As a father, I can’t imagine losing my Son way too early. Nick was such a beautiful and soulful young man. I cry whenever I hear his songs. One part for the Parent. One part for the Talent.
I'm one of them. Listened to his 3 albums soon after and was amazed at his incredible talent. So sad he didn't live to see how many love his music now.
Pink moon is a sign that something bad is going to happen. Nick Drakewas very superstitious and had severe depression and sadly died of an over dose in the early 70s Probably why his music has so much emotion. He only ever did 3 albums, check them out. He was a genius.
Awwwwwwww!!! Now I’ve reached my heart! Nick’s music is incredible!!!! Try Northern Sky And At The Chime of a City Clock!!! Bravo for bein ahead of those reactors I listen to! ❤️
I’d never encountered his music until a few years ago when Brad Pitt, of all people, made a radio documentary about him (apparently his favourite artist). You won’t regret listening to more Nick Drake. Northern Sky is my favourite of his.
His songs are often short, little poetic treasure boxes. Check out Day is Done, From The Morning, Northern Sky, One of These Things First, and Hazey Jane l & ll So many more... Sadly Nick died young and in obscurity. He’s the greatest posthumously famous musician in history. His first hit was I believe 24 years after his passing. Unreal!
The whole Five Leaves Left album is AMAZING. Especially when you listen to each song > 10 times... it's the kind of music you can easily underappreciate if you only listen to it once. There are a lot of incredible nuances in each track + the absence of electric guitars and other "noisy" instruments makes these songs so... fragile.
One of my best friends is a professional musician in Austin, Texas. He turned me onto Nick Drake about 15 years ago. Dude was an amazing talent who died way too young. There's a great comp called An Introduction To Nick Drake which has all of his essential songs.
I don't think I have ever heard this song before and I don't recognize the gentleman's name. His voice is so relaxing and unique, I think once heard never forgot. It was very short which is a great shame, I was really enjoying myself listening. Jayvee you could have listened to more as well, I could see by your reactions you were as into the song as I was. You are a true lover of music, you have tried and listened to songs of different eras and types and just simply enjoyed. Thank you for being so open and honest. Take care and stay safe please my friend, love and hugs to all Mary-Ellen UK
Great choice! Nick Drake was an amazing artist that experienced very little fame during his short life. Would recommend checking out River Man, Things Behind The Sun, One of These Things First, and Way to Blue. Happy listening!
Every time I see people react to my favorite artists and songs and have positive things to say about them I get so happy because more and more people have the opportunity to discover so much amazing music
Great choice! I really hope you listen to Van Morrison soon - Into The Mystic, or Moondance are great to start with - you definitely owe it to yourself to experience him
So happy you reacted to this, thank you. Which Will and From The Morning are a couple of other really good ones, though you really can’t go wrong with any of his music.
Oh! Nick Drake! How did I miss this reaction?! "One of these things first" will be a great song to react to as well! Loved listening to the whole album on a Sunday morning!
Black eye dog might be my favorite. I believe it was the last song he recorded before he passed away. Little known fact Heath ledger was obsessed with this guy up to the point of his death. He’s the king muse of the troubled souls.
2min and 4 secs of absolute genius. Pink Moon, one of the finest and shortest songs ever written. Maybe 'Saturday Sun' from Five leaves left runs a close second!
@@BelleNewman In fact, I think all 3 albums are good. Each one has its highlights and merits. Think I will play all three in chronological order this evening. Couldn't think of a better way to get through 'Lockdown'. Regards Stanley.
I know this was forever ago, but you should revisit Drake. His songs do tend to be short, and beautiful. My favorite by him is Road...I just love thr guitar work in it.
Acts of the apostles chapter 2, true way 2 blue, all coming together, every language, under the son, which nick drake s Lyrically wrote 2 perfection , a very educated humble man!!! Joel 2 and acts 2 connect pink moon nick wrote about, stages of the blood moon
Hi.you might want to check out Nick Drake once to be, this is another hidden gem..hope you enjoy it.oh and if you love music consider a listen to a listen to one the most beautiful pieces of music written.a song titled Haja o que Houver by Madredeus.
