Elliott Smith

I've been on an E.S. binge lately, and I don't think he's had his own thread yet.

IxFP?

Based on his demeanor and speech, I'd bet cash on INFP.

I miss his music. Yeah, I'm going to say INFP too.

INFP

His interviews are something - he's one of the most soft-spoken people I've ever seen.

A lot of people get typed as INFP here- but I think he's one of them INFPs.

Kurt Cobain... Jeff Buckley... Heath Ledger....

Watch out if you're a successful male INFP artist, I suppose.

God, he's so much like my good INFP friend.

Notice the similarity of speech/look to Seth Meyers, another person I think is most likely INFP.

How to separate the INFPs and ISFPs?
Superficially, they can seem similar- especially in the entertainment world.

Right, I was wondering the same thing. Prior to watching the video, I would have guessed Elliott as ISFP. After watching...eh, I don't know. His demeanor does remind me of an INFP I know. BUT I don't know what a shy male ISFP would be like, as I don't know any in person so have no way to make a good comparison.
