Half Right Lyrics

Lyric discussion by no_name_no1 

Cover art for Half Right lyrics by Elliott Smith

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?!

@no_name_no1 the EXACT same here. I associate such strong emotional moments of my life with this music, it speaks to me and I get it. I wouldn't like people singing the words and not knowing what they mean, that his image is contorted and his lyrics misshapen and not appreciated or understood. Idk It is a selfish feeling, I know.
