  • Just come out with a whole album of ES covers. This and Twilight are just too good. Some of the best ES covers out there.

    When I discovered this gem off that heatmiser record, I played it on repeat for a full day. Poor Elliott, I hope he’s got some peace now.
  • Wow, this is great. Found you after your cover of Elliott's Twilight, so seeing this is great.

    Mikaela balanced faithfulness of the original with her own flourishes and changes. Quite impressive. She added some leading tones between bass notes which almost makes me wonder why Elliott didn’t do this with his original, but then again this was an early song. Now I can’t listen to this song without imagining those leading notes! Subtle thing but it shows she has a mind for composition.

    Girl if you are listening, you are absolutely one of a kind. If you ever did a St. Ides Heaven cover i think you could change the world. Thank you so much for these.
  • ES has been my favorite musician for few years but New Moon has been recently growing on me and I think Half Right is one of the best songs. Thanks for this.
  • @ChrisReale
    I more than like this, I too discovered your music back when I was searching Elliott Smith Twilight covers. Your voice, the production, the harp, it’s incredibly beautiful.

    I named my child after Elliott. To say that I am a fan is a tragic understatement. I have avoided many ES covers because I feel like no one could ever do justice to the original. I was wrong. Please do Between the Bars or Clementine or This Disaster, even the original Miss Misery, or almost anything.

    I would be so pleased so happy if you made a cover of pitseleh
  • Thanks for putting this song out there. Its always a bummer that your music doesnt get more views and credit. For what its worth this has helped me realize many things. I hope you do well in the future because your music deserves it.
  • What a great cover. Elliott is my favorite musician, and I love hearing these kinds of beautiful and faithful renditions of his songs.
  • ...endlich wieder etwas wirklich Anderes was mir erstaunlich bekannt vorkommt...wie als hätte ich es schon immer gehört!
  • @theoldpond0
    This is gorgeous. Kudos to you for finding these wonderful deep cuts in Elliott’s catalogue as opposed to just covering his hits.
  • @coolsounds99

    She is as friendly as she is pretty and talented. Met her last year in Germany while on vacation. She was doing a concert in Murg Germany. Wow to see her and her guitarist was wonderful.
