Elliott Smith - 4 - LA

[bmurphy3000]

It's such sad music but it makes me feel so good... By far my favorite musician of all time

[Longsleeeves]

Man I only really discovered Elliott smith like 5 years ago. I live in Toronto! If I new about him back then I could of seen him! AARGH

[wirsindhelden0]

i know the rule is "nobody's perfect"

but...i just watched it happen

[moree21]

PERFECT!

[MissMisery123]

WOW!!!!! Elliott was amazing.....

[nvmelden]

@MissMisery123 He still is.

[halifuckinfan]

This song is AMAZING.

I prefer this version millions of times more because his voice doesn't blend into the music to the point of losing the lyrics like the electric version does.

[Sergio0Oo]

he was a sick guitarrist, asweome!!

[travenb]

i have no idea why this guy didn't get huge. i know he had plenty of issues, but his music was so good. it's a shame more people haven't heard it.

[genericsavings]

@travenb Dude, he did make it big! He was on the Oscars. =)

[travenb]

yeah, looked like he had soo much fun with that...lol

[valahogy]

@travenb its a very hard listen , very rewarding tough but not all people can listen to such music

[ROBLOXiansRejct666]

he was such a good artist

[ROBLOXiansRejct666]

Did he die?

I love this song

[Tarusquee]

@ROBLOXiansRejct666 yes

[Somethingpower]

world in a world

[candymiser]

um... someone PLEASE TEACH ME THE BEGINNING!!! or make a tutorial!!

[Buckstrop55]

its called tremelo, look it up, what it is is strumming down with your thumb and each string down you go you strum the high string with your ring middle and index, or middle and index.

[yanfrom1987]

NO WORDSTOOGOOD

[JesusRebellion]

What he's doing at the start is amazing. Sounds like two different guitars.

[zwfwrestling]

This isn't the Lee's Palace show. This is the Town Hall show from NY. The Lee's Palace show was a full band affair.

[shotterslife]

who cares? its a beautiful song,its a beautiful talented man...what more could i want?

[sexybob667]

[sucramnormark]

He is dead.

[987657654321]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[mario1136]

@186 You'll see him in heaven.

[andyboy667]

Wow.... speechless

[spartanfan10]

Really saddening to know I will never get to see him play. What a brilliant man.

[dschengis]

Could some gifted person please post a tutorial

to play this track like he does?

might be difficult, but I would really like to play this version on my own! thanx a lot!!!

[rustleleafs]

That shitty chair bothers me....it's should have been a throne.

[AcousticMusicianESWS]

yes however this just shows that the greatest musician doesn't need a whole lot. I mean he only needs that guitar to make what sounds like a symphony in my ear.

[nvmelden]

@rustleleafs I know!! Couldn't they find a better chair. That looks like the chair I sit during my school assemblies.

[Mary64745642]

@rustleleafs lol true

[clf23Hunter]

@rustleleafs Do you really think he comes off as the kind of guy who would have been comfortable sitting in a throne?

[rustleleafs]

@clf23Hunter Just a figure of speech, I understand what you're saying though

[alamedaxo]

what i would do to have those fingers...

[thebigredfish]

That's what she said.

[ElimRem]

i once stood in front of one of elliott's shows and im still amazed

[brandonlau]

This is his best live set that ive seen. Pretty much perfect

[charlyhebdo]

watch elliott playing some figure 8 songs live is the best things u can hear, so special...

[AndyConny]

ABSOLUTE BEAUTY

[xixnxvxaxlxixdx]

i love it!

[cwruomar]

Elliott looks like a fat little kid in these vids :)  LA was stuck in my head last night and this morning for some reason so before work this morning, i satisfied the worm in my ear

[ladypictureshow66]

Awesome! Love, love, love this song!

[beatlemaster]

i can't help but chuckle at his leg...it's almost like it's twitching at parts. hehe.

[millerwoodfilms]

he's got sumthin in his pocket?

[brokenimages]

holy crap i love that triplet in the intro

[clevermint37]

this is aint the Lees Place video, this is from town hall in new york 2000

[kaskaskia17]

[skubz]

[Mary64745642]
