So much good music!!!!! Amazing. I’ve always been drawn to music that can convey depression, suffering and at the same time beauty and grace.

Here’s another one - from an addict who couldn’t quite get things right.

I really like this, reminds me of music from an earlier time. What happened to him? Did his addiction do him in? Thank you for the music.

After listening to this song, it reminded me a little bit of Nick Drake's simple pure voice, I looked up Elliot Smith.... you're right, his addictions and drinking probably got the best of him but in the end it was questioned whether he died by suicide or homicide and no illegal substances were found in his body. I didn't realize he had created so much music. Thanks again. Elliott Smith - Wikipedia

I think this is an appeal to her partner for a simpler life. The music is haunting.

I want flatlands
I never cared about
Money and all its friends
I want flatlands

I want flatlands
I don't want precious stones
I never cared about
Anything you've ever owned
I want flatlands
I want simplicity
I need your arms
Wrapped hard around me

I want open plains
And scattered trees
I want flower fields
I want salty seas
I want flatlands
Soft and steady breeze
Bringing scents of
Lined-up orchard trees
Dripping heavy
With pears and dancing leaves
I want flatlands
Will you go there with me?

When it's said in the dark
And you know it's always there
When it's there in your heart
But your mind is unafraid
When it's said in the dark
And you know it's never coming back
When it's there in your heart
In your mind, you set it free
