    Sometimes I find myself coming back to watch this because it is that good.

    You good man? You produced some of the greatest ES covers ever, and then went to radio silence.

    Dude simply flawless, you got his essence and put ur soul into that beautiful music. So good to see others Elliott Smith's fans. The whole world should get to know a little of his art

    wow! Being a HUGE fan of Elliott's, I think you did this song justice and not to mention, made it your own. WELL DONE!

    This is, by far, the best cover I've ever heard of Distorted Reality. Played it clean, put your own touch on it, and you've got a great voice. Keep at it, man!

      Scott Liss is incredible. Give Modern Isolation a chance. It takes a couple listens. But it's brilliant. scottliss.bandcamp.com/album/modern-isolation

    You're the definition of perfection. I think Elliott would've been proud, you capture his vibe.

    It's rare that I like a cover better than the original especially when it comes to elliott smith! But my man you did it!

    You did Elliott's song pretty damn well, which is a hard thing to accomplish. I appreciate the time and effort you put into this. But now I just want more Elliott covers from ya, guy!

  • @zilttsep6273

    Absolutely fantastic cover mate. I bet Elliott would have felt honoured hearing this and as a huge fan I personally felt you did it justice. Be proud.

    @Kapin05 Před 5 lety +3

    The vocals kinda caught me off-guard at first but as I listen I'm really liking it.
    It's a really unique take, swapping the pessimistic almost angry tone for a more upbeat, pop-y vocal range; it's beautifully different whilst remaining accurate to the original.
    Subbed!

    My only criticism is that its too clean to actually sound like elliott lol, covers shouldn't be strictly about emulation I guess though. Great cover man.
