thx so so much for the positive response everyone! im always surprised how quickly views seem to rack up, but im especially taken aback by this one given its relatively obscure nature. also, i will certainly redo this one one of these days to fix that chorus 🤧 (if u didnt notice anything, lets keep it dat way ;) ) - ashton
I started really disliking Elliott covers until I heard you. You are much more talented at doing Elliott covers than anyone else. Sometimes I think better than Elliott’s version. I thought I would never ever say that 😮. I’ll check your channel, but do you have any originals?
I'm 34 & have been listen to Elliott Smith since about 16. Your covers are the best I have ever heard. Your voice is incredibly similar to Elliotts , but i think, perhaps most importantly, you understand and feel his lyrics personally. Like myself and so many others. Thank you you sincerely & take care
i know everybody is saying this but this is an all time performance man. Im just imagining some person who doesnt know elliott stumbling onto this video, its gotta be a crazy feeling
I like the way your way of playing perfectly captures the dynamics of studio version of song. Please, I think many people will be pleased to see a tutorial, even a short, not detailed one. Your version is much, MUCH better than original acoustic version.
funny enough that’s one of those i keep having to relearn cause i always think to myself “oh yea thats one of his easier ones” and then never practice it 🙃 i just refreshed on it a few days ago, so duly noted!! ty for listening and for your kind words!! 💙
This cover was so good!!! I loved it, anything Eliott Smith related has the potencial to be amazing. Also, can you do a cover of "Pretty (Ugly Before)"? Or maybe "Twilight"? Both are Elliott songs. Thank U ♥
Another amazing cover, one suggestion, for the chorus start on the F# and then slide up to A, then down to E and then C#m (I think). Then repeat it but end on the E and B back to the verse like you've done..
Amazing cover man, maybe it’s because I’m a little confused but the chords at smilingatconfusion seem off, I’d love to know the chords, sorry if it’s a fault on my part! Regardless, beautiful piece of art
you’re right, they are off for the chorus (and i fell for it 🥲)! some one in the comment section here figured out so if you scour around hopefully you’ll find it! it’s been a while but i think the gist is an F# into an A or something like that (relative to the capo ofc). good luck, n ty very much for listening!! 💙💙
Now that everybody's worn the expression Not that you wanted to use It seems untrue now But the funniest thing is it fit's you now To a perfect T You may never understand this affliction Although you feel the effects you feel Bruised now, body and mind you feel Used now, almost all of the time been abused Abused abused Sunday morning in the aisle with my brother Watching the men in black tell the youths how You're supposed to behave And tell the truth now You don't know what you're saying We've been abused abused Abused abused Abused abused Abused Other people see some evil intention But the closer you get The more you get confused how Why does everyone know been abused now Didn't want it to show

This is one of the best Elliot Smith covers I've seen. Really clean guitar playing and nailed the vocals as well.
Holy shit dude this might be the best cover ive ever heard
I'm 34 & have been listen to Elliott Smith since about 16.
Your covers are the best I have ever heard.

Like myself and so many others.
Thank you you sincerely & take care
this means so much 🥹; thank u sincerely for listening
every now and then, i go back to this amazing cover just to get that feeling off my chest
Excellent! Made Elliott proud with this killer rendition of likely a very personal song to him.
Fucking perfect. I hope this blows up-you deserve it.
This is real good, man. You keep on going. God bless you.
Amazing dude I’m blown away goosebumps when you started strumming bro you’re great
whoa, this completely blew me away. you covered this perfectly.
this is the most beautiful cover I've heard
This cover moved me so much I honestly cried a little. There's such emotion behind your words
i know everybody is saying this but this is an all time performance man. Im just imagining some person who doesnt know elliott stumbling onto this video, its gotta be a crazy feeling
oh my god... just echoing everyone else here to say that this might be the best elliott smith cover I've ever heard. glad I clicked!
Absolutely slayed it, thank-you
fills the void of desire of an official better quality version of this song, super well done
What's wrong with the quality of this - ua-cam.com/video/LZwmxBmUNhs/v-deo.html
@TheHungryPigeon nothing wrong, just not a complete mixed mastered etc project + there are no live recordings or anything
so powerful both in your moments of loudness and quiet this kind of left me with my jaw dropped
AMZZZINGGGGGG. my ears have been so blessed today. thank you!!!! ❤
i got literal goosebumps listening to this, more elliott covers please!
This is beautiful. I had to stop myself from crying while listening on a run
🥹
I think your voice is a great fit for Elliott's songs, and you do great on the guitar too, both with getting all the little notes and the energy
Incredible voice. It suits his songs perfectly
Bro its so good
If i had money i would give it to you bro , thankyou !
finding your channel made my evening ❤
Oh man, that's one of the best performance i've seen
You just won a lifetime supporter brother.
The best*

your voice is beautiful, Elliott'd be proud ♥
This is the best cover I’ve seen omfg keep going plsss ur so good
This is incredible!!
Beautiful. Bravo
This is legitimately the best Elliott Smith cover I've seen in a long time. Is it possible you could do a lesson on how to play this?
tysm! and ill def consider it!
Pretty please
I like the way your way of playing perfectly captures the dynamics of studio version of song. Please, I think many people will be pleased to see a tutorial, even a short, not detailed one. Your version is much, MUCH better than original acoustic version.

