That fucking guy! Over two decades now I'm still fucking amazed. I tried to end my life to one of his songs. Sitting in my armchair watching the blood run out of my arm. I danced, cried, repeated his melodies in my head as a mantra to give me structure throughout my twenties and still. 42 years old, I'm still living; a good life, independent, listening to him stronger and more happy than ever with a great kid and some form of healthy lifestyle. Expression and empathy. Peace out!

He truly was our "Torment Saint" and as sad and tragic as his passing was (but it really is sad and tragic indeed), I think that we should all be counting ourselves lucky that there was an Elliott Smith at all. If you start reading through comments in Elliott's videos, it's common to find at least one statement from a person attesting that Elliott's music had literally saved their lives. Something that I am able to honestly attest to. Anyhow, I can't think a single other musician to which I could say the same about. It's not even close. My only regret I have towards Elliott Smith comes from the fact that he didn't have his own Elliott Smith. Sorry for the rantin and'a raving. Sorry friends

But yeah, I listen to Elliott because I’m super depressed, but I would argue more people have probably killed themselves to his music and even been pushed to it by the music. References of wanting to self delete all over the place, and then he did it. You know people who are super depressed and love Elliott are gonna say “well if Elliott couldn’t make it, I certainly can’t. If it was good enough for him…” I love Elliott and I listen to him because he feels like me and there’s a comfort there, but it’s actually wallowing in depression. For a few years I stopped being depressed and I had to avoid Elliott’s music because it took me back to those days and mainly because the songs are just dark and you’re listening to someone who didn’t beat his depression, he succumbed in a horrible manner. It’s all very morbid. But I love him.

I’ve found listening to dark music doesn’t exorcise or cleanse me of my pain in some cathartic way. I find it makes me stew in negativity . Everything he sings about is negative. Even in the happier songs, he slips in utter despair. I felt just like him minus the cool rock star stuff for all of my twenties. Wanted to self delete and was depressed all the time. I also listened to him the entire time. In my 30’s I stopped wanting to end it until last year those thoughts came back. I’m not gonna act on them because I can’t hurt the few people who love me aka Mom XO. I think Elliott is the greatest genius in modern music since The Beatles, and those were four people. But listening to him is both addictive and awe inspiring, but damn. It’s dangerous to my mental health lol. Sparklehorse too. So amazing and maybe not as dark but you have people who struggled with and made music about their battles with depression and in the end they lost and deleted themselves. It’s all really dark.

In 2017 shit started getting messed up, redneck fascists came out of the woodwork and started changing the social landscape, they had a voice in the whitehouse. Portland has been known since the late 80s to have a very progressive inclusive feel to it, Every city or town has some version of "bums" and I'm sorry to tell you, but "bums" as you say, have no place to shit, so there is that. Some of the most disgusting and dangerous places in America to live are Republican ran cities, despite what flat earther election deniers believe. Portland geographically is all I care about, I could give a shit about the social landscape of cities, or the world in general. Portland treats Proud Boys and Antifa as domestic terrorists as they should. Hundreds of people were sentenced during riots, on both sides. Don't know where you get news, but OAN, Newsmax, Fox, these aren't news outlets, they are propaganda machines, which is why in court the "news anchors" will say they are not telling the truth and that it is just entertaimment, so the lies they spread are covered legally, still the viewers don't care if shit is true or not, only what supports their claims, facts don't matter to these people.

I don’t think Charlie molested Elliott, but I think he was a dick and hit him and such. Shot his cat. So just a bad stepdad Texas style which often meant getting hit sometimes, especially back then. But in his last days Elliott was also paranoid that his record company was following him everywhere, so Elliott would take weird long ways to the studio through woods and stuff. Then he threatened to self delete if they didn’t release him from his contract. He said he saw a white van following him around. This would be around the time he would using lots of heroin and crack, but even without that he had adderall to make him paranoid when he abused it. Elliott liked the idea of things. I feel like maybe he felt if he was sexually abused, that would be a reason why he is always so unhappy. It would make him feel validated. He obsessed over heroin addiction for like a decade or more before diving into it. One girlfriend left him because he would obsessively talk about what it would be like to be a heroin addict. Then you see that it in his music all over the self titled album especially… And of course he threw references to suicide everywhere from the beginning. “Good to Go” means “ready to die”, he explained. So even “Amity” is really about this super cool girl that he would like to be with but he is just so so so…depressed and good to go. So yeah Elliott Smith is a genius, but I don’t think his step-dad diddled him and we certainly shouldn’t perpetuate that claim without any evidence, coming from an unreliable narrator.

