Unbelievable. You not only nail the guitar part but your vocals are haunting and emotional. That’s what makes this a tribute rather than a cover. Keep playing because you have a gift.
Man, this is one of the best ES covers I've ever seen. Props on the guitar playing too - this is one of the most haunting and beautiful but equally difficult progressions he ever wrote, I feel.
New Moon means so much to me personally and spiritually. New Moon was the only Elliott Smith album I ever owned as a cd, and it never left my car. It was there when I was at my darkest and saddest rock bottom in this life, and it was there when that rock bottom crumbled away letting me know how endless the abyss beneath me was, and how false any sense of security I developed was. For so long I thought there was a true rock bottom; the lowest of the low point you can go. I trusted that the floor of my rock bottom place in life was solid rock as the name implies, but there's always further to fall. When I reached the happiest times of my entire in life, I would listen to New Moon. I relistened to every song on this album an innumerable amount of times, and I never got of a single song on that beautiful album. New Disaster is one of my favorite songs of all time. And what's crazy is that a lot of these songs were deemed by Elliott to be not worthy of including on his past albums. He saw a lot of these songs as not good enough, in his eyes, to be released officially on any of his albums despite many songs on New Moon having been beautifully written and completed a very long time before his death, years even for some. ---- What a beautiful injection of your own individual style and talent you gave to this beautiful song. Never give up on nurturing and further cultivating your raw instrumental and vocal talent!
You are one of my favorite singers of all time and I NEED MORE ELLIOTT SMITH COVERS. Your cover of this song is so beautiful and it makes my heart break from how good it is.
jesus christ. ive never heard a voice like yours… you should post your own songs or something cus every each cover you make is magnificent. keep it up girl
this has been my favorite song the past few weeks, and new moon has been my favorite album. i randomly got recommended this and honestly your playing and voice are amazing. im really impressed and could listen to this on repeat tbh. keep going and whenever times are hard just remember you have a true gift
I’m having my first baby in April and we are naming him Elliott. Someday I will show him this and tell him this is the type of music that inspired his name. ❤
I've been learning this song for the past few days, and it's such a tricky guitar part, but so much fun to play. You did an amazingly awesome job covering this song, it's helped me get the rhythm and feel for it down👍
Wow ! Really well played and your voice is beautiful! It makes me really happy to see young people enthusiastic about and appreciating Elliott’s music. Thanks for sharing.
i love your music taste and your voice is beautiful, i keep going back to this when i want more motivation to learn this. i really hope you start posting again! i'll finally start doing covers on yt when that happens >:)
she says "and you float for awhile" which I think is a better lyric Sometimes I slightly modify Elliott's lyrics to my liking. (Elliott did it too, look at all his alternate versions) He is definitely looking down on her cover from heaven and smiling
@@joshgehman232 def a beautiful cover and nothing wrong with changing a lyric here and there but me personally like the original lyric. I mean cmon when do you ever hear someone use the word aloof in a song haha
Thank you! Someone on Instagram posted a screenshot of one of his songs from UA-cam and I thought he looked like a guy who’d make cool music lol so I screenshot it and didn’t listen to it until a couple years later, but when I did I fell in looove. All his music is so creative and beautiful and I just love learning all my favorite songs and artists on guitar:)
theres a little bit of Elliott in all of us
Unbelievable. You not only nail the guitar part but your vocals are haunting and emotional. That’s what makes this a tribute rather than a cover. Keep playing because you have a gift.
