Thank you, my old friend.
Roger had one of the most most beautiful voices i've ever heard.My Mum would often play his songs when i was a young boy growing up in Liverpool. RIP Roger you're music will live on forever.
So sorry to learn about Roger’s passing. He has a huge influence on my musical journey and that of my father. Rest in peace my friend. Thanks for teaching me how to whistle! 😉
RIP
Ein toller Künstler tritt seinen letzten Weg an. Danke für die ganze schöne Musik. Viel Kraft an die Familie.
My father, who passed away a decade ago, was not a man of music in any sense. However, while busy making or fixing or arranging or putting up something, we kids would frequently hear him whistle a Whittaker tune or two. It was his happy mode.
Every time I get on the ferry from Ireland back to UK (I have a foot in both camps) my father used to burst into song of The Last Farewell. Not as good a rendition as Roger's but its a memory that stays with me. About a year ago I dropped my daughter at the airport @ 4 in the morning. Having dropped her off I put on the radio, what started playing?
The Last Farewell - What a fantastic voice you had. Powerful yet soft and gentle. My Danish Parents didn’t understand English yet they loved listening to your songs and they introduced me to your wonderful songs and I have enjoyed them immensely and they serve now as a strong reminder of my mum and my late dad. My sincere condolences to your wife and the rest of your family and all who knew and loved you. RIP Roger. 💔
Was für eine traurige Nachricht über den Tod dieses tollen Mannes. Ich bin mit seiner Musik groß geworden und höre sie heute noch gerne. Mein herzliches Beileid den Angehörigen.
LS, dear Roger,
I'm very sorry to hear that Roger Whittaker has passed away. His music has a special place in my heart, as it has in millions of other hearts. He was a wonderful singer, a skilled musician, and he will be missed dearly. Fortunately, we will always have his wonderful music and recordings to enjoy and remember him by. Rest in peace, good lad.
Es macht mich sehr traurig diese Nachricht zu lesen das uns Roger verlassen hat seine Musik hat mich seit meinen Kindheitstagen begleitet und sie über alles geliebt bei seinem Song Albany erwischte ich mich doch jedesmal beim mitsingen. Eine großartige Stimme und toller Mensch ist von uns gegangen doch seine Musik und die Erinnerung bleiben für immer.
Ruhe in Frieden lieber Roger 🌹🕯️
A voice which has been with me all of my life - RIP Roger
Farewell Roger. Rest in peace. New World in the Morning is one of my favorite albums of all time and the single one of my late Mothers favorite songs. You were a 'special kind of man'. No-one will ever surpass your whistling ability. Condolences to your family.
Many happy memories travelling by car with his music playing.
Loved his music. As a teenager I learnt to code to his songs, and to this day when I need to concentrate I still play them.
Rest in peace.
Part of my life’s soundtrack since 1975.
May he rest in peace
