PS: [pre-script] The man I mentioned in my first post, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, was so short due to years of inbreeding. Just thought I would indulge any readers with that little tidbit of information, it sure put a smile on my face.

Back to Elliott Smith:

I love Elliott Smith. I go through phases where, for weeks at a time, I only listen to Elliott Smith.

“Between The Bars” is probably my favorite song of His [once again, a Godly His]. You know he killed himself, right? Stabbed himself, repeatedly. I really have nothing else to say about Elliott. Well, that’s a lie, I could write endlessly about my fondness for him. I’m still mourning his death. I won’t say anything else though. If you aren’t familiar with him, you should be. He’s a beautiful songwriter.

Oh, and check this out. [in the words of Coheed's New Trick- You think THAT'S amazing, check THIS out]… This is a clip from The Royal Tenenbaums, with Elliott Smith playing in the background. The Royal Tenenbaums is a Wes Anderson movie. Wes Anderson is another one of my heroes.

and I just found this, it’s “related” to the above video. Kermit the Frog is making fun of the scene from the Tenenbaums. Hahaha. I don’t know why I think it’s so funny.
