Road is such a sad song, pretending not to be a sad song. And yes his whole catalog of subtle, beautiful music, he was a genius.
Odd recommendation but Hayes Carll the country singer, I love him and told one of my friends part of what I find so compelling about his music is that you can always hear in his voice this edge of sadness, even in his really happy songs (and he's good at happy songs) it sounds like he knows it can't last. That is part of what I really appreciate about Nick Drake, he wasn't good at hiding the sadness in his voice, and it adds depth to everything he is singing.
