Elliott Smith - 10 - Sweet Adeline

[zararity]

1:44 The most beautiful moment I've seen in any Elliott video. A big grin on his face at the ever so slightly out of tune backing harmonies. Beautiful!

[HardVagabonde]

It's my name x) <3

[TheRubiksCube]

This just might be my favorite song of his.

[1pedrocomo]

[wirsindhelden0]

[brokenimages]

janet weis i love you !!

[skippyrandom]

nice version.

miss you elliott.

[ShokyShrox]

3rd post, sorry. Does anyone know what guitar he's playing. I was gonna say an es-335 but it has p90 pickups, Epiphone casino maybe?

[duegold]

yep thats definitely a casino

[coupleofzeros]

um, it's a Gibson 330.

[ShokyShrox]

I dont see why we always have to come back to the drug reference thing. It doesnt matter, the songs are there for you to see them as you wish. Take them for your own guys and until you have something positive to say about them keep it to yourself.

[ShokyShrox]

@PennyRoyal

Smith didnt start taking hard drugs until about 2000. He did have a pill and alcohol problem though

[tigerlilly2012]

sweet! add a line!

[difenbachia]

who is the woman in the drums??

[hserokdivad]

janet weiss

[difenbachia]

Thanks Hserokdivad!

[ZRN959]

@hserokdivad she is/was everywhere....

[hserokdivad]

@ZRN959 Yeah, she's still performing with Quasi alongside Joanna Bolme. I've seen her a couple of times last yr, and she is absolutely INCREDIBLE. I have vid of her on drums @ sxsw which I will upload... eventually.

[schwarzblatt]

@hserokdivad Janet has a band called Wild Flag that is also very good.

[hserokdivad]

@schwarzblatt Awesome!! Thank you so much for informing me of that... I'm listening to Romance right now. This is great!

[PennyRoyaleTea]

I wonder if that Bass Player was a fellow addict :\

Kinda sad.

He should have been around better people.

Like the Jesus or Buddhas of the world.

[genothefox]

everyone tried to help him, and he hated it.

[PennyRoyaleTea]

Probably because he knew they couldn't help him & only offered the obvious advice.

[baker54480]

too bad he became an addict at the end of the figure 8 tour. not the XO tour

[thesuzies]

??? Sooner

[PennyRoyaleTea]

There were a lot of drug references BEFORE figure 8. So saying that he wasn't an addict until then is nonsense. Maybe he was introduced to heavier drugs during that time, but I'm sure he took other things before that...

Even alcohol is a drug. Think "Between the Bars"

[thesuzies]

?

I read his life got way better. He ceased all drugs and addiction.

His death will remain a mystery.

I don't think he killed himself. -_-

[TripNDazy]

i dont think so either....

just too many questions.

[thesuzies]

Sam wasn't a druggie.

[PennyRoyaleTea]

I didn't say he was. I said I wondered.

A lot of the time, when one band member is on drugs, another one is as well.

[lilblznazn]

aw i love it when he smiles like he did at 1:43

[mymayapapaya]

I always thought he was laughing at the drummer's (janet?) bad singing. lol

[tatelabianca]

ah, it's mymayapapaya! the one who's given us so many amazing ES videos! all hail! cheers

[mymayapapaya]

lol ♥

[sk8tolive123]
