i have mad respect for anyone who covers this song and actually takes on that intro.. many skip it over but it really sets the tone for everything to follow
Wow, I absolutely love this, Elliott Smith is my favorite artist, and this is my favorite song by him, because of how haunting it is considering his death. Your cover definitely does the song justice and your voice is incredible! I play guitar and (attempt) singing as well and this is truly inspiring to me... so thank you :) I made sure to subscribe!!
Wow. Elliott Smith is my favorite musician, and its not often a cover really _hits_ it for me, you know? But you totally did with this once. Lovely voice. Lovely mood. Just... so good.
The intro gave me plenty of time to convince myself I was going to hate this cover, but when the lyrics started, I felt this jam was (!) more effective than even the original. Props bro.
Does anybody know the chords to the song scott's playing? I would really like to play the song. By the way scott, excellent cover man i can really feel the emotions you put in it while playing. Your songs as well, good job.
That was amazingly good... just...wow! You have a gorgeous voice and you kind of took the template of the song and made your own version of it. It is so good! Put up more please!

Capolavori. La canzone e la tua versione. You are great Scott Liss.

This deserves no dislikes. Fabulous cover
Sometimes it all falls apart; hold your own light. No matter what or how often you choose; Ill always love you.

It sounds like a different song entirely.
I like it. A lot.
The intro gave me plenty of time to convince myself I was going to hate this cover, but when the lyrics started, I felt this jam was (!) more effective than even the original. Props bro.

Nice where are you from man. I really like it
What tuning is this in ? PLZZZ TELL

I have horrible ears, but what tuning is this in?
Wow. Well fucking done.
Is there a tab for this
This sounds like Radiohead , intro wise. Little "paranoid android" but mostly " go slowly"
are you mumford or one of his sons?
this should be illegal for being too good
omg your voice
Anyone know the chords for this?
+Mediocre Covers i do
Are you willing to share them with me?
yeah. I cover this one.
intro 9998 2221 5555 11,13,11,12(14)
verse 9998 5555 7978 7777 2221
frustrated fireworks, 7978 7777 99,12 555
the other bits are a combo of those chords
I'm pretty sure we all do
5 stars
Why the fuck doesn't this have more views and more followers. . .I need more... Please serenade me again good ser.
If talent won subscribers you'd be Pewdiepie.
it reminds me of radiohead
Good voice man! But if you sped it up and put that element of serious despair in... fuuuuck that would've awesome.
nah it was great as is- MAN!
Can't fake it man. Gotta sing how you feel
The big problem is the main attraction
Dominoes are falling in a chain reaction
The scraping subject ruled by fear told me
Whiskey works better than beer
The judge is on vinyl, decisions are final
And nobody gets a reprieve
And every wave is tidal - if you hang around
You're going to get wet
I can't prepare for death any more than I already have
All you can do now is watch the shells
The game looks easy that's why it sells
Frustrated fireworks inside your head
Are going to stand and deliver talk instead
The method acting that pays my bills
Keeps the fat man feeding in beverly hills
I got a heavy metal mouth that hurls obscenity
And I get my check from the trash treasury
'Cause I took my own insides out
It don't matter 'cause I had no sex life
All I want to do now is inject my ex wife
I've seen the movie and I know what happens
It's a Christmas time
And the needles on the tree
A skinny Santa is bringing something to me
His voice is overwhelming, but his speech is slurred
And I only understand every other word
"Open your parachute and grab your gun
Falling down like an omen, a setting sun
Read the part and we turn out fine
It's a hell of a role if you can keep it alive
But I don't care if I fuck up
I'm going on a date with a rich white lady
Ain't life great?
Give me one good reason not to do it (because we love you) do it
This is a place where time reverses
Dead men talk to all the pretty nurses
Instruments shine on a silver tray
Don't let me be carried away
Don't let me be carried away
Don't let me be carried away
hand in marriage
