  • I put this together to test iMovie HD. I strictly used loc and creative commons footage which offsets my offense of ripping off Elliott Smith, may he rest in peace. I wouldn't call this anything to brag about, but some may like it.

    I remember first hearing this song and getting the chills. His voice is so fragile and you could barely hear it, the instruments have actually beat and the lyrics are just wow.... it's perfect!
    He's pleased to met you underneath the horse/ In the cathedral with the glass stained black/ Singing sweet high notes that echo back.... An amazing introduction for the Either/or.

    sounds weird but I used to watch this exact video years ago by myself. In my old house, in a different town, when it was first posted.It made me flash back to that time in my life and it seems like forever. Anyways, thanks for making this video. Cheers to all the memories music can create.

      This was iMovie HD back in 2007 - seems like forever ago. The fidelity of this video screams 2007 though I swear I exported to at least 720p! I think youtube wrote this video off as an old/small fish and crushed the resolution to save on bandwidth. Despite the awkward resolution, slow-motion explosions set to Elliott Smith's music aged like fine wine.

      @@jx3821 I'd give it a shot. In2012 they took this video off due to DMCA, but I appealed on the grounds that it was "fair use". It's pretty grey. I get the feeling that if I was trying to monetize the video (I'm not) they might have taken it down. Even though I'm not monetizing, there are ads on my video. Revenue from these ads go to the copyright holder. In this case ad revenue goes to "Kill Rock Stars". Here's more on the topic: support.google.com/youtube/answer/9783148

    You cant completely dismiss the murder theory, but he was a junkie tormented by his demons and was known to regularly make threats to kill himself and probably did. Anyway his music lives on and this is a great tune.
