| Nick Drake – Hazey Jane I Lyrics

well said, Courtingblues. Wow, you said that six years ago, yet your comment resonates so clearly right now. It's a timeless clarity, and a timeless fogginess that, I believe, underlies the essence of humanity, embraced in a song like "Hazey Jane." I can't tell you how often I listen to that song.... all of Drake's songs, and think about my own mindset. Buckley too. As for the other artists you've mentioned, I am not familiar, but am definitely going to do a little listen for them. Jackson Browne is another I feel this way about. His lyrics might seem self-evidently like love-loss stories, but I think, I feel that they are more of self-reflections.

Even before the lyrics, gosh, how truly beautiful the musical transition in the beginning of the song. Chaotic frenzy turns into an organized melancholy almost seamlessly, and yet, you notice the seam. This is musical genius. Lyrically too, of course, but I just love the the musical intro. |
