Hardmode: demo/alt tracks

Personally I love this one because it feels so much darker and doubtful compared to the original. You can really tell Nick is wrestling with his insecurities.
I've never heard a Nick Drake song I DIDN'T like

From The Morning.
How can a song be so sad and so hopeful at the same time?
Nick Drake is my fav artist. He was with me when was passing through some really fucked up time.

good fucking rec desu
I never really loved this song on the album but the demo is amazing
Things Behind the Sun but only the part where he talks about "A movement in your brain/ sends you out into the rain"
Sad!

im not talking shit about him. im talking shit about the record producers and shit that dulled down his music. i dont think he had much say over the gay flowery overproduction and extra instruments and shit.. probably the record producers trying to make it more marketable or some shit. its clear from his hom recordings hes an amazing songwriter

>gay flowery overproduction
What succint, thoughtful critiques.
There are some fantastic session musicians and members of other british folk acts playing on those records. I'll admit there are portions of Bryter Later that are a bit overproduced, but the arrangements on Five Leaves left are all around fantastic and absolutely elevate the songs to levels they would not have otherwise been able to reach. And Nick did help past his own parts, don't project your own shitty opinion on him.

What exactly does he mean by parasite? Was he talking about his NEET days?

This is one of the most striking things about Nick to me. I don't find him overtly sad, his state of mind just bled into his music. I find Pink Moon in particular to be almost hopeful. I just wish things had gone his way.

Have you seriously never heard Pink Moon?
