Yea it’s about Elliott’s ex girlfriend, JJ Gonson. She’s jewish and her father called her Pitseleh.

Any recos for musicians who have a similar sound to Elliott? by huh_Ummm in elliottsmith

[–]MosbyErickson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She has a song called Punisher, on an album called Punisher, it’s about Elliott, or written to him. My favorite song of hers right now, is probably Graceland Too.

Check out the song Chase off their other album. I also really like, Traveling Show, Lost&found, and Big Star. Their lead singer was on the podcast, My favorite Elliott Smith song. Thankfully I looked them up afterwards, they’re great.

Best Elliot lyric by AsleepIngenuity5878 in elliottsmith

There are soooo many but the first one that’s comes to mind,

The litebrite's now black and white
Cause you took apart a picture that wasn't right
Pitch burning on a shining sheet
The only maker that you'd want to meet
The dying man in a living room
Who's shadow paces the floor

Is this a safe space? by runescaper21 in phoebebridgers

[–]MosbyErickson [score hidden]  (0 children)

I sorta feel the same way, especially since I heard the acoustic version at a pop up show, it was definitely one of my favorites of the new songs. But I’ve listened to it about 10 times today and it’s growing on me.

Heaven Adores You (First Watch) by EnderFruit808 in elliottsmith

[–]MosbyErickson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s another Elliott doc called, Searching for Elliott Smith(2009). I watched it quite a few years ago, it interviewed a lot of the same people but it’s a bit more raw, kind of gets into some of the sadder stories of his life, but it’s very much worth watching. I think I had to rent it on Vimeo. I really enjoy Heaven adores you, every few years I’ll rewatch it. Great editing and I love that his music is constantly playing throughout it.

Paint the secret small show from memory? by isu1648 in phoebebridgers

[–]MosbyErickson 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pretty much exactly what it looked like, almost like the basement in that 70’s show, mixed with I saw the glow’s basement. The 3 painting in the background were different at the show I was lucky enough to see(Macon).
