    I feel like this is one if not the most honest performence of him I've ever heard. He really puts everything on the table and then some... Really speaking from the bottom of his heart.
    Yeah Elliott, it really does get weird when it's quiet. It's weird that you're quiet now.

    This might just be my favourite recording ever. Everyone is out drinking tonight but I'm stuck in looking after my friends cat whilst he's on holiday. This cheered me up! The cat enjoyed it too.

    This is one of my favorite live performances of this song. He sings it so gently, like he was trying not to let the world know he was awake at sunrise. So softly. Let everyone sleep.

    the way he sounded a bit out of breath during the line “i’m tired of wasting my breath” was somehow so beautiful. Elliott leaves me in awe constantly. how i wish i was alive during the time he was writing and performing. unfortunately i was only almost 2 when he died. that will forever haunt me. rest well, Dear Elliott.

      I've always wanted to know more about how friendly those two were.. there's the photo of them watching a Sebadoh show together with Jeff grinning all sweet & El just standing there nursing his beer with his eyes closed, no doubt listening deeply & fully engaged with & entranced by the band. Probably my two favorite musicians everrrr 😇

      @@rb919 I love how so many people, myself included, who’s favorite artist is Elliott have Jeff not far behind on their list of favorites. Same goes for people with Jeff favoritism! Glad to see people are still affected by them.

    One of my favorite Elliott songs. And I love hearing him talk as much as I love hearing him sing.

    When it comes to missing you -
    I gotta long way to go
    I’m getting further away -
    Sometimes I just want you tangibly
    as it goes
    That ended
    In 2003
    I am always with you
    And for this
    I might say
    This clear
    Connection
    For you
    As close to happy
    To host you
    In spirit
    Forever
    Dancing
    On the highway
    Still
    Here

    Had a dream as an army man with an order
    Just to march in my place
    a dead enemy
    Screams in my face-shits haunting

    this is one of the elliott songs that I think really shows how fucking good a song writer he was. One of his many songs that you go, yup that is nearly a perfectly written song, about as good as it gets.
