Oh I shall be getting sad soon … this kind of music is so stirring and beautiful but really tugs at your emotions so can be a bit too much if you’re in a low mood.
Most Radiohead are quite miserable but tuneful

To be candid I’ve never heard of Nick Drake before… thanks for the heads up though!

It makes me incredibly homesick. Waterloo sunsets really are a thing, we’d often walk down and watch the sunset over the Thames

The Manics did a good version too.
And everything by the Smiths (I’ve heard)seems to be sad.
I very often listen to James Taylor. He has a lovely mellow, soothing voice.
