elliott smith

blogging brunette bombshell is back... I promised some elliott smith and here it is: I recently purchased New Moon from (you guessed it) CD World in Addison. Disc 1: My favorite song is #3, High Times--the crescendo up to the chorus is delicious. On Disc 2, my favorite song is #9 Pretty Mary K (other version). Although the guy at CD World gave it a rave review, I feel that some of the songs sound the same. I adore some of his extremely honest lyrics though. This album is made up of his B-sides and unknown tracks--
elliott committed suicide in October 2003. I like the album cover, bright blue with a city scene. On the inside of the CD there is a huge photo of Elliott looking confused, or maybe he's just bored. The CD is filled with essays that include intricate details about E. from those who knew him.
By the by, I made Cheesy Sleazy--it was delicious.
going to hit the sack.
