I fuckin love the sound of music... it's not like this clean-pop-shit it's a used and dump sound.... and it totally fits to his voice, the meaning and everything else.... I wish there could be more guys like him.... makin music for us.... workin for us, to make our lives more liveable.....
He was nominated for an Oscar,But lost to Celine Cumstain Dion,For a song she didn't even write herself.Being a Canadian,I apologize for her,and Loverboy,among others.At least we still have Neil Young and the Dayglo Abortions....
@loverainydayz17 I think you misunderstood my comment. I love the fact that this song has received so many views, it's a beautiful song! The point I was trying to make was that his music should have been heard by more people when he was alive... It's no secret that he wasn't a multi-platinum record selling artist in his life time... But he should have been.
Also, he DID NOT win the Oscar. Celine Dion did. You are the child. Know the facts before speaking them. hurp durp?
@Alkoholic666 ah dear friend... I agree 100% but great music nowadays is not appreciated at all, it's all about neon lights and plastic, a comedy of errors indeed. Nevertheless, the fact that his beauty existed means that there are other people that are just beautiful around us nowadays, we just need to open our minds.
Regards Alkoholic, hopefully you'll slow down on the alcohol soon :)
@alternative10000 I wish it wasn't so hard to get people to understand what I was trying to say.
Let me put it this way: I think it would have been great if 3,332,898 people would have known that there was an artist named Elliott Smith in the world, and they ALL bought his albums.. I think it would have been great for him to achieve that kind of success before he died. Not that he wasn't successful in his own right.
FYI - Actually, I hardly ever drink. It's a JOKE name.
everytime i hear his songs now it makes me want to cry cause i miss him soo freaking much,when i find out he died i criedfor days it made me felt worser inside to lose a brillant musician such as him rip elliott smith i still miss you my dearest sweet friend i never known you or met you but you still my friend.
If you like this kind of true-heart music you might like my music video. It's the only video on my channel. You don't have to watch it, not trying to spam. Just think some of you might enjoy it.
By far the greatest and most talented musician/songwriter of all time. This man helped me find myself, and his beauty literally forced me to pick up the acoustic. i can't stop playing his music. Thom yorke of radiohead is another genius, but we can't exactly compare apples to oranges.
@CodexRedBlueGreen I am in a similar situation. His music has touched my soul and mad me the song writer I am today. I just finished my first full length acoustic album (confront your world) Under the name The Tilt Room.You can hear samples on my reverb nation page, I think you would feel it. I am very proud of my work and hope to change many lives with the many expressions of my soul. Elliott gave me a new perspective on song writing. He really knew how to convey what he was feeling.
This is what i get from the song (in my humble.) He is talking about a girl he loved that either left him or died. He uses alchohol to help cope. He promises himself that he will be with her again someday and will regain the happiness they shared. He knows that this will probably not happen at least in this lifetime. Miss Misery refers to the way he feels about her and his life.
Hey everyone we are a band that has been inspired by Elliot Smith and we just put out a new song and our recording equipment isn't always the best but I wanted to see what some elliot smith fans would think. If you search Greed machine it will be the first link. Check it out if you want and let us know what you think.
@TheKenTerry well, people don't exactly write music for others. creating something meaningful sometimes seems to be the only thing that's worth living for.
@TheKenTerry I think you are missing the point...I believe farb meant that writing the music was Elliott's way of releasing a part of himself. We are just lucky he chose to share it with the world.
If you are looking for quality, original, hassle free, inexpensive, legal soundtrack music for your next Youtube video or short film....try "Rumblefish Friendly Music" Just follow the link in the "About Me" section on my page. Only $1.99 per track. (Some good songs...not just library music)
why do i feel like there aren't many musicians left who are full of sentiment like he used to be, loneliness and an intimate honest feel to them???? you guys listening to this should check out this album, something tells me you'd connect with it..... indie singer/songwriter Renee Goust: youtube[DOT]com/playlist?list= PL6D8C834C2494A3C
@akathasamurai I would go with the restored. All the screeches and squeaks and snaps, crackles, and pops are distracting from the music. Wonderful album. Enjoy.
back in the day, when my family was broken and i was introduced to the foster care system, there were no family members to care or save me, it was just misery. and every time i tend to have happiness, even to this day, misery knocks on the door reminding me that I am indeed a black sheep and dont belong. I slam the door in her face and keep going, and i can hear her still asking me if I... "Miss Her"
God bless us all. To recognize Divinity walking among us, and watch it tainted and destroyed. We elevate wickedness and martyr our saints. Elliott be praised for you are divine
@fungus137 I love this song, and I never thought it fit in the film either. I always wondered if Gus van Sant loved it so much he didn't care if it fit, and gave it a prominent place anyway.
I think, its completly misunderstood that Elliot smith's music should make you feel good about yourself, or help you ad i qoute " through your darkest hours" No... his music explains the imperfectness of the world as we know it. he used Phrases like" what a shitty thing to say" and that little sentence boils everything thats wrong and so good and brilliant at the same time down to such a small sentence and that is elliot smith that is the essence of brilliance. Miss Misery sums up everything.
