This video is how to sound like Elliott Smith! I go through the tone, instruments, lyrics, and the style of Elliott Smith. Then to demonstrate understanding I make an original song that is simmilar to his style.

i'd kill to be half the writer he was. especially his lyrics, they just seem to pour out of him like nothing at all
Yes, I agree he was incredible at writing lyrics!
Do your own thing everyone’s got something they can give creatively it’s just time and work. If you pop it your heart into your art as he said if you like it somebody else will probably like it.
You already are.
Great video. One thing about the "chorus effect" on at least his first album and perhaps more. Elliott actually sang the track twice, but did it so consistently that it essentially gave a "chorus" effect. With close listening you can hear the tiny vocal differences of two independent tracks.
Great insight!
Played and sang twice, vocal double tracking is easy to do but doubling the entire performance live with the acoustic as well is mind boggling hard to do.
always impressed by elliot’s fans. they always put so much into their videos about him. good stuff.
He’s the reason why I’m a musician, I love music more than anything, it’s obvious, that’s why I’m gonna spend my entire life making it, Elliott Smith is my one and only favorite artist of all time he is my inspiration he is my guiding light is the best and I don’t think there’s a better artist than him. He’s the best.
I subscribe every single word. It’s like a wrote this myself.
I play a lot of songs from him. Do you want to connect?
great video man. Really! the song at the end is both amazing and very funny. love it!
Elliott plays dreadnoughts not small bodied guitars. Usually his Yamaha Fg180 Red Label for live or later on a 60s Gibson J45 especially in the studio on XO and Figure 8.
Well made video, beautiful! Keep it up!
Thank you! Will do!
subscribed for the passion of ES! great job man
Thank you!
Wonderful video, you deserve way more subscribers
Wow, thank you!
that is definately not a small bodied guitar
He uses mainly a Yamaha FG-180 because is louder, because he picks the strings softer most of the time.
Yeah just a straight full bodied dreadnought lol.
The best ever 🎶
Great video! 😊
legend
great analysis!
Thank you!
Great vid!
Thank you!!
I’m interested in one of these videos with the Arctic monkeys or Alex turner himself
That's a good one!
This is a great video, but a little music theory might have helped.
What type of music theory would you like?
@@Axel_Ironvalley Its been a while since I watched this, but I feel like a bit of examination into the chord progressions he uses and the way he puts substitutions in and modal interchange while switching between parts of his songs might have added some good insight. As well as the unique voicings that elliott seems to use a lot in his guitar playing, and the common intervals he focuses on in regards to his melodies over his choices.
And chromatic movement
where is it able to listen to your song?
Hi, thank you for asking! Right now the only place to listen to it is here on RUclips.
Hes dead. He died
what r u waffling sbr
Is this a scarface reference?
He basically ripped off nick drake
He was way more like the beatles than Nick Drake. His actual songs don't sound anything like Nick Drake beyond the surface level. Nick made folk songs, elliott made pop songs.
this is an incredibly ignorant take
@neopolitancc4184 it's true. You are ignorant 👍
@@SonyaBladesBooty Nick drakes music is so different bro. nick doesnt own the acoustic guitar dawg
Doesn't sound like you've listened to either.
