  • Any other Elliott Smith fans in here?  I can't find anyone who shares my addiction to his music in real life, and I'm beginning to think I'm the only guy who's even HEARD of him.

  • Your favorite band sucks, and you have terrible taste in movies.

<div style='font: 10pt Arial, Modern; text-align: left; '>I'll say. I did a search on "Elliott Smith" on Google and got a link to the Elliott Smith Contemporary Art Exhibit in St. Louis. You know a musician's not well-known if he gets listed after contemporary art on a search engine.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt arial, Modern; text-align: justify; '>No, he didn't write the music for American Beauty. He just had a song on the soundtrack. It wasn't one of his better pieces, either. Good Will Hunting had better stuff.</div>