Elliott Smith, you meant so much to so many people, including me. You got us through some of our darkest hours and helped us to save ourselves by giving us someone who understood who we were. Your music expressed the feelings so many of us went through and that was enough to ease all of our pain. I was very young when I started listening to you and from the first moment I heard you sing I knew I had someone to "go to", a place where I could look inside myself and find ME. u will b 4ever missed
I was also introduced to Elliot Smith from 'Good Will Hunting' when I was a confused, sad, and awkward teenager. For the first time in my life I felt that a singer really spoke to me and really reached me on a personal level. Thank you Elliot for getting me through those years. We miss you.
For you huge Elliott Smith fans out there who have spent time learning his music on guitar, go listen to "Georgia Georgia" and see if you hear anything familiar in the guitar part : )
I discovered his music a year ago today. I finally understand the tragedy that was the death of Elliott Smith. I'll miss you, you helped me get by when nobody else was around. Rest in Peace, Elliott Smith.
Hello my mentor. I'm here... just to tell you that your music in simplest way ever just changed my life. I met you by "Good Will Hunting" - my favorite film for all times. And I loved you like my brother, like Elliott. WE (Me and my Woman) had the best moments with your music. With your amazing feelings, voice, lyrics and fucking brilliant SOUL that you had to have. And we are still having. I hope that you see my words from the better land. We'll see each other in the better place. RIP
I love elliott smith sooo soo soo much. His music just has such a raw emotion and beauty that no other musician can express. I'm a musician and I try and write music that I think he would appriciate! I thank the world for allowing him to get his music out there. This is no where near his best song, so if he is a new discovery to you go out and buy an album, or listen to his other music! Thanks!!
@ShaneLover4Ever I believe his drug of choice was alcohol because its mentioned in some of his songs. Alcohol allows one to become spirited then eventually depressed. Then we want to get spirited again as a way out of our depression only to crash into despair again.
Being alcoholic can become quite the vicious cycle.
Ok um can we all just enjoy the music and just respect the Talent Elliot had while he was alive. I thought we were here to enjoy good music, not to see who gets the top comment. smh, let's just feel the music people and have anything we held in for today to just release it. Isn't that what music is here for? To find that release from your troubles? That along with praying to God is the reason why I live. Let's just enjoy ourselves please? Thanks you guys! =)
@JohnAndRowForever Yeah, good luck telling youtube users that. Ever since they implemented the comment vote up system, the comment section has been reduced to whoring out for thumbs up in the most retarded and moronic ways, usually copying each other. I don't even know why I bother to scroll down sometimes.
@zhokar I didn't realize that a person could be offensive in so many ways at once. You could have thrown in a racial slur as well, just in case calling paralyzed people retards wasn't quite enough.
@lovefromeponine bit stuck up, are we? my mom's in a wheelchair, i have a carte blanche, so bugger off. In any case, I feel that I was making a good point.
@zhokar Oh so you were calling your mother retarded? I guess that makes it ok then. oh wait, no, no it's doesn't.
If "making a good point" to you means "copy/pasting something without reading it" cool, but saying "oh my mom's in a wheelchair, I'm allowed to discriminate" doesn't make you look like less of an asshole.
@loveformeponine i'm not going to endulge further in discussing your narrow-minded set of cemented moral values. primarily because I don't give a fuck what kind of moral code an 18year old girl is trying to impose on me but also because I am no retard.
Moral imperatives like yours are only good on paper. Maybe you'll notice one day. Judging from your self-righteous reaction, you probably won't.
Elliott would think of all this petty internet arguing as pathetic. Fuck sake why did you have to leave us, i wish i could tell you in as little words as necessary what impact you have made on my life.
Wow......im sorry, but thumbs down the top comment. Elliott doesn't deserve to be used as a reason to get "Top Comment". No one deserves to die the way he did. Not Even Justin Bieber.
@xRVCAxROGUExBANGx You posted a comment on something im assuming was rude the top comment poster had said. I pretty sure they got a new top comment. im wondering if you remember what the old top comment was. im interested.
@xRVCAxROGUExBANGx please delete your top comment. perhaps u were being completely disingenuous and covertly attempting to achieve a top comment yourself; an endeavour which you have succeed. Elliot smith def deserves better than to have "Justin Beiber" referenced. If you truly believe what you said you will delete your comment, just as I will delete this comment should it become a "top comment". I implore viewers not to give me any thumbs up, save them for comments pertaining to the music.
@S0u11ess im not deleting Jack, and im not posting for "Top Comment". This should be a message to people. The message is to stop the Hate and bring Love , obviously a message YOU dont get. Im Sorry for you that you are so Focused on "TopComment"...haha ur just like the guy whos comment WE deleted. Go Spread Hate somewhere else, Kay?
why is he gone?
I fuckin love the sound of music... it's not like this clean-pop-shit it's a used and dump sound.... and it totally fits to his voice, the meaning and everything else.... I wish there could be more guys like him.... makin music for us.... workin for us, to make our lives more liveable.....

