Elliott Smith 1969 - 2003
« on: October 22, 2003, 04:37:09 AM »
What a sad day.  I woke up to the news that Elliott Smith had taken his own life by self-inflicted stabb wounds.

I was a big fan of his music and work and I think it\'s a huge loss to the world of music.

I really don\'t expect many of you to know who he is after seeing what kind of music most of you listen to here but still thought I would honor him at this board.  Some of you might have heard his songs on the Good Will Hunting Soundtrack though.

RIP, Elliott. Your music will live on...

Yeah that\'s what I heard. He\'s been having depression problems his whole life though so it wasn\'t that big of a surprise really. He had been having serious mental problems the last few years but was supposedly getting better now and was almost done with his latest album.

Racer, well now would be a good time to check out his work if you\'ve never heard of him.

I guess you could start with the song Miss Misery since it\'s easily available on kazaa and the likes. He was oscar nominated with that song for the Good Will Hunting soundtrack.

I don\'t know who he is but R.I.P anyway.

R.I.P "Hawk" from Legion of Doom and Stu Hart (Brett\'s dad) also.

I\'ve heard of the songs now, just didn\'t know who they were by.

You know, listening to the radio thinking "nice song, wonder who sings it?"

Yeah. He truly made beautiful music.
He also had a song on the soundtrack for The Royal Tenenbaums - "Needle In The Hay", and it\'s played during the scene where one of the characters tries to commit suicide, kinda ironic...
