My favourite Elliott Smith track.
I feel it completely
when the song kicks in after that intro its like YEESSSS
Same for me.
seriously. i remember hearing this song first on myspace back when i was in my teens and being blown away. still am.
@@Animal14722 same for shooting star
It's 2016. We're still here, thinking of you fondly.
Stasi Hollis now in 2018!
Right, 2018.
wish I found him earlier
Wrong, it is clearly 2019, you fool
I literally owe Elliott's music my life. You hear people cheesily say how musicians speak their world for them, but Elliott describes me in ways nothing else can. I miss you Elliott.
This is the most honest and greatest songwriter of all-time.
No-one comes close.
It's a special group of us thankful Elliot came across our lives in this upside down world we exist in.
Not many people are lucky enough to have Elliot cross their path...
He crossed both of our paths and for that I am grateful.

One of the greatest songs ever
Must agree
People say that about a lot of songs but this legitimately IS one of the best songs ever.
Unbelievably great song
rip Dylan and rip Elliot thanks for the memories
Dylan's part in Mindfield was insane. He had so much pop and style. His impossibles were so good. Rip
I'm glad I wasn't the only one thinking this. Two legends gone. RIP.
I will alwaus remember Elliotts voice with Dylan skating in sync. RIP too 2 legends 💔🌹
mike dworak they’re in heaven skating and jamming together
Yes
Dylan’s part is how I discovered Elliott Smith. Been listening off and on ever since.
@@InTheMindOfDavid same! Dylan had a great taste
Elliott lives forever through his music. To anyone as sad and sick as I am, this record, more than any, speaks the truth. This album is bold.
yep, what he said
Don't wear ur disease on ur sleeve like a badge worthy of pride. I get it, but don't narc on urself

This right here...telling how it is
@@stella-vu8vhBruh c'mon
@@stella-vu8vh Everyone here, listening to this song (and any Elliott song for that matter), is here for a reason... I personally respect everyone's reasons for being here, we are all unique, united by his amazing music
One of the greatest albums of all time.

My favorite is "Ostrich and Chirping" 😇
That is a certainty for sure!! 😂❤️🔥👁💡🎥🤩
@@jeffreyleppard6049 How dare you
He's fading, keep that star bright.
Not for me. I only mount in appreciation. We're some sixteen years into this appreciation. He fades not for me.
@@jekylwhispywell u know i dont think the user's referencing 'elliott's fading' in itself like it's a thing more of a song quote. Reads like it. May be wrong
So fucking emotional. When i feel art is dead ill come back here
My favorite song ever....never gets old...never will...Misss you Elliot...hope your demons let you loose on the other side
Like balanced chaos. Wonderful. So orchestrated.
oh elliott. i'm so tired. thanks for this. your music keeps saving me
I'll never forget the first time I heard Elliott Smith. An online friend sent me an old phone via the mail that had either/or on it a few years ago, changed how I approached things to put it simply.
Thank you Elliott. You're always gonna be remembered.
Similar here, it was an old bandmate, we were both also huge fans of Pink Floyd and Nick Drake, and he sent me "Everything Means Nothing To Me".... I needed to listen to more after hearing that... Elliott is truly a gift to us
One of my favourite songs ever. when it really kicks in, it f'n GROWLS! I wish he was alive today to crank the hell out of it...and be here now. Love him so much.
For real...
this man changed my life at the young age of 15
Love you Steven Paul "Elliott" Smith
I was 15 as well and in need of this music. Love him so dearly for it.
I am fifteen, living that same feeling :)
im here rn needin this
I chance found my elliot smith tshirt from years ago. I remembered his music got me through a lot. Now I’m here... because it found me again and i need these tunes.
Gone but not forgotten.
this one goes EXTREMELY hard
For some reason, I only listen to this record when I am sad, but it is just so damn incredible. Somehow I lived in Portland and never listened to Eliot Smith until he was gone. I don't believe in regret, but I regret that I never heard Elliot live.This record is just a masterpiece from beginning to end.
4:41 the descending glissando on the piano always makes me smile.
Pushy preacher
Last stop for a resolution
End of the line, into confusion so go
Go see what's there for you
Nothing new
Nothing new for you to use
I've got no new act to amuse you
I've got no desire to use you you know
Anything that I could do
Never be good enough for you
If you can't help it just then leave it alone (leave it alone)
Leave it alone (leave it alone)
Yeah just forget it
It's really easy
I believe I'll forget it too
Still you're keeping me around
Till I finally drag us both down
Pulling feathers out your hat
Yes a believe let's come to that
You belong
Tagging along
And I belong in your zoo
so I wait for confirmation that your never gonna use your starting gun
Unless it's me it sounds like being him just wasn't that much fun
Anything that I could do
Never be good enough for You
If you can't help it then just leave it alone (leave it alone)
Leave me alone (leave me alone)
Yeah, just forget it
It's really easy I'll just
Forget it too
Coast to coast (coast to coast)
Coast to coast (coast to coast)
I'll do what I can so you can be what you do
Coast to coast (coast to coast)
Coast to coast (coast to coast)
I'll do everything I can so can be what you do
Coast to coast
Coast to coast
Circuit writer comes every fifth Sunday
Oh my Lord I fell asleep one day
Anything that I could do
Is there anything that I could do
Is there anything that I could do
That someone doesn't do for you
That someone didn't (doesn't) do for you
That I've already done for you
That's why
Thank you

