Pink Moon - Nick Drake (Cover) 

Every cover you've done by Nick Drake is my most favourite cover of him. Your voice is so much like his, but has more a youthful spring to it than he did - suppose it was his depression. Either way, don't go a week without listening to these, hats off to ya.

Nick's songs are alive and well here.

When you sing "Pink Pink Pink Pink Moon" I feel like it's Nick Drake who's singing. Your covers are really great !

For Pink Moon it's CGCFCE, for Place To Be CGCFGE, with the C tuned down. I'm glad you think so. Thanks. I appreciate that you stopped by to listen.

That is nice to read, and kind of you to say. I'm really glad you enjoyed my renditions! Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to listen. I appreciate it.

The key thing with your interpretations is that you understand the actual core of the songs, not just the music. It shows! All the best and good luck with future songwriting!

I always find myself coming back to your Nick Drake covers after quite some time. I'll never stop being impressed all over. You're wonderful.

I have listened to numerous interpretations of Nicks songs and you are still the most on point and compelling. So in keeping with spirit and essence of the way the songs were communicated by Nick drake himself.

Years go by but there is always a moment when I come back to your videos. Thanks for sharing your talent, never stop. Take care. Jérémy

That guitar sounds so beautiful and your playing is so effortless. Truly bringing how big and beautiful the acoustic guitar use to sound during the 60's and 70's.

The only cover artist I've seen who truly captures the mood and tranquility of nick drakes musical talents. Immaculate performance

It's an early 90s Washburn D12S. (solid spruce top, mahagony back and sides). I'm really glad you like the tone! Thanks for listening.

Gosh, this is so beautiful. The only cover I've heard that really captures Nick to me. Thanks for sharing your gift with us!

Very nice cover. Seriously, can't stop replaying it. Pink Moon is one of my favorite songs and your interpretation of it is very addictive.

Thank you for listening. I'm glad you enjoyed it! You can find most of the tunings on nickdraketabs com

Thank you for listening and the kind words! I appreciate it.

I spend a lot of my time trying to learn ND on guitar, and videos like yours (and tab) are so helpful. Also your guitar versions are the best and most natural sounding on youtube - and I have checked them ALL! Thanks and well done. Liam

Reminds me so much of him. So similar and yet so different. I love it. His music lives on in your covers.

This is why I love music. I can feel the emotion in this. I can feel the feelings of someone else. I think I can understand what someone has to say. It's totally beautiful.

Just excellent; loving the beautiful sound of Nick Drake recreated with such skill and passion - thanks so much, you are very talented 👍

This is amazing, been listening to it non-stop.

Beautiful cover, just heard it for the first time. Thank you for sharing with the whole world

Nick reborn... Thank you for all the Nick Drake covers Tobias...

The hairs on the back of my neck stood up when I heard the first few strums and lyrics! You sound just like him! Great cover, bruddah! The guitar is SPOT on

Just learned to play this amazingly humble and melodic song! However the way you sing and play it really does do Nick Drake justice! You are amazing!

This is the only cover I've seen/heard of this that doesn't lose the song. You forget it's a cover, it's got soul

This was one of the best covers I've ever seen in general

My congratulations to you. You’ve captured Nick’s essence while adding your own spark. Bravo!

Best nick drake cover I’ve ever seen , you killed it kid

Thanks for the kind words. I'm really glad you enjoyed my cover!

I appreciate the positive comments. Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed my renditions of Nicks work.

Man. Really doing justice on both these tunes. Not an easy undertaking.

I've watched this cover and cello song.... Absolutely awesome, really really the two best covers I have ever heard! I've sub'd to watch all ure stuff! Thanks

I so very love this song, it's absolutely beautiful. And, I'm glad to hear you cover it; thanks 1 million times.

For so many years, unfortunately, we know that Nick Drake is no longer with us, flying to heaven to play with angels !! Listening to Tobias, his skill, his perfect interpretation of Nick's songs is a great happiness and emotion. Great job Tobias!

I just love this song sooo much :) Camera so clear and of course quality of the sound is beautiful... Well done!

You're playing is just incredible. Your voice has a wonderful tone for this type of music. Also I love the look of the video. Great work.

You do Nick credit...you really do...I'm so glad someone is doing serious covers-respecting the original music

This is an amazing cover, your guitar playing is impeccable and your voice fits this song perfectly!

Great job Tobias. I know this has been up for awhile but I just recently got obsessed with Nick Drake. I would love to see you do some tutorials on his music. Thx

i can't stop looking your covers; you are great!

Didn't expect Place to be.. which is my favourite Nick Drake's song. Amazing version, thank you.

The best cover I've heard to date. Excellent job!

Marvelous, deft playing. You have a wonderful soft voice like nick's and your clearly feel the song as you play. I have to do without the capo if I am to manage the vocal. Good to see his music living on in the young.

Just bought tickets for your ode to nick drake tour...its awesome you employ the homeless to sell tickets for you...getting the chance to see you pick would restore all the faith in humanity that's been stripped away by the two sublime cover bands that exist in every bar in every town

@themachinist1000 Thanks! I'm really glad you think so. I appreciate your positive comments. I doubt it though ;-) Not only for the lack of original material. But I often quietly consider it. Maybe i can get my head around the whole idea in some time.

