I'm glad to see there hasn't been much pissing and moaning about this poor, rich, rockstar committing suicide. I'm almost as tired of hearing about Rock Star suicides as I am when a member of the Kennedy Family dies. |

There has been moaning here. And there SHOULD be! |

I meant in general, not just on here. There hasn't been the Kirt Cobain effect. And why cry about it? He obviously got what he wanted, we should be happy for him. |

Oh, that's such a controversial thing to say. Be careful not to offend anyone. |

i'm shook. gosh i'm so upset. you bastard. how dare you. is there nothing sacred. |

time for a best of album ... |

his upcoming one is a double album that is supposed to be his best work to date, a sort of stylistic summation of both his stripped down songwriting & recording and latter day orchestrated production. also it'll be released on an indie label instead of dreamworks. |

I was very sad when I found out. He was so talented. It's always sad when someone commits suicide, especially when they are "rich and famous" because everyone expects money and fame to bring you happiness, but apparently it doesn't always. I think drugs probably were involved and a lot of lost hope. Elliot Smith did get to live a life devoted to his craft which is admirable. |

People commit suicide everyday and we don't give a shit until it's someone famous who dies. There are tons of people out there that live horrible, hard lives and what they do is deal with it. They don't go kill themselves because it is too hard. Whatever happened to being greatful just for being alive? People who commit suicide get what they deserve and desire. I don't want to have to hear about it. I'll put my tears into someone who loved life and had it taken from them as opposed to someone who just took everything they have for granted and ended their own. |

he stabbed himself in the chest. i think his suicide is noteworthy if only for that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
I wonder if he'll see a sales spike in his albums? I'm not going to judge him, being famous aside. We don't know what was going on in his life. Money doesn't mean shit. And the knifing... wow, he's a better man than I. |

you don't get it dude. we're mourning the suicide of one person, not expressing our disdain or apathy for everyone else who commits suicide or even dies in a less shameful way. it's not black and white, we can feel bad about one person's death without not feeling bad about everyone else's. this is where i call you a moron or something for not only thinking this but having the misguided bravery (more like attention-seeking, shit-stirring gall) to say it. get a clue and get a life. |

most people who commit suicide arent in the frame of mind to realize such things you claim to be so easy do you realize that things who say may affect other people? someone on this board could have experianced a suicide, its not something to be flamed so blatantly |

yeah. my heart commited suicide in 2001. i miss it. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
fuckin arguments. all i ever reads is arguments! ho ho! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
what a pointless thread. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
my brother killed himself. he deserved it, because he wasn't greatful for being alive - I'll tell my mother that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That is very sad to hear. very sad. |
||||||||
|
|

Okay, I take it all back. I guess I know how it feels. I'm still broken up about Tchaikovsky committing suicide. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just shut the fuck up. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
god damn. stabbing yourself in the chest would take a lot of will and determination. |
||||||||

|
who is elliot smith? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well said |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Why did it have to be Elliot, why couldn't it have been Conor Oberst?!?! |
||||||||
|
|

don't know em don't care |

elliot's last show happened to be him and his guitar playing my college campus. I was there after it was over I said "gosh, I sure am worried about our friend elliott smith. he doesn't look happy!" yeah he was a rock star he had talent and now he's dead. let's laugh about it ha fucking ha |

By devoting a thread to his suicide you are adding to the hype. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you mean in addition to being a serious dick and an attention whore. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what I take offense to is the dumb, and I mean DUMB generalisations this ass is making about suicide. NEVER make crass judgements about something like this - there is a whole world (to be exact, a whole person) behind something like this. all this bullshit about being greatful for life, they deserve to die because they didn't love life - that's the fucking joke. how you can believe romantic crap like that is beyond me. |

qrter: marry me. I want to bear your children. brutal and morbid assumptions are mean and horrible. |
