• I’m seriously blown away-great job!

how about elliott smith’s picking? for example the riff at the beginning of everything reminds me of her or tomorrow tomorrow.

Did you try to adjust the truss rod as well or change the saddle?

Great video. Really touching. Thank you.

great job

Thanks for sharing this! I always love learning his songs. I've always loved the albums, and then being able to watch him play the tracks solo acoustic is really fun for learning them and practicing a lot of good technique. I hope you keep making more of these.

Nails aren't gross! They are amazing tools and they don't need to be as long as people think!

magical, well done!

I want tab pleasee 😢

Beautiful

What's the tuning?

sweet

Sublime…

Lovely

Beautiful

he also uses that chord in better be quiet now

Väldigt intressant och användbara tips för mitt gitarrspel! Tack för att du delade med dig! :)

Acoustic Intro chords: B: xx9877 Badd9: xx9879 Badd#9: xx987[10] Em/B: xx9987 Bm7/A: xx7777 Cmaj7/G: xx5557 C/G: xx5558 Badd9/F#: xx4448 B/F#: xx4447 Em: xx2003 D: xx0232 C: x32010 C^: x32013 B7: x21202

Jag önskar fan hans musik, finns inget bättre 🙌

step 1: be a genius like Elliot Smith step 2: you're not so go jerk off step 3: make a RUclips video

cool channel, i do wanna add that it really sounds like hes playing c6 and d6 instead of the standard A shape bar chord c and d( hes adding the high e in the bar on the 5th fret for c and 7th fret for d). to me once you try it, every other way just doesnt seem right

Thanks a lot for this! Could you please do Instrumental in G? It's not the actual name of the song, but it can be found on RUclips by that title. I'd be eternally grateful if you could figure it out for us.

could you do the biggest lie the way you did this song? i can only find one tutorial and while its great with the intro i get lost with therest of the song cause its kinda hard to see the guys fingers lol

4:32 Did you try to play and sing "Brain damage"? I almost hear words :)

xo inristat🥺

You have a different guitar in this video what is it?

always been my fave

That ending is amazing and this is a great acoustic version you worked out, really captures the spirit. In that studio version I’ve tried to count the layers, there’s at least 2 vocal harmonies, strings, keyboard, acoustic, electric guitar, piano maybe an electric organ. Switching off lead lines which vary as well. It’s like a beautiful orchestra of sound. Easy for him, not for anyone else.

Agree. Absolutely beautiful voicing.

If you like Elliott's playing you should check out Dave Matthews on Crush and Harry Nillson on something Without Her. Both similar to Elliott in delivery. I got into Elliott just before he died and his death was truly a shock. Despite my love of his music I have never really seriously tried to play anything by him ..... yet.

Sounds soo good! Great job man!

Even though Elliott sings B over the opening chord, I hear it played (3x2013) listen closely for the C note on string 2 to move up to C# when switching to the A7/C#. Great play though overall. Just about nailed it.

Which Gibson are you playing? Beautiful looking!

I think Billy Corgan also plays that chord in Sweet Sweet

It sounds really great and the change in the dynamics is perfect. Keep it up

That "tricky part" is tricky but when you get it down it's so satisfying. This is a good enough example of how to play this song I think. It's not a "tutorial" per se but let's be real, breaking ES songs note by note for an absolute beginner would be an extremely frustrating exercise. There's some substantial fundamental skills required for most of his stuff. Your English is very good.

Sounding really sick, keep playing man!

Beautiful that brother

Hey man, love the videos, you’re a great player! Would really appreciate more videos like this one! ❤

badass

excellent stuff, please do more of these kinds of videos! maybe something like bottle up and explode? really appreciate the level of detail here

Love your videos where you dive into his techniques, songwriting, etc.

just want to say that for some reason RUclips recommended this video to me the day you posted even though i had never listened to Elliot before. The last four months i have fallen in love with his music and condor ave is my favorite song of his, thanks for introducing me to his amazing music.

Hej! Går det att ta lektioner av dig? Bor i Sthlm.

Beautiful. Very good points too. I love that song but I hadn't tried to learn it yet. Those high notes make all the difference. It adds a romanticism to it.

i love this song, but i was so excited you were going to play No Name #2 (which i like slightly more) so i was still kinda dissapointed. i love you anyhow

If you don’t have nails, just turn the volume up on your amp, mic or whatever and gently do it with your finger tips. It actually sounds nicer too in my personal opinion, like less sharp. I’m pretty sure Elliott did it without nails from the way it sounds when he plays it.

This is amazing. I’ve tried learning this song before and I couldn’t quite get the third chord to sound right. I subbed! Would love to see you go into more detail on other Elliott Smith techniques (if you wanted to of course!)

I never really had a problem because of leaving But everything reminds me of her this evening So if I seem a little out of it, sorry But why should I lie? Everything reminds me of her The spin of the Earth impaled a silhouette Of the sun on the steeple And I gotta hear the same sermon All the time now from you people "Why are you staring into outer space, crying? Just because you came across it and lost it" Everything reminds me of her Everything reminds me of her Everything reminds me of her