RIP Dylan and Elliot
More to elliot
Dylan reider? Dylan who?
@@jala1081 Rieder
A destructive, beautiful creation
One of the unappreciated greats
Pure power in this song. It reminds me of the power of ocean waves and the sea.
Sounds like a lost Beatles track.
Rip Elliott. We love you!
No it’s too dark for that:
Actually, there's an Overdub version. I want to mash it up with "Everywhere you go, you always (Not as a Verb. As an Adjective) BRING the weather"😆
Part of me wishes I was That Psychic🤷🙄
Beatles were a fun birthday party band.
i've been coming back to to this over and over since it released, so powerful.. ... love yourself, love each other... peace x x x
Holy shit, this is fantastic.
"I'll do what I can so you can be what you do".. coast to coast
Insanely great. My heart breaks and heals to this song. I know Elliot. I hope you found God somewhere in this nothing world.
This is just about the most bitter song ever written. Do you guys see it? So sweet but so bitter. And like so many of his songs it is a suicide note.
I view it differently. I remember reading in an article that one of his producers who was also his buddy said that Elliott told him this song was about being in love with two people at the same time, and that he said it was autobiographical.
all my best acid trips sound like this
It seems..
Whenever I'm sad..
I cut you on, El.
Thank you for your time.
His darkest song for me.
his darkest album I guess
This one & passing feeling
Kings Crossing is darker for me
No Confidence Man. Thats dark.
Yeah Dylan! Much love - RIP
Mindfield love
this song is damn good! Elliott's songs kept evolving and his genius never stopped showing.
Such an underappreciated genius. Elliott, you are loved and missed, and you continue to touch an uncountable number of lives with your brilliant and moving music.
Your music was the perfect recipe to get me thru the crazy covid years.
checking in....September 2019....still loving it
2020 and still listening.
2021
i listen to this track every day without fail. This album equates The White Album in my opinion.
Good analogy. Everything is in there. Smith kept working to the end.
Yeah that blackbird!! He knew Paul was replaced
elliott did plant to have like 28 songs on this album so yeah it kinda would be his white album. hopefully those other tracks get finished somehow
I think catatonic scripts knows something…
The walrus was paul@@emwilson3764
I don't know if this is accurate, but I like my interpretation.This song, among other things, seems to be about how complicated can be a friendship when one of the parts is in need of help. In the lines "I'll do everything I can so you can be what you do" and also in the circuit rider reference, it's like he questions the other part playing the savior in the worst possible way, as a means to feel power over other people. It's not hard to imagine to be friend of a musical genius and feel belittled by his talent, but if you act like the preacher on a horse that comes to help him, it's a boost for the ego.
RIP Dylan. RIP Eliott. 🕊️
I really like the outro to this song with the piano
2020.. Im getting old fast.
2021 boy
@@DeclanBurger u good bro?

