I mean no one comes on this site without knowing my love for Elliott Smith. I mean the only one that’s got me beat is Kev but he doesn’t count cause he followed him around France once.. (stalker!)Anyway, one of my big (musical) regrets in life was the day I gave up an Elliott Smith ticket for what would be his last NYC appearance cause I was “lazy.” Oh well. I won’t miss out on somet

Elliott Smith "Between The Bars" (mp3) from "Either/Or" (Kill Rock Stars) Popularized by the film Good Will Hunting, Between The Bars is one of my favorite Elliot Smith songs. His beautiful melodies and lyrics probably made him one of the most talented songwriters of our time. A song featuring his signature solo acoustic guitar and double tracked vocals, this song's lyrics can be interp...

Yesterday, on the way to Venice, before hearing our Venice mix, we listened to XO by Elliott Smith. No one's a bigger Elliott fan than Michelle. She actually saw Smith live twice, that's right TWICE. And has, a now disintegrating, Figure 8 decal on our car from the last show she saw him perform in concert.I love having discussions about music with Michelle about music. Yesterday in the car whil...

This is the place you end up when you lose the chaseWhere you're dragged against your will from a basement on the hillAnd all anybody knows is you're not like themAnd they kick you in the head and send you back to bedIsolation pulled you past a tunnelTo a bright world where you can make a place to stayBut everybody's scared of this place, they're staying awayYour little house on Memory LaneThe ...

"I don't know if it would be fun to live in that world"Words spoken take on a larger significance when viewed through the spyglass of timeSteven Paul Smith was born at Clarkson Hospital in Omaha, Nebraska. His mother, Bunny Welch (née Bunny Kay Berryman), was a music teacher at an elementary school, and his father, Gary Smith, was a University of Nebraska medical student at the time. His parent..

The main thing that surprised me about Elliott Smith, Autumn de Wilde's book of images of the singer/songwriter (Chronicle, 2007) was that it was even published. I love Smith's music and have ever since I was first introduced—as millions were—via his astoundingly poignant contributions to the soundtrack for the film Good Will Hunting. For me, "Between The Bars", "Angeles" and "Miss Misery" to

I had a Elliott Smithsong stuck floating in my head but I couldn't think of the name. I was trying to figure it out and even asked Michelle but the only thing I could remember was the chords to the melody. But without a guitar, I had on which I left in New Orleans way back when, it's difficult to describe a song by singing the notes to someone. So we sat in the car, in the dark playing all of E...

From director/video artist Jem Cohen. Jem does straight through the lens films, meaning what he sees is what you get. This film is a series of vignettes of him filming Elliott in and around Portland, nothing much to it, but if your a fan it's well worth 12mins of your time. h3. Elliott Smith - Lucky Three
