@gotf yeah i was there at thanksgiving and it was all good then two weeks later it was all super tagged up again. oh well, the owner said he wants to repaint it again anyways, he was not pleased with the re-painting that occurred without his knowledge.
if anyone reading this is considering re-painting the wall PLEASE talk to the owner of SOLUTIONS before doing so, he's got special plans for the wall =]
@dufftones That's really good to know. I wish there were more memorial sites like something in Portland also. I places where idiots wouldn't vandalize it.
Elliot, you changed my heart, changed my life, and changed my mind. Your beauty is everlasting, I am so sorry you had to endure so much pain to create it. I look up to you more than any other musician I have ever herd. I hope you've found peace in death, that you never found in life. I miss you buddy.
I love the little flubbed note at 2:15, where he doesn't quite push down on the string and it buzzes a bit. It just goes to show that despite the perfectionism and craftsmanship of his writing and playing, he's human just like the rest of us. It's just a perfect little imperfection.
Hey, get a new song! this is rea lly too short! I love that, and I don't want her to end. Please, your big fan :) Get a simmilar singer and go to work!!
i grew up with elliotts music, i saw him live when i was about 10 years old, listening to it again now that i've grown up, its just magic, RIP elliott
HOLY CRAP! i see my name! i wrote on it soon after it was made like a living memorial. that wall has been to hell and back with graffiti and all that. u can see my name "sigrun" around 1:48 on the left side. it didn't show my msg, just my name, but hey, that's kinda cool. I grew up in Portland. Grew up seeing/hearing him all the time. A bunch of us got "XO" tattoos. mines on my inner left wrist.
I just want to say: there seems to be hatred for those who find Elliott's music through his popularity and not in some "underground" way. While I didn't discover him through "Good Will Hunting" (which seems to be the most scorned way), I have arrived at his music late in the game. I feel as though it is important in my life and I love it. The fact that I first heard about in the NME doesn't mean I like it less, does it?
@TheParanoidAndroid1 I hear ya. I laugh at the people that are actually ignorant enough to get pissed at how one comes to find good music. I found Elliott Smith through 'Good WIll Hunting' - if this is honestly looked down upon, well, people need to get out more LOL. Whatev, Smith is a fantastic songwriter. end of story.
Dear Steven Paul "Elliott" Smith! I hope you are at a better place now.. and finally happy! Nobody deserves it more than you, because you brought so much beauty in this awful world, more than any other person in my point of view! We all miss you down here... When I look up to the stars, I know, that one day we'll meet up there.. . Rest in peace.
best quote i saw on that wall, " you've created more beauty than anyone ever has or will", i miss you elliott, i also love you for the day your soul met the guitar, ill never forget you man x o
just recently found out about elliot man, it's so sad when raw talent like this is wasted, but at least we got to hear what this guy had and we can live it over and over again thanks to utube.
@pipebillys is there truth to the rumor that the wall i getting painted over? i truly hope not. its a fucking shame the wall has been covered with graffiti.
@pennyroyaltea89 Recently about a few weeks ago some people from FMLY fixed up the wall and restored it voluntarily. It's the same, only that the final product isn't as good as it originally was, and they stencilled Elliott (as on the cover for Figure 8) on the mural. You can see images here: bit . ly/qlmSGS. Remove the spaces, of course.
I'm still glad it was done and it obviously looks better than it did when fucked up by graffiti.
@ShirtlessLocke yea i did see the new wall, kind of confused why they did such a crappy job. but i agree its allot better than the graffiti. and the thought is there and that's what counts. i do dig the elliott stencil tho! any way thanks for the reply!
@pennyroyaltea89 the restoration is fucking horrendous. some dumb hacks with no painting experience screwed it up with an outrageously sloppy job. Shit was just made worse
@ShirtlessLocke you just had to look at it afar and admire the beauty of the original; now it's some really disgusting tripe done by a group of lousy incompetents (though I don't question their sincerity)
@xhalph0n I was also referring to the fact that you used the word "retards" like that. Every time you do that, you dehumanize a mentally handicapped person a little more.
@LOVEluv1 Technically 'retarded' just means... well lacking I guess. So people who dislike this video must be retarded, because they lack any musical sense. I guess you also rage when racing car drivers wear 'flame retardant' clothes?
The moment when the song goes "Drink up baby, look at the stars,...", and that's sync'd to those same lyrics written on the wall is... wow, just awesome.
@staphinfection i dont wanna talk about it... i have a sharp objects phobia or something..just thinking about it is freaking me out right now...god RIP
I just uploaded a video of Elliot smith and I got a message to watch out if the owners of the song decide to pull it down my account may be pulled and what not. so what should I do? delete it or what?
I really want to go there some day. I love his music because he is one of the rare artists to bring such poignancy to actually bring a tear to your eye.
It sucks dick that all these rising artists, that are soo much better than todays, all died at a young age, also very strange deaths, like jeff buckley
@slevin251 Like an alt rock artist, prog rock, who knows. He wrote a bunch of emotional songs that the people who signed that wall, can relate to. I only really like needle in the hay but i dont have the time to go through al, his songs.
I love you Elliott. You have changed so many lives, including mine. I've listened to your music since I was a kid. I wish I could have met you before the end of your days in this terribly corrupted world. Forever in our hearts, minds, and ears. You are dearly missed by many. ♥
I miss seattle so much. I when i was younger, me and my dad would walk around town. I used to carry a little ukelele around because I saw all the street performers playing their guitars. I remember sitting against his wall, pretending to be one of those performers while my dad watched from afar.
Elliot is always in my house so to speak....My Brother once said while listening "That's slit your wrist music” and it hurt me to hear that. I don't believe that. This style rips and rips through many of the tough chords of life. I don't know Elliot but He knew a big part of me. I love his melody and I think he lays it down in a way I have not heard but always welcomed hearing. Slit your wrist???? No....Not "now".....I'm enjoying this
@thekreal Forget people who say that Elliott's music is "emo". The only people who I consider emo are those who dress in such a way to fit into some clique. Elliott was just a very fragile and tortured artist. A real human being.
@kelpiscool23 - in general people are ignorant and retarded.... they would rather destroy something that they do not find beautiful rather than leave it alone for the ones that do.... humans are doomed because of the ones like the person that "tagged" this memorial
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Comments like..."I love you man..he totally understands me..he's a God among men..this song makes me cry..etc" shows who listens to this stuff...sad,emo,depressed people...Micheal Jackson...now THAT was music..all this dude wrote were poems backed by a terribly tuned guitar
@L4PD4P how do you have the right to say what's music and what's not? there are plenty of people that have no interest in michael jackson's music. Obviously many people are fans of elliot smith. His music is beautiful.
@L4PD4P This man wrote some ballin' music. Poems and songs are different. This is a song.
You don't need to be depressed to have emotions. To be "Emo" would mean to be emotional. Not everyone thinks apathy is cool and attractive, like you seem to.
If something invokes an emotional response, it's only a further clue to how good the music is written, it doesn't necessarily mean that because some one crys at the end of a song or movie, that they're depressed, or sad all the time.
@L4PD4P im sad because you are too ignorant to really appreciate elliott's music. michael jackson may have made some good songs, but he is nothing, nothing, on elliott.
@EyeHeartElliottSmith pfft......chill out there dude.....this guy is nowhere near the level that MJ was in....not saying he isnt talented.......but cmon dont compare this dude with michael jackson they arent even in the same genre u fucking dipshit....you are a fucking idiot.....
@EyeHeartElliottSmith you have nothing else to say? you haven said anything to me at all...and obviously you dont have anything to say back because you're stupid...dumb fuck.....dont tell me to do shit biitch.....ill do wahtever the fuk i want.....dont cry now...
@L4PD4P 'all the dude wrote were poems'. . .just thought I'd let you know you're a fucking idiot, man love it when people like you try to dis but end up just embarrassing themselves
@the70sman nnahhh dude was a faggot, liked lots of aids dick. likely committed suicide cause he found out he had aids and couldnt write stupid gay ass songs boooo whooo whoooo im so sad i have aids boo who whoo hahah fuckin elliot faggot smith
Somehow i always knew good music would save the world. Please learn about the Zeitgeist Movement and the Venus Project.................. well of course first TURN IT UP!
@dufftones Elliott was a martyr to the world. His music understands pain, and soothes you when you're the most down. We love him and recognize his contribution to humanity <3 <3 <3
How come I can't find a Newcast of Elliott's death? I mean you would think someone, somewhere would have reported it on the 5 or 6oclock news. I'm not trying to be morbid or anything I was just curious how they reported it.

