Goodbye Elliot Smith
Sad news... Elliot Smith passed away at 34 of an apparent self-inflicted knife wound.
Smith gained public interest after his songs was featured on the soundtrack of the movie "Good Will Hunting" and his song "Miss Misery" was nominated for an Academy Award.
"I don't really have any goals as a songwriter," he once said, "other than to show what it's like to be a person - just like everybody else who's ever played music does."
Smith had recently spoken in interviews about his struggles with alcoholism. "When I lived in New York I was really a bad alcoholic for a few years," he told Under the Radar magazine in an interview published in June 2003.
