didn't he commit suicide?

and yes, i like elliot smith. if you haven't learned/heard happiness, its a good song. also, everything reminds me of her.

they proved that out of the question because forensics said there is no way he could break through his rib cage twice after having done it the first time...it would need to much force.

are you sure about that? I'm almost positive it is still ruled a suicide.

according to reports she wasn't in the room when he did it... she walked to to find him with a knife in him. Also, there was a suicide note in his handwriting.

Elliott attempted to kill himself numerous times and failed. He also talked about it all the time to many different people. The interesting thing is that he was totally clean when he died and his friends really thought he had turned around. He was working on the new album and was performing live again. Apparently he went off all his meds and stuff too quickly and since his emotional pain was no longer dulled, he was more prone to suicide. I hear that is pretty common with people recovering. He was one of the greatest songwriters of our generation and a really good musician, as he often played all the instuments on his albums.

yea, I believe he hadn't done drugs for a year when he killed himself
