It's pretty painful to look at a list of the last songs Elliott wrote ... easy to read too much into their titles. Names like "Strung Out Again", "Fond Farewell", "Get Lost", "Shooting Star", "See You in Heaven", and the mp3 I'm posting this week, called "A Distorted Reality Is Now A Necessity To Be Free". It's the b-side of his last release, the limited edition (and now long gone) seven inch single for "Pretty (Ugly Before)".
There's also an amazing early outtake of his on my mp3 page called "Angel in the Snow", which I posted in late summer. There was a memorial for Elliott in NYC's East Village last night, and apparantly there was one in the Boston Common, too. Of course it was a gray, rainy night. I wasn't able to go to the Boston one, but I'm thinking about a get-together at an area bar sometime soon. The motivation comes and goes. We'll see. |
