"TIME HAS TOLD ME" NICK DRAKE (1969)

This is a timeless one. I’m not sure why Nick Drake’s music was never fully appreciated when he was alive. But I’m glad these recordings made their way to the world in the era of streaming. Nick was an old soul. He was 21 years old when he was penning songs like “Time Has Told Me”. But this song sounds like something someone twice his age would write. It has aged beautifully. Same goes for his entire catalog. As brief and prolific as it was.

“So I'll leave the ways that are making me be what I really don't want to be. Leave the ways that are making me love what I really don't want to love.”