i feel you I Used to smoke too much And now i constantly hallucinate i’m trying to make an album but i hope i make it to them
You guys are all making me sad, but in a happy way❤ elliott saved my life more than once. he inspired me to play guitar when I was young and helped me learn to make my sadness into something happy.One of the greatest song writers of all time...I wish I could see into his mind just for a day.. heres to a fond farewell my friend.❤
Aah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ahah-aah
-ah-ahah-ah-ah
Ah-ahha-ha-ha-ha!
This was the first song of his that I had ever heard, and MAN was it a good one to start on! Such a shame, we miss you!
First time I've heard this song in movie "The Go-Getter". It was fisrt E.S. song I've ever heard.
One of the greatest!!!
It's 2018, and we're still here...
Love you Elliott! Hope soaring in the heavens brother
Love this track. It has that murky orchestral Magical Mystery Tour sound, but more self critical lyrics.
One of his best
UN GENIO.
*thats why*
He sings, "If you can't help it, just leave it alone," and you can tell he knows that it is such a small thing to ask but that it's also too much to ask. Resignation.
Its 2022 now. I think we'll always be here
It's 2020 & we are still thinking of you fondly
dylan and elliott died in the same month only nine days apart.
Getting me through life, as always
The Demons Can't follow you Onto HEAVEN 🙏

Amazing.
Happy 50th mate.
2019 to eternity
Great music.
sometimes I forget he's dead.
me too
cometome255 me too
I know me too. I told my dad "I'd love to see Elliott Smith live someday," and my dad was like "Uhhmmm, he's dead." and I was like "Oh yeah."
@@aeb0 Really? Wow, comment sections of Elliott Smith music videos used to be a place that was free of the typical brain-rot cancer that is found is most all other comment sections. Please take your idiotic dumbo babble to a Nicki Minaj or Katie Perry video. Better yet, crazy glue your fingertips together.
@@Dani92670 wow just because i listen to some pop doesn't mean that i can't also listen to actually good music too
this song is so destructive
it destroys everything in its path
RIP Elliot RIP DYLAN !!!
q musica meus amigos, q musica
4:40 The piano part :D and i love the ending with the dudes talking… “thats why.”
I hadn’t noticed that before! Awesome!
His best “fuck you song”.
I miss the man i never knew
“That’s why...”
Weirdly been one of my favourite parts, I always say it when he does. The raspy chill that's why
Damn! I love this song!!
full throttled stomper that's hard to shake out of your head.
That's why.
Those guitars are so heavy but he put them so far back and kept his vocals really clear and forward. I wonder if that's something that more singers would do if the other band members wouldn't be insulted?
The band and those vested finished this album posthumously. They did an awesome job finishing the music and producing the album, I think.
Some bands I like the vocals to be far back blending with the guitar with elliott smith his production hypnotizes me In the way the vocals are done
(pushy preachy)
Last stop for a resolution
End of the line, is it confusion?
So go. Go see what's there for you
Nothing new, nothing new for you to use
I've got no new act to amuse you
I've got no desire to use you, you know
But anything that I could do, would never be good enough for you
If you can't help it then just leave it alone (leave it alone)
Leave it alone, yeah, just forget it
It's really easy
I believe I'll forget it too
Still you're keeping me around
Till I finally drag us both down
Pulling feathers out your hat
Yes I believe that's where it's at
You belong tagging along
And I belong in your zoo
So I wait for confirmation
That you're never gonna use your starting gun
Unless its me it sounds like being him just wasn't that much fun
Anything that I could do
Would never be good enough for you
If you can't help it then just leave it alone (leave it alone)
Leave me alone, yeah, just forget it
It's really easy
I'll just forget it too
Coast to coast, coast to coast
I'll do what I can so you can be what you do
Coast to coast, coast to coast
I'll do everything I can so you can be what you do
Coast to coast, coast to coast

