Ah...c'mon. It's Friday afternoon...Spring time.

We need rock n roll.

This Nike Drake stuff is for falling asleep in a field of grass. Zzzzz

Nothing like a little Nick Drake on this cloudy, melancholy afternoon.
I love Radio Paradise.   Where else can I hear a set like this? 
Thank you.

Pretty amazing that this production and song along with the vocals...sounds very relevant today. I could see this covered by Ray LaMontagne or any artist like this.

I love Nick Drake. Not because he is dead... a very sad story.
His music is special and so beautiful! It is sad he became
more famous after his dead. But he will live on through his music.
One of my favorite artists. And RP is the only station where we can hear him.
I love RP too!

Longer I listen to Nick Drake the more I'm entranced, mesmerized, impressed. Often imitated, never equalled. 9 -> 10

Nice flow this afternoon... even if just a tad dark... if it was 12 hours hence, I might open a vein...

We just got that book at the library I work at, and it looked good.

It's scary, but it's a talent, and not too many artists have it. I miss you, Nick Drake. I have some hurtful places your music never got a chance to touch...{#Notworthy}

Actually I will take it a step further, if it is loved by a lot it probably sucks! If it is loved by a discerning few, it is probably good. This song is wonderful BTW. 9

I was very pleasantly surprised to wake up this morning to this song. Absolutely beautiful, I was stunned to hear it as normally I awaken to static on KZFR after having recorded Barbara Manning's "Radio Detour" the previous night. Is this a new thing? And is this station 24/7? Either way, wow, wow, wow.

Every Nick Drake song is excellent. All songs on Pink Moon are 10's. The only problem with the album is its length.

I can't hear how that captures an English melancholy as opposed to, say, a Cleveland melancholy.  Except in Cleveland, his name would have been Nick Drakinsky.

This artist made a profound impact on me when I first heard him. Rarely does one so captivating come along; and all too often they get snatched away before their time.

I watched all the youtube videos of his unmade documentary.Very interesting interviews with friends and family.Apparently,he wasn't famous during his time because his music was "not of that era",and his live performances were not as good as his recordings.It depressed him quite a bit.What a talent!

Some debate as to whether it was accidental or not. I believe it was accidental, but there is no denying his troubled spirit.
A beautiful song.

I said it about another Nick Drake track on RP. He captures a very English melancholy. It's the angst of a repressed 1950s Middle-England upbringing, lost in literature and reverie, gazing out onto the damp English countryside on a typically grey day.
