Xo giov

 The initial 15 seconds of the first track of the album are more than enough to instill in the listener the conviction that it’s worth giving up a few packs of cigarettes to save up for this little gem.

 Xo remains an excellent demonstration of how, based on old ideas, beautiful songs can be created, without advertising for phone companies or destroying hotel rooms.

 Listen to Elliott Smith's XO and explore a beautifully crafted retro album with timeless songwriting.

Everybody knows which way you go
Straight to over
No one wants to see you inside of me

Bled White (03:22)
I'm a color reporter (rose city on the 409)
But the city's been bled white (white city on the yellow line)
And the doctor orders (drinking 'til he's trashed is just a waste of time)

Elliott Smith

Elliott Smith (1969–2003) was an American singer-songwriter known for intimate, guitar-driven songs and a style often compared to Nick Drake. He gained wider attention after “Miss Misery,” written for Good Will Hunting, received an Academy Award nomination. His catalog spans lo-fi acoustic recordings and later, more elaborate arrangements; a major posthumous release is From a Basement on the Hill.
