Emm...good evening...
Or should I say good morning?
The time is twenty-five to five
And I've been sitting here for some time now,
Actually I
After a party which I quite enjoyed, but you know it
One has one reservations when one has quite enjoyed oneself,
But one has to make reservations because, uh,
The people were particularly interesting.
In fact, there weren't as many people there as I expected there to be,
It was, I thought...you know,
The Maynard-Mitchells have a big big do
In fact there weren't nearly as many as one might have thought,
Which was, which was a pity.
In fact, I think I must have drunk rather a lot
(Or although it seemed so at the time I felt myself quite sober)

But when I leapt into the car to drive home
After my merry abandon
I found the task extremely difficult!
And it was extremely fortunate
That, um, there was nothing else on the road because, looking back at it,
I seem to remember I had a mental brainstorm
(Well, I didn't realise at the time)
And I think I drove the whole way home on the righthand side of the road!
Which is something of course which comes from driving in France too much,
Which is what I've been doing recently,
As you probably know, driving in France, you know.
And in moments of stress such as was this journey home,
One forgets so easily- the lies, the truth and the pain.
And so I'm wavering from the point
What I was trying to say...is uhm,
When I sat here I had an extremely pleasant time on the piano, actually
I was playing the piano and sort of singing,
And I rather fear I might have kept people awake upstairs
One hopes not, but it was pleasant, and it's extremely pleasant sitting here now,
Because I think there is something extraordinarily nice
About seeing the dawn up before one goes to bed,
Because there's something uncanny about it
When it suddenly becomes light, because one connects darkness with going to bed,
Surely... um, and when one is still up when it becomes light,
And it's a new day, and you still haven't gone to bed to sleep
(Because the night equals sleep, so easily)
And when one is still up when the new day begins
It is something of an intriguing experience, I always find.
I can look out of the window now, and that tree over there is green,
Whereas before one goes to bed,
Just when one goes to bed, that tree should be black, surely!
Everything should be black before one goes to bed,
But that is surely the essence of the Romantic!
Anyway, I think I'm straying from the point.
I should probably stop talking now
Because, um, if I don't I shall start sort of relating on life histories and things,
Which will be frightfully tedious.
So it's here that I'll sort of say goodnight, you know...
Goodnight!

(laughs)

Nick’s music makes me feel less lonely. I have no close friends in life but I wish I could have a friend like Nick. A gentle, brilliant, self-conscious man who deserved so much more in his life.

You're going to make it my friend, hang in there.

Jennifer Byrne

We're so lucky to be able to hear Nick speak, if only for three minutes - the length of a song - and get a fleeting glimpse into this enigmatic and supremely talented young man.

One shall NOT let this video disappear!
I love everything about this man! I can't get over the fact that there ain’t no single live footage of his (few) performances. I wish I could see the way he moves or know how tall he really was; these ungraspable details about him keep my mind busy. He’ll be forever missed!

Matt Hopper

There's a short clip of film of a very tall guy walking at a music festival. Some people say it is Nick. Have you seen it?

Gabriela N. Viçosa

@Matt Hopper Yes, I have, but I'm not fully convinced that the guy in that clip is actually Nick... one can only hope

I love Nick Drake's sense of humor and hearing him laugh at the end. I also love it when he laughs when he messes up in the recording of Day is Done in the Family Tree album.
