nick drake - strange meeting II 

Not only a highly skilled musician but a phenomenal poet as well.

I spent my entire high school years wanting to be the girl in this song

"The heavy toll of a thousand sighs"... ❤️

Sand seems to be a sometime theme in his songs. Somewhere on the Internet there are home movies of Nick at the beach with his parents when he was only a toddler very very young. Running running all over the sand in and out of the waves looking very happy same face just a smaller little person. I wonder if he looked back on those days fondly..

She came to me and I saw in her eyes The heavy toll of a thousand *SIGHS*

Possibly the most haunting song of all time. Nick Drake was pure genius.

les chansons de nick sont saisissantes et hantent esprit et ame ,je ne trouve pas cette qualité chez la majorité des autres artistes ,des chansons datant de 40 ans et sont vives comme hier ,c'est ca le talent musical...

To my ears there is purity, beauty, poetry and calmness beyond any other artist that I have heard. A sublime, unique talent was given to Nick.

Love it when he goofs up and laughs between verses..

Everything was beautiful about Nick. This is an example.

I love Nick Drake and this song. It is so touching and nearly everytime when I hear it I have to cry. How can the world or life cant be good or nice enough for a human like Nick to stay and live.. Sry for my bad english

My Favourite Nick tune

There's something so hauntingly beautiful about this song. I love it.

Woah! Momma its Beautiful

Such a beautiful sadness. Nick Drake can really pull on your soul.

Hey Nick, big fan from the future, I’m back to listed again. It’s just a funny dream. Peace Nick.

I just love the beauty of this song due to the fact that I can feel and relate to this song based on personal experience. See, I knew this one girl, who've I've been friends with for almost 10 years, and i could conclude that I don't remember a time when i didn't like her or didn't enjoy her company. But ever since she left my school, she and a few of other friends who also go way back pop in my dreams once in a while.

This is my favourite Nick Drake by far.... I have no idea why....

Amazing song. It stays in my heart every time I hear it. A true original, Nick Drake!

I believe this is the most beautiful lyric ever written in english. its so beautiful it hurts💔

It´s one of the most beautiful songs, I have ever heard. Eva-Catrin Reinhardt

so beautiful. so sad.

Just amazing, such a beautiful song. One of my favourites of any artist.

Retrieving water bed and wet sand. We ran and flew across the watery plane above the surface without shoe. Strange song and like my visual. This world is oddly strange.

A rischio di fare psicologia da 2 soldi questa canzone così dolce e struggente è un racconto meraviglioso sull'incontro dell'uomo con il suo femminile interiore, l'Anima, l'amica, la musa. Anche se si dubita a volte che questa parte ci parli e si mostri, il suo messaggio non andrà mai perso....

as captivating a minor-keyed melody as any of drake's more renowned pieces.

Nicks finest moment beautiful

Hard to believe this is a demo. gone way too soon Nick ; (

2 people didn't like this clip??????????????? Unbelievable. Maybe just a Linda Ronstadt fan

beautiful

bem profundo e melancólico, gênio.

cant listen to the entire track. this hurts so much , i whine for that dear one , something i can never have. Why do people just disappear out of your life.

Still here.....depth of the sea

I'll call her my princess of the sand..

I think it's "the heavy toll of a thousand sighs", instead of eyes.

💜💜💜

milk and honey was until now (^.^)

Deep down in the depths of forgotten dreams So far away so long ago it seems The memory comes of a distant beach Pale sand stretching far from reach It was then I found my princess of the sand. As I traced the foam, pebbles beneath my feet I looked behind, I saw this one so sweet She came to me and I saw in her eyes The heavy toll of a thousand sighs I called her my princess of the sand. She stared at me and my mind was in a maze As we moved along in a summer sea-dream haze She moved her mouth but there came no sound The message she brought can never be found But I called her my princess in the sand. One moment we walked with the night breeze in our face Then I looked, she'd gone. of her presence there was no trace Where she went or came from who can know Or if she'll ever return to help me know Who she is, my princess of the sand. Sometime when the summer nights come back I'll go back to the sea, follow that sandy track I'll look around, and i'll hope to find That strange young dream, close behind I'll call her my princess of the sand.
