"Some people start…bands to, like, express their anger or whatever, and I'm not trying to express anything in particular. If they [my songs] come out kind of angry or depressed, I'm sometimes kind of angry and depressed and so are a lot of people." -Elliott Smith
This is a real artist. Not a performer with the big beat and ego, but a songwriter and an artist who got too tired about this world. I miss you since nearly 17 years now, through all the highs and lows of life, your music's always there. Thank you, Elliott.
a friend started calling me "miss misery", and he said it was because of this song. today, he's still calling me by this, and I'm still coming here, listening to "my song"...
I love Elliott Smith more than words can say. He is the greatest artist to have walked the face of this planet. I only discovered him just over 2 years ago and since then all other music now seems inferior. My life will always be incomplete because I never saw him when he was alive.
He's talking of keys in terms of music theory. Songs usually follow certain key that have certain chords. Elliott changed the key of the song for that part, which adds sort of different feel to it.
Always a weird feeling when you suddently find out about a singer and a song you never heard of before, but instantanely feel should have been a part of your life all your life. There it was! Unique!
Its just so sweet. Sweet sweet misery. Only Elliott can pull that off. Its TRUE misery, yet its one of the sweetest feeling songs Ive ever felt. God I love you Elliott. Thank you for your music.
I'll fake it through the day With some help from johnny walker red Send the poison rain down the drain To put bad thoughts in my head Two tickets torn in half And a lot of nothing to do Do you miss me, miss misery Like you say you do? A man in the park Read the lines in my hand Told me I'm strong Hardly ever wrong I said, "man, you're mean" You had plans for both of us That involved a trip out of town To a place I've seen in a magazine That you left lying around I don't have you with me but I keep a good attitude Do you miss me, miss misery Like you say you do? I know you'd rather see me gone Than to see me the way that I am But I am in the life anyway Next door the tv's flashing Blue frames on the wall It's a comedy of errors, you see It's about taking a fall To vanish into oblivion Is easy to do And I try to be but you know me I come back when you want me to Do you miss me miss misery Like you say you do?
Since 2003 my heart doesn't run the blood as it should. And my soul is just.... dark lines without sense... So I've lost the meaning of life, but i understand you. You needed it. Rest in peace!
beefcakepantiehoes it's currently my whole life in a nutshell for as long as I can remember b.t.w nice user name I can see you know Beck's song Loser too
a good friend introduced me to Elliott Smith. just a few days ago. He was also the one who introduced me to Johnnie Walker. I owe him much........... lol
I'm pretty sure he felt awkward a lot of the time, but it doesn't take away he didnt enjoy it. This was like his one time under the spotlight with this song, and Im sure he was like glad he got to see the day. He chose to not live as a star but I bet he never regretted getting a taste of it
This was shot not too far from my house. The smog cutter and most else is long gone but I walk this block listen to this song and try to pick out familiar details
I sang this in an audition for a high school musical. I was trying to use extra-curriculars to make up for shitty grades the moment I realized college was a possibility and I had a choice in the matter. I was a Senior.
So it's not like I needed an excuse, or mental STATUS. THERE WAS A BIG FREAKING FOREST AND ISOLATED LOCATION BEHIND THAT HOUSE! AND I WAS SCARED AS HELL.
Not to mention, he'd already done the video to Coming Up Roses before this, so it's not like he decided he was obliged to do a music video at this point in his career.

The expression on his face when he sings... It's like he feels every word, but he never makes a big deal about it. It's beautiful.
thats an amazing observation, really well put

-Elliott Smith
Oh please
Seem like he felt it all a little too much. Poor dude wish he could found some peace in life.
This is a real artist. Not a performer with the big beat and ego, but a songwriter and an artist who got too tired about this world. I miss you since nearly 17 years now, through all the highs and lows of life, your music's always there. Thank you, Elliott.
Elliott smith's music has been a big part of my life. There is NO artist that can affect me in the way his music has.
Only Death Cab moreso for me.
I was 28 years old when this came out & now at 51 years old, it still has the same feeling that it did all those years ago. Maybe even more...
Something tells me you’re an interesting person.
