@mikesnow232 thanks for recommending June. I like it..Besides Elliott Smith, Bright Eyes and Calexico give me the same feeling..
-
I love Elliott Smith, but I guess I don't see how his music makes anyone depressed. His music is one of those things worth living for.
-
@mikesnow232 Yeah man, I often feel the way you do. Listen to Nick Drakes " The Day is Done". Its hell of a masterpiece that shakes your soul..
-
very true man, this song in particular really is beautiful lyrically. forgetting the subject matter in areas of it, it's a love song really. same as say yes: "im in love with the world through the eyes of a girl". pure, indefinite genius, and something that really touches the heart.
-
@Zippidyduda A lot of his music is very sweet, but undeniably, desperately sad. I think he probably never intended to write a 'sad song' in all of his short life, but he was in pain and unblocked, so it came across.

@mikesnow232 I'll drink alone to that

I hate that people, even fans, have portrayed Elliott as the "sad" guy in music. "Everything he plays is so sad," people say. "What a beautifully sorrowful song."
Listen to his music. He has a lot more to offer than just depressing lyrics. He conveyed all sorts of emotion, on both sides of the spectrum, through his lyrics and his music. He was a brilliant musician, and saying he wrote "depressing" music does him absolutely no justice.
RIP Elliott, your music got me through a lot in my life.

Loneliness is a human condition. although I get depressed a lot, I don't hope to ever find someone who will truly understand me. thus, I try to love myself for who I am, and just go with the flow. solitude, one could say, is beautiful. and this kind of raw music really makes me feel that way. I'm constantly on the look out for more music like this, so if you have any suggestions please let me know. Also, if there are any other soul searchers out there,you should look up "June by Genry Gene"