Well done bro guitar playing is great and so is the singing 🤘🏼👏

holy shit I always think people butcher Elliott but you did this perfect son Justice. Whole heart. Thank you!
I can’t stop watching ur amazing !!
Love your Elliot covers so much. Maybe someday you can do The Biggest Lie?
funny enough that’s one of those i keep having to relearn cause i always think to myself “oh yea thats one of his easier ones” and then never practice it 🙃 i just refreshed on it a few days ago, so duly noted!!
ty for listening and for your kind words!! 💙
I love your voice, I see comparisons to Elliott´s voice in other comments but to me its very different, suits his songs perfectly though
WOW!!!
Such an amazing song
This is so beautiful, thank you 🥹❤️
Literally so good
Really great job!
This is far better than the original, which is ridiculous. The acoustics in your car are great also
straight up sounds like elliott smiths guitar exactly. well done
Woaw great cover! Powerful emotion!
Really, really good.
gorgeous wowowow your guitar has such a nice tone
this is beyond good
Honest to god this is as good as the original and i am a massive fan of this song

damn, your voice is so similar to Elliott's voice, but still you have an unique tone, great cover overall
😍
so much talent. keep making music!
This is a great cover!!
beautiful voice
This cover was so good!!! I loved it, anything Eliott Smith related has the potencial to be amazing. Also, can you do a cover of "Pretty (Ugly Before)"? Or maybe "Twilight"? Both are Elliott songs. Thank U ♥
you’re in luck; i dropped a “twilight” cover a few days ago! ty sooo much for listening :)
Absolutely perfect!
Beautiful
so beautiful
This is so good
Do more. These are really good 👍🏽
Another amazing cover, one suggestion, for the chorus start on the F# and then slide up to A, then down to E and then C#m (I think). Then repeat it but end on the E and B back to the verse like you've done..
ahh wish i’d known before i recorded this! def adds more spice than jus the E and F# back and forth; thx for the rec!
@@ashtonblaiir No worries brother. Keep doing what you're doing, you've got insane talent.
Really enjoy this cover. Does anyone have a tab or tutorial for this particular version? I am having trouble finding anything.
so so goooood
You’re the best Ashton! ❤

Excellent excellent cover.Thank you so much for posting.
I’d love to see/hear you do a cover of Stickman.
sweeeeeeëeeeeeet
So amazing like perfect perfection can you pls release tabs or a tutorial
tyy!!! i use the chord chart on smilingatconfusion.com, but id follow what another commenter here said abt the chorus progression; hope this helps! :)
Amazing cover man, maybe it’s because I’m a little confused but the chords at smilingatconfusion seem off, I’d love to know the chords, sorry if it’s a fault on my part! Regardless, beautiful piece of art
you’re right, they are off for the chorus (and i fell for it 🥲)! some one in the comment section here figured out so if you scour around hopefully you’ll find it! it’s been a while but i think the gist is an F# into an A or something like that (relative to the capo ofc). good luck, n ty very much for listening!! 💙💙
😌
unreal brother. What’s the tuning on this???
i was a full step down i think, but it didn’t really matter since i had a capo way up!
I think I need you
bro you gotta get a band frfr
i’ve got a few ideas that might be played out in future vids 👀
@@ashtonblaiir nice!!!!!
Now that everybody's worn the expression
Not that you wanted to use
It seems untrue now
But the funniest thing is it fit's you now
To a perfect T
You may never understand this affliction
Although you feel the effects you feel
Bruised now, body and mind you feel
Used now, almost all of the time been abused
Abused abused
Sunday morning in the aisle with my brother
Watching the men in black tell the youths how
You're supposed to behave
And tell the truth now
You don't know what you're saying
We've been abused abused
Abused abused
Abused abused
Abused
Other people see some evil intention
But the closer you get
The more you get confused how
Why does everyone know been abused now
Didn't want it to show
Elliott is that you?
Anychance youll leave a tab for this?
🙂
or do a whole tutorial :D?
haha i used the tab over at smilingatconfusion.com; super duper handy site for elliott tabs! thank u for listening 💙
never thought i'd say something so blasphemous but.. is this better than the original 😶
