@djjd62,
Hi djjd62
thanks very much for posting those
There was something his sister said.. about, 'the more he saw, the more he couldn't say' or something like that.
And, how he felt that he had something he needed to say.. but didn't know exactly what it was .i relate to that.
also how creativity/depression seem linked
and how being on anti-depressants can numb you.
I mean, he couldn't even sing and play the guitar at the same time towards the end!
i wouldn't normally be to eager to get my hands on new covers of his songs, but i saw this the other day....

Published: January 20, 2009
A coming album paying tribute to the British singer-songwriter Nick Drake will include a song performed by the actor Heath Ledger, Billboard reported. The track, a cover of Mr. Drake’s “Black Eyed Dog,” was recorded by Mr. Ledger in 2007 for an art installation; Mr. Ledger died the following January....
Other performers on the tribute album, which was announced at the MidemNet music industry conference in France, include Eddie Vedder, Dave Grohl, Norah Jones and Jack Johnson.
Apparently the art video is going to be available too.
