Elliot Smith bored me, but i checked him out like ten years ago when i was getting out of my almost-exclusively-metal-listener phase. maybe ill give him another shot sometime.

Elliot Smith is kinda overrated to me. I like his lyrics and his moodiness but his songwriting isn't something I'm terribly into

he's possibly the greatest songwriter of all time

Having almost finished Smith’s discog at this point, I think he’s really great and really consistent but definitely not the GOAT or even particularly close. A lot of his songs kind of frustrate me, and there are relatively few that blow my mind. Something that kind of bothers me in a lot of his songs is he doesn’t always do a good job of fitting his words into strong melodic lines.
A 4 is on the high end of things, how you gonna call it overrated when you like it that much? Doesnt make sense
I disagree with this. Bridgers isn’t a great example but take a case like OK Computer or something where the vast majority rate it at a 4.5 or 5/5 level. If you rate it a 4 then I think you’re justified in saying you think it’s overrated. Overrated =/= not good.

"he's possibly the greatest songwriter of all time"
cmon I could see someone being superlative about his lyrics, but songwriting? Really nothing compositionally impressive about his songs

About time, new song is wonderful too
I listened to what was considered essential Elliot Smith albums a little while ago, they weren't really anything that blew me away; solid but hardly outstanding imo

Much much better than Garden Song imo, makes me think that song would work better in context
