I never thought about it before, but Elliott Smith is the perfect person to cover a John Lennon song. His voice has a beautiful vulnerability that shines through in performance.
I wish I could play bass notes with my thumb like Eliott could. His guitar playing was amazing. He is probably the most underrated song writer and musician of the 20th century.
I just wish I could easily move my hands swiftly throughout the fretboard from any distances possible from the nut, I wish it was intuitively easy, Elliott was an amazing pioneer at this.
You nailed that comment @NightEldar, many songs like this you want to remain quiet and low key, if it isn't broke, don't 'fix' it. The song stands on its own, just play and sing it as it was written as an homage to John Lennon, the starkness is part of the beauty, that is what such a beautiful piece deserves.
I’m not sure there was ever a world where Elliott could’ve overdone the vocals. I’m just picturing him singing Christina Aguilera style and it’s making me laugh so hard 😂
Lennon and Elliott! 2 artists that were taken way too soon. I know if John was still alive in the late 90’s and early 2000’s, he would’ve loved Elliott.
I think so too. George Martin was a fan of his and wrote him a letter telling him he liked his music and that he should give him a call if he was ever in London. I can’t imagine if those guys had worked together. Would’ve been the Beatles 2.0. I always wonder what Paul thinks of him. He’s had to have heard of him. Guess we’ll never know.
@@JunkBondTrader One thing that I've been noticing for years now is that people who don't discover Elliott Smith themselves have little appreciation until they have something happen (usually sad or difficult times)!in their personal life and then listen to Elliott's music and suddenly realize that everything they are hearing in his lyrics mirror. the same hardships that they are going through as . This seems to be the reason that so many people in almost all of Elliott's comments have at least one mention of how "Elliott's music has saved their lives" The guy is magical. The Motto for anybody that is going through emotional pain should be "Elliott knows"
He was such a sweet, warm soul. Every time I hear him sing it's calming and makes me take stock of life. He was a very deep guy in a understated way. I love the guy and I wish he would have went on and lived to an old, ripe age.
There's a part where the other guy almost in a joke, says "I'll count down for you" and Elliot takes a pause and looks at him. Such a small thing but when you're sad, things like that make all the difference. Sometimes it's the difference between a song and sometimes it's the difference between someone even picking up the guitar.
List of the top three people I'd most want to see cover Jealous Guy, and similar Lennon songs: 1. Elliott Smith 2. Elliott Smith 3. Elliott Smith, featuring Elliott Smith and Jon Brion. Hilarious chat as well between the two before the song.
Elliotts guitar and the production sounds great. Love this set. Poor Elliot was consumed by drugs and i hope that his spirit is at peace. And yours too
i don't think i'm imagining this -- at 1:52 when jon plays his fill it gives elliott the faintest hint of a smile -- i think he was pleasantly surprised by jon's musicality and genuinely enjoyed playing with him
It just surfaced last month, the entire concert is in one piece if you search "Elliott smith on jon brion show" or something like that :) .. I can't take credit for this though, I simply sliced it up into pieces :p
That was such a great cover. Way to go Elliot and John! However, Elliot, you were a bigger perfectionist than I have ever hoped to be and that is saying something! R.I.P. Elliot....
Gary Stephens I'm a huge Beatles fan.. But nothing compares to Elliott. I honestly whole heartedly believe Elliott was possibly the greatest songwriter who ever lived. Yes, better then Lennon. Elliott was so grossly overlooked, probably because most his music isn't instantly accessible. But he had it all - A prodigy, master guitarist and pianist. Well versed with many other instruments. The most emotion I've ever heard in a voice. The most poignant, heart wrenching lyrics ever written. And apart from the music, he was just such a lovable person. So smart, funny.. He made being awkward cool lol. He doesn't have the largest fanbase, but it is so so rare to hear someone say they hate Elliott Smith. I've never seen an artist on youtube with such a low dislike to like ratio. Not everyone gets it, but the ones who do, REALLY get it. Elliott was a genius swept under the rug. Maybe he and George are jammin somewhere in the cosmos :D
Seriously makes me cry 😢. He’s such a lovely person. I’m sorry life let you down. It sucks that beautiful souls like yours slip through our fingers. See you on the other side.
When Elliott Smith sings I will always be shivering inside His left foot is like a metronome throughout the entire song. he's mesmerizing such a talent With the way the video was titled I totally thought you were calling Jon Brion a Jealous Guy.
Mr. Ferry had the best cover, I thought, then this happened. An internet friend suggested Elliot if I was a Sparklehorse listener, so glad they did, LOVE the man's work.
God, he was always such a lovable guy but as Jon Brion stated, something was clearly not right with him here. Apparently it was the last time he saw him before he all but disappeared for a few years.
Elliott's eyes look pinned. I mean, they always sort of did, but when he was at his worst (and sadly, there us footage of him at his worst) he would act befuddled. He is doing it just a smidge, here. Sadly, it was a foreshadow of the near future.
I guess the reason why he didin't get as big as he deserved is the fact that to like him, first you've got to accept that life is ugly and pointless. Most people are afraid of coming up with this realization, and that's why Elliott never really hit the mainstream and will never do. His music points out life contradictions and gets you to call it into question. That's obviously not a bad thing, but somehow people just want to stick to the ideal meaning of life where everything is achieved with effort and life is always fair. Fuck no. Life isn't good all the time. And that's what Elliott's music is all about, at least for me. This is why a lot of people won't never like Elliott. They'll say that "his music is sad", when in fact, it's only about their fear of accepting that life isn't as good and happy as we are taught to think, that, indeed, life can get you all fucked up.
it's because of the stupid religion that gave people fake hope and made them addicted to the drug of god,it's like what karl marx said:religion is the opiate of the masses
hot doge I agree with the "meaning" point. You've got to make it up for yourself. If you wait for it to come to you, you will fall into the dangerous trap of nihilism since meaning will never come by itself. However my point was that happiness or sadness themselves don't exist as a mood. You're never fully happy and never fully sad. It's normally a mix of both. All of us have concerns that feed the shadows of our life and other things that light it as well. And Elliott's music seems to meet that sort of contradictions that existence has in its nature. Of course you can find a meaning in life, but it won't remove the pain. The pain won't remove your meaning either. I think existence is way more complex than just being happy or sad, which is what we are taught as kids. The first mistake is to think that we can find a full state of happiness and leave all pain behind. And only when we realize the cold truth that pain tends to strike back, and that it's impossible to get to that ideal state of full happiness, it's when we feel disappointed with ourselves and fall into depression, because you know, we thought we had overcome pain forever and it was never going to come back. Because we think we can only be happy or sad at one given point in life. The sooner we assume that pain is likely to hit us in the future, the less afraid we will be of it and therefore the happier we'll get. It's like people can't assume that pain and happiness can walk hand in hand, because that's what existence is all about. If you don't assume it, and think 100% of happiness is possible, whenever a 10% of pain strikes back it will completely overshadow the remaining 90% of happiness. Life is all about contradictory emotions and Elliotts music sums it up pretty good. I know it sounds so easy to do, but putting it into practice and assuming or being tolerant with pain is probably the hardest thing to do on earth...
@@jwolf267 One of the best comments I've seen on RUclips. I absolutely agree, Life is what you make of it. You can take It come what may or endeavor to make something meaningful of it for yourself and therefore, those you love. Life is so fragile, random and brutally unfair. Live it don't fear it, share it, don't try to hoard it. "There is only one happiness in this life, to love and be loved." George Sand
Miquel I completely agree, well said, however, while the pain in your life does not go away by putting meaning into life, it definitely does dampen the pain and give you something to fight towards. Other than that, your comment is truly poetic.
I was jamming to music in the background then decided to watch this til the end...I watch your trip videos sometimes so I almost loled when your logo popped up at the end, caught me off guard. Small world.
Guy got a freakin treat to play acoustic with Elliott and actually get him to play songs fully through haha. He was kind of bad with that at this point in his career due to his addiction. It's hard to tell if he's totally out of it or if it's meds, or if he really is just that shy and reserved. No one has mastered fingerpicking/strumming acoustic like Elliott. His ability to use a dozen plus chords, carry a bass line, a rhythm and a melody all on his own is unparalleled. His ability to put any finger on any string individually, in an up or down stroke, is wild. I've spent thousands of hours trying to learn to play some of his songs. Angeles being my most proud accomplishment.
Lmao I see what you mean now... Lol "and here we have Elliott, and.... Jealous guy over here... But in reality Brion probably was a jealous guy, of Elliott haha. No offence to Brion, but c'mon, Elliott's the envy of the indie/folk world lol.
the tall girl that caused an earthquake in my heart in the lapse of a weeknd left me and all i can do is think about her and listen to the most romantic heartbreak elliots jams
after many rumours saying that this song was dedicated to Julian, Paul or one of his partners, John said that Jealous Guy was about him, talking about his insecurities and the way he treated himself. This makes me think about the similarities with Elliott and the way he probably identified himself with the lyrics written by his idol. Such an emotional, genuine and honest cover.
Certainly! Though I can't take credit! If you're interested, I thought you might like to know the whole concert is uploaded in a single file as well. Cheers! Thanks for commenting :)
@@calisongbird No need to be a condescending jerk, my friend. Is that how you normally treat fellow human beings? What are some great Beatle covers in your view?
I’m curious how ES set up his acoustics, it’s always his signature sound. Seems like a low bridge saddle, and always run it through a pickup instead of mic’ing the guitar. Seems like he plays real low action and it takes away some of the acoustic chime.

