***STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS BUT CLOSE TO DONE***
This page is an attempt to basically list all versions of songs that have been/can be heard by fans. This page could not exist without the help of Charlie from Sweet Adeline, Janice Ordal and her old Elliott page, the Alphabet Town website, Mango Nebula (The Moon is a Sickle Cell), Larry Crane, True, Hyun, Diego, and others who have helped.
This listing of Elliott songs does include:
1. All officially released songs and versions from Elliott Smith solo, Heatmiser, Stranger Than Fiction, A Murder of Crows and Harum Scarum, whether they have been heard by most fans or not and also whether Elliott wrote the song or not (therefore, unheard pre-Heatmiser songs are listed, Heatmiser songs by Neil Gust are listed, etc.).
2. All songs performed on tv and radio performances (I got most of them listed I think but may be missing some so let me know).
3. All live performances from shows/concerts but only if there is an audio or a video recording of that performance.
4. Titles of songs that only exist in the hands of fans as leaked studio versions/demos (such as Abused, Burned Out Still Glowing, Grand Mal, etc.) See note below regarding these.
5. The songs from the Devo tribute show where Elliott played guitar.
6. The songs from the 2003 Kinks tribute set at the Derby (Elliott sang two songs and played instruments only on two songs).
*****PLEASE NOTE*****
My plan was to list all the leaked studio versions for every song (for both completely unreleased songs like Abused and also alternate, leaked versions for released songs like Angeles, etc.). But that got a bit overwhelming for me to keep track of and list all those. Much information regarding these unreleased versions and their recording sessions on are on the Alphabet Town website so I've put a link to Alphabet Town under the title of most of the otherwise unreleased songs. Alphabet Town also has sessions/unreleased version info on typical songs (Angeles, Between the Bars, etc.) so check those sections out on that site too. But I didn't specifically put a link to Alphabet Town for each of those typical, well-known songs here. As of this writing, that site is down but I've heard it is supposed to come back at some point. Most of the information on that site can still be found by using the Wayback Machine on archive.org. (I basically didn't want to just steal the info from that site so I'm referring you to it instead).
The listing of Elliott songs on this site does NOT include:
1. Rumored songs or songs known to exist but generally haven't been heard by fans (for example, Hey Jude).
2. Songs by other artists that Elliott guested on or played some part but wouldn't be considered his song (for example, if he played guitar or sang on or produced a song by another artist).
3. Songs listed on set lists or reported to have been played at shows if they don't have an actual video or audio recording since this listing is meant to be all versions that fans have typically heard or can find to listen to (although I made a few exceptions to this rule).
*****PLEASE NOTE*****
There are many gray areas in my criteria above and I may not have been consistent with what I included or didn't include. Please let me know of any suggestions you have or if some of my info doesn't make sense.
If you have a live show that's not listed here or something else (pre-Heatmiser songs, unheard studio songs, etc.) that's actually in your possession and you can share it with us, please email me at [email protected]. Or message me on Instagram at elliottsmithdiscography.

Live Versions
7-23-99 at Largo in Los Angeles, CA
A previously unheard live show was uploaded to YouTube in 2024. It was from Largo and apparently Elliott, Jon Brion, and Grant Lee Phillips played together. It's a very chaotic recording and hard to tell who is doing what on each song. But presumably Elliott was involved in each song, at least doing some backup vocals or playing an instrument. This was one of the songs that was played.

7-23-99 at Largo in Los Angeles, CA
A previously unheard live show was uploaded to YouTube in 2024. It was from Largo and apparently Elliott, Jon Brion, and Grant Lee Phillips played together. It's a very chaotic recording and hard to tell who is doing what on each song. But presumably Elliott was involved in each song, at least doing some backup vocals or playing an instrument. This was one of the songs that was played.

7-23-99 at Largo in Los Angeles, CA
A previously unheard live show was uploaded to YouTube in 2024. It was from Largo and apparently Elliott, Jon Brion, and Grant Lee Phillips played together. It's a very chaotic recording and hard to tell who is doing what on each song. But presumably Elliott was involved in each song, at least doing some backup vocals or playing an instrument. This was one of the songs that was played.

A previously unheard live show was uploaded to YouTube in 2024. It was from Largo and apparently Elliott, Jon Brion, and Grant Lee Phillips played together. It's a very chaotic recording and hard to tell who is doing what on each song. But presumably Elliott was involved in each song, at least doing some backup vocals or playing an instrument. This was one of the songs that was played.

A previously unheard live show was uploaded to YouTube in 2024. It was from Largo and apparently Elliott, Jon Brion, and Grant Lee Phillips played together. It's a very chaotic recording and hard to tell who is doing what on each song. But presumably Elliott was involved in each song, at least doing some backup vocals or playing an instrument. This was one of the songs that was played.

7-23-99 at Largo in Los Angeles, CA
A previously unheard Largo show was put on YouTube in 2024. Most of the show was Elliott, Jon Brion, and Grant Lee Phillips playing cover songs. However, Elliott also played Everything Means Nothing to Me and this song. This song is thought to be an original Elliott song but I am not 100% sure as of this writing. The title is also not necessarily an official title, just the title the song was given by either the YouTube uploader or the original taper.

A previously unheard live show was uploaded to YouTube in 2024. It was from Largo and apparently Elliott, Jon Brion, and Grant Lee Phillips played together. It's a very chaotic recording and hard to tell who is doing what on each song. But presumably Elliott was involved in each song, at least doing some backup vocals or playing an instrument. This was one of the songs that was played.

7-23-99 at Largo in Los Angeles, CA
A previously unheard live show was uploaded to YouTube in 2024. It was from Largo and apparently Elliott, Jon Brion, and Grant Lee Phillips played together. It's a very chaotic recording and hard to tell who is doing what on each song. But presumably Elliott was involved in each song, at least doing some backup vocals or playing an instrument. This was one of the songs that was played.

Live Versions
7-23-99 at Largo in Los Angeles, CA
A previously unheard live show was uploaded to YouTube in 2024. It was from Largo and apparently Elliott, Jon Brion, and Grant Lee Phillips played together. It's a very chaotic recording and hard to tell who is doing what on each song. But presumably Elliott was involved in each song, at least doing some backup vocals or playing an instrument. This was one of the songs that was played.

Someone Saved My Life Tonight (Elton John cover)
Live Versions
7-23-99 at Largo in Los Angeles, CA
A previously unheard live show was uploaded to YouTube in 2024. It was from Largo and apparently Elliott, Jon Brion, and Grant Lee Phillips played together. It's a very chaotic recording and hard to tell who is doing what on each song. But presumably Elliott was involved in each song, at least doing some backup vocals or playing an instrument. This was one of the songs that was played.

This was one of the songs that was played.
