Elliott Smith is fantastic. Shame that he died though... My boyfriend turned me onto him back in November. Thirteen is a beautiful song. Probably my favorite by him. You should check out his other albums.
Wow I've listened to some of his stuff, but not the kind of really listening, just you know to pass by time. But I get you there are some levels of understanding that have nothing to do with inpersonal compassion, or love. Its a bound
Yeah, he killed himself because of his girlfriend at the time. Bogus.
