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 Smith was one of the greatest singer/songwriters ever. Elliott was from portland. He was not folk, even though he played acroustic He came out with his 1st solo album, Roman Candle, in 1994. He was nominated for an academy award for his work in Good Will Hunting,but lost to Celine Dion. Most people believed he comitted suicide, but I'm convinced his girlfriend killed him. I mean, seriously, who spells their name wrong on their suicide note? Some people think his songs are depressing, but I don't think so. Anyway, Elliott Smith is an artist much missed. Check out the following songs: Between the Bars, Say Yes, Son of Sam, Somebody I Used to Know, In the Lost and Found, Miss Missery, Let's Get Lost, Pretty (Ugly Before), A Fond Farewell, Twilight, and Memory Lane.
1. Bob: Elliott Smith's girlfriend totally killed him.
Me: Yeah.
2. Elliott Smith is so amazingly talented, I wish
I could've seen him in concert, but I was only 9
when he died.
Me: Yeah.

An artist that only sad people listen to. If anyone you know listens to Elliott Smith, don’t. People who listen to Elliott Smith will develop an obsession with him and will cry anytime they are alone. They may look pretty, but do their red flags as well?
