^^^my stuff

 

How can anyone like Indie music and not like Elliot Smith?

God, the guy had balls though, he killed himself in one of the most painful and violent deaths possible. Hey, at least it was a poetic death for the guy, it's more romantic than pulling a Kurt Cobain

 

ya, right here.

His melodies break my heart...

 

fuck i know. the song waltz #1 breaks my heart, something about his quiet moans in the song. they're so sad.

 

Are you into the Winter Pills and Espers too? If not, you might like them

 

I haven't checked out the winter pills or the espers, but Elliott Smith is by far my favorite singer-songwriter. His music always has a profound impact on me whenever I listen to it.

 

He is the man

 

I loved Elliott Smith's stuff for a while, since after "XO" came out. It is a total tragedy, and I cried. But I don't think I was surprised. I saw him in an interview, and he was painfully shy. He was nervous, and it appeared that he'd like to be doing anything but the interview. You could tell that he spoke through his music, rather through words.


All his stuff is great, but I will always like "Figure 8", followed by "XO", and after that, I like it all equally. I'd be lying though, if I said it wasn't hard for me to listen to his stuff now.

 

it's just so sad..

 

I absolutely love Elliott Smith. His music is just so well-written.

 

mmm elliot smith is amazing, one of those tortured souls that puts everything into perspective. i love him. without him i never would have gotten into bright eyes... or was it the other way around? hmmm.

 

I love him, and had to chance to see him several times.

I believe his girlfriend killed him.
