Looking at all the rows
All these records look like big zeros
Got your picture on the back of a forty-five
A placeholder till you take up mine
A placeholder till you take up mine
I'm the person you'll never need
The biggest loser on sixteenth street
The invisible man with the see-through mind
A placeholder till you take up mine
A placeholder till you take up mine
Break off of in someone's laughter
You can tell right there
He's still a square
He likes the way that you look now
Like an open book
Just like my favourite song
Some pretty words that didn't last that long
Like a package sent priority overnight
Placeholder come and take up mine
Placeholder come and take up mine
Placeholder come and take up mine
Placeholder come and take up mine
The lyrics PLACEHOLDER of ELLIOTT SMITH is also present in the album New moon (2007)
Elliott Smith, pseudonimo di Steven Paul Smith (1969-2003), è stato un cantautore e musicista statunitense noto per la sua musica introspettiva e malinconica. Nato a Omaha, Nebraska, Smith si trasferì in Oregon durante l'adolescenza, dove iniziò a suonare la chitarra e comporre canzoni. Nel 1994 pubblicò il suo album di debutto "Roman Candle", seguito da altri successi come "Either/Or" (1997) e "XO" (2000). La sua musica, caratterizzata da melodie delicate, arrangiamenti minimalisti e testi introspettivi che esploravano temi di depressione, solitudine e perdita, ha conquistato un seguito di appassionati in tutto il mondo. Smith è stato anche noto per le sue collaborazioni con altri artisti, tra cui The Decemberists e Beck. La sua tragica morte nel 2003 a causa di un'overdose di farmaci ha lasciato un vuoto nel panorama musicale indie americano. Tra i suoi brani più rappresentativi ricordiamo "Between the Bars", "Needle in the Hay" e "Waltz #2".
