So sad to know what transpired with Eliott after recording this song, it made me see how this Marley song can really express a really dark side that someone can find them self and its so sad that he used this song a as a precursor for suicide, LIFE is precious and one should live it to the fullest
@BobbyJohnson11 youre really not that wrong. i recall the last time i believed this kind of music sounded good was more than 12 years ago. its a good thing when somebody admires an artist enough to cover them but seriously, this does the marley version NO justice, and those who dont agree are most likely 14 and cut themselves when their parents ground them for a week.
he covered a number of songs that he liked. I'm sure he just did it for fun or because he liked the song. He has a number of Beatles songs he recorded
thank you 4 this

Jamaica, it's a great song...but Elliott Smith was killed by his girlfriend. His autopsy report is online.

It was a friend's birthday and he recorded this song for the friend. Don't know though if it was done on request or if he knew the song on his own.
I am guessing that the friend leaked it after his death. This is a Basement era track.
