Ah the name of one of my favourite singer/songwriters, Elliott Smith. Unfortunately, he killed himself and deprived people of more great music.

I never heard of Elliott Smith I don’t think- is his stuff well known?

Very.
He was nominated for an Oscar for one of his songs on the Good Will Hunting soundtrack but lucked out to Celine Dion’s big Titanic ballad. No one could have beaten that damn song!
