Anybody else like watching these kinds of videos and wondering where the audience members are now?

[QuistTV]

[PpPayton379]

Happy Birthday Elliott :) we miss you

[photent]

i'm tired of dancing on a pot of gold flaked paint

[Scottni2]

A truly beautiful performance. I hope this clip stays around for a very long time. Thx for the upload.

Elliott Smith and The Softie's the 2 artists that have had the most influence on me as a person I would literally give every penny to my name, every posession I own anything I could just to hear this peice of soul healing perfection

[nick4man3]

I've always loved the little idiosyncratic behavior that come with a live performance by Elliott Smith. The dead stare of concentration and the almost exaggerated breaths he takes before certain words, particularly.

It makes him seem so human.

majestic.

@tigerpantss thanks!

[tigerpantss]

this is such great quality thanks!!! could u possibly post more of this show?? elliott on his own and the softies??

[tigerpantss]

2 of my fav ppl elliott is sooooooo talented and so is rose i love all her bands!

[QuistTV]

@senordroolcup1 I wonder where the backing singer is now!

[Yoshiplace]

rose melberg of The Softies...i like this version

[plxplxkthx]

who's the backup singer? just outta interest

[YeahsodoI]

I can't get over this version. It sounds so beautiful and delicate.

@InsertNameHere145

why cant you look at as a different version of the song? we dont realy get to hear new elliott songs so open your mind a little and realize how lucky you are to even of seen this video!

[guitarsecretary]

@InsertNameHere145 Then don't watch this video? There's plenty of recordings of Elliott by himself here and everywhere else on the internet. This is a duet, not Rose acting as "back up singer".

[Yoshiplace]

@InsertNameHere145 what? that back up sounds great...a little different than the usual guitar/elliott

[InsertNameHere145]

Down with back up singers, we want to hear Elliott and Elliott alone.

[utarefsonmetushelac]

absolutely

[shotterslife]

you seemed to had the honour to see him live...you must be damn lucky!

if you have more footage of that, i would be more than thankful if you would post it! could you?

[pinkfloyd90]

really amazing.
