Elliott smith
Mac Demarco
Him or Elliott for sure.
Jason seemed a bit more optimistic in his songwriting though
...
Jeff Buckley
Jason's lyrics hit me harder personally. Big Sewell Mt for example fucks me up like nothing else.
Phil Elverum
Mac Demarco isn't sad though
The answer is Jackson C Frank
Was he the first?
nick drake
lol
RIP
I miss this guy

Honestly, i agree, Elliott Smith is great but Jason hits more directly and it becomes more real.
Speaking of sad guy with guitar, Phil covering Jason, with all that has happened with his wife, makes me tear up
Living? Pic related. Of the last 25 years? Elliott. Of the last 50 years? Nick Drake.
You're welcome
Forgot the fucking pic. Lord kill my pain.
i fucking wish mac was sad
>Mark K.
>Jason M.
>the early astronauts that lived in Ohio that made them want to leave the planet all together
What is it about Ohio?
Mark is a weird cookie, first few albums are heartbreaking, than he toned it down with Songs for a Blue Guitar and Old Ramon, had some sad songs on GOTGH, but than he hit us with April, what a masterpiece of longing and emotion.
Elliot
Terrible weather, a lot of lonely countryside, a lot of crime in cities like Cleveland and Youngstown
Not to mentioned Oberlin has a great music university.
Ohio is terribly lonely, and very melancholic in nature.
My vote
I want to pick Dan. But he found happiness. BTW are asian girls the cure for depression?
So is Scotland, and they only make shit.
Well Arab Strap is pretty good, but you got me there, i have no idea.
I dunno, ask Rivers Cuomo, Trent Reznor, and John Lennon.
The correct answer is Stephen Merritt
Belle & Sebastian
James Clayton
>Sparklehorse
Mogwai?
Name three more
Stephin is a sad guy with a synthesizer
Elliot smith made pretty happy sounding music. I don't know how you could call either/or or roman candle sad
Primal Scream, Man at Work, Jesus and Mary Chain
:D
phil elverum
Men at Work*
also Cocteau Twins
>I don't know how you could call either/or or roman candle sad
Have you listened to them?
Aren't Men at Work aussie though
