This is how you express anger without shouting
it's not anger, it's pain.
@@berkeburhan It's both.
@@berkeburhan the two often go hand in hand
@@berkeburhan " But it can't help me get over " lyric really conveys what it means to have the dillema of drug addiction and surrounded by people you love more tham antyhing else. I don't know Elliot as an artist at all, i'm very unfamiliar with his work but this song is timeless in a way that makes songs legendary
Elliot would like that
Like seriously. Its only been two days, but how am I supposed to continue just living my life after hearing this song. WTF. I love this more than I can even understand.
Exact same reaction years ago when I first heard Elliott and somehow it was this song.
fucking
cringe
Just heard it off sk8 video an my love is found
@@RafaelASilva-hn5gw Elliot Smith’s alcoholism as a means to combat the physical and physiological stress of his step-father’s abuse during his childhood and adolescence.
that's the magic of Elliot bad dream fucker!
This version is so grunge, so heavy, but the song by itself is so deeply
This is the definitive version to me. I love the heavy distortion guitar... kicks everything up a notch.
Yes!
This really should be a point in the lost spiral car park that only people can offer vespas that are right, while sedona passive righteouseness on the hop of fear of single action rifes weilded by southern bells through the spiral stair case.
aINRGUBF AUA QROBF,
Oh Elliott, in dark days you are there.
Elliott Smith's immortal artist!
patznatter Hey man, I’m just some random guy on RUclips but I hope your days are cool and your nights are dreamy. ✌🏻
I wish you the best! x
@@blacklotus5364 heroic
Both versions has their own way of expressing the anger they hold inside but heatmiser version is something else... Man... I fucking love this song.
This is my number one favorite song by Elliott.
He was a master of melodies, plus his guitar skills. I really wished i knew him.. or at least seen him perform.
Same :/
He was otherworldly. Saw him the first time on the either/or tour. Sounds crazy I know, but in that all ages club, it seemed he was performing magic. He was so quiet, and soft spoken. But commanded so much attention, you could hear a pin drop when he was playing in the early days. Everyone was just....in a state of shock.
Patrick Chole wow - what a memory...greatest musician ever
@@RustinChole It's amazing to hear peoples experience of his live performances, I'm always so happy for the people that got to see him live, I really wish I could of but I wouldn't have even been 10. Such an amazing artist and my favourite musician by far. I have one of his CD's (Figure 8) and its wrapped up in my display cupboard. I hope all is well for you and thanks heaps for sharing your experience with his live concerts :)
This song is so raw and kick-ass! I love it! I really like this harder Heatmiser version better.
the world didn't deserve him but he deserved the world
this sounds rather pathetic but i just thought of it, and it is true so..
Let's not speculate about his decisions. Many of the best artists have unfortunately been troubled. He is a product of the world, but certainly not the masses as a distinct voice. The paradox is that we enjoy this very personal and brilliant music yet he struggled with the music industry and its pressures.
Just messed up a few friendships tonight and I needed to listen to this.
Get help. I relate to this guy so intensely because I understand addiction firsthand.
@@michaelh3992you and me, mate. Hope you are still fighting. 🙏
My favourite song of all time. Without any hesitation.
Nathan Napier absolutely
Possibly the greatest song ever
+Elliot Witch ^^^^
don't be cross it's sick what I want
A very serious contender, at least.
Thank God He's Dead For Wearing Leather Wrist Cuff He's In Hell
I much, much prefer this version, but this take is one of my favorite E.S. songs. On the S/T record, I gotta say, "Coming Up Roses" and "St. Ideas Heaven" overshadow the rest so much as isolated tunes go, that unless I'm just playing the whole record through where it all works, I don't generally reach for any of the other tracks as stand-alones.
The greatest songwriter of all time. Idc what anybody else thinks. OF ALL TIME.
Honestly he's my favorite songwriter of all time. He was insanely talented.
You don't get many songs that start with a major tonic chord directly followed by a minor tonic! Great, Elliott x
I'd say the song's in Fm and starts with IV to iv. 0:29 for example feels like we've reached the tonic. Still a cool/unusual chord movement though
It's neither, but a minor fourth without hearing the tonic in the first place is definitely unorthodox and I love the way he did it
Also my favourite song ever - that beautifully heart wrenching chord progression and evidently painful and angry message - it’s just perfect
So my mother was cooking something which called for some brandy. More than jusy a splash, so airplane bottles no good. Imagine my surprise when I see a bottle of Christian Brothers on their counter. So im chuckling, she is confused, so i explain to her about this amazing musician, and bring up my RUclips app.
Not only was Elliot on my search history, but when I went to show her, "Christian Brothers" was entered into the search heading; was the last thing I had been looking for.
