"...two tickets torn in half..."

this recording breaks my heart.

i wish i could be more specific about what exactly it is. i have a bunch of live elliott smith that i snagged from someone's archive back in the fall and imported to itunes before realizing it didn't have any kind of identifying info on it. one day i need to go back and re-download, that'll be a project.

but. point being, this version is clear and thoughtful and heartbreakingly beautifully emotional. and the pauses... oh the pauses where he vamps with just the main chords...
