Nick Drake - Fly

Many of today's song writers owe a lot to Nick Drake. While only recording three albums before his death at the age of 26 in 1974, Drake's intimate,haunting lyrics and music have influenced a generation of singer/songwriters. "Fly" is from his second album, Bryter Layter released in 1970. The song reached some acclaim through its inclusion on The Royal Tenenbaums soundtrack. It is a good representation Drake's sparse, autumnal sound.
