Elliott showed a lot of people how to scream at the top of their lungs while barely making a noise. The kids who connected with that will never forget it.
Aka inspired Conor Oberst.
Was also born in Omaha like Conor.
"Don't make a sound"
Died way too young. Dude was so good.
Damn he’s gone???? Damn man smh ❤️
@@TeezMcGee yep. Back in ‘03 at 34 years old. Allegedly stabbed himself twice in the chest during an argument with his girlfriend. Dude had a tortured soul but put out beautiful music.
@@joelfiasco that’s my brothers age. Yikes. Was born 3 years after my mom and I’m 32. lol. My fav musician of all time! It was Chiba! Haha. I kid... maybe...
Elliott’s music speaks to a group of people who’ve never had a voice or the courage to scream out their pains. His quiet singing feels like a friend calmly reassuring you that you aren’t alone.
Thanks Teez, you're the man for taking a moment to "lock in" and let this wash over you. Smith's lyrics man... Fuuuuuuuuck. He's a poet and a songwriter to his core, and the more I listen the more I appreciate.
It’s a testament to his talent that everyone is recommending different songs of his for you to react to next. I personally think Speed Trials would be great!
What song would you go with off Figure 8?
@@DSPHistoricalSociety happiness. Everything means nothing to me. Son of sam?
@@RustinChole too many to choose from?
I wish I could hear this song for the first time again.
Reacting to some Elliot Smith, that's bad ass. Like it.
Thanks for reacting, man. You're right, his music does make you want to sit back and feel it sometimes. His lyrics were simple but deep and powerful. Very underrated artist, I can't think of a bad song.
Uhh simple... I don't know if that's the word I'd use to describe Elliott's lyrics... like you said, simple but deep, so... not so simple
You should do his "Between the Bars" It's similar lyrically to Master of Puppets, but through alcohol personified, rather than drugs.
2nd that, Between the Bars is a GREAT song
It’s his most known song. I say do something more technical to show his talents.
@@yesmamnosir7997 I think you should always start with the most representative song.
@@patrickrasmussen2666 fair enough.
@@yesmamnosir7997 Though I can't wait to also hear No Name #2, Twilight, Happiness, Everything Means Nothing To Me, etc :)
Elliott was a special one. Such beautiful songs and a tragic end. RIP
It’s two guitars double tracked but he played it live sounding practically the same.
You should check out Son of Sam by Elliot Smith
Yes. The acoustic version is amazing too
@@dishields7808 especially the acoustic version!
I always love seeing Elliot’s work being loved. Thank you for sharing.
You're doing great work, I love watching your channel ;-)
Means everything fam!
Okay dude, I’m really impressed with your reaction catalogue. More Beastie Boys than anyone, Radiohead, Beck, and now Elliott Smith! That’s 4 of my 6 all-time favorites. Elliott is one of the greatest songwriters ever and lost way too young.
i love this song, makes me cry every time. RIP Elliott
Elliott Smith. Heavy, man, I love it. Check out In The Lost And Found or Wouldn’t Mama Be Proud
YES. Lost and Found is perfect! Not about addiction and shows off his talent! Perfect song for him to listen to first.
Great choice
Thank you for this...such a deep and sad song...addiction is so sad...literally ruining lives to the point of death.
Literally every Elliot Smith song is worth your time.
Very suspicious suicide. Apparently stabbed himself in the heart with a knife.
Twice. After a row with his girlfriend. I don't believe it was suicide at all and i don't know how it wasn't investigated more
@@IndieRockerHippy there were two different autopsy results too from what I recall.
@@MrGitsnShiggles such a crazy case
@@MrGitsnShiggles She was basically a trained nurse, you pull out the knife from his heart?? Elliot was coming off everything at the time, pissed her off due to withdrawals she killed him.
@@jamiefugazi6974 Love ya friend.. but the opposing death certs are also troubling.
Nice vid. Elliott Smith is one of the most underappreciated songwriters ever and thanks for shining a light on his talent.
