Elliott: "It's got a lot piano:" Interviewer: "I've heard of the piano." Elliott: "Yea, you've heard of it? It's a pretty famous instrument." I love him 😂❤️

I love when he sounds chipper like this, his guitar was sounding on point here.

Insane he already had all of Happiness worked out a week before this, and like a couple of years before Figure 8! Incredible. Its such a good song.

This has got to be the best sequence of songs I've ever seen

@@errantcondor9349 my thoughts exactly. Interesting how he had ‘Happiness’ completely written way before ‘figure 8’

Best "Oh Well OK" EVER

At 11.35 minutes in, when Elliott apologizes and says "Im kind of out of it" moments after he perfectly delivers Bottle Up and Explode 🤯 What a prodigy. I truly hope Elliott can rest in whatever realm he's in now 😢

What a great way to end the week. Oh Well, OK just brought me somewhere else. So good.

Omg I almost started crying when I heard Elliott start playing Happiness after saying he wrote it last week and that this was the world premier of this song. This is one of my favorites of him and it was just a really sweet moment. I really wish that I could have seen Elliott live. I would do anything to go back and see him perform even just one song

Crazy that he wrote "Happiness" before XO even came out. Prolific writer

@rickesmalls 5 ай бұрын

A lot of the songs featured on his albums were written prior to the album. He would just rewrite the lyrics or add instruments

He wrote son of Sam when he was like 22-23 years old. Heard a demo yesterday on a 4track from 92 I believe and the song was called Shiva opens her arms. And it’s different than Son of Sam, but it has the main intro (minus the piano), plus a few other parts of son of Sam. And it uses some lyrics from last call. lol

This is my 3rd year being into Elliott Smith heavily and XO has grew on me immensely. Ive grown to appreciate his accoustic work on the album dude could have 8 fingers on each hand and id be convinced

Thank you so much. I’m always elated when I find something of Elliott’s that I haven’t heard before. His music has helped me cope with several significant tragedies in my life and besides that, it’s so beautiful and interesting.

I remember listening to Drinking From Puddles every Wednesday night and The Church of NW Music... Sundays I believe. Heard so much good stuff through those years!

There’s a cut at 4:36, and it is documented on the internet Elliott also played a studio track of “Our Thing” between Independence Day and Happiness. I wonder if it’s the same recording without vocals or if it’s a different version.
