PS22 Chorus 'Northern Sky' Nick Drake (ft. Clive)

Here is one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite artists -- "Northern Sky" by the brilliant Nick Drake. And it should be noted that the kids (and the featured PS22 Chorus of 2004 alum Clive) learned the song for the first time at this same rehearsal. An exceptional performance!

If nick saw this it would of made all his suffering and hardship worth it. His music touched so many and played and enjoyed

[othmane]

This is one of the best things I ever found on Internet!

[ryamary]

My favorite part is the boy at the end that knows that they nailed it.

[markbuckley]

What can I say. A long time fan of Nick Drake, and then I find this, beautiful, uplifting and perfect. Just wonderful.

[calummacneil]

a very british artist with a very british sensibility but I think Nick Drake would have been stunned by this. One of the best songs ever written and a great cover

[michaelsmith]

One of the most beautiful things I have ever seen on the internet.... I love Nick Drake... I have had it in my will to play this song at my funeral...

jesus man, as a music student who adores nick drake and is thinking about teaching kids, this blows my mind.

[odjuret]

I stumbled upon this when I searched for people reacting to Nick's music. This made me cry thinking about Nick and how the lack of recognition for his music made him fall into depression that in the end took his life. I picture Nick sitting in the back with a big grin on his face just listening to these angelic voices capturing his music. Thank you!

[cacleary]

Nick Drake lives! These children bring us hope and joy.

[diegomercadovillarroel]

This one's for you Nick. Hope, wherever you are, you can see that your work was not in vain

[gumstickstudios]

Nearly 10 years later—I hope everyone in this video watches it now and sees what a beautiful moment in time this is!

[paolomartinelli]

keep teaching to kids great songs like this... those songs will give them something that may be helpful in their future.

Amazing... Imagine if Nick Drake saw this

[chaigh]

I’ve been a Nick Drake fan since the Seventies.
I’ve just found this version for the first time.
It caught me completely off guard and I was in floods.
Amongst other things, It shows how many people loved and love him.

[MassimilianoSalvatori]

exciting to see how far the music of that shy boy has arrived. Nick himself would be happy

[benqish]

This is simply divine. Those kids are gorgeous. So clean, so perfect.

[elfranco]

Im a cynical git normally but this is amazing. Wee kids booming those perfect harmonies with ease. And the guy singing, just fucking wow. Good work

[bartpitt]

so grateful to have stumbled across this

[kjp]

Talk about crazy magic? Wonderful! What a beautiful version of one of one of Nick Drake's sweetest songs.

[jay-weezy-cm]

this actually brings tears to my eyes thinking about if Nick could have seen his music being taught to children
