Im pretty sure this performance was in Barcelona, Spain, 2000. Elliott wrote the song as it is here that very day and taught it to us that afternoon on the roof of the venue before soundcheck. I do prefer these lyrics over the ones on From a Basement on a Hill and I am so grateful for their posterity in this upload! Thank you!
ok i just did my homework and this is not the show where the song was first perfomed that night in Spain but later on that same tour in Gothenburg, Sweden
You get what you see You said that you saw me completely I thought you were looking through me But now I'll never know I don't look my best But I might suit you better than the rest If everything was selfless I'd be a brave man I'd stand still, burning Light up, learning But now, I'm just trying to sell my candles and St(r)uck down again There was a parliament of owls Flying over a city of canals And people taking pictures Of our star shooting down You get what you see But some things, they just change invisibly I don't know where I'm going I don't even want to know Stand still Burning Light up Learning Waiting for this evil spell to end St(r)uck down again Sailing oceans Sick from notion Thinking of the times you reeled me in Strung out again
hey hey does anybody know what year or pergaps even tour this is? sweet lord he sounds good. totally not one to lose control, instead puts that energy into his writing but Elliott sounds particularly soulful here, getting a bit diva. I love it. I really like the dysphoria of the sonic on the album but this is just magical.
Nm I got it. Mfing wow. This is great. Ballad of Big Nothing is probably the best song to kickoff a set ever. Dont fight me on this. You cant win. ... tho like, if you wanna blow my mind I'm so open to that.

I would have loved for him to have taught me a single song in person. Thanks for the report.
You played with elliott?
You get what you see
You said that you saw me completely
I thought you were looking through me
But now I'll never know
I don't look my best
But I might suit you better than the rest
If everything was selfless
I'd be a brave man
I'd stand still, burning
Light up, learning
But now, I'm just trying to sell my candles and
St(r)uck down again
There was a parliament of owls
Flying over a city of canals
And people taking pictures
Of our star shooting down
You get what you see
But some things, they just change invisibly
I don't know where I'm going
I don't even want to know
Stand still
Burning
Light up
Learning
Waiting for this evil spell to end
St(r)uck down again
Sailing oceans
Sick from notion
Thinking of the times you reeled me in
Strung out again
One of the greatest musicians of all time.
