    1:36 that little bend is one of the greatest moments in music ever

    So Elliott hit my nail on the head with this one. How many times have I left an AA meeting or rehab with some placeholder to go get what I needed that day. 3 weeks sober y'all.

    They come here alone and they leave in twos
    Except for you and me who just came to use
    If you're all done like you said you'd be
    What are you doing hanging out with me
    Why you tell me stuff that's so plainly untrue
    If you'll be straight with me, I'll be straighter with you
    If you're all done like you said you'd be
    What are you doing hanging out with me
    I've been wanting to do anything for a long time
    But whatever you got right now will probably suit me fine

    He died when I was 2 years old I found his music through Good Will Hunting my favorite movie and I don't regret one of greatest artists and musicians I've ever heard definitely better than anything from my generation or any generation for that matter his music has saved my life God knows how many times and I'm still finding great sounds by him such a great talent R.I.P.

      He was a great man plagued with feelings of inadequacy. I want to say so much more but fear that saying more will be counter productive. I'm so happy you have found Elliot's music and love that you have connected with his message.

      I was just a few months old my gf recently got me into him this year and I haven't been able to stop listening it's so inspiring and painful

      He died 6 days before I was born. It’s crazy. I love his music so much and I wonder what he would have said about the world today. A lots changed and I wish we got to see where he went with his music.

    A folk tune even Dylan himself would be proud of.

    Quite often I come across an Elliott Smith song that I'm not initially that keen on. Then after a few listens find it really grows on me and I find the uniqueness and beauty in it. This ones no exception.

    "I haven't wanted to do anything for a long time...." whew, that's me... That's where I am, despite having an awesome young son -- I have no desire to find someone that I'd be down with "whatever they got right now, would probably suite me fine". I know addiction is usually a downward spiral... but I thought I could "at least manage it" . I'm just faking it, and hoping nobody notices.

      Might not be as "too young" as you think... if this is already your "anthem." Be careful. Don't waste your life. I hit 40 and realized it was all wasted. Now I'm looking forward to taking myself out a day after my last parent passes.

    • @vaprex
      @vaprex 4 роки тому +20

      No... No I disagree... It's not "cute". Elliot may have had the awkward sense of humor to think it kinda was... but, the lyrics come across as more pained and desperate for help than 'cute'.