Friends overdosing nearly every night because they're so far gone. Don't do drugs, kids. Except pot, mushrooms, mdma etc. But anything that kills the amount of innocents and sprays the blood of children that fentanyl, carfentanil, every evil fentanyl analogue, methamphetamine, cocaine, crack, do.. Will invite the devil into your home. No lie. I always wrestled with my faith until 4 nights ago when I fled my house that had possessed my husband and threw every last container and pipe and straw into a bag and walked to the very very edge of my swamp so deep I was putting myself up by the cattails with that drug bag in hand and after nearly 20 years this July of doing hard drugs (since age 14; 34 soon) I threw that motherfucker into the swamp and I heard hissing as the contents sunk to the bottom. Then the sound of something inhuman screaming, as well as what sounded like a hunted jumping fish in a swamp that has none. I turned back and walked into my house soaking wet from the swamp water but empowered by the light and love of Jesus Christ. And I went back into my bedroom to look at my husband, and he was gone. No reason for it, as he'd been officially off everything for about 30 hours by this point. But suddenly his eyes snapped open, and the pupils were so large that the blue of his eyes disappeared at the corners, and I said Babe, do you remember a few hours earlier, when I told you I felt like this time our withdrawal was spiritual? Because all of the other times I'd been sick in the past, I could muster NO ENERGY to do SHIT. And this Jesus energy had me on point. I shook my husband and asked him who was in the room with me, because his face was blank and empty, devoid of any emotion but the sparking, sinister reflection of myself in his iris-less eyes... And he said, "The devil." I looked down at the bedsheet, and towards the bottom about 3 feet away from his feet, a hand - or *something* - round seemed to undulate beneath the blanket, and I said that's not your... Foot, is it? As I saw his foot was 3 feet away. And he turned to me and said, "They're here. I'm going to let them take me." And he passed out again. That night I had to force him to drink water as he was only getting up to urinate in his semi-coma like state, and he was refusing water. I whispered Bible verses in his head all night as I turned to my hallway in front of the stairs and there was our dog, hissing and barking at the fucking thing. And it was laughing at us, mocking us. You see, it works through shame, deceit and confusion. We've been at a hotel since the morning following and I had those Bible versus on for 6 hours straight as he slept and I kept watch like those who watch over Israel. I'm convinced he'd be dead - hell, maybe we'd BOTH be dead if I hadn't have called on the power of Jesus Christ. 5 days no opiates for the first time in nearly 20 years. Thanks be to God!!! 🙏🏼

@@rodolf5941 both of us were clean for between 50 hours for me and 30 hours for him, from everything except pot when the thing came in and it gradually got stronger around hour 35... I had told him because he was dealing with this shit that killed 9 people in a week that it was straight demonic. And it wasn't just hands/fists whatever the fuck crawling under the sheets but something at the apex of the house we've lived in for 10 years where I ALWAYS feel spiritual energy because it's right in the middle of the home between the bedroom and basement and it was fucking with us bad. My husband would just literally stop breathing responding etc for minutes at a time and he's still been in bed since while I've made it 5 days now and haven't really suffered much at all thanks be to God!!! 🙏🏼

If someone overdoses they might stop breathing and thus not wake up anymore? Not sure if that's what he was getting at.

i agree. larry crane isnt a great mixer or remasterer. the rhythm guitar more front on Centre on the the more widely listened to version sounds better and it still has the lead guitar behind it. this overpowers the rhythm guitar and for fans that have heard the original recording this is abit jarring. can larry crane leave the recordings alone please. even the either/or remaster re-release wasnt great
