Miss you Elliott, you are forever a string on my heart, and a gentleman to my ears. So very real the last bastion of music, forever live on, and well missed.
I remember first hearing this song and getting the chills. His voice is so fragile and you could barely hear it, the instruments have actually beat and the lyrics are just wow.... it's perfect!
He's pleased to met you underneath the horse/ In the cathedral with the glass stained black/ Singing sweet high notes that echo back.... An amazing introduction for the Either/or.
You cant completely dismiss the murder theory, but he was a junkie tormented by his demons and was known to regularly make threats to kill himself and probably did. Anyway his music lives on and this is a great tune.
he was a heroin addict for years, and failed rehab many times, thats a junkie in my eyes even if he did manage to clean up his act by the time he died.
Cobain definitely, $400 worth of smack a day at his worst! dnt really know much bout slash tbh. Dnt really know what else constitutes a junkie. we obviously jus define it differently.
well if u constitute it as 400 dollars a day then i can understand u saying it about smith,as i read at one stage he was smoking up 1500 dollars of heroin a day,but still,for all his problems the guys a legend in my book
This is silly, if you are addicted to Heroin you are a junkie. That deosn't take away from Elliott Smith's musical achievements, and it doesn't mean he was evil or anything, but lets be real here, he was a junkie.
i just love elliotts beauty or shoul i say steves inner sadness im so happy he was able to communicate his feelings for us to understand it helps when u need this stuff to show others how u feel its also nice to know ur not alone.
cant get tiered of that song...
