[ItsKerrrry]

I thought I was listening to Because by The Beatles when I heard the intro haha

[OtakuPoot]

@ItsKerrrry This was the first Elliott Smith song I ever heard, and I loved it because it reminded me so much of the Beatles :P

[amrl]

Elliott Smith a cappella... it only could be simply perfect

[13imapirate]

I don't know why I listen to this song when it just makes things worse.

[mommibobbi]

@13imapirate Because it is better to listen and realate then to feel alone and like no one understands. You are the only one who can amke things better :)

[OriginalShrimpVendor]

I must have listened to this a million times before I realized the whole song was basically JUST vocals. I was astounded... Astounding.

[reallyocean]

@WhereAreYouArienette What do you think he means by "I guess that I just do" though? Do you think he's confessing he just doesn't care enough to find out the real problem, or that it's quite possibly his 'default' emotion so he "just does?" Or what?
