Folk-rock singer who was considered one of the best songwriters of his generation. He was best known for his songs from the film "Good Will Hunting" and songs that focused on drug addiction, failed relationships, self-loathing, suicide etc. His music was very sad, indeed.
He started out as an indie singer in Portland, but gained more recognition when Gus Van Sant decided to use some of his songs from his 1997 album called "Either/Or" (which is probably his best album). Smith also wrote a song for the movie called "Miss Misery," which earned him an Academy Award nomination. Unfortunately, he lost to Celine Dion (It was the "Titanic" year).
Sadly, Smith took his own life in Fall of 2003 by plunging a knife to his heart. He was 34.
Smith has done 6 albums; "Roman Candle," self-titled album "Elliott Smith," "Either/Or," "XO," "Figure 8" and a posthumous release called "From a Basement on a Hill."

The only female rapper who doesn't rely strictly upon her body to sell records. Intelligent, creative, and in posession of a mind of her own.
"Missy Elliott isn't a shit-spewing woman-bot."

Elliott Smith was a well known American singer-songwriter and musican. His voice was known as being whispery, and thin, yet cold as ice. After being in a band called Heatmiser for a few years, he began a career in solo singing in 1994. he was well known for battling with alchol, depression and drugs and often included them in his songs. He died on October 21, 2003 at the age of 34. I think his best album was *Figure 8.*

Elliott is a weird,pretty, interesting, funny, and abusive person. She is rough with her friends but is a great friend and always sticks up for friends and family. If you have an Elliott in your life keep them.She is insecure but has nothing to be insecure about. Elliott is a creative brave girl. And Elliott is not afraid of anything, she is down for any adventure and dreams about doing the craziest things.
