Sad but so glad I discovered him. Got listening to him when my parents and older folk had cassettes of his music. Listening in car on long journey's so his voice and songs were imprinted on my early years. I got into heavy metal, rock and all that in late 70's and early 80's but remained listening to and buying his music throughout. I still play him in car and at home and I'm now in mid 50's. Always been there in my life's soundtrack. Never met or saw him live but on record he sounded such a lovely man. Thank you for your Music Roger. RIP my friend xx

I am beyond sorry to hear this news. I remember listening as a child to "Durham Town" and discovering that a song could make you smile and cry at the same time. I hope that a new generation of people will come to appreciate his music. I am listening to "I don't believe in If anymore" as I type this!

Die Nachricht vom seinem Tod berührt mich sehr. Ich liebe seine Songs und seine Stimme.
Zu seinen Songs habe ich vor 35 Jahren geheiratet und wenn ich mich mal nicht so gut fühle, heilen sie meine Seele.
Er wird mit seinen Liedern in meinem Herzen weiter leben und ich denke, dass es sehr vielen Menschen so geht.
Ich bin dankbar und wünsche seinen Angehörigen viel Kraft mit ihrem Verlust umgehen zu können.
Liebe Grüße 🙏🏻

This feels like a personal loss. I was privileged to see Roger in person twice. To enjoy his humor, his velvety voice, his international talent. A beautiful person and a matchless performer. Rest in peace.

Thank you for blessing the world with music that has given me peaceful moments since I was a teenager. I remember a trip to Atlanta in 1975 where it was mentioned Roger Whittaker had just appeared in concert there and had been a big hit. Your music will always be my "go to" for the big and little moments in life. Sing on, Mr. Whittaker!

I was brought up listening to Roger and was still listening through my teens in the eighties and now that I am 62. The wonderful rich timbre of his voice has comforted and raised me up so many times. New World in The Morning always has me smiling and feeling cheerful, no matter my mood. Thank you Roger, for a lifetime of beautiful songs, music and singing….you will be remembered forever by the legacy of your music. Thinking of your family, may they find peace in how much you were loved by us all. A truly lovely, gifted man. Rest in peace.

Admired his singing and whistling ability. When on TV he reminded me of better times and was pleased to have the connection of attending the same University ie Bangor North Wales and studied in the same building with some of the same tutors.

R.I.P Roger - many condolences to your friends and Family.
I have been a fan for about 50 years. I was lucky enough to see him live with Mum and Dad who both loved him, his music was the only music we could agree on! I swear he looked straight at me and smiled whilst I was singing along!
River Lady was played at my mum’s funeral. Thank you for the music sir! X