LERV Nick Drake! Way To Blue (both versions) Riverman, From The Morning and Northern Sky are also killer tracks! Discovered Nick a couple years ago. Pink Moon is a reference to a blood moon. An omen signifying the end of the world.
The Moon Brings up everything to the surface ... Energy Wise... emotionally...x I think Nick Drake had more shit on his plate than he could handle.. Bless his heart 💓🙏 an absolute Legand and Original 💓🤘
Next 2Pac song you do should checkout one of his less popular songs like. You Can Be touched. Road to glory. Still I Rise (original feat outlaws) Krazy Feat Bad AZZ Dumpin Feat Carl Thomas Hussein Fatal
Yeah man, less is more with Nick. Short and sweet. He was a sensitive, shy lad by all accounts. His song "Horn" on his last album had words, but he was too depressed to sing them.
You pegged him so well. Listen to River Man th-cam.com/video/idcaRTg4-fM/w-d-xo.html and Fruit Tree- (about celebrity) th-cam.com/video/Y8MQcrR4OSc/w-d-xo.html They're Dark, but beautiful.
lolol... you gotta figure out what pink moon is??? you can't spell your own name... you probably didn't get past 7th grade. yeah, einstein, you figure it out. 😆
S S I love how you use your intellect and extensive lexicon, to articulate your review of Nick Drake's work, such eloquence. No wonder you can't appreciate his intensity, passion and musical craft in writing and performing these song's. Nick's acoustic guitar playing is amongst the best in the world.
Northern Sky is another beautiful song by Nick Drake.
including the masterful John Cale
As a father, I can’t imagine losing my Son way too early. Nick was such a beautiful and soulful young man. I cry whenever I hear his songs. One part for the Parent. One part for the Talent.
River man is such a beautiful Song too!
Yes it is
He was the best just his voice and guitar. But I make an exception for River Man. It is a masterpiece.
If it hadn’t been for a Volkswagen commercial there would still be millions more who have never heard of him.
Volkswagen Cabriolet it was. That's when I discovered Nick Drake
i remember being shocked when i heard the commercial
I'm one of them. Listened to his 3 albums soon after and was amazed at his incredible talent. So sad he didn't live to see how many love his music now.
The vibe of that commercial is inextricably linked to this song for me.Takes me back to better, carefree days.
@@american_cosmic - it's a great commercial. No dialog necessary, just a good song and emotions we can all relate to.
Nick Drake - One of my all-time favorite artists. So ahead of his time.
True !!
He's ahead of our time too...
Time Has Told Me is another amazing song by Nick Drake
Definitely. That 1 is my favourite
Pink moon is a sign that something bad is going to happen. Nick Drakewas very superstitious and had severe depression and sadly died of an over dose in the early 70s
Probably why his music has so much emotion.
He only ever did 3 albums, check them out.
He was a genius.
He gave us the joy and peace that he could never find himself through his music. Great music to listen to whenever stressed.
@@futurereflections4097 Mmmhmmm
when I listen to the song the word pink morphs into the word pain in my ears
Pink Moon is death, and a release. That's my take anyway!
He was at his happiest during the making of this album. That’s why he noted that he was at his best here.
Awwwwwwww!!! Now I’ve reached my heart! Nick’s music is incredible!!!!
Try Northern Sky
And
At The Chime of a City Clock!!!
Bravo for bein ahead of those reactors I listen to!
❤️
Pink Moon is one of my fav songs, simple and perfect!. Beautiful Nick Drake passed way to early.
I’d never encountered his music until a few years ago when Brad Pitt, of all people, made a radio documentary about him (apparently his favourite artist). You won’t regret listening to more Nick Drake. Northern Sky is my favourite of his.
