Elliott Smith Last Call

[@CSchwarten]

This is probably my favorite Elliott song. To be honest, I like that it's not one of his most recognized, it feels like it's kinda my own. Listened to it a lot around a certain point of my life, became like a soundtrack.

[@DianaArmstrongZook]

Elliott was not only a great emotive, poetic, hypnotic/narcotic/ songwriter but knew how to move around the neck of the guitar, change keys add colorful sophisticated chords and progressions, and his right hand rythmn is top notch .An Ultra creative, albeit a depressive, in every sense of the word .I teach about 6+ of his songs to anyone that's willing.

[@elsquibbs]

aidan610, I agree. My sister called me at 4:00 AM when it happened. She worked for his A&R rep in LA. He had defensive wounds. He was murdered. That being said, the crime doesn't change the fact that Elliott is the best songwriter of our generation.

[@MissMisery123]

This song is so haunting and beautiful. Elliott never fails to produce beauty.

[@ModestMousekateer]

This is probably my favourite Elliott song, along with King's Crossing and The Biggest Lie. Thanks so much. Rest In Peace, Elliott. You saved lives.

[@tzohfeld]

That kiss album pic makes me smile every time! :)

[@minimalick]

Uh, new favorite song, right here.

[@Tsouvalos]

Elliott was a brilliant guitarist and song writer and will always be... It saddens me that he can't wright music anymore as it saddens me that Douglas Adams won't wright any more books... These people had insight, they had something special... Too Bad they are not here!

[@Th3shootist]

amazing poet, miss him every time i listen to his music.

[@blessmeish]

"You're a tongueless talker".. best line ever.

[@ColtonRoberts95]

Undeniably my favorite.

[@wirsindhelden0]

this has always been one of my favorites of his....ok is it just me, or is his voice unbelievably magnificent in this song? (i mean moreso than usual)

[@koolmees99]

What a person what an artist what a lyrics

[@rcrellen1980]

IT NFUCKIN' BREAKS MY HEART...

[@DavideRicchetti]

[@ganuenen]

RIP Elliott Smith, on this day 9 years ago we lost ur beautiful soul!! XO

[@DJPoundPuppy]

I love this song more than I assumed I would.

[@blazenandez]

Going back with the woman i loved for years for the third time ... this made the end of the third and final act more sweet

[@justmart4455]

Awwww

[@spinalchords21]

This is haunting and beautiful. Awe. He looks so much like my roomate in some of these.

[@mechanicalmouseband]

Thanks for posting this.

[@cpennell100]

I love it!!!

[@hazelgreen6381]

of course it sounds like him, listen to him all the time and missing him as I always will

[@aShtk85]

@CSchwarten This is also probably my favorite Elliott song. It sounds so deep, so rock, so intimate, etc

[@nick12149]

fucking loving this absulute quality havent been lisening to elliott very long but i feel i like i have sorley missed im very sure rest in peace man

[@schaefersmann]

he still IS amazing, cause i am hearing his music over and over and over....bottle up and explode, dude !!!;-)meaning youre damn right, juan !!!

[@spraynardkruger9903]

best song

[@alexanderaultman]

@mymayapapaya I think this song was recorded on his 4-track tape recorder, and he lowered the pitch with the pitch wheel. That's why the vocals have that weird harmony.

[@Khasar]

i miss you...

[@atwagrl]

wow..this is just fucking amazing.. its great to paint to..

[@AlternativeUses]

this and no name #2 are heartbreakingly dark songs

[@ThaliaRam]

Today is his birthday. We love you Elliott, we miss you.

[@mymayapapaya]

@aaronmyers1982 but do you like it? I love how his voice sounds in this

[@mymayapapaya]

@PopSong1 it's on his first one... Roman Candle

[@schaefersmann]

amazing human being?, i never met elliott, but the music reflects a reflecting, and maybe a little confused, human being...but i love the music and lyrics, so, yeah amazing... last call...

[@roooss91]

this is elliott's magnum opus

[@aidan610]

if you know anything about it, he was stabbed. there has been and probably never will be anything conclusive about who did as his body was cremated. his relationship at the time was described as 'sid and nancy' and he'd gone through a lot. I think it's open to speculation.

[@Runtowardsfear]

I wanted her to tell me that she would never wake me.

[@aaronmyers1982]

@mymayapapaya I think it could be one of those tunes that has to grow on you. I've only listened to it 2 or 3 times and I'm not really feeling it. Every now & then I think I hear the Elliott Smith I'm familiar with in there somewhere. I love Elliott Smith though. Its like re-discovering the beatles all over again. u'll notice my faves are littered with Elliott Smith tunes. Its flattering 2 hear from u by the way. I've known who u are for a while. Your channel always pops up in my recommendations

[@johnnyFishborn]

the only one

[@ithemeparkOFFICIAL]

@mymayapapaya Thanks

[@mymayapapaya]

You can be amazing and confused. :)

[@mymayapapaya]

That's ELLIOTT! :)

[@hserokdivad]

"that song has too many words..."

[@ChaseThomas2]

does anyone know the chords for this song? i can't find them anywhere.

[@mymayapapaya]

@bosly8894 he played both

[@aaronmyers1982]

@aaronmyers1982 Yeah I know heatmiser. I mostly mean vocalwise. Like I dont hear his voice at all. Sounds like someone altogether different is singing

[@oranjjjggg]

@galaxygirllove i dont think the chords are that irregular, you'll be ok. Let us know how it goes, always fun to hear what guitar teachers think of great musicians.

[@mymayapapaya]

@aaronmyers1982 have you heard much heatmiser?

[@o0musiic0o]

this is mine too :)

[@Salamander676]

His best song next to Roman candle

[@mymayapapaya]

@aaronmyers1982 thanks I don't usually post comments

[@ithemeparkOFFICIAL]

What album is this on??

[@aidanosaurusrex2365]

his first one, roman candle

[@ShokyShrox]

Is the kid with the kiss album Elliott maya?

[@wirsindhelden0]

@doucthec it's weird that you'd say that, because that's kind of the complete opposite of anything i've ever heard, about him...

[@m7m_3q]

wirsindhelden0

[@m7m_3q]

wirsindhelden0 wwwxxxxnxxxncom

[@joxster9]

it loaded ok

[@GGoDpOoC]

love when he sings like this it reminds of randy Newman except way fucking better lol

[@karmapolice0]

i wanted him to tell me that he would never stop singing

[@infradig8]

These photos remind me of Mark Lanegan

[@shadrussell]

Actually it sounds exactly like him... Who have you been listening to??

[@mymayapapaya]

lol :)

[@jsmcdona]

why do you think he was an asshole? I don't believe that from what i have come to learn of him.

[@oogie11]

Very poignant song

[@aaronmyers1982]

It doesnt sound like him at all. *scratches head*

[@plaincontrol]

just listen to his songs. he speaks of suicide a lot, so much sadness. i dont doubt that he killed himself.

[@valahogy]

@mozart was so overated:D
