been smoking too long - nick drake

[mountainwoman66]

Mmmm...interesting  ;-P

[reallyhappytrees]

Nick Drake's interpretation of John Cage's 4'33. The timing is all fucked, he ruined it

[bufo604]

@reallyhappytrees hahahah...

[mpwiest70]

woahhh this is soo innovative post-sound

[worthmoremusic]

sound please.....

[smashingpoop]

this is what you call experimental music

[nochenontubo]

Nice picture. Too bad there's no music.

[paulgad]

He is trying nto say he is dead, becuase smoking kills people. So this is his hippy, bullshit crap he had to not say anything. This is my favorite song of his.

[paulgad]

What a bunch of pertentious piece of shit, and 2:00 I will never get back.

[ThePaczki]

This video would be way better if it actually contained the song . . .

[chinesefoo13]

This is great thanks for the upload lol

[superfishle]

It's blocked in the UK cos UMG are fucking fan-hating ingrates who think they own Nick Drake even though he died for Them and their Souls LAST fucking MILLENIUM, is why!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Arsebastards!

[superfishle]

@superfishle Nick Drake to his Mother "I just want my music to HELP PEOPLE!"

[emphasis added]

UMG to the World "It will help EVERYONE if I burn your body and sell your name to everyone who will cough it up, FOREVER!!"

[expletives deleted!]

[andy92811]

love this song, and this version.

[demolitionman4eva]

sounds like the rear end of an iveco

[GSarovich]

I been smoking too long

[xyhmo]

Why are some people saying you can't hear the song? Think you've been smoking too long...

[DirkjeA]

Definately needs a triangle too... that would make it even more beautiful.

[DirkjeA]

Smoked something (sigh...) , but I cannot hear a cowbell, only a moose or is that what you guys meant??? ;-)

[SueZens]

I hear nothing, and ya, LOL more cowbell!

[beelzabubba]

I guess I've been smoking too long as well, because I 've gone DEAF... apparently...

[personwhosnowboards]

@beelzabubba lmfao that was pretty funny!

[hippiegirl1968]

where's the sound???

[Nurgga]

I don't hear fuck shit.

[mark1800]

1:24 awesome

[JIPALIG]

Man, I have been smoking to long, Cause i was hearing the song in my head, didnt even realize it wasnt playing until i read the comments.

[rose61au]

LOL

[Kyonkyonpanda]

I'm imagining the song is being played now...

[Lithglin]

This kinda reminds me of Cage's 4'33''.......

[FelipeGarza]

you have no idea how hard i laughed at that lithglin. well done.

[mark1800]

so derivative

[PAULLONDEN]

Deafening~~«d~_×b»~~•

[blasticpuddhas]

no sound

[ripalte]

needs more cowbell

[lastsonofktn]

hahahaha

[davidoffon]

I've longed to never smoke again

Unless the graveyard's full and then

I'll be a barbeque, feeding everybody who

Churns up from the soil, some they raw

Others boil like Bacon that Francis has foresaken So to die to be eaten for your art is my why?

[edhusse]

oh come on, its just no sound with track title -

if you think this is genius, shutdown your computer and just listen...

[doglizarddog]

fuck you man

[Jakuzadoc93]

Amazing!

[Franklintwo]

yeh. Thats what happens when you're smokin. Everything slows down. At about 2:23 you'll start to hear the song!

[hoiikbenbert]

this is modern art

[saladlegs]

i think that nick drakes style did change throughout his three albums in this case, into much more experimental works such as 2 minues and 20 seconds of silence

[meddle71echoes]

Genius.

Both of you.

[nordischeshumbug]

thank you very much for the sound of silence...i did enjoy it.

[arnoldivan2]

great! sounds like shitting in space

[larosadecobre]

I can't hear anything! Pleas upload sound again!

[dancingfeet44711]

[pokerslut530]

[TheArtistOfKuroo]

It's either not working anymore or everyone really has been smoking too long.

[rlslbt]

[lionsome]

[jackfillsyouwith]

[Alkuris14]

wow this song is amazing i am new to this music but this so far is my favret song the intro is awsome

[guitarcasper]

brilliant song.

[Niamhdm78]

I adore nick. This photo reminds me of a color version of Bare Trees Fleetwood Mac. Guess I've been smoking to long cause, the trees aren't too bare. The swaying of trees are haunting as is the song. Nice Image. Since we never got to see him do it live. KJO

[ravens1001]

Brilliant!!!!!

[BluesBrother93]

I adore this guy's music, RIP Nick Drake, amazing. . .

[dvs1572]

very unique style

[jimmyfrancicone]

i don´t see the images,just listen his voice

glorious!!!! tell tell me...

[WakingTheDemon04]

this is one of drakes best songs and thers only five comments including mine :S

[TheArtistOfKuroo]

Must say, there is something about the unfiltered sound that adds to the songs eeriness and beauty. Both trademark qualities of Nick Drake (though the song was originally by Robin Frederick.)

[Raymantico]

when I get to smokin'

put my worries on a shelf...

[HighTensionWire]

jesus christ.

[dpwhall]

...try not to see myself...

a window into a brilliantly haunted man. So few comments for a song that wasn't released on any of his three original albums and yet one of his best.

[Raymantico]

I've been haunted by it since I first heard it.

...perhaps a bit mutually auto-biographical.

[StopDropandLOL]

Happy belated, Nick. Wish you were still here to share it with us.