2:45 am.....that's a head trip and amazing
Just hope you do more sonfs of his. His whole catalog is solid to the point where I dont even have a recommendation.
great artist choice. RIP Elliott :(
Elliott Smith's music is like a fireworks factory blowing up: so sad, yet so beautiful
Elliott Smith did art imitating life better than any musician every. He’d take you higher and higher only to have a breakdown. Listen to “Go By” for the perfect example. Notes and his singing get higher with the notes until here’s a complete breakdown.
It's about fiending and the desperate means users find to their end.
Being a longtime addict, this song hits. The first time I heard that line,
“Leave me alone, you oughta be proud that I’m getting good ‘marks’”
I had goosebumps all over. Felt like I had the wind knocked from me.
@@goldenageofdinosaurs7192 Reminiscent of the Morphine Line, "She ripped the wings right off of my back. She whispered deeply, keep it on the track. You know you're no angel... no angel any more."
Loved it! Loved it! Would like to see you do one from each of his albums!
Four more blocks plus the one in my brain
“Getting Good Marks” is an A-tier heroin pun.
He stabbed himself in the fucking chest. Rick and Morty was right ....why? You were so talented man
Damn until this video I didn't realize how deep these lyrics were. I never liked this song even though I've heard and loved most of elliotts songs. Those lyrics are amazing.
Needle in the hay
Now on the bus
Nearly touching this dirty retreat
Falling out 6th and Powell a dead sweat in my teeth
Gonna walk walk walk
Four more blocks plus one in my break
Down downstairs to the man
He's gonna make it all ok
I can't beat myself
I can't beat myself
And I don't want to talk
I'm taking the cure so I can be quiet
That’s why I think it was a bad song for him to listen to first. For one it uses 2 string “punk rock” chords and second it’s about heron addiction and not everyone can relate so they won’t know what he’s almond about.
You should do more Elliott. "Between the bars" "Waltz #2" or "say yes". Jeff Buckely is another great one. "Last Goodbye" "Grace" or "lover you should've come over"
One of my favourites from this record, I highly recommend either the next song, Christian brothers or good to go. That being said the whole record/discog is s tier.
He was a special kind of talented.
Elliott smith saved my life after a transition brain injury. His music is the only thing that could touch me. Pls play son of sam
Also it’s one guitar but two recordings of his singing voice.
He's mixing this in a basement. Lo fi brilliance. RIP Elliott 🙏
Wow. Deep track here. Nice one
Amazing talent taken from us way to soon all songs way deep
Please react to Elliot Smith - King Crossing
💪
No need for apoligies for zoning out. That means the music is working.
I'd go for something bigger, production-wise, just to hear Elliott working. XO or Figure 8. Bled White is one of my faves. Anything really. Elliott is worth diving deep into.
It's one guitar a lot of his songs will sound like there is more than one but a lot of times its him just playing 1
💙 GOAT
I was born in 89', lost a lot of friends my age to heroin.
There's an over dubbed acoustic guitar in some parts.
You should listen to Shooting Star by Elliott Smith. A heavier tune of his..
i fuck this video wow awesome job !
I think with a lot of Elliot Smith songs, it speaks to depression which is numb, and is not necessarily the most entertaining content. Also, a lot of people who have not or are not currently experiencing depression don’t want to hear it. It’s not a knock on anyone. It’s just not for everyone.
Check out "King's Crossing" in your free time. The masterpiece that killed him. Saddest song I've ever listened to, especially b/c of the way Elliott had to go.
Give me one good reason not to do it! “Cause we love you!” We of my fav songs cause of my personal addiction but like Needle In The Hay prob not the best song for someone who has never touched the stuff to rlly get it. ❤️
nice video
Elliott Smith is soooo good. But this track isn't what shows that talent. I hope you react to more from him.
Bill Acikalin Yeah, this is more powerful in the lyrics, but doesn’t necessarily showcase his melodic skills as much.
Kinda a clue lyricaly on his suicide or possibly homiside...
Every time you do an Elliott Smith song you’re gonna have a bunch of views. He’s got a cult following like no other. I may or not be within this cult. Haha
Its about drugs
You should’ve listened to some of his later work. Yes, this is a beautiful song but uses 2 string punk rock “chords” and doesn’t show his talent. Listen to Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Memory Lane, Go By, In the Lost and Found, Everything means nothing to me. Plus this song is about heroin addiction so not everyone can relate.