❤
if you look closely part of phoebe bridger's "motion sickness" mv was shot on the same street in la :)
a friend started calling me "miss misery", and he said it was because of this song. today, he's still calling me by this, and I'm still coming here, listening to "my song"...
great nickname you got
yes, I think it's super cool
Do you miss him, like you say you do?
@@thmyon2452 I miss him a lot, actually :v (your comment was what made me smile the most today, so thanks)
@@leticialima3512
I do also miss him, and I'm glad I made you smile!
This song manages to bring tears to my eyes every time. Without fail.
Very few artists can hit the zone of perfection with their melodies....he is one of them.
I love Elliott Smith more than words can say. He is the greatest artist to have walked the face of this planet. I only discovered him just over 2 years ago and since then all other music now seems inferior. My life will always be incomplete because I never saw him when he was alive.
"I don't have you with me but, I keep a good attitude."
Elliott Smith was truly a great songwriter.
So much talent and beauty in his music. RIP.
Man, this guy slays me every time.
Just realized how Elliott was being metaphorically stalked by Judgment throughout this video - throughout perhaps his entire life...
RTEHeydrich this is very true
I was thinking depression was looming over him
Cried for the first time in a long time cause of this song, thank you Elliott, amazing artist :(
you made plans for both of us , for a trip out of town.. to a place I've seen in magazines that you left lying around.. So simple and yet poetic.
its like in breaking bad when jessie and that junkie bitch go on a road trip
elliott smith probably knew a couple walter whites
The key change at 1:06.... jesus.
Smith was/is truly one of the greats.
Pardon my ignorance, but what key are you talking about?
He's talking of keys in terms of music theory. Songs usually follow certain key that have certain chords. Elliott changed the key of the song for that part, which adds sort of different feel to it.
Yeah man that part gets me every time
When he slides up a step and half it makes the song so dynamic. So incredible. I’m starting to write music and I’m using that same trick
The song transcends itself. It’s not even a song anymore but some entity in and of itself
"But i am in the life anyway" saddest part of this song.
:/
1:19 I love how the people in the backgrounds mouths open with the backup vocals.
1:38 also.
@@dhammdeepbhagatdd Yeah I love that!!! :)
Twenty years ago today. I still cry when I watch this video.
I never ever fail to get moved listening to Elliott Smith.
Elliott Smith's music is everything great art should be, dark, beautiful, and true,
Always a weird feeling when you suddently find out about a singer and a song you never heard of before, but instantanely feel should have been a part of your life all your life. There it was! Unique!
I love you Elliott Smith
Love the white suit, And when the piano comes in. Elliott was masterful at these waltzes
almost 20 years ago. truly melancholy.
RIP Elliott, nine years and you're still missed so much that you wouldn't know...
Thank you for the music. Thank you so much.
Incrível Canção que me transporta a outra dimensão! Elliott Smith inesquecível ---Thanks for sharing!!!
Love and miss you man...sincerely
The cop who was in this video is honestly cool as fuck for saying yes to "do you want to be in a music video"..... Amazing video. Love you Elliott
"Son of bitch, Stole my line"
Just tell them, "I had to go see about a girl."
I've just heard of this guy.. Omg! He is absolutely amazing. :) enjoy him very much so.
beautiful
Its just so sweet. Sweet sweet misery. Only Elliott can pull that off. Its TRUE misery, yet its one of the sweetest feeling songs Ive ever felt. God I love you Elliott. Thank you for your music.
Wow, what a brilliant song writer
R.I.P. Elliott Smith !
Thank you for putting up about the only decent version of this song. I love it. :)
Goosebumps...
Love him paying off the meters with the cop following him
Impressionante como a voz desse xara toca a alma
papo reto juninhox souza
Kkkkkkkkkkk pprt
RIP ELLIOT. Simple the great music. The poet. Tank you Mr Smith.
I'll fake it through the day
With some help from johnny walker red
Send the poison rain down the drain
To put bad thoughts in my head
Two tickets torn in half
And a lot of nothing to do
Do you miss me, miss misery
Like you say you do?
A man in the park
Read the lines in my hand
Told me I'm strong
Hardly ever wrong I said, "man, you're mean"
You had plans for both of us
That involved a trip out of town
To a place I've seen in a magazine
That you left lying around
I don't have you with me but
I keep a good attitude
Do you miss me, miss misery
Like you say you do?
