Bright Eyes - If Winter Ends

[simmlers]

fevers n mirrors album?



[wonderxlick]

could conor be the new elliott smith?

even his most depressing music just makes me want to fall in love.

[somethnvague]

so good

[kdkb3]

My favorite song.

[MrCodycasalini]

does anyone have tabs for the intro?

[melanieglenn]

I just can't think anymore about that or about her tonight

[TheIkisis]

I find myself sitting alone in a dark room drinking and singing along with just as much passion.

[GiuliaRm88]

conor is a genius...i can't stop listening to his songs

[brndurham]

this is the best song ever! conor helped me get over my depression..

[JediKnight988]

@brndurham if anything his songs make me feel more depressed. but I love Conor Oberst so not a big deal (:

[dragonis12345]

If anything, I think this song makes me want to live.

[killerkandi133]

if i cant learn how to make myself feel better how can i expext anyone else to give a shit

[VintageFunkadelic]

Beginning: freakin' out, freakin' out, FREAKING OUT!

0:41 - Okay, it's the Oberst guitar, it'll be okay.

[brandnewendnarb]

so yeah --- coyotesandwolves.bandcamp.com

[killerkandi133]

what album is this from?

[yayadenial]

@killerkandi133 it's from the album "Letting Off the Happiness"

[killerkandi133]

@yayadenial thankyou

[Frosstic]

bawling my eyes out, listening to this song.

i want my perfect spring.

[melanieglenn]

TO MY PARENTS. Drugs aren't making me hate my life. The fact that you're now drug testing me is.

[gnomeater]

@melanieglenn

drugs won't do anything but ruin your life. trust me. please trust me.

[melanieglenn]

@gnomeater That's a lot of trust.

[heliot58]

I love how he ties in the going through a breakup with the cold, dreary, endless northern winters you have to live through to appreciate how miserable they can be

[ColorMeHoppy]

Because if I can't learn to make myself feel better

Then how can I expect anyone else to give a shit?

[mmmaaadddyyy5]

@iJohnConnor Hey, we care about you. It'd be great if you'd hang around, yeah?

[IsConvenient]

503 people dont have friends.

[yazy2210]

Conor Oberst is the most brilliant mind of our generation. Agreed?

[heliot58]

@yazy2210 Well, i'm kinda old to be a part of Conor's generation, but i will say this: I have see many singer/songwriter/artist's come and go over the years and believe me, Conor Oberst's music and lyrics make most of them seem hopelessly obsolete. His songs are pure genius.

[iJohnConnor]

i just wanna die.

[unleashedanarchy]

@iJohnConnor No. You don't. You want to listen to Bright Eyes or smoke weed or find a girl or go to disneyland or hike up into the hills or compose a poem, an honest verse of longing, a simple song of hope. Anything but die.

[BorgKing001]

@iJohnConnor go for it

[dRevan64]

@iJohnConnor K. Go do that.

[thisfallowstate]

@iJohnConnor Don't you dare. Find a fever to cure your cold winter-set heart.

[XxTheWeekendWarsxX]

@iJohnConnor Death isnt worth the pain, the effort and the let downs, music is my way out - try it..

[momakesgoodmeatloaf]

ur hottt

[lolamae144]

fucking beeeaauuuutiful

[Guru]

this is by far my favorite. it means a lot to me.

[fruitbats52]

:D

[ichigo2261]

@fruitbats52

noooo <3

[dayawakesupexhausted]

i wish i had more friends that are into bright eyes as much as i am, that way i could drink with them and sing to all his music. when i first heard this song (like all of them) i absolutely loved it!! each song is so unique and beautiful, i love the way he writes and how he uses analogies and his simalies, how he contrasts and compares. im sure he would be a great book writer

[BeatDemon08]

The perfect breakup song. Thankfully i don't relate to this song.. Yet..?? Well i have this song to listen in the case she does break it off and snap it in half and the squeeze it in her hands so it turns into millions of pieces so its incapable of fixing.... This songs might be waiting for everyone. Fuck thats depressing. lets make the most of this moment whatever it may be

[CRedIndie]

these are one of my most favorite lyrics in the world

[oliverws14]

i wanna bang the shit out of him



[SseBb]

And so I drink to stay warm

And to kill selected memories

'cause I just can't think anymore about that

Or about her tonight



[zomgitsprincess]

my favorite song, by my favorite artist. ahh, perfection, your name is conor oberst <3

[PreciousRobot]

Pretty much perfect.

[augustineeeee]

you're music is probably the only thing keeping me going. thanks conner.



[curtainofstars]

@augustineeeee You and me both

[TenClutch]

dear conor, you make the worst parts of life feel so beautiful, love jake

[k386]

This song. Oh man, this song. This first time I heard it I wrote 8 songs screaming my lungs out, trying to express what this song does in such and understated way. Then I spent the next 8 years trying to remember/replicate that moment. First Bright Eyes moment, sticks with you.

[glassesandtv]

i feel like this song doesnt get enough recognition. it's def one of my favorites.

[KillingJoke94]

Bright Eyes make me ever cry <3

[EliZevin]

[EliZevin]

[RjwBrandNew]

[shipa71890]

"if i cant make myself feel better, how can i expect anyone else to give a shit?" i love that part...

[kyleschlebach]

[eskate95]

This song saved my life. It gave me something to relate to when I needed it most. Thank you Conor.

[AgentP0wer]

[nightintheruts617]

i would so plow myself in his soundhole

[anniefaiella]

This is the only song getting me through my day.

[VictoriaaNone]

Sing it, Connor. Damn it.

