Elliott Smith – Last Call Lyrics 17 years ago
I love this song. Its like a fuming anger.

Favourite line:
"Well you know one day it'll come to haunt you
That you didn't tell him quite the truth"

...plus
'I wanted her to tell me that she would never wake me'
is completely haunting. The first time I REALLY heard it, it literally made me stop in my tracks. So, so affecting.

Elliott Smith – Half Right Lyrics 17 years ago
After just recently listening to New Moon and hearing the newly released version of this, I'm not sure if I prefer it live or not. It's almost like two different songs really. The tone and tempo are so different. Either way though, an incredible song.

Elliott is so under-appreciated. Its such a pity he never received the acclaim he deserved (and still deserves) when he was alive.
At the same time though, and from a very selfish place, these songs are so personal to me that I nearly prefer it that none of my friends 'get' him.

Anyone in the same boat?!

Elliott Smith – No Name #1 Lyrics 17 years ago
This is not only one of my favourite Elliott songs, but one of my all time favourites.

The melody is so uplifting, I've always thought that it must be what floating would sound like. But the words, wow, deeply affecting.