Again. Brilliant cover. I know all these songs very well. Been a big part of my life. Well played mate 👍

awesome. keep it up these Nick Drake songs are phenomenal to see you play so well live.

Nick is such a difficult artist to cover because much of the beauty of his songs are conveyed in his uniquely soft voice & phrasing. This is beautiful, nailed it!

Nick Drake deserves this ! truly genius - kudos to everyone

That is really kind of you to say. Thank you for your comments. I'm glad you enjoyed my renditions.

Love your Nick Drake covers. I don't know how people can be disliking them.

Every video I see by you becomes my new favourite. So talented.

green greener than than the hill ,one of the few lines to make me cry,nick was awsome ,love to gabriel and rip nick and robert ,the love never dies

You're an amazing musician! Thank you for keeping Nick's music alive :)

Really outstanding job on these and the others ~ You seriously GET Nick!

Your voice is so delicate and fits perfectly with the sound of your guitar. Beautiful!

Really great playing. One of my favourite Nick Drake's songs is Pink Moon. Thank You.

You did great to put this two songs together! Your voice is so cool, great job!:)

fantastic job, young man - very clean, sweet performance - thx for helping to keep this great artist alive ! keep it up !!

you were the only one who covered this then. and whilst others covered nick drake, yours has his poignant feel. i have listened to your piano compositions too. they are good. reminds me as well if my own compositions when i was younger. you also photograph very well. and now you have an album released in Japan. do set up an IG account. fans have been tagging you. yeah. ive been following you and listening to your music even before you made your name an english one. such an old soul for such a young age. and too much emotion and reflection too. :)

Been thinking about Nick a lot lately and stumbled upon this. Wow, so beautiful. Thank you for this.

Thank you very much for this great cover... It feels so good listing to this... There is so much feeling... Greetings from Austria....;-)

Good job making the melodies your own vocally. Guitar perfection. Love the bonus track place to be. Nice idea.

came across your vid by chance,bloody brilliant,really enjoyed it.

You have done a fabulous job! Great singing and playing..

Good Job. Captured both music and feeling of it!

Found you trying learn Pink Moon. Awesome talent my man. Nick would be so proud. Thanks!

The best cover i've ever heard. Thanks! I've found peace!

Most people that cover Nick's song can neither play, nor sing in a soft melancholy way like he did. And you can do both. That is a blessing. This is about the closest you can go when you haven't seen him play live..Who did anyway?

You're a really great singer... something about it is so unique and moving. And great guitar playing as well!

You made me cry. I love Nick Drake and you are very talented. Good luck in your future in music.

You have so much talent, how is your video not been watched millions of times!

Very nice cover. Captured the spirit of Nick Drake beautifully.

This is such a beautiful and brilliant cover. You amaze me.

Holy Crap, Tobias, this is wonderful. Hats off -- and you have a new subscriber. Take care, Zs

came back again to listen....Your voice is so unpretentious and touching in this song.

Oh my God, Nick's here again. Great rendition, bravo!!

Came back again for this wonderful rendition you did of PM; Tobias, Nick's music is shining through YOU! Keep going, we all love what you are doing :)

The best covers of Nick Drakes I have ever saw... you are the one

Incredibly well played, great tribute to Nick Drake! Loved it!

Very well played and sung, sir, a most beautiful effort.

Man that is excellent. Well done. In my favourites for sure.

You are so rad man. I love your voice and you are perfect for Nick Drake songs. Wow. I came across you by your Chris and Thomas video, and I am so happy I found you! Just great man.

That's a nice voice...and falls well with Nick's range in actual voice..dope

I use a Zoom H2 recorder and run it through Garageband on a Macbook. For this cover I edited only treble and volume. For the videos I process the recordings as mp3.

I like the original version so much that I wasn't expecting much from any cover but...What a surprise ! You actually did something really worth listening to. And the sound of your voice is very close to the original. I hope you'll continue and eventually get inspired enough to write your own songs.

I just discovered you and I am already deeply pleased to be able to listen to you.

A real joy to listen to mate, incredible.

Go Kid Go......!! very well out!

Beautiful job Tobias..Pink Moon is a favorite of mine....

Little late to the game here but this is an amazing cover. Absolutely stunning. Fantastic guitar and lovely lovely vocals.

Thanks for stopping by. I really appreciate the kind words! Glad you like my renditions.

Brought to tears.

Wow, I'm blown away as always! You've got that rare trait of being a master of complex guitar picking and voice combined. Wish I did :) Hope you'll be playing some gigs in the UK soon!

@TheiosXaris Thanks! I'm glad you think so. I currently use a Pentax K7.

I'm really taken away by these covers, man. Sung and played very nicely. Keep it up!

Love nick drake , Was quite amazed how brilliant you are with that guitar....a real talent....maybe would be nice to listen to some of your music....will defiantly keel listening....

I've never heard a cover that improves on the original,but no one could,but lord your good

Another awesome Nick Drake cover! Keep up the good tunes!