[2035clay]

So much teenage angst... but also what I have felt and continue to feel. Good stuff Bright Eyes.

[dpelsnik]

Ok we feel this way all of the time, and it's like he puts EXACTLY what he thinks into his songs. He doesn't even change the words around. Some how it sounds amazing. I don't get it, but he has a song for every emotion. Amazing-amazing.

[TheImagine159]

conner oberst <3 some people don't like his voice, if only they'd listen to the lyrics.

His songs are so relatable, the make me feel so serene

[joker2x]

someone needs to smack this kid and toughen him up lol.

[blackblackgrey]

For my GCSE drama piece about a year ago me and 4 other people did a piece on mental illness, and we each chose one misunderstood mental condition like schitzophrenia or Bipolar disorder and tried to show what its really like. I did depression, and devised a true story with most of the dialog being quotes from real people, and at the end of the story I just played the entirty of this song and stood on my own in the middle of the stage.

I could have just played this song and been done with it.

[Agustafson22]

If I had friends we'd get drunk and listen to bright eyes all night

[mrtrippy421]

@Agustafson22 u just made 20 friends (: ha

but i know that that's impossible

and so i drink to stay warm

and to kill selected memories"

favorite part.

[geesusftw]

children laughing is from POD - youth of the nation xD

[comradehess]

@geesusftw interesting theory, except youth of a nation was released a few years after this album came out.

[donbriggs00]

This guy needs some assertiveness training. He is afraid of the world.

[GregThaVeg]

i'm considering making video's of bright eyes covers;

would anyone be interested?

[ShiraIsAParasite]

@GregThaVeg depends where you live and ting

[GregThaVeg]

@ShiraIsAParasite why would it depend on where i live if it's gunna be youtube? but okay...

[BlackOhioSky]

The lyrics to this are amazingly good, even better than his usual standard.

[leelee760]

fuck this song is just so real.

[yourlipsarerubyred]

this song is the anthem for every lost kid...to me, nothing sounds better...nothing feels better than this song.

[Johnlee137]

Its not the quality of the recording that matters its the content of the song

[SummertimeHigh]

I wanna cry. No im not sad, but music can always change emotion.. and This song pours my emotion's on a table and builds back up leaving pieces missing. Soo much emotion in one song, Soo much emotion given to one person.

[iiixiayyy]

no winter in florida!

[mcmooglet]

@iiixiayyy cool story bro

[TetraPack]

@traehbreakrsend

msg me :'/

[hawknelsonisthebest]

[Iamthedoorwaymusic]

this sounds like it was recorded on garageband with the built in mac microphone.

[14razorbacks]

@Iamthedoorwaymusic hey, i do that all the time! :p admittedly i'm not an internationally successful recording artist...

[Iamthedoorwaymusic]

@14razorbacks haha i do too. if you search my band, I Am The Doorway, on facebook, you can hear a cover of day dream believer that i did on a mac with the microphone. i've gotten pretty good quality out of it, and it doesn't sound much worse that this song haha

[postnihilist]

but I swear I will follow anything, just get me out of here...

[GodMikaboshi]

My Winter won't end.

[billybush132]

[SuperChawhee]

[RuidoAnticapitalista]

Such an amazing song, it's helped me get through some tough times .

[pleasemallorie]

Seasonal Affective Disorder....

[helloimvanessa]

"Just lie to me and say it's gonna be alright."

[electriclimits]

'i fell for the promise of a life with a purpose'. i like that one.

[makailasmix]

conor oberst is a cutie pie

[RelientFaith]

i love this song (: He writes such amazing lyrics

[silkedenise]

I heard the song's about heroine.. would be a different view

[GodBeeGoodHoney]

This song kind of makes me ache, but I love it, and Bright Eyes, and everybody :|

[TheLumberjackHero]

Excellent song, but, why did he (or the music engineers) put on that vacuum cleaner sound in the beginning? It's kind of annoying...just saying. =| Otherwise, one of my favorites.

[xtcottonballx]

so connor oberst gives the same feeling as being on ectasy? im sorry his voice just doesnt affect me the same way as most of you..its kind of nasaly and annoying

[taylorbolser]

This song is amazing, and all of you guys are amazing.

[drgonzito613]

i gotta piss. fuck!

[Sitkaly]

I've never felt more in love than when I'm listening to Conor Oberst. &Secretly I'm terrified I will never feel this way about anyone or anything else.. ever. :x

[warmandsunnydays]

God, it's like Conor lives inside my head and says the things I don't know how to put into words.

[mrsbluemushrooms]

and i screammmm for the sunlighttttt!!! love it

[ArockPx2]

Connor Oberst is awesome.

You guys are all awesome.

[Vaginalcommunism]

The most amazing thing about this, is that Conor probably wrote this when he was sixteen or seventeen.

He's got one hell of a brain for a sixteen year old.

I wish I could live inside his head, it must be beautiful there.

[wtfstephanielmao]

"But I fell for the promise of a life with a purpose,

but I know that that's impossible now.

And so I drink to stay warm,

and to kill selected memories,

cause I just can’t think anymore about that or about her tonight."

Fucking, ugh; <3

[stateradio15]

I love all of you.

[iThinkk]

i have to meet him... the lyrics in the song just describe my thoughts right now. i love him.

[xp4r4n014x]

i dreamt of a fever, one that would cure me of this cold, winter set heart.

[MPathos12]

agreed defiantly a fav

[manifestdestiny17]

conor oberst speaks my feelings more than any human being

[mmmaaadddyyy5]
