wonder if it would sound ok with a Will Young or Michael Bubbly singing that, bit more up to date and a jazzy,swing feel type to it.

i was into my Pink Floyd,Joe Satriani, Guns n roses type when i was younger, although brought up on Mozart lol, listening to classical music before you go to school ,nothing like it!

Agree on Pink Floyd,and heard bit's and pieces of Satriani but never was a Guns n Roses fan.
Classical can be good stuff at times.

i was born in 75 so when i was at school it was eighties ****e lol ,although i cant knock Michael Jackson, man was a genius with music, my sister was into ****ing Bros and Kyle and Jason ****e.

i love people who can sing and not manufactured crap you get now days ie posh skinny as **** disgusting pig spice, i don't normally watch reality crap but the voice is good as they cant see what the person looks like and they have to go on the voice, quite funny when they looked gutted as its a skinny as **** good looking person they have knocked back even if they cant sing for ****.

what does a person sound like on the radio? exactly, its more important that they can model and crap now days as well arghhhh, after all the most luckiest **** i have ever known has made good money football wise out of it in the name of Beckham and i can't sing posh spice.

Mind you, there is a big red thing in the sky, there's beer flowing and everyone is smiling, that may have something to do with it.

reminds me a bit of being on the beach with mates and one of your mates playing guitar singing, sun is shining, beers and smoke flowing, pung tang all about.

happy days, ****ing miss them lol too old for that ****e now sadly.

although if you are at a barbecue works just as well, everything is sorted when the sun is shining and the beers are flowing <ok>

He's an interesting artist Pink Moon is probably the best album.

Nicholas Rodney "Nick" Drake (19 June 1948 &#8211; 25 November 1974) was an English singer-songwriter and musician, known for his gentle guitar-based songs. He failed to find a wide audience during his lifetime but his work has gradually achieved wider notice and recognition. Drake signed to Island Records when he was 20 years old and a student at the University of Cambridge, and released his debut album, Five Leaves Left, in 1969. By 1972, he had recorded two more albums&#8212;Bryter Layter and Pink Moon. Neither sold more than 5,000 copies on initial release. Drake's reluctance to perform live, or be interviewed, contributed to his lack of commercial success.

Drake suffered from depression, particularly during the latter part of his life. This was often reflected in his lyrics. On completion of his third album, 1972's Pink Moon, he withdrew from both live performance and recording, retreating to his parents' home in rural Warwickshire. There is no known footage of the adult Drake; he was only ever captured in still photographs and in home footage from his childhood. On 25 November 1974, Drake died from an overdose of amitriptyline, a prescribed antidepressant; he was 26 years old. Whether his death was an accident or suicide has never been resolved.

Drake's music remained available through the mid-1970s, but the 1979 release of the retrospective album Fruit Tree caused his back catalogue to be reassessed. By the mid-1980s Drake was being credited as an influence by such artists as Robert Smith, David Sylvian and Peter Buck. In 1985, The Dream Academy reached the UK and US charts with "Life in a Northern Town", a song written for and dedicated to Drake. By the early 1990s, he had come to represent a certain type of "doomed romantic" musician in the UK music press and was frequently cited as an influence by artists including Kate Bush, Paul Weller, Beck and The Black Crowes. His first biography appeared in 1997, and was followed in 1998 by the documentary film A Stranger Among Us.
