| okay quick question. if anyone here has ever tried to recommend elliott's stuff to other people, have you generally gotten positive or negative results? whenever i show his songs to my friends they laugh and say i have terrible taste in music.. |

| jackwhiteyum- I think it's all about who you recommend it to. For example, someone who enjoys mellow folk music (or good taste in music in general) will probably enjoy Elliott, where as someone who loves Miley Cyrus will most likely not. I've mostly gotten positive results with my friends. But it can't be denied that Elliott's music was raw and emotional and beautiful. But I think it all has to do with personal taste. Though I find it hard to believe people don't like his music. |

| Turns out the Lucky 3 and Thumbsucker versions are one and the same. I'm comparing to New Moon version right now. Best-ever might also be Sweden '98, a great soundboard recording. The song fits him like a glove. |

| I was on the phone with a friend to whom I had sent some stuff and said "I'll make you an fanatic in four minutes. Go listen, really listen, to Plainclothes Man." I pointed her to a particular live version. She called back awestruck, quoting the song and saying it was the best thing she ever heard. So I'd say the gritty stuff might be the way to turn people on. But everyone's different. The main thing is to have them realy listen--not in the car or as background, but real intent listening. |