I know you'd rather see me gone
Than to see me the way that I am
But I am in the life anyway
Next door the tv's flashing
Blue frames on the wall
It's a comedy of errors, you see
It's about taking a fall
To vanish into oblivion
Is easy to do
And I try to be but you know me
I come back when you want me to
Do you miss me miss misery
Like you say you do?
Late Thank you
Miss & love u dear Elliott ❤️
Perfect song
this seems 'Plainclothes Man' footage
Elliott Smith... such a legend
Since 2003 my heart doesn't run the blood as it should. And my soul is just.... dark lines without sense...
So I've lost the meaning of life, but i understand you. You needed it.
Rest in peace!
This song was my entire first year of highschool, such weird times haha
beefcakepantiehoes it's currently my whole life in a nutshell for as long as I can remember b.t.w nice user name I can see you know Beck's song Loser too
What an incredible song!
el ultimo gran genio...
It's hard for me to sing along without crying...
a good friend introduced me to Elliott Smith. just a few days ago. He was also the one who introduced me to Johnnie Walker. I owe him much........... lol
Still here 2020
Plainclothes man is in this video.
who the fuck downvotes miss misery?!
I'm pretty sure he felt awkward a lot of the time, but it doesn't take away he didnt enjoy it. This was like his one time under the spotlight with this song, and Im sure he was like glad he got to see the day. He chose to not live as a star but I bet he never regretted getting a taste of it
I love.
This was shot not too far from my house. The smog cutter and most else is long gone but I walk this block listen to this song and try to pick out familiar details
this video touches me
J'adore j'adore, trop top.
Love This
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELLIOTT SMITH!
i love you
can't wait to catch up with you one day sooner than you or i think
Beck has to thank Mr. Smith RIP
thanks Will hunting! R.I.P
Love him
Whenever I listen to this song I feel like everything is alright. And it turns out to be alright...
Feels weird to see him in a music video like that
Ten years today. Celebrate
A lot of people miss the humor behind Elliotts clothing choice. It’s like his, “I 💜 metal” t shirt
I like it so!!!
I sang this in an audition for a high school musical. I was trying to use extra-curriculars to make up for shitty grades the moment I realized college was a possibility and I had a choice in the matter. I was a Senior.
Agradeço por me apresentar elliott smith
I'll MAKE it through the day with some Johnnie Walker Red!
I am the grandson of existentialism and postmodernism son......
Elliot Smith
RIP
Who needs drugs when youve got Elliott Smith.....and drugs.
Nunca tinha ouvido,mas gostei do estilo, muito bom
Happy Birthday Elliott
Thats what friends are for!!!!!!
A dollar and 93 cents for a pack of camels I remember those days
I don't knew this fabulous singer, I find this today searching some velvet underground sounds, I Super coll. (Não conhecia puta músico).
every time i hear this i always see in my mind a light brown car driving in a long long highway
Happy 43rd birthday, Smelliott!
the great ones always die young
Dear Elliott Smith, we do, like we say we do.
its still better than heaven.
HE is so missed
rip.
R.I.P., Elliott Smith :/ So sad
maravilhoso
Thank Yew,Thank Yew!
RIP
"Im dressed up for the dance..all alone in romance..A white sport coat and a pink carnation/ I'm in a blue blue mood."
Lyrics - music - what else could you wish for?
I was looking for the saddest song about going away on holiday
So it's not like I needed an excuse, or mental STATUS. THERE WAS A BIG FREAKING FOREST AND ISOLATED LOCATION BEHIND THAT HOUSE! AND I WAS SCARED AS HELL.
Six people are just miserable.
or maybe
six people are not miserable
Helias Vieira OR MAYBE! Six people have no life at all, as to waste their valuable time going into places they don't belong and spew dislike!
Not to mention, he'd already done the video to Coming Up Roses before this, so it's not like he decided he was obliged to do a music video at this point in his career.
100/10
Dealing with a crappy virus in 2020. Is there anybody out there?
This music video is the unfamous version of the verve - bittersweet...!
please listen to the early version if you haven’t
