See "Several 5/5 tunes didn't make the cut"



"Angeles" is top 15, possibly even right at #11 - the one-two punch of "Be Quiet" and "Can't Make" hits me too hard for me not to include both songs in the top 10

Had only heard the songs off the GWH soundtrack (which, FTR, I had no idea was Elliott Smith), but this thread inspired me to check some of his stuff out. Absolutely incredible. Looks like I have another discog to buy and listen to. I am so backlogged, I’m afraid I’ll die before I hear everything on my queue lol.

Surprised people don’t rate Say Yes higher - that’d be my favourite song on all but two Beatles albums...and on those two it’d prob be second or third best.



Prob the only American songwriter to get away with such Anglophile tendencies/overt Beatles worship

Say Yes is my favourite Elliott song Doof, you've got someone who rates it.

I know it’s the basic bitch pick but “Between the Bars” is such a perfect little song.

Between the Bars, Angeles and Say Yes is a basic bitch top 3 but that hasn't stopped me

Yeah my tops are those plus “Alameda”, “Big Nothing”, and “Punch and Judy”. Everything else is still great though. Can def see this becoming a 5 in time. Right now Bars is still the only song I’d rate 5/5 but I can see several of those other tops getting there in time.

"Bars" is a ~pleb pick~ for a reason: because it's one of those songs that *everyone* knows is amazing

That’s a good pick too luci, there isn’t really a duff moment here to be fair. Closest it gets is “2:45 AM” but even that is very good.

Definitely gonna spin some of his albums soon. The songs I’ve heard are stunning.

I don’t wish it was longer but it’s the only track here that doesn’t really go anywhere.