"...in your paths, the preacher ... the underpath
.. at my speech the one
Disembodied from the flood …
Simplest from the wilders
You held out to me the palm of your hand
Emanate your presence
And let me strive and then
Go shadows for your tolerance
With fog rolls in your .. full, your salt
Explains feathers that flip from air
.. as I sold
To be consumed by the snow white cold
If only I could
If only the plastic hold could stand the flame
Then this fabric torch
Would know no shame and be at strict play
With the sun that burns the glory
And honor of your mortal holy name
In the twilight the morning starts to glow
Unmistakable
Keeping me where I go
with smoothing and sway
To be begged
Filled with ancient.." … Sublime sketch
This principle fuel check
Will keep a decision
To be either emerald with envy
Or emerald with ...
fortune doesn't divvy (??) with..
with a possibility
and I kept mine
To go one green world after the next
No I don't take bets
Almost notes this
With the sung pages
Of future songs
Reigster from priceless indecisiveness
Alter calm .. designs
From the greatness of change and chance
Free wills merit glorious motive change
With the blueprints of fates reigns mapped
Unrolled from a it's silk scroll
.. prance
By the wall to windows face as you dance
Looking out at the spring into deep space
At which.
I was always pretty sure the line was "You don't even notice that/you belong tagging along/ and I belong in the zoo." Listening again, that's still what I hear, but maybe there are a couple tracks overlaid here?
2020
Listen to this every single day
That's great!
👌
There's so much weird stuff when you listen with headphones. For example, it sounds like he played a track of just snare over the whole song
I’ve always loved the drums on this song. They make me feel like I’m chuggin’ along on a train. 🚂
A friend of mine told me that they actually recorded two drummers AT ONCE, explaining the massive sound it has. Not sure exactly how true this is but its something I've heard, so take it with a grain of salt.
Steven Drozd from Flaming Lips played drums on this album :)
Two drummers and one of them is Steven Drozd. That’s a power move if ever there was one.
I mean no offense to the Smith family, but the choice to not include such luminaries as "Abused" is borderline disgraceful. Almost like it was a way to protect Charlie from what was an indictment in song. We all know who abused our hero. Charlie has to live with that. Not including the real gutsy songs on the album speaks volumes to me about his filthy guilt. Regardless, I love you Elliott. Your pain is our pain.
Andy Trullinger - I've bought several hard copies of Elliott's music but I don't like supporting his family which was the source of his pain... If you get successful make a will...
Can you expound a bit on this? I'm just re-discovering him after a decade and I never really dug into his story
@@LateNightRewrites ...near as I can recall; Elliott's stepdad Charlie was sexually abusing Elliott. I got the impression it went on for years, during his elementary school age (if too early, someone pls correct me,) and up through early teens. Elliott finally got enough courage to confront the abuse. However, when he told his family (mother) about it, she and the rest of the family didn't believe him, and took Charlie's side. Further, Elliott was punished in some manner for causing trouble for family, being disruptive, or something along those lines.
Bullet points being Charlie sexually (+) abused Elliott at a young age. E wasnt believed when he came forward to family. Further, his supposed protectors gave him a hard time and skepticism. He subsequently bounced out, leaving to live with dad in Portland by 14 or 15, escaping texas ostensibly so he could escape Charlie.
(E had a tat of the Lonestar state on his arm; he said it was a reminder of a place he really didnt want to ever return to. Phrased it like "theres a lot of bad stuff I dont want to talk about, but its stuff that shouldnt be forgotten, a lot of good reasons to never return..." - note, im paraphrasing at best, and by no means is that an accurate quote at the end. But the points mentioned are real points and explanations raised by Elliott. ) RIP buddy. You were too much for this world to handle, and so bright that its people chose to dim your light rather than brighten it's own.
To take the path of no resistance....And you fuckers broke him. Add to THAT, the questionable manner in which he died (incredibly painful and difficult manner of suicide; self impalement,) showing no signs of hesitation marks, which is uncommon in those suicide methods. Also had supposed, possible defensive wounds on forearms. His tox panel came back clear of narcotics or illicit drugs, and had normal levels of prescribed anti depressant and mood stabilizers he was on.
He was alone in his home with his (ex~ish) girlfriend, Jennifer Chiba. She CLAIMED they had been arguing, so she locked herself in the bathroom. At which point she heard screaming, came out to see Elliott with kitchen knife sticking out of his chest.
She goes on to claim that she then pulled the knife out (BIG no-no. Would also explain any of her prints on the handle....) and called 911. Only a small post it was found for a suicide note, and there was controversy that his name had been misspelled onthe note, but I believe that was cleared up as the medical examiner writing it incorrectly in the file, but that it was correct on the original doc... put all that together and the case was never closed. Too much contradictory evidence to point to suicide or murder for certain. Die-hard fans are often quick to condemn Jennifer as murdering him, but who is to say what really happened. Depression can do incredible things to one's psyche, and subsequently pulling off extreme acts, like stabbing yourself in the heart. There was an actor who was found in a field, throat cut ear to ear, it was deemed a suicide. I read about an inmate who once scooped out his eyeballs, without ever making a sound or screaming.... accusing someone of murder is pretty huge. But avoiding getting more$ into her pockets via his creativity seems go be a fairly universally accepted method of expressing distain/anger at the famdamily.
Abused, suicide machine, mr good morning even a melodic noise snippet like they did with the roost would make the album amazing. Let’s hope for a deluxe edition soon
"That you belong, taggin' along. And I belong in the zoo."