And we are still having. I hope that you see my words from the better land. We'll see each other in the better place. RIP

@krisxor he was a songwriting and technical genius, but more important than that, he was a truly good soul w/ a big heart.

@krisxor This post is beautiful, but there is a depressingly low probability of an "other land".

@PolishBerserker Probability is determined by calculation. There is no calculation related to supernatural speculation. The two are incompatible.

Let's all take a moment today to remember Elliott, who died eight years ago today. Rest in peace, Elliott, and God bless you always.

I love elliott smith sooo soo soo much. His music just has such a raw emotion and beauty that no other musician can express. I'm a musician and I try and write music that I think he would appriciate! I thank the world for allowing him to get his music out there. This is no where near his best song, so if he is a new discovery to you go out and buy an album, or listen to his other music! Thanks!!

@ShaneLover4Ever I believe his drug of choice was alcohol because its mentioned in some of his songs. Alcohol allows one to become spirited then eventually depressed. Then we want to get spirited again as a way out of our depression only to crash into despair again.
Being alcoholic can become quite the vicious cycle.

Ok um can we all just enjoy the music and just respect the Talent Elliot had while he was alive. I thought we were here to enjoy good music, not to see who gets the top comment. smh, let's just feel the music people and have anything we held in for today to just release it. Isn't that what music is here for? To find that release from your troubles? That along with praying to God is the reason why I live. Let's just enjoy ourselves please? Thanks you guys! =)

JohnAndRowForever 4 months ago
@JohnAndRowForever Yeah, good luck telling youtube users that. Ever since they implemented the comment vote up system, the comment section has been reduced to whoring out for thumbs up in the most retarded and moronic ways, usually copying each other. I don't even know why I bother to scroll down sometimes.
OldDole 4 months ago
@zhokar I didn't realize that a person could be offensive in so many ways at once. You could have thrown in a racial slur as well, just in case calling paralyzed people retards wasn't quite enough.

@lovefromeponine bit stuck up, are we? my mom's in a wheelchair, i have a carte blanche, so bugger off. In any case, I feel that I was making a good point.
zhokar 4 months ago
@zhokar Oh so you were calling your mother retarded? I guess that makes it ok then. oh wait, no, no it's doesn't.
If "making a good point" to you means "copy/pasting something without reading it" cool, but saying "oh my mom's in a wheelchair, I'm allowed to discriminate" doesn't make you look like less of an asshole.

@loveformeponine i'm not going to endulge further in discussing your narrow-minded set of cemented moral values. primarily because I don't give a fuck what kind of moral code an 18year old girl is trying to impose on me but also because I am no retard.
Moral imperatives like yours are only good on paper. Maybe you'll notice one day. Judging from your self-righteous reaction, you probably won't.

@zhokar So not calling people who are paralyzed retarded is only good on paper. Nice. Such a huge moral imperative.

@xRVCAxROGUExBANGx please delete your top comment. perhaps u were being completely disingenuous and covertly attempting to achieve a top comment yourself; an endeavour which you have succeed. Elliot smith def deserves better than to have "Justin Beiber" referenced. If you truly believe what you said you will delete your comment, just as I will delete this comment should it become a "top comment". I implore viewers not to give me any thumbs up, save them for comments pertaining to the music.
