Fuck yeah, I'm almost at 10 years in recovery from substances and I feel the same way. His intense feelings validate my intense feelings. Like this guy knows what addiction and mental health issues are like.. Longgggtime fan.
Every time I listen to Elliott smith I worry it wont be as good as i remember, that the magic could fade away, and yet every time, within 10 seconds, boom! goose bumps. An artist that NEVER gets old
This is so true. I used to listen to this music like 12 years ago, but it was never in my main rotation - always moreso EDM. Yet, every other year, something will remind me of elliott smith (good will hunting reference, a sad winter's day, rick and morty etc) and I come back to this song and it's just as good as it was the first time I heard it. I remember the exact emotions and feelings I was going through in my life at that time 12 years ago, it's like being transported back in time to when I was on the cusp of coming of age.
I started listening to this song when i was a child, poor, with a violent father, and with out a Mother. I used to imagine my future, where i could get rid of that fcking lífe; today i'm a grown man and altought im not totally happy, i look backwards and i do not miss misery.

Sending love back in time to the brave and imaginative child in the horrible circumstances that you were. Not pity, only respect, and wishing that child the love he deserved
Are you one of the few people who never had that thought at some point? It's usually followed by the realization "who did though?" Also, it's mostly said by people when they're on the younger side. Have some compassion dude.
I love the build up of slight hope and confidence in 0:50-1:03 only to have it dashed back down to his typical state of misery and insecurity. This song feels exactly like when one is an alcoholic or heroin addict, how 95% of it is misery and hurt and there’s that 5% when you take the first chug or line or shot in the morning it feels like you can finally take on the day with some good happy energy but after an hour it’s literally all gone and back to feeling soul abandoned and crushed.
Elliott is one of the most talented artists I have ever known. He has been my favourite musician since I was 10/11 and he's helped me through some really tough times. My sister once told me that no one else understood what I wanted, but Elliott Smith would have. She said I'm a lot like him, I always notice it when I'm talking to people, especially. R.I.P Elliott Smith, you were such a beautiful soul, you were too precious for this world.
Phoebe Bridgers alludes to this video in her video for “Motion Sickness.” At 0:34, Elliott (a noted influence of hers) walks down N Hoover St. in Silver Lake (on the border of East Hollywood). Phoebe walks the same stretch in “Motion Sickness” in a suit and sunglasses as well...a nice little visual callback to this video. It’s almost shot-for-shot.
KID CUDI IS WALKING IN THE SAME STREET IN HIS MUSIC VIDEO DAY N'NITE,look at the start of this video,"smog cutter" right, well go to the day n nite music video and at exactly 2:13 u see the same "smog cutter"
@@lukavuksanovic3266 wow, great catch-just rewatched “Day N Nite,” and he heavily references this video. never put Cudi and Elliott together before, but I definitely see it. more importantly: Cudi and Phoebe just collaborated on his most recent album...”Lovin’ Me.”
I'll fake it through the day With some help from johnny walker red Send the poison rain down the drain To put bad thoughts in my head Two tickets torn in half And a lot of nothing to do Do you miss me, miss misery Like you say you do? A man in the park Read the lines in my hand Told me I'm strong Hardly ever wrong I said, "man, you're mean" You had plans for both of us That involved a trip out of town To a place I've seen in a magazine That you left lying around I don't have you with me but I keep a good attitude Do you miss me, miss misery Like you say you do? I know you'd rather see me gone Than to see me the way that I am But I am in the life anyway Next door the tv's flashing Blue frames on the wall It's a comedy of errors, you see It's about taking a fall To vanish into oblivion Is easy to do And I try to be but you know me I come back when you want me to Do you miss me miss misery Like you say you do?
*A man in the park Read the lines in my hand Told me I'm strong Hardly ever wrong, I said: "Man, you mean...." You had plans for both of us that involved a trip out of town....
Elliott became a good friend of Minnie Driver's. They used to go to concerts and check out new bands, and they also hung out and played music together. For those interested, Minnie Driver recorded Waltz #2, a song written by Elliott, on her latest CD called Ask Me to Dance.
When I heard the Elliott Smith reference in Rick and Morty, I was ecstatic that my favorite show mentioned my favorite artist, and that the entire world would look him up if they didn't already know who he was. His music is meant to be listened to and enjoyed. It isn't a secret that should be kept from the world, it should be a standard and an influence for all present and future music.
That's how my fiance felt! That's how he convinced me to start watching Rick and Morty, I thought it was gonna be a dumb show, but I ended up loving it. He passed away 3 years ago... I miss him everyday... Andrew, rest in peace... 💕
I got to be 54 years old to randomly land from a cartoon (Rick and Morty) to one of the best songwriters who ever lived. Only to discover that this man I never knew existed had already died, leaving the world, and now my life, a bit richer than it was. The universe is an amazing but sometimes sad place. Thanks Elliot. Cya on the flip side.
Elliott Smith’s pieces of music always brings me back to a time where live was sweet, innocent and naive. I will never stop listening to his magical poetry
Elliott Smith was the greatest songwriter that ever lived in my opinion. Lou reed, bowie, dylan, not even the oh so beloved john lennon have acheived what elliott had in a fraction of their career spans, and that is an extremely extensive discography that remained consistant throughout. Even smiths unreleased stuff is great. Cant wait to see the new elliott documentary!
"If you rewrite your life may I still play a part? In the next one won't you find me? I'll be the boy with the pink carnation pinned to my lapel, who looks like hell and asks for help. And if you do, I'll know it's you."
This is a great song, I heard it at the end of Goodwill Hunting and had to get it. Definitely one of the songs of my life’s soundtrack. What a loss of a great singer and songwriter. God bless you.
funny thing is i never got into elliott smith because of any media it’s simply cause i was named after him and i got super interested and i dug deeper and i’ve never felt such depression and hope in one persons music that it makes me very happy to know such an artist
Thanks for sharing your name with everyone here... And funny thing that actually someone thought it would be a good idea to name their child after a suicidal drug addicted. But yeah, I'm a fan of his as well....
@@hicrhodushicsalta4382 So you think he stabbed himself in the chest.....twice LOL. Ok, guess we all have something ridiculous that we believe in so do you bro
for sure if I ever have a platform as big as Roiland and Harmon do with Rick and Morty, I would for sure throw some Elliott Smith references and songs in every once in a while.
Chord progressions, and unbridled honesty & foresight. I for one am still amazed sometimes that he ever existed :) Gives me hope for humanity, sorta ;)
Damn. Posted 18 years ago and this popped up in my recommendations. I’m glad I got to see him once at least. He will always remain my favorite musician.
Shit. This comment is 9 years old and it was the 8 year anniversary? That's wild. I literally remember so clearly skipping all my college classes the day I heard of his passing. 😔
Happy birthday, Elliott. I know I'm late by a day and that happy is relative. In heaven there must be joy after all this pain. So... happy forever to you. You left us a beautiful road map.
Haven't heard this gem of a tune in a while, so I looked it up on RUclips, and then.... I didn't know he passed away! I feel so sad ... This song brings back so many memories ... He was so talented...very sad...
Everytime I hear this song or any other Elliot smith song I think of my favorite movie good will hunting and it makes me happy. But damn this song is hard, RIP LEGEND
I'm always going to come back to this, even if life get easier sometimes, that hole that sinks me in gets in the way with no warning every night but I must admit, Elliot does help like no one else, I think he was one of the few artist that could ilustrate how hard life can be, a true poet that always talked from the heart. RIP Elliot, wherever you are I'm sure you're making it a better place.
Yeah, his honesty is one thing that set Elliott apart from... well, any other artist in history. You can just feel his sincere and genuine expression in his lyrics, and his beautiful "wounded" tenor voice. I too have trouble fathoming his existence. There never has been, or never will be another like Elliott again, he was truly one of a kind! When I think of the negatives in humanity, listening to Elliott makes me feel like the world truly is a beautiful place. Miss him so much! My best friend..

