Post the best elliott Smith songs, I’ll start:
st. ides heaven
King's Crossing
my less obvious favorites:
pretty mary k (early version)
busted lip
some (rock) song
antonio carlos jobim
no confidence man
pretty much all of mic city sons
also little known fact elliott did a ween cover but sadly he only played guitar to mary lou lord's vocals rather than singing it himself. from jackpot studio sessions
youtube.com
the way he finger picks on Roman candle for it to sound like it's a flickering flame is absolutely genius and so intense. clementine is genius and the lyrics for Satellite are breathtaking. i could go on he's so good
my wife knew him and learned some stuff on guitar from him
true story
but im not a huge fan. maybe i should reconsider
the electric guitar on single file is also great. i'm a sucker for the clean tremolo effect and wish it was used more in music desu
Coast to Coast (song featured in vid)
condor ave is kino too
"im lyin down blowin smoke from my cigarette, little smoke signs that you'll never get"
all of his songs are so good to post the best ones you'd need to post pretty much all of them ^^
>condor ave
might be his best guitar part. it's almost like a solo, fucking crazy
Advance question is: what’s your least favorite Elliott song?
Last Call
Dont Go Down
Shooting Star
Single File
Talking to Mary
Junk bond trader
Roman Candle
The list goes on
prolly amity
Who here /independence day/?
say yes sucks
Elliott hated I Figured You Out, but I love the straight up acoustic version of that song.
I always skip Amity and In The Lost and Found
the real question here is who /splitzvile/ ??
bro i legitimately forgot about that song for at least the last ten years wew
I fucking love elliott lads goddamn genius
Pictures of Me
same here, i'm listening to him now after reading this thread lel
mic city sons is amazing
plus temper, bastard john, idler, stray and blackout
why is new moon so underrated
because a lot of artists' unreleased/b-side albums are trash. it's so good though. i remember picking it up at midnight on release day at the record shop.
Literally all of Elliott’s unreleased stuff is on par or better than his album songs. It’s depressing how they aren’t on spotify
Lost and Found is so good, one of my favorites
that's a great song!
based elliott was a Devo fan

no one mentioning junk bond trader? wtf m8s