I agree. He sings so gently, vulnerability is the right word.
Well said
Elliott covered another Beatles song Because. Brilliant cover.
@@cherrybomb1386he covered like 15 😂
Yeah, ignoring the fact that Lennon was a douchebag
I'd love to watch a documentary on why anyone would dislike this video
Rosie Douce beautiful comment
Jon Brion kinda looks like Dwight
That made me laugh
Maybe just cause it hurts a little
Even though it's so beautiful it is painful
When Elliott Smith sings I will always be shivering inside
the whole universe does it or should do it !!
Jon Brion loves him so much you can tell by how he looks at him. It’s sweet
Verty how do u know this ?
I wish I could play bass notes with my thumb like Eliott could. His guitar playing was amazing. He is probably the most underrated song writer and musician of the 20th century.
Listen to John Fahey & Elizabeth Cotten, then play their transcriptions, to learn how to play thumb bass
I just wish I could easily move my hands swiftly throughout the fretboard from any distances possible from the nut, I wish it was intuitively easy, Elliott was an amazing pioneer at this.
It’s not hard to play bass notes with your thumb
100% truth. Found fairwell is the perfect song
@jeannedarc7533 make 9 cords sound like 3 incredibly under rated.
IT SOUNDS SO GENUINE IT SEEMS AS IF HE WROTE THE SONG MAN!!!! I CRIED
beautiful cover, unlike most on the youtube where singers really overdo the vocals. this song has to stay simple.
You nailed that comment @NightEldar, many songs like this you want to remain quiet and low key, if it isn't broke, don't 'fix' it. The song stands on its own, just play and sing it as it was written as an homage to John Lennon, the starkness is part of the beauty, that is what such a beautiful piece deserves.
Absolutely. Word. He does such a wonderful job of it.

