Do that thing
Lots of bands - even the despicable fucking abomination that is Coldplay - claim Elliot Smith as a big influence.

Not a very stable man, it has to be said, but eventually he'll be up there alongside Buckley, Hardin and Drake.

I was confused for a moment there because I thought you were talking about Elliott Carter.
Who as it turns out is 102 and still alive.

Don't do such evil shite to me
For you know my head is spinning and I can't do your heavy shite tonite.

I live in a land of contented doggys and kitties.
