Portland’s own Elliott Smith will live forever through his beautiful music – here is a list of a few of my favorites from this talented singer/songwriter:
1) “Miss Misery”
The track used in the final scene from the movie Good Will Hunting:
Plus an earlier version:
2) “Angeles”
All your secret wishes
could right now be coming true
No one’s gonna fool around with us
3) “Say Yes”
Now I feel changed around
and instead of falling down
I’m standing up
the morning after
4) “Waltz #2”
Never gonna really know you now
but I’m gonna love you anyhow
5) “Happiness”
All I
want now
is happiness
for you and me
6) “Bottle Up and Explode”
Bottle up and go
I can make it outside
I’ll get through
7) “Wouldn’t Mama Be Proud”
If I crawl to keep it together
like you say you know I can do
Wouldn’t mama be proud?
“Kid, you’re on the right track…”
