The Airborne Toxic Event - Elizabeth (Audio)

[@travlaney]

Everyone raise a glass to Elizabeth, the inspiration for this beautiful piece of art.

[@Will_WAR]

"I've never known love. This is just my best guess"....Wow, that just floors me 💙

[@elizabethRIOT]

My heart dropped when they started playing this last time I saw them live. My name is Elizabeth and I intentionally wore a white dress. Not to mention I'm Mexican and my hair was curled, such an amazing moment

[@ShowBizBlueprint]

Perfect storm! One of my favorites. I actually love playing this for people who don't know TATE - on my ukulele!

[@brandenwhite8633]

Elizabeth Flores I love this song and I love the name Elizabeth!

[@yelisabeth]

You rule

[@johnvanzwieten8869]

Are you pretty uptight?

[@michaelthompson8955]

Wonderful 😊

[@lolamead5227]

I love stumbling upon old songs from high school. Now 30 and I remember listening to this with my high school boyfriend. Ahh to be young again between the 2006-2012 era ❤

[@kingofnuke]

you still young.

[@lMagicRainl]

Its 2019 and this song is still one of my favorites!

[@dhsjkgeijd]

"and that white dress she's wearing, you haven't see her for a while"

[@EShum]

All one long love story told through songs

[@Vdelicous]

Lyrics There's a distance in your eyes That's why a smile is always a surprise When you call and you talk to me I wonder which person you're going to be She said, all your songs are sad songs Why do you always have to see the worst of it Could you write me just one love song? Put my name somewhere in the middle of it It's not hard to write Elizabeth Just close your eyes boy and take your best guess Cause the truth is hard, isn't it? She said "I'll be listening in my favorite white dress" All these quite afternoons, She said, "I wonder if I've given up my love too soon" As her hair fell from her curls I said you're pretty uptight for a Mexican Girl She said, all your songs are sad songs Why do you always have to make me feel like shit? Could you write me just one love song? And put my name somewhere in the middle of it And if you call the song Elizabeth All my friends will know it's about me Cause the truth is hard, isn't it? Don't take too long, I just know you'll come back to me I said all these songs are love songs Just love at times can make you feel like shit So you write a string of words down It's better if there's some truth in it It's true I love you Elizabeth I love the way you move in that silly white dress Because the truth is hard to admit I've never known love This is just my best guess Fuente: LyricFind Compositores: Mikel Frans Jollett Letra de Elizabeth © BMG Rights Management

[@VeggieVulcan]

I cried when I first heard them play this live. They have such a beautiful passion, it makes me become hopelessly emotional.

[@DamonBadgett]

I sing this song all the time. Its my absolute favorite in the world. This band is so fucking amazing and has moved me more than any other band.

[@3941602]

This song is absolutely brilliant!

[@kartikeyachaudhary6668]

this is so calming. man this band is underrated...

[@stephersluvsyou]

What I like about this song more than anything is its tone. It's like he's accepting the bad but being honest and optimistic about it at the same time.

[@darkbubble586]

This band is way too underrated. Keep it up.

[@JS-kf9ee]

The very first time i heard it in my friend's car i was shocked because of well-written lyrics, especially the last phrase

[@ShowBizBlueprint]

I feel that way on every single one of their songs. Never stops.

[@AndreadeAlba]

Something about the combination of these lyrics and music leaves you all fluffy inside by the end of the song.

[@Blueon123]

My mom’s name is Elizabeth and she’s Mexican and she used to always complain that there wasn’t a song named after her until I showed her this Edit: she passed away may 12 2023, she was 58 I was 17, I'm 19 now and doing all the things i told her I would do, will always think of her when I play this song

[@smartspeakers1183]

I never thought I was a "lyrics person" before I met Mikel's writing.

[@theidleness]

Agreed! listened to the whole album got this one. and was like omgggg. Can so relattte...

[@gedsxd]

Awesome song! A little bummed they did not sing last week In Nashville....but a great show!

[@chloesoles9341]

Love this song so much!

[@conpatrickquinn]

Brilliant so simple but works so well

[@ardentbubblynickel1232]

This is the first day I've got into this song and I've probably have listened to it like 15 times.