Internetz, you never change. TINY RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICK!
In memory of Elliott, I will listen to all of his albums today (like I don't do it everyday). Happy birthday Elliott Smith I can't thank you enough for your music and may you RIP
Wow. I used to play this video incessantly back in the day when I was living on the east coast. Love this song and Elliott's suit. By random chance, an opportunity popped up to move to Los Angeles and I'm now living a few blocks away from Smog Cutter. Can't help thinking of Elliott and his suit everytime I walk by. Such a great song. Thanks Elliott. and Ross Angeles!
RIP Elliott Smith. You don't know how many lives you saved with your music.
❤Amen❤
rip elliott you would pf loved my friend maisy (she has a crush on him) 😁
13 years sober from heroin its been a long journey, but I'm still here thanks to music like this that helped me get by 🙌🏻
Congratulations 🎉 keep going on

One of the most brilliant artists ever. He expressed his depression in such a beautifully tragic way. His music truly gets to you. Raw emotion
His songs make me feel better. Expressing the things we all feel, in some degree or another. I love having a good cry after, too. That always helps.
Every time I listen to Elliott smith I worry it wont be as good as i remember, that the magic could fade away, and yet every time, within 10 seconds, boom! goose bumps. An artist that NEVER gets old

It gets better every time. As I get older 😅

In memory of Elliott, I will listen to all of his albums today (like I don't do it everyday). Happy birthday Elliott Smith I can't thank you enough for your music and may you RIP
God bless this man.
RIP Ellliott Smith and RIP the Smogcutter bar on Virgil in East Hollywood - what a great dive bar!!!
Wow. I used to play this video incessantly back in the day when I was living on the east coast. Love this song and Elliott's suit. By random chance, an opportunity popped up to move to Los Angeles and I'm now living a few blocks away from Smog Cutter. Can't help thinking of Elliott and his suit everytime I walk by. Such a great song. Thanks Elliott. and Ross Angeles!
Lol if you're here because of Rick and Morty you're at the wrong video. The video you're looking for is Between the Bars by Elliott Smith
Cheers, mate!
Playing Elliott on loop.. 🎶💔
