So many good ones to choose from but one of my favourites is definitely "the moon is a light bulb breaking" from St. Ides Heaven.

"youre just somebody that i used to know"... It's so cutting and really pretty nasty, i love how he wrote songs as well. I miss him!! I hope he's kickin it with Mitch Hedberg and all happy now.

Yeah, I like to think of him as having some peace and happiness.
Good quote. He wrote honestly, that's for sure.

musically : would have to be ''don't you know that i love you'' [Angel in the snow]
on paper : ''This is the place you end up when you loose the chase where your dragged against your will from the basement on the hill'' [memory lane]
long live Elliott...

I have to agree that "A dying man in a living room" is just pure genius.
"Make me a present, make it something sweet, small enough to go unnoticed and big enough to compete." I like that line. But what song doesn't have great lines anyway? They're all soooo good.

"The potential you'd be that you'll never see"... because it actually sums up his life.. it's almost haunting.
