All spit and spite, you're up all night, and down every day. A tired man with only hours to go

just waiting to be taken away....my favourite musician. ever.

This video makes me happy. A cute drummer, a happy kid rocking out, and of course, Elliott Smith.

@42pigs I'm not sure I really know anybody who acts like that. It sounds more like you just hang out with superficial losers. Maybe that's what inspires you to log onto youtube and self-indulgently talk about listening to records, like it's an accomplishment. You obviously already know this, but I think you deserve to hear it straight from our lips. We all know in our hearts you're the only real Elliott Smith fan.

[schwarzblatt]

Janet Weiss is the coolest.

[Rhapsodyss]

Those "oohhh"s at the end... Just, yes.

it's great to watch all the hipsters nowadays throw his name around with a couple songs they might have heard and pretend to be in on everything elliott smith was, and still is.... while i sit here and sing every lyric to every album quietly to myself, enthralled in the depth and layers of this musical genius.
