Elliott Smith Tributes make me cry.

Posted about 5 years ago
I've had this Rhett Miller album for a couple months now, but I didn't know until last week that this was a song about Elliott. And, it was sad before, and now, it's worse. I need to stop buying CDs on itunes so I can have inserts."When you said happinessIs all you wantedYou said thisIs all you wantedHow I missWe almost made itHappinessAll of your good friendsAll of the people like me keep a list of the things in this world that we trustYou are here in after referred to as someone who gave it a shot, gave it off, left the cruel world to usAnd I believed youWhen you said happinessIs all you wantedYou said thisIs all you wantedHow I missWe almost made itHappinessYou won’t get nervousYou won’t come downYou won’t feel helplessYou won’t be around anymore You won’t be around anymore You won’t be around anymore You won’t be around anymore You won’t be around anymore You won’t be around anymore AnymoreAnymore "

  2. ColdandComposed says He's Alt. Country, kind of. I'm not sure what he is, all I know is sometimes he's too country for me I prefer the first album "The Instigator" to "The Believer". But that may change now with this song. But "Terrible Vision" off of the first album is one of well, my favorite songs of all time.