Kismet. Love you Elliott.
Elliott was just ridiculously talented. Love how dark and menacing this version sounds compared to the one on Self-titled.
i get goosebumps every single time
one of my fav songs by him. rip elliott we all miss u.
Why do I somehow relate to this version more than the acoustic?
Cause it’s equally great, just in different ways?
There's a very raw quality to it..probably one of those one take recordings that works...its brilliant to hear the song with a full band sound..
This should have been on Heatmiser's "Mic City and Sons"... perhaps replacing "Half Right", that song fits better on his self titled album imo
I'm so glad this song came into my life. Miss you Elliott.
This song is literally perfect
I never play songs on repeat.
But this isn’t any old song.
I had only heard the album version before , this version has far more grit!! Amazing
Hope you all take care and good luck with your lives
Not a bad song by this wonderful human being..
I never meet him but i feel as though like many of us that he was a best friend..
Rest easy bro , I hate what happened to you..
Been listening to this song for years from QOTSA never know this version existed. Now I love both
I just heard the QOTSA version for the first time literally five minutes ago. Wow.
@@magdalenpowers1431 that’s how I felt about this version
Yeah man I fell in love with Qotsa and just discovered it was an Elliot Smirh song haha
This is the peak of music
Always good to get another version of one of your favourite songs! I really like this version.
I know few artists who showed so deeply in their works the black hole that is inside them like Elliot Smith. Sadly died so young.
Brilliant song
Full love my leader from Morocco!
What a beautiful song
Meu coração chora tinha tanto futuro pela frente claramente um dos melhores cantores que já passaram por este mundo!!
simplesmente o maior
The chorus that came from heaven beyond earthly E.S. was sent
So beautifully powerful
Como me encanta esta canción..
Yo tambien 😢
20 years since you left 💔
I have been listening to this for so many times now
awesome version
I love this fucking song with all my heart
No bad dream fucker's gonna boss me around
Amazing song!!!!!!!
so good
I dunno if anyone here has heard of Autolux, but when Tony Lash first uploaded this, I was like "Holy shit! This is like a hidden Rosetta stone to their sound...ten years in advance...", esp the first record "Future Perfect"
Being a failure fan, yes
@@nicholasfaith8999 Nice, dude. I actually never knew anything about Failure, until I was at an early-ish (around '05) Autolux show, and a few people in the crowd were there having sort of 'crossed-over' from being into Failure, and after talking to them I doubled back to check them out. Cos for me, Autolux was like a band that fell out of the sky, I mean they used recognizable elements from various genres, but the things put together were always pleasantly surprising. Most any band that used shoegaze-esque guitars, for example, had essentially a mechanical rhythm section, but Carla can cut loose like a jazz player, and that first single ("Turnstile Blues") bases the whole thing around a glitched-out but utterly human drum beat. Anyway, sorry, went off on an Autolux-ramble there, haha. To tie it back to Elliott again: There's a couple of other late-period songs that I also feel the same connection in: "A Passing Feeling", for one, in many parts feels like it IS an Autolux song--the fractured, twinkling tack piano, soothing but somehow also menacing vocal delivery, and especially the 'walking through quicksand' trudge effect once the heavy guitars kick in. Man, I really wish he would've at least been able to finish that last record. Easily my favorite
both versions are great
Just Brilliant
this song makes me think about the person i love the most, I miss him (MyP♥)
te amoooooo
I miss You elliott❤
Every single time😩
Amor infinito
My beloved Elliott always a part of me.
Lyrics:
No bad dream fucker's gonna boss me around
Christian brothers gonna take him down
But it can't help me get over
Don't be cross
It's sick what I want
I've seen the boss blink on and off
Fake concerns is what's the matter, man
And you think I ought to shake your motherfucking hand
Well I know how much you care
Don't be cross
It's sick what I want
I've seen the boss blink on and off
Come here by me, I want you here
Nightmares become me, it's so fucking clear
Nightmares become me, it's so fucking clear
thank you love!
This sick I want*
This music is so
What a masterpiece
Love
I've listened to this after a breakup high on opiates. This song feels like that time entirely.
Top 5 elliott smith songs
Version is so good
Such an old soul, Elliott.
esse baixo é tão foda
when the distortion kicks in...
This song wiped out the dinosaur
Also a little known fact is that this song is the one who rigged the 2020 US Elections not China.
Fuckin a the ending when it gets heavy is perfection
Correct.
When I saw him at the Showbox in Seattle he seemed so uncomfortable! ❤ I even made a bumper sticker with his name on it, I love/d his music so...
