Elliott Smith Say Yes Tribute

[shadrussell]

seems like there is a large group of individuals JUST learning about Elliott.

I've been addicted to his amazing melodies for years now.

Check out heatmiser if you want some idea of where he came from.

[bzush21freestyle]

I am one of that large group and he is awesome either way.

[AlexStevens42]

very well put together\

1:55 to the end of the song is beautiful

[horizon]

Thank you very much. I still like watching it to this day.

no words can express

[notyoursavior78]

I love this song, I didn't know people loved this song as much as I did. Either/Or though is incredible as is all his work, I heard.

[purpledrohaze777]

@notyoursavior78 Dude I see you everywhere on YouTube. American Football, Empire! Empire!, The Appleseed Cast, etc. are bands that I always see you commenting on, plus the music that upload yourself. You've got a great taste in music, and because of you I've discovered so many awesome bands. =)

@purpledrohaze777

heh yeah I remember you. It's cool to be recognized for my comments on various videos at times because I do remember most people as well if I see them comment in many different videos. Cya! Enjoy the music!

[jrmagic43]

This song is so good i simply adore it and i miss you elliott RIP

[Bombdiggity207]

Hes so brilliant, its a shame his life ended so soon

[mikeyetherin08]

my favourite artist at the moment i just cant stop listening to his music and it makes me a total sad sack i could never see him live

[notyoursavior78]

I woulda loved to see him live! Dude can write songs and has a heavy metal mouth (he said it) in Basement on a Hill: King's Crossing. :)

[ruegamaterassisrl]

I miss you...R.I.P.

[LateGreatBillHicks]

Great video you have made, I've just gotten into E.S. over the past 2 months. Though I liked Good Will Hunting music since 1998, I just didnt know who sung most of it.

But I see now E.S. is really something very special, he seemed so unassuming and modest. And his vocals, writing and guitar work is Beatles-good.. his songs from Good Will H wouldnt sound out of place on The Beatles 'Rubber Soul' album.

It is heart-breaking how he died.

RIP Elliott & God bless.

[mooninites755]

very good 4.5/5 so ill just give you a 5

[mellse]

Great job man

xo

[nadjapausch101]

I absolutely ADORE the photo of Elliott at 1:22 through the song.

He was such a beautiful person, and lives in our hearts forever.

[LateGreatBillHicks]

To nadjapausch101 [& whoever else], re the pic of Elliott in this vid at 1:22 you like..

do you know if you press the 'PrintScreen' button on your pc, the comp takes a snapshot of the whole screen?

You can then paste the pic from pc clipboard to something like the simple Paint program, then cut out the part of the snapshot you want to keep.

[I'm sure this is really old news to most probably, but it's v v useful to the folks who've yet to learn it]

[stillwaterotter]

nicely done man, thoroughly enjoyed it.

[stacklestahl]

thanx this was a really nice tribute incorporating the interviews and everything. one of the betters ones i have seen

[horizon]

Thank you. I'm glad the couple of hours I put into this gave you some enjoyment.

[tragg2]

Your efforts are really appreciated.

[matt21randyrhoads]

first song i heard by him too..i think he sounds a lot like john lennon

[smokethatcone]

what a beautiful man

[bansheekisses]

I thank you for using a nice balance in the tribute.

I know a lot of musicians who play because they love it. Some people are humbled by becoming famous and some just cant take the pressure of all the constant attention.

IMHO: I think Elliot was one of those who enjoyed writing and singing. He probably would of been one of those guys who would of been just as happy playing in a park as a nameless nobody.