[@kingpatty17]

My favorite song off the new album. Those lyrics!

[@OngoingDiscovery]

i think this is my favorite song on the album

[@TheSsussie]

most amazing lyrics i ever heard

[@LTSal2011]

I said all these songs are love songs Just love at times can make you feel like shit So you write a string of words down Its better if theres some truth in it The more I listen they are all love songs with truth and conviction. I hear hope and faith the more I listen. Trying to get to the core of the song is the fun part. Can't wait for TATE to come back to the Central Valley, CA.

[@michaelthompson8955]

Simply,as beautiful as it gets...❤❤❤

[@ryanboyful]

This is just so beautiful, it even made me cry, idk why haha.

[@Simplyjoshable]

Love this. Best song ever.

[@ElizaSteady-fu2jv]

Ultimately the song for all Elizabeth s❤

[@ericamacmillan9940]

Love this song!

[@dakotawarX]

Anna’s vocalizing is the best!

[@belma.junuzovic]

Somehow, but always.. it makes me cry...

[@ShowBizBlueprint]

Every time

[@olmangabriel8302]

Elizabeth ... Why do you always have to make me feel like shit?

[@MeTaLLiCaT8282]

She's not Mexican, but I'm in love - possibly hopelessly - with an Elizabeth.

[@sebaso2319]

How'd it go

[@MeTaLLiCaT8282]

@@sebaso2319 Not good, she's actually been married to some other dude for about five years now. It's cool, though. I've moved on.

[@jodiebaglole9703]

I would love to see this song preformed live in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island.

[@deancanada1740]

It's amazing live

[@edgara182fan]

Oh Elizabeth I miss you so fucking bad... Seriously

[@TylerBullock]

Just had a very one-sided romance with a Mexican girl and this song gives me some kind of weird solace

[@ThatLittleKitten]

This is such a soothing song. Also my middle name is Elizabeth

[@borderdale]

2024 and still special.

[@yelisabeth]

So proud this is my name

[@pert-smith]

LOVE IT

[@maryeelafdz]

That's why I love Mikel.

[@kujo1999]

[@kimberlyduarte9371]

[@elizabethRIOT]

I will forever think this song is about me lol

[@bezzzy6550]

Dang this song makes me wanna txt the ex I never had...

[@mulder157]

From that Croatian guy that likes that Canadian girl named Elizabeth... ;)

[@ElizaSteady-fu2jv]

Said all the songs are love songs better off with truth than a web of lies 😊

[@thehappyeskimo]

I'm Elizabeth, and my favorite dress is white, too. 💕

[@ruthchi2658]

you are special and you are you. Just do you

[@laylarisse1931]

You're special too. Be yourself.

[@BobbleCow]

Lyrics remind me of the girl from Sometime Around Midnight.

[@nameforcomments4092]

This comment is 7 years old now, but I can only hope you've since heard 'The Fall of Rome' and been blown away like I was.

[@laylarisse1931]

[@gen121O]

Mikel!, its not hard to rhyme Genesis either ;)

[@TheSsussie]

hey why don't you write something about Susan?:D

[@devinonchi3504]

I think its about a girl who is todays kind of groupie ( not exactly, I don't know what its called)

[@lajh100]

Well, she's not an Elizabeth but an Isabel who's making me feel like shit

[@joefinberg8387]

He wrote allot of songs about the same girl.

[@yaaaaasfire9621]

idk why but i think ciel would write something like this XD

[@jchav420]

First time hearing it all the way through...Ho..ly shit..

[@Kirbotets]

yo conozco a la chica de la que habla esta canción .

[@asmartfoodie]

Quien es????

[@Kirbotets]

A SMaRt foodie es una hermosa chica del distrito federal en México . Obviamente llamada Elizabeth tiene unos labios tan ardientes y una mirada tan profunda.

[@ninhbac04]

you win nothing

[@ninhbac04]

that was stupid

[@CheckYourTrunk]

It's the line referencing the white dress, isn't it? I get the feeling that most of these songs are about the same girl.

[@cobwebbyargos6953]

Ian Tewid well he did start music writing after his mom got cancer, he found out he had an autoimmune disease and his long term girlfriend broke up with him and that all happened in the same month.