Nightmares become me its so fucking clear
original heatmiser romamcandle opened up a few people eyes that inevitably changed his life career why he play mostly acoustic not piano candle is all accoustic
he heard your phone call Elliot.the dagger to the heart. I'm sorry
Lyrics
No bad dream fuckers’ gonna boss me around,
Christian Brothers’ gonna take him down,
But it can’t help me get over…
Don’t be a cross, this sick i want…
I’ve seen the boss blink on and off…
Fake concern says:”what’s the matter, man?”
And you think I ought to shake your motherfucking hand?!
Well, I know how much you care…
Don’t be a cross, this sick i want…
I’ve seen the boss blink on and off…
Come here, by me, I want you here…
Nightmares become me, it’s so fucking clear…
Don’t be a cross, this sick i want…
I’ve seen the boss blink on and off…
Come here, by me, I want you here…
Nightmares become me, it’s so fucking clear…
NIGHTMARES BECOME ME, ITS SO FUCKING CLEAR…
[p.s: *The analysis of the lyrics*
The title of this song is so clever, Elliott is literal poet, Christian Brothers is not only the name of Brandy company but also that’s how a christian religious group is called, members of which have been accused of sexual harassment towards children…
“Bad dream fucker” quite obviously is his sexually abusive step father and alcohol “will take him down”, meaning that it is the way he uses to cope, but he will never be able to get over, as he says…
“Don’t be a cross” is a double message as well, he might sarcastically mean the purity of the idea of family in terms of christianity and that’s why he mentions cross, but he might also mean cross as angry, he also might mean himself asking his step father to not be angry at him..
“This sick I want” sounds like he has to choose between multiple sicknesses and he’d rather get sick by alcohol then by sobriety, that causes painful memories to be awakened…
“Boss blinking on and off” is his father, changing his attitude towards him, sometimes being nice to him and sometimes being abusive…
“Fake concern” shown by his step father makes Elliott mad, he feels disgusted by just the idea of shaking his hand, because he knows how much he actually cares- he does not at all, if he did, he’d never harm him in any way… him being the reason of his addiction and still asking “what’s the matter, man” fuels Elliott, rightfully so…
“Come here, by me, I want you here”( literally crying rn) is the most painful part and might be understood in two ways:
1. Shows his step father’s disgusting and abusive bossy attitude towards him;
2. Elliott speaking to alcohol as his savior, desiring it to forget it all with the help of it
And lastly, “Nightmares become me, it’s so fucking clear” is the most tragic part, the song starts with Elliott calling his sexually abusive step father “bad dream fucker” just to end the song with him saying he himself turned into a nightmare as well, he became someone he fears and it pains him, “its so fucking clear” is used to contrast with Elliott being Alcoholic, his vision being blurry, foggy when drunk but the memories and pain being still painfully clear.
This is the first years of Elliott living in L.A, he’s newly escaped from the madness going on in his family, forming band with friends and calling is Heatmiser, but when he starts his solo career as a single-songwriter, he includes this song in the first- self titled album as well, even though, the originally it was performed by Heatmiser, the version you’re listening to now is an old version and quite objectively is better than Self-titled album version…
( the analysis is NOT mine, I just wanted y’all to know what the song is about, i just feel like you can’t listen to it without knowing the backstory, if you want to read the original, just google it, the lyrics are discussed way deeper there)
Makes me want to drink some brandy.
lol
Why do these people die so young?
It doesn't help if your girlfriend is a murderous psycho with a knife obsession :/
Zaragoga murder
the drugs dont work
"The flame that burns Twice as bright burns half as long."
Great art comes from turmoil and unrest.
fucking emotional
2:35
Way better than self titled album version
Vinesuace sent me
noah bensley who's that?
No bad dream fucker's gonna boss me around
Christian brothers gonna take him down
But it can't help me get over
Don't be cross, this sick I want
I've seen the boss blink on and off
Fake concerns is what's the matter, man
And you think I ought to shake your motherfucking hand
Well I know how much you care
Don't be cross, this sick I want
I've seen the boss blink on and off
Come here by me I want you here
Nightmares become me it's so fucking clear
Nightmares become me it's so fucking clear
he should of came got you himself. you shouldn't of had to do that
"music video"
christian brothers>something in the way
a little too comforting...
Having just discovered elliots music . Very jeff buckley with the melodies.
beypazari gonna take him down
check for the qotsa version if you need rockier ;)
protomarabou No thanks. Fine with Ell
protomarabou QotSA's version is less rocky than this. They don't use drums or a normal band setup for electric guitars, it's mostly cajon and acoustics.
Check out the OSI version.
Elliots solo version is far much better!
No chance. This murders it
Who’s here because of Rick and Morty
I've got to admit trump reminds me of my grandfather in some ways. but better at public speeches.
Your grandad sounds woke!
How did his public speaches turn out?
Underwhelming