thank god for Jon Brion for making this happen and having recorded this so this magic didn't evaporate like a distant memory
It breaks my heart to think some poor souls in this cold world are so broken that they dislike such a beautiful Elliott performance
I don't get it either

Smith's voice sounds like it came from another planet.
The smile after nailing the whistle part
love that part too :)
The purity and innocence portrayed by Smiths voice is killer. He may not have been meant to live among the rest of us.
The way he says sorry is adorable

Such a voice and soul. The world is less complete with his loss, and so rich for what he gave us. We should be more thankful.
Such a haunting beauty from this cover in the rawness of his voice
I miss Elliott. Joy, passion, confusion, pain, sorrow; Elliott lived them and shared them with us. You’re with us no longer makes me ‘want to cry.”
I miss John.
Beautiful. This was the first song by Elliott Smith that I ever knowingly heard, a friend sent me the mp3 and I was hooked instantly.
Simply beautiful. I miss his genius 💔
Beautiful cover. Tender and talent personified
No matter who I play this for, it’s always received with the same appreciation
This is show is literally my favorite performance elliott has ever done. The happiness from it has to be my fav
Oh hey Paul, yeah it's so solid
Beautiful cover of a Lennon classic! Just wonderful!!
That was such a great cover. Way to go Elliot and John! However, Elliot, you were a bigger perfectionist than I have ever hoped to be and that is saying something! R.I.P. Elliot....
Jon Brion and Elliott Smith covering John Lennon in a show directed by P.T. Anderson? Epic!!
Elliott has such technical chord transitions, what a tearful song as well.
like the fab five..they made it look easy with 15 different chords in a song.
Gore Elohim I think Eliott could have easily been a Beatle. And yes, this is a rational statement.

Absolutely. He's criminally underrated compared to them.

I’m sure that John would’ve loved this! Rest in peace dear Elliott, say hi to John for all of us

Jon Brion is so underrated!!!

When Elliot really gets started words can't epresess what your seeing and hearing. Sadness for what more the world could have been gifted to witness.
I am a total snarky butch to anyone who covers the beatles or john but hes the only one i want to hear sing em. Miss you so much Elliott ❤

Haha you might be right, and yeah I can't blame him either.
Good Job 👍☺️
I’m curious how ES set up his acoustics, it’s always his signature sound. Seems like a low bridge saddle, and always run it through a pickup instead of mic’ing the guitar. Seems like he plays real low action and it takes away some of the acoustic chime.
Hi Elliott, thank you for crossing my path years ago, you made my journey more special and beautiful, thank you.
Wow never knew he covered this damn
John should have listened to this! Missing both
didn't want to hurt you, im just a jealous guy
Man, Lennon really was the GOAT
elliott's face as he starts whistling
Love it!!!
Feels good to see the guy smile
I do like that
Any guitarists out there who knows what key Elliott is playing in?
It's in the key of F, his guitar is tuned a whole step down so he's playing in G but it sounds like F if that makes sense.
+Gitai Vinshtok that makes perfect sense. Thank you!

and it great quality too! Quite epic indeed :)
