Nick Drake - Northern Sky

[138bird138]

This song quite literally makes me ache.



[bobostinson]

this song is truley a great song.

p.s.

never understood the people who say nasty things, grow up.

[squoocher]

i fucked a woman who was fingered by him back in '72

[extraordinarygnome]

@squoocher WTF? Derp.

[SurferRosa79]

I'm in love.

[AztPowa]

Amazing song ,it's too beautiful to describe :)

[horse69outside]

makes me cry

[thejohnnygirl]

So completely beautiful...

[thequickfrowningox]

2 people are, quite frankly... cunts.

[TheFadedBloom]

Love this song, it makes me so happy. I need to cover this next. I just put up my video of Pink Moon cover, check out my channel. It's kind of an indie/folk version. I wish Nick was still living, we would have more beautiful melodies in the world today.

[ilovetodance03]

wondering what 2 crazy people would dislike this.......

[proline473]

My favorite Nick Drake tune. I hope his remaining folks got to know of his amazing talent.

[dellieke]

Gah...I was born in the wrong decade...regarding music...

[Arrinao]

@dellieke only...?:)

[partridgezombie71]

Suddenly, albeit for a few minutes - life aint too bad at all....

[cloudbuster66]

i live near where he passed away,greatly missed,

[zanyzoo6767]

if he lies near you, will you place a flower and and blow a kiss, from us all.

[Cintiplon]

El tema más hermoso que he escuchado!

[robbiedogful]

I'm noty a believer in the idea of heaven, but if there is such a entity this man must be there !

[RobertaPrestigiacomo]

Che meraviglia. L'umanita ha fallito perdendo Nick.

[theunseenpen1984]

Does anybody know the My Morning Jacket cover version? RIDE BIKES!

;D

[jamespaul0121]

There's nothing like this song. Just perfect, beautiful, unique. 

[PuffSmelly]

imagine if nick drake didnt die maybe and was still alive today i wouldnt hate the world then

[richrichrichism]

@PuffSmelly Bob Dylan is still touring, so the world is ok by me

[Rob54Massey]

This song reaches a place in me that only a few others can get to. Enough said.

[Blake788]

search nicolas and the iceni summers end. they write beautiful english folk music which has echoes of denny and drake.

[andrewkenworthy]

nick loved..someone..but who..its evident in a lot of his music..she obviously died..hence the cello song..at least i hope he loved and was loved before he died..a beautiful humanbeing he must have been.

[astamanjana]

now that I know for Nick Drake my ear is no longer thirsty and my heart is filled with beauty.

[LadyGamer1028]

have loved it from the start

[andrewkenworthy]

oh anna how ive loved you through the years and now this mess,,im so sad...i really do think you are the most amazing woman ive ever known..im so sorry for all the negative things that happened...

[lladsbid]

This, for me, is up there with Sweet Thing by Van Morrison as one of the most gorgeous love songs ever written.

[BinroWasRight]

@lladsbid INDEED! :~D

[LilacVine]

My video response to Nick's beautiful 'Northern Sky' is a tribute to Jon Rennard who died in a car accident, aged 24, in July 1971. 2011 is the 40th anniversary of his death and it would be lovely for a few people to hear his voice.

He had made one album and a retrospective album was released afterwards. 'In Your Smile' was one of Jon's own songs and its wistful sweetness reminds me of 'Northern Sky'. Many thanks.

[chingchangchongfly]

Greatest Nick song ever

[ceol27]

It feels like a hug.

[USAisAntiWhite]

Is this guy making the "video" on crack?

[hypNoTiKmaJesTy]

heaven

[Adamsaunty]

This song is so beautiful! Love it!!

[hotmn4u]

met my wife at one of his concerts back in 1973

[ssypresentday]

@hotmn4u

wow, really? How was that?

[hotmn4u]

@ssypresentday she spilled a drink on me and we've been together since

[territorialpisser]

@hotmn4u youre a legend

[BBJamesB]

@hotmn4u I thought he never played live/for fans...?

[oisinakasoloman3000]

@BBJamesB Pretty sure he did a few gigs back in the day but quit the tour early because he could never get the crowd to be quiet and he was never much of a talker. After that he never played live .

[deeeeeez10]

This song makes me want to do good things in the world. 

[ExpressTN]

Pure, calm, and powerful. It is a song that connects with deep inner emotions. I wish he was still around. I'm left craving more of his talent.

[USAisAntiWhite]

The person who made this "video" must have been high on crank.

[USAisAntiWhite]

The song this guy should be singing is "Don't do Drugs!" 

[MsHarrythedirtydog]

@USAisAntiWhite

WHY ? None of your business .



[seafield207]

quite simply beautiful

[jdrobinson53]

Most people hope to love someone as much as this song describes love.

[MsHarrythedirtydog]

@jdrobinson53

true

[TheOldEchoes]

@MsHarrythedirtydog Sorry, Maria, hello, you didn't swallow, only good girls swallow, SKANK.

[MsHarrythedirtydog]

[MsHarrythedirtydog]

@TheOldEchoes

[USAisAntiWhite]

Is everyone listening to this song with a tissue in their hand wiping away tears?! Get a spine you losers. Silly comments!

[MsHarrythedirtydog]

@USAisAntiWhite

[hotmn4u]

[banditdave1200]

Possibly the greatest love song.

[vintagegt]

This song is musical peace, satisfaction and joy. I love it. RIP Nick, the world misses you.

[0630Sam]

[StevieWonder501]

Wow...Heaven music. Nah, it'll be better, but still, this is beautiful!

[MichaelCantrall]

Very beautiful! Absolutely lovely sound

[dirtywafflegirl]

This is one of the most beautiful love songs ever written.

[billyconnearly]

Nick had the right idea - get stoned, write music, get more stoned, record music, get even more stoned, release music, get more and more stoned and then die! Result = Music Legend

[MsHarrythedirtydog]

@billyconnearly

sure beats fucking around with you morons pardon you of course =

[MsHarrythedirtydog]

@bethieanne802

Congratulations and Good Luck

[richardr105]

So sad that this great talent wasn't appreciated until after his untimely death....guess this happens more than we think. Time proved he was a rare talent indeed.

[shelbyonehalf]
