elliott smith a fond farewell to my friend

[stainedglasseyes1]

I love you and I wish you were here Elliott, XO<3

[MrJojeeeable]

goodbye Andy. sorry i never took the chance to apologize, but i am sorry and you will be missed

[Mswasabi22]

Miss you so much especially today on the anniversary of your death. I adored you alive and still do in death.

[bearandwoot]

I went from trolling hard on other shit to coming to this and not trolling. This is not something people should fight or troll about.

[spacebetweensound]

I've stood in front of the figure 8 wall and it is a good feeling being where this man walked. Why did he have to die?

[bearandwoot]

@spacebetweensound Well didn't he kill himself?

[spacebetweensound]

@bearandwoot there's a lot of controversy as to whther he could have killed himself in the fashion he supposedly killed himself. i personally think no one could have killed their selves that way.

[fossilfuelmusic]

IMO people who suffer from serious depression are blown away by what this man was able to convey. not only was his depression obviously the most crippling and detrimental type, but he managed to EXPRESS HIS FEELINGS. Wow, that is unprecedented in mental illness, even among trained musicians. STRONG DUDE

[WOWurGey]

I feel if you wanna be a little bitch and kill yourselff then do it stop wasting everyones fucking time and try to get attention if ur really man enough then jump off a bridge or pull the trigger stop talking about it and just fucking do it pussy's enough said...

[sethm81392]

@WOWurGey You don't have the mental capacity to type a readable comment on an online video sharing website which really makes me doubt your ability to understand anything behind the idea of suicide. There are Youtubers out there like Smosh & Makemebad. I think they'd be a little more on your level. Check them out, amigo.

[kallithus]

@sethm81392 Hey i love smosh but i also have been listening to Elliott Smith for years . I got what you were trying to say but i just wanted to say that both are amazing Rip Steven

[chillyrooster]

a happy high and a suicide the only things u ever tried.....sad but great lyrics

[msrosebush]

elliott smith's music is more relevant to the world today-the bittersweet memories of the past and how we, as a people, blew it. rest in peace, elliott, you were a true prophet-i wish you a fond farewell.

[mgmorrell]

You can only even acuse somebody of a sin if your have 2 or 3 eyewitnesses to the sin. Otherwise YOU must be punished with the punishment that sin requires. Stop guessing and judging. Just be thankful for the music he gave us.

[connolly10]

after appeal from his family to a verdict of suicide the case was reopened and remains open. His girlfriend tried to claim rights to his estate which is being contested by his family. The case remains open after a specialist stated in deat by suicide the knife pushes the victims clothing into the body, this was not the case in this incident!

[flembot10]

what happend him?? like how he die?

fantastic song!

[hscura]

he got into a fight with his girlfriend and while she was in the shower he stabbed himself in the heart twice... very sad.

[IntoTheAlone]

R*I*P Steven..... we love you even though we've never met you......and we all wish you were back

[WhiteRabbit926]

@IntoTheAlone "I'm never gonna know you now but, I'm gonna love you anyhow"

[onthinice766]

RIP Jay

Hope the musics as beautiful where you are

[triangletheorytrey]

RIP-ES

[JMascisIsMyHero]

[triangletheorytrey]

[SaraMUSt]

[studbelly]

jesus jerkoff is a unbelievably ignorant

little man. one day when you grow up your gonna hate yourself for being so incredibly stupid. as a corrections officer your the type i have to save from getting raped or abused.....grow up idiot!!!!!

[runezonerocks]

dude instead of fighting how about listening to the song what if this happend to some1 u love then what would u do call them emo or fag listen elliott smith dident kill himself to be emo he couldent take the pain i dont blame him for doing it because people act like little kids then he killed him self because he was depressed and doing drugs btw idc what u call me oh well words dont hurt me only people who are mean just listen to this song its a great song and its also very very sad rip elliott

[PunkAsFuck111]

thanks man. im glad someone realizes this stuff and dosnt jump to conclusions.

[goldflakedpaint123]

@runezonerocks words do hurt. but your right. its wrong to talk shit on elliott here like really? your going to do that? bahh people are so frustrating.

[mattyconchatty]

To all of you...i don't give a shit if he killed himself or got hit by a fucking train. He made amazing music, left it here for us to listen to and enjoy. so just fucking enjoy his beautiful amazing songs.

[sethm81392]

@mattyconchatty

Couldn't have said it better. RIP E.S.

