Heaven Adores You, Deleted Scene: I Love My Room

In 2012, during the principal photography of "Heaven Adores You", we sat down with Larry Crane at Jackpot! Recording Studio in Portland to discuss Elliott Smith's brilliant musical trajectory. This is a moment where Larry played us a clip from the archives: an adolescent Elliott Smith and this incredibly catchy and complex arrangement called, "I Love My Room". We were floored.
Early versions of the film included this entire take, but were eventually re-worked to bring more context to his early recordings. It's still a great moment with Larry as we watch his real time reaction to the song.

Wow! That sounds like something Daniel Johnston would have come up with.

I thought the same😁

Happy Birthday in heaven, Elliott.

Happy Birthday, Elliott.

These songs should have never seen the light of day. He’d be mortified

[@sloop3720]

I doubt he would be too upset about a little song he made when he was younger. People grow and it’s not like it’s something extremely personal or vulnerable

I love that song.
