    Nick is one of my favorite artists. I discovered that Jackson C Frank was one of his biggest influences, and in this song is very clear, the melancholic tone, the drag, the pace, mystery... What a forgotten genius Jackson was, every folk lover should check him out.

    The first time I heard this song was when I was trying to study for an exam the next day. When I listened to the soft guitar along with that enchanting voice I immediately drop my books and just start to listen. I repeated it for like five times. It is such an interesting and amazing song which moves my soul. I appreciate Nick Drake, but I have been reading from the web that the original song was Jackson Frank's.

    Nick and Molly's songs as well as their takes on other's songs strike me as being so intuitive, free from contrivance. I think this is part of why I love their music so much. It rings forth like something largely unmediated by musical convention, from the heart of people who can't help but sing. They do it because they love it and it's what they do naturally.

    "Gold and silver is the autumn
    Soft and tender are her skies
    Yes and no are the answers
    Written in my true love's eyes
    Autumn's leaving and winter's coming
    I think that I'll be moving along
    I've got to leave her and find another
    I've got to sing my heart's true song
    Round and round the burning circle
    All the seasons: one, two, and three
    Autumn leaves and then there winter
    Spring is born and wanders free
    Gold and silver burns my autumns
    All too soon they'd fade and die
    And then I'd know, there'd be no others
    Milk and honey were their lies" - Music and Lyrics by Jackson C Frank -

    This sounds kind of haunting. These melodies give me an eerie otherworldly feel. I don't know if any one else listening feels what I feel. It may be hard to explain, but this song makes life dream-like, or makes life seem unreal. It takes me back to the first memories of when I was a kid. It kind of makes you disillusioned with modern society and want to question life. It has a very deep and existential atmosphere.

    This probably sounds corny, but I'm posting it anyway.
    When I was little and my parents would come back home from their trips to Ethiopia they'd bring back these Milk and Honey cookies. They were absolutely delicious. So, I'd go out into my (massive) backyard when my dad hadn't mowed the lawn for a while and sit there with my cookies and watch the clouds while eating.
    That's what the song reminds me of. :)

    I would like to say that this song was created by Jackson C. Frank. A lot of the stories that are attributed to Nick Drake are really Jackson C frank stories. He was the man that was way too shy to play in front of anybody, so he would ask that people not look at him. Also, I personally do not believe Drake tried to commit suicide, he was trying to take enough anit-depression medication to fell "better".. his intent was not to kill himself

    • @joshmichaels1435

      wrong on both counts; Nick was a person who would turn his back on his audience whilst tuning his guitar strings and not speak with them.My personal belief is that he suffered from,among other things,Asperger's syndrome (he had all the hallmarks)....and he did intend to take his own life;his sister Gabriel disputed it for years but finally came around to the view that he did take his own life out of weary frustration of living feeling the way he did (which was no doubt exhausting)...nobody takes that amount of pills "by mistake"

    He left us way to early but what amazing work he left for us to find ! Always moves me and takes me to a better place .There is also a great track just posted by a band called Unorfadox,its called Mr Drake (on You Tube).It just sums him up in a song without trying to emulate his sound at all,just a smart song ! anyone who gets Nick Drake will get this song .

    Was this from a live concert performance by Nick? I could barely hear some crowd noises around 0:53 - 0:55. If it is, it must be one of the rare (or only) recordings from Nick's live performances. Hearing what seems to be cheers from the crowd, does feel good considering that Nick was known to be depressed due to the poor response he received when he performed on stage

      This isn't a Drake's song, it's a cover of Jackson C Frank.

      +Alex Anton Yeah, I know it's a Jackson C Frank cover (what a song, that!). I was earlier wondering if Nick was performing this cover only in some concert. But now on re-hearing, it's clear it's just an indoors recording.

      Rahul Paul I think this is available on Family Tree with other home recordings including a few more covers of Jackson C Frank so Nick obviously really liked him :)
