thx so so much for the positive response everyone! im always surprised how quickly views seem to rack up, but im especially taken aback by this one given its relatively obscure nature. also, i will certainly redo this one one of these days to fix that chorus 🤧 (if u didnt notice anything, lets keep it dat way ;) ) - ashton

I started really disliking Elliott covers until I heard you. You are much more talented at doing Elliott covers than anyone else. Sometimes I think better than Elliott’s version. I thought I would never ever say that 😮. I’ll check your channel, but do you have any originals?

Excellent! Made Elliott proud with this killer rendition of likely a very personal song to him.

This is one of the best Elliot Smith covers I've seen. Really clean guitar playing and nailed the vocals as well.

Fucking perfect. I hope this blows up-you deserve it.

this is the most beautiful cover I've heard

This is real good, man. You keep on going. God bless you.

holy shit I always think people butcher Elliott but you did this perfect son Justice. Whole heart. Thank you!

Absolutely slayed it, thank-you

so powerful both in your moments of loudness and quiet this kind of left me with my jaw dropped

Beautiful. Bravo

Amazing dude I’m blown away goosebumps when you started strumming bro you’re great

This is incredible!!

Bro its so good

you can SING, amazing cover

Incredible voice. It suits his songs perfectly

This is beautiful. I had to stop myself from crying while listening on a run

I'm 34 & have been listen to Elliott Smith since about 16. Your covers are the best I have ever heard. Your voice is incredibly similar to Elliotts , but i think, perhaps most importantly, you understand and feel his lyrics personally. Like myself and so many others. Thank you you sincerely & take care

this means so much 🥹; thank u sincerely for listening

I think your voice is a great fit for Elliott's songs, and you do great on the guitar too, both with getting all the little notes and the energy

This is far better than the original, which is ridiculous. The acoustics in your car are great also

your voice is beautiful, Elliott'd be proud ♥

Please continue with your covers !

oh my god... just echoing everyone else here to say that this might be the best elliott smith cover I've ever heard. glad I clicked!

Well done bro guitar playing is great and so is the singing 🤘🏼👏

Really great job!

This is legitimately the best Elliott Smith cover I've seen in a long time. Is it possible you could do a lesson on how to play this?

gorgeous wowowow your guitar has such a nice tone

great cover!

This cover was so good!!! I loved it, anything Eliott Smith related has the potencial to be amazing. Also, can you do a cover of "Pretty (Ugly Before)"? Or maybe "Twilight"? Both are Elliott songs. Thank U ♥

good shit brotherr

fucking amazing

might like this just as much as the original

Do more. These are really good 👍🏽

Super cover man!

Wowww great job man

sweeeeeeëeeeeeet

Another amazing cover, one suggestion, for the chorus start on the F# and then slide up to A, then down to E and then C#m (I think). Then repeat it but end on the E and B back to the verse like you've done..

Really enjoy this cover. Does anyone have a tab or tutorial for this particular version? I am having trouble finding anything.

I’d love to see/hear you do a cover of Stickman.

Now that everybody's worn the expression Not that you wanted to use It seems untrue now But the funniest thing is it fit's you now To a perfect T You may never understand this affliction Although you feel the effects you feel Bruised now, body and mind you feel Used now, almost all of the time been abused Abused abused Sunday morning in the aisle with my brother Watching the men in black tell the youths how You're supposed to behave And tell the truth now You don't know what you're saying We've been abused abused Abused abused Abused abused Abused Other people see some evil intention But the closer you get The more you get confused how Why does everyone know been abused now Didn't want it to show

I think I need you
