Elliott Smith

Steven Paul "Elliott" Smith (August 6, 1969 – October 21, 2003) was an American singer-songwriter and musician. Smith was born in Omaha, Nebraska, raised primarily in Texas, and resided for a significant portion of his life in Portland, Oregon, the area in which he first gained popularity. Smith's primary instrument was the guitar, but he was also proficient with piano, clarinet, bass guitar, drums, and harmonica. Smith had a distinctive vocal style, characterized by his "whispery, spiderweb-thin delivery," and used multi-tracking to create vocal layers, textures, and harmonies. more »

 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

You're strong, you're stubborn now
In an endless symbolic war
Brave or bored, either/or

Sometimes I ricochet from the past
And at times a future Iâ??ve already had before
Champion or chore, either/or.

Iâ??ll write the pages you rip out, back in their places again
One day youâ??ll know what youâ??re talking about
I can hardly imagine, but until then Iâ??ll be

Filling in these blanks that you create 
Every time you win some petty score
Posing as hardcore, oh yeah, either/or

Look at the spin chief, battered and broken
Clutching a plastic rose
Weâ??re all in the downpour you carry around for
Trashing a lifestyle youâ??ve never known

Itâ??s a useful dream that makes
Quite an entertaining show and not much more
Up against and for, either/or

 Struggling with Either/Or? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!