What I love about it is that it SEEMS so simple, but his alternate tuning and guitar work is deceptively complex.
Ohhhh I LOVE Nick Drake. One of my favorites is “One of These Things First.”
yep cool song
His songs are often short, little poetic treasure boxes. Check out Day is Done, From The Morning, Northern Sky, One of These Things First, and Hazey Jane l & ll
So many more...
Sadly Nick died young and in obscurity. He’s the greatest posthumously famous musician in history. His first hit was I believe 24 years after his passing. Unreal!
Wow, you did a Nick Drake reaction. My favourite artist of all. When I die I want his song 'Road' played at my funeral.
"Cello Song" from him... is amazing too!
Nick Drake ❤❤ - his most beautiful is Northern Sky - often used in movie soundtracks - bt evrything he wrote and sang is a masterpiece. . 💔
Time Has Told Me....a must listen, over and over! The most beautiful song I have ever heard....
A song like a little pearl.
The whole Five Leaves Left album is AMAZING. Especially when you listen to each song > 10 times... it's the kind of music you can easily underappreciate if you only listen to it once. There are a lot of incredible nuances in each track + the absence of electric guitars and other "noisy" instruments makes these songs so... fragile.
My favorite album of his
One of my best friends is a professional musician in Austin, Texas. He turned me onto Nick Drake about 15 years ago. Dude was an amazing talent who died way too young. There's a great comp called An Introduction To Nick Drake which has all of his essential songs.
River man / Which will / Free ride are some great ones. He has a lot of great songs for such a small body of work.
I don't think I have ever heard this song before and I don't recognize the gentleman's name. His voice is so relaxing and unique, I think once heard never forgot. It was very short which is a great shame, I was really enjoying myself listening. Jayvee you could have listened to more as well, I could see by your reactions you were as into the song as I was.

Please do River Man - it’s one of the most haunting and beautiful songs of his. Brilliant musician! Thank you!!
Oh! Nick Drake! How did I miss this reaction?! "One of these things first" will be a great song to react to as well! Loved listening to the whole album on a Sunday morning!
River Man is a haunting song...haunting in a good way.
Black eye dog might be my favorite. I believe it was the last song he recorded before he passed away. Little known fact Heath ledger was obsessed with this guy up to the point of his death. He’s the king muse of the troubled souls.
I'v loved this song from the first second I heard it and knew it was for good. Not many like that.
“Pink Moon” is about the beauty of the pink moon and how it enchants us. “ Pink moon gonna get ye all…”
He was a talented dude.
2min and 4 secs of absolute genius.
Pink Moon, one of the finest and shortest songs ever written.
Maybe 'Saturday Sun' from Five leaves left runs a close second!
Stanley Dobson I love that one, too!
@@BelleNewman Never get tired of listening to Pink Moon.
Sometimes play it on repeat. 🔂
Stanley Dobson Five Leaves Left is probably my favourite album by him, as it was the first one of his that I bought, less than 10 years ago ..
@@BelleNewman In fact, I think all 3 albums are good.
Each one has its highlights and merits.
Think I will play all three in chronological order this evening.
Couldn't think of a better way to get through 'Lockdown'.
Regards Stanley.
Drake has the ultimate chill resonance and playing
Things behind the sun is wonderful too
"Which Will" is suuuuuch a good song by Nick Drake.
Probably my favourite of his. One of the greatest songs ever written.
Samee
Do more!
Three hours
Which will
Road
Cello song
Day is done
RIP NICK
Nick Drake was amazing. Check out Richard and Linda Thompson "Shoot out The Lights" album.
Totally can relate to your reaction
I know this was forever ago, but you should revisit Drake. His songs do tend to be short, and beautiful. My favorite by him is Road...I just love thr guitar work in it.

Nick Drake was brilliant and suffered horribly from mental illness. He was only 26 when he died. His work is astounding.
Nick Drake is amazing. One of my favorite singer-songwriters.
