Bryter Later, 1971
Written by Nick Drake
"Would you love me through the winter? / Would you love me 'til I'm dead?" I recognize the second line from "Is It Wicked Not To Care" by Belle & Sebastian, who, as I've mentioned, nicked quite a lot of their schtick from Drake. Built around an opulent, lush piano melody, the song is nevertheless delicate, a song of love and longing and the desire for something permanent. It is said to be about Linda Thompson, though this is just speculation.
