"sadly the album isnt as strong as it should be because of his death"- what do you mean by that, nopoetic? An album is the same whether the artist who recorded it is alive or dead. Its another fantastic elliot smith album. i dont personally think its his best, but its got some outstanding songs on it. What would have made the album stunning if he had of lived? |

I disagree that smith took his own life before his full potential was realised. Thats doing a diservice to his work. I think he more than fullfilled his potential with some of the most moving and amazing songs of the last ten years. I think the saddest thing is that this was not realised by a larger number of our worlds population, though in the same breath i can also imagine that that kind of adulation would have been the last thing that elliot could have wanted.
Many reviews i have read of 'from a basement....' have claimed that the lyrics give no indication of what ensued. I dont agree.
'i can't prepare for death any more than i already have'
'give me one good reason not to do it'
Speaks for itself as far as im concerned. |