Heard this song first time with you. Great reaction
I would not mind if they played this next never would of made it on my funeral man
My favorite of Nick Drake "clothes of sand" and ofcourse "fruit tree"
Love Nick drake. Pls play riverman
Discovered him not long ago. Love all of his albums.
I often wonder what Nick Drake would have made of our modern world of TH-cam artists etc? Fame is very different in many ways these days
music for night driving 🌙✨
Hi.you might want to check out Nick Drake once to be, this is another hidden gem..hope you enjoy it.oh and if you love music consider a listen to a listen to one the most beautiful pieces of music written.a song titled Haja o que Houver by Madredeus.
"Pink moon" is depression. "None of you stand so tall, pink moon can get you all".
Good stuff, man. Yeah, very stark and spare, too short, and beautiful.
Listen to his song titled "Fly"
If you haven't heard Lisa Hannigan singing 'chime of a city clock' and 'black eyed dog'... go listen to her now she is amazing
Good shot man Nick Drake is one of the best musician ever !
LERV Nick Drake!
Way To Blue (both versions) Riverman, From The Morning and Northern Sky are also killer tracks!
Discovered Nick a couple years ago.
Pink Moon is a reference to a blood moon. An omen signifying the end of the world.
So haunting.
The Moon Brings up everything to the surface
... Energy Wise... emotionally...x
I think Nick Drake had more shit on his plate than he could handle..
Bless his heart 💓🙏 an absolute Legand and Original 💓🤘
'Fly' by Nick is another deceptively simple but evocative song worth checking out.
Try Time has Told Me. Beautiful.
... but the best composition of his was By far is riverman who writes a song in 5/4 time???
lan Anderson - Living in the past.
bless you ❤️
Northernsky.best white love song ever written .purest
Volts wagon used to use this in a commercial
Listen to nightshift the commodores.. great song and meaning .. i think you will love it 😀 also Gladys Knight midnight train to Georgia
Try Place to be by Nick Drake❤
Love Nick, check out One of these things first and Cello song.
River man
Subscribe! Anyone reviewing Nick Drake is alright in book.
All the suggestions below are spot on.
Clothes of sand is pretty good 😶
It known as the harvest moon
There is an overwhelming sense of weariness and fatigue present in both the guitars and Drake's voice in this song.
Time has told me and Black eyed dog. 👌😉
river man 🤙
don't listen to the rest of the comments, you should check out one of these things first, its a track by nick drake. 🏴🏴🏴
you should listen whole album !!
Bingamuuuu
Nick Drake, such a unique artist who died very young, accidentally and leaving no video recordings.
Oh my friend, please listen to River Man! Keep 'em coming. Peace.
Joel2kjv racts 2 kjv perfect Segway lyrically and scripturally..
For the new artists.a live version so we can vizualize maybe
Unfortunately no live footage of nick drake exists
Next 2Pac song you do should checkout one of his less popular songs like. You Can Be touched. Road to glory. Still I Rise (original feat outlaws) Krazy Feat Bad AZZ
Dumpin Feat Carl Thomas Hussein Fatal
Bro listen to the whole album. That's the title track.
Yeah man, less is more with Nick. Short and sweet. He was a sensitive, shy lad by all accounts. His song "Horn" on his last album had words, but he was too depressed to sing them.
Nick Drake died way before his time
cello song
You pegged him so well. Listen to River Man th-cam.com/video/idcaRTg4-fM/w-d-xo.html and Fruit Tree- (about celebrity) th-cam.com/video/Y8MQcrR4OSc/w-d-xo.html They're Dark, but beautiful.
Not everything has to mean something
Primal
lolol... you gotta figure out what pink moon is???
you can't spell your own name... you probably didn't get past 7th grade.
yeah, einstein, you figure it out. 😆
Crap listen to patches. Am trying to help you. To real music.
Calm yourself. Nick was as real as it gets.
You obviously don't know real music if you think this is crap
