And here's the original, lmao:
Elliott Smith was a singer-songwriter who spent a lot of time in Portland. He was very much a tortured artist, and had trouble with alcoholism and drugs, and eventually died in some weird circumstances. He was the one who wrote
Miss Misery for Good Will Hunting, and was nominated for an oscar for the song, and performed it at the oscars (although he was very skeptical about doing so).
Between the Bars is probably my favourite song of his, but
Waltz #2 is probably my second favourite. If you like this stuff, you should definitely look into getting some of his stuff. The 2 CDs I recommend are XO and Either/Or.
Also:
I fucking love this cover so much. Sam Tsui and Christina Grimmie are both amazing singers, and I actually like the song. I'm pretty sure I posted this somewhere here before, but I'm posting it again because it's absolutely amazing.