@L4PD4P how do you have the right to say what's music and what's not? there are plenty of people that have no interest in michael jackson's music. Obviously many people are fans of elliot smith. His music is beautiful.

@L4PD4P This man wrote some ballin' music. Poems and songs are different. This is a song.
You don't need to be depressed to have emotions. To be "Emo" would mean to be emotional. Not everyone thinks apathy is cool and attractive, like you seem to.
If something invokes an emotional response, it's only a further clue to how good the music is written, it doesn't necessarily mean that because some one crys at the end of a song or movie, that they're depressed, or sad all the time.

@L4PD4P im sad because you are too ignorant to really appreciate elliott's music. michael jackson may have made some good songs, but he is nothing, nothing, on elliott.

The multi layered vocals are hauntingly soothing. Its kind of like a gothic folk pop. I love his music
His sense of melody was very nice as well. Lyrically he was clever and intuitive. RIP

@dufftones Elliott was a martyr to the world. His music understands pain, and soothes you when you're the most down. We love him and recognize his contribution to humanity <3 <3 <3

How come I can't find a Newcast of Elliott's death? I mean you would think someone, somewhere would have reported it on the 5 or 6oclock news. I'm not trying to be morbid or anything I was just curious how they reported it.

@coptersoisoi I have seen several-try local news for Silver Lake area, or California. There also was an MTV one by, I believe, Kurt Loder.
