From a wishful-thinking type perspective, I would like to think that this is Nick Thorburn, who I assume wrote the song, feeling sentimental about his former partner in music, Alden Penner, the guy with whom Nick created the band "The Unicorns." Somehow, I doubt this hypothesis is true, but I figured it would be an interesting thing to propose. I have no idea what happened between the two, but it mustn't have been good if they each have their own separate musical pursuits now and refuse to work with each other. A shame, I guess you could call it. |

"Sam doesn't exist for Elliott. Not every Quasi song about depression, suicide, etc. are about Elliott."
Well said, man. I mean, I love Elliott, but the ideas people are getting regarding Quasi and Smith are just ridiculous. They're their own people FFS. |

Everyone always says Quasi songs are about Elliott Smith. I'm sure a lot of people discovered Quasi through Elliott and understands that they were really good friends with him, but I mean come on, it's not like every other Quasi song is written about Elliott, that would be absurd. This song is about life in general in my opinion. I mean, really, this song isn't so specific, it's very general in its descriptions. It could be about any person. That person could be you.
Also, why does everyone think Sam Coomes is trying to take a stab at Elliott Smith in all of their "Smith-Quasi" Connection theories? I mean, if anyone, wouldn't he be quarreling with Janet Weiss? |
