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."

Get the dub deuce mug.Nelphie is a term that originated in Creston, Iowa. It's understood to mean loser, but no one can really give you a concrete definition of what a nelphie is. If you ask, all you will get for a response is simply "You." or "If you have to ask you probably are one." My personal definition for a nelphie is hot topic clothing (bondage pants, shits with stupid sayings), stupid hair cuts (shaved heads except the bangs, mohawks), and listen to mall metal (Slipknot, Mudvayne, Mushroomhead). Also most nephies don't have jobs and never leave Creston (or the hometown that is partial to your town's nelphies)
Someone that wears bondage pants, a shirt that says "i'm not antisocial, i just don't like you" and is pumped about the new Mudvayne CD is a Nelphie