[bringmetheKYLE]

lmfao nothing jesusjerkoff or the other guy said actually made sense, theyre both loners who need to intimidate people behind a screen about fucking the persons parents when theyve never even seen a girl naked unless it was on a computer.

no, you did not have sex with my parents,

no i am not emo for liking elliot smith.

i am just a normal person who has a normal life.

grow the fuck up you scum.

you have to be either by some 12 year old prick or some 40 year old virgin.

god.

[rotflcoptertothemax]

you really piss me off. how can you think that it's funny?

[hendrixvoodoo]

People who enjoy Elliot's music might check his videos out once every couple of weeks, and the guy who hates him views them once a day. I finally know what irony means.

[kidicarusss]

wish he was still here. thanks for video

[kaytizzzl3]

go sign the memorial wall!

[triangletheorytrey]

Where is the memorial wall for Elliot Smith? I really enjoy Elliot Smith's music. I'm a new listener, but it didn't take me long to be captivated by his purity in lyrics. I was just wondering where the memorial wall is. I would appreciate it if you could get back to me.

[colin82793]

Silver Lake on Sunset Boulevard in LA, I think... I read somewhere it's 4334 Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles, California. Sorry if any of this is inaccurate...

[parasympathicus]

Los Angeles

[Av3ng3dPunk]

4334 Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles, California

Late reply, I know...

[kallithus]

@triangletheorytrey 4334 sunset boulevard , Los Angeles California 

[ashdalte]

...i'm crying...

[roma11n]

where did you get the pic at 3:06?

[ryaneldr]

what an amazing human being. watch his interviews. RIP Elliott. You will be forever missed

[smolo67]

why aren't people more skeptical of his gf at the time?

[Dredawg42]

A. I'm guessing the evidence didn't support it.

B. She probably wouldn't have been able to overpower him.

[chopperjoblin]

he is a ledgend, he didnt have 2 commit suicide, forever missed

[Yihud]

Everyone has the right to commit suicide, so,. its not really weakness, and I would say that I don't respect him for it,. but i don't disrespect him for it. Everyone follows there own course.. he had his time, and he was lead to that choice, which was his.

[Magimon21]

Amazing....just amazing

[crimmy0204]

the amount of emotion put into eliott's songs is not emo by any stretch of the imageination.... it can only be described as soul. rip bud!

[dilutedwithdilaudid]

u said it...

[isolationeitheror]

true talent

[freakshowv]

R.I.P C-MILL

[Pyrethryn]

Can't say I respect anyone for not fighting life the only way that one can, which is living through the shit; but I can respect the talent. Having said that, Mr. Smith, you will be missed.

[Tonedefdom]

and what do you know about depression Mr? It's not as easy as waking up and saying "shit happens".

[Pyrethryn]

I can only speak for moderate to severe clinnical depression, which I had/have- it's been a lot better lately since I figured out how to deal with it. But what do I know? I know this: 8 years of on and off counselling (with three different therapists), 3 years of Prozac, 6 months of Zoloft, 3 years of Welbutrin, countless books and information packets, personality tests and naturopathic cures.

That's what I know about depression.

[Tonedefdom]

Hands up, I'm sorry, it must be tough for you. But the difference is, you had the drugs designed to help the fight, he had the ones that made him give it up.

Good luck.

[futureblues26]

It's basically a test-and-try process, because no psychiatrist or doctor will know how each person reacts to each medication. Most people - depressed or not - will have depressive reactions to at least a few anti-depressants. Some depressed people are bodily-resistant to treatment, period. It sucks.

[Ihaveabenjina]

just accept that lifes shit and make the best of it. this current method of society sucks, so lets enjoy it the best we can.

[RubixVF]

This song is amazing, Eliott was and is still amazing, RIP.

[bodiddleybodiddley]

veins full of disappearin' ink, vomiting in the kitchen sink, disconnected from the missin link..it's not my life. Just a fond farewell

[joeburgarino]

i wish everyday that he was still with us, but i bet hes making lots more beautiful music up in heaven, rest in peace elliott

[gavinthinks]

Very awesome. Great job.

[GoreMan99]

I am so glad I didn't follow the path Elliot did because I would leave so much behind I wasn't thinking about at the time. At least he was there in spirit with his music to get me back on the path I am on now.

[fanboyfriedday]

wow this vid was added may 07 your a little late, but u know what it doesnt matter when cause tributes to one of the greatest of all is always nice. i miss him to man, but his music will always live on.

[COW546]

I Think you did a great job...

[riptaylor13]

A fond farewell...rip to my big brother. Great vid.

[transatlanticrachael]

i love this song and the videos good
