Cover art for Amanda Cecilia lyrics by Elliott Smith

i love the bit at the start of the live version of thiswhere he says "sorry bout the high notes.........well, y'know..... you can tell what it's s'posed to be........which is about as good as anything i'm gonna do!", and the girl shouting out after the first bit "no, the high notes are great!". this bit jusat shows you how elliott was so fragile and delicate and the girl is how people were always trying to help him and support him. reminds me of how you can hear jennifer chiba say "because i love you" in King's Crossing, just after he says "give me one good reason not to do it". great song too, i love the guitar, reminiscent of southern belle and christian brother in terms of intricacy but sweeter.
