Conor Oberst - Cape Canaveral

[IronxMonkey123]

Such emotion...

[chrisnowickimusic]

im in love with this song. people should check out my cover of it and let me know how i did :)

[Tenmirel]

i find it impossible not to feel calm inside after listenig to to this video. putting aside the lyrics, his voice is just so, so very warm. makes you think the one singing is someone close to you. "you were a daugter to me", huh.

[MrBasicben]

fuckin awesome....

[K3VRAL]

That guy just mocked the greatest musician in the world...i hate people

[lowbattery34]

This guy is freaken emo. This sux. Go cut yourself you emo

[Takingbackcrap]

@lowbattery34 And you are probably an ignorant sociopath. We all have our flaws, just saying.

[jordieaton]

@lowbattery34 how old are you?? 12??

[lowbattery34]

@jordieaton Naw 12 year olds like emo music

[AlexSeizedTheDay]

bob fuckin dylan junior. all i gotta say

[natty71991]

weird... with that hair and glasses he reminds me too much of julian casablancas.. the guy from the strokes... and it's just because a friend is crazy about him -JC- but I don't like him and I hate that Conor reminds me of him.... weird :S

btw, I loved this song :)

[aperfectsonnet123]

Whenever I watch this video/hear this song. I get a sinking feeling.

But it's a good sinking feeling.

[YoseMiteEmery]

this is so raw... its beautiful

[aschimpf1]

my bro sounds so much like bright eyes stuff except hes younger, his youtube channel is here:

youtube.com/user/dreamsinpolar­oid



[Esencia1968]

geile sau

[dickkirkland]

When the MVB puts on their shades, you know they're about to do work!!!!

[norcalgirlforlife]

OMG!  I can't believe he played at my school!

[AllohaItsScott]

anyone else try to close advertisment at the start? lol

[mountainboi66]

he's the shit

[Crystalbug07]

@DejaDamascus fa sho. sunglasses indoors lol. love it.

[AllohaItsScott]

@Crystalbug07 he's probably got his eyes closed lol, thats why i wear them when i play anyway :P

[Crystalbug07]

@DejaDemascus fa sho. sunglasses indoors lol. love it.

[philipsmog]

this guys is awesome, I cannot keep up with his output and it's not exactly my style i go for more sardonic stuff lol but the solo album this song is from is just great i love all the songs.

[DejaDamascus]

drugs



[AllohaItsScott]

Gotta love Conor Oberst. I like how he keeps the beat by hitting the guitar :P

[raymartin10]

i presume you are all havin a laugh..the guy cant write a note. he's just putting a load of words together. anyone can do that. dylan's songs are full of soul and have a rich musical quality. This guy has no musical ability - its just stringing words together. no talent needed for that. the real talent comes from finding a killer tune to put the words to - dylan was a master of this. please stop devaluing the word "genius".

[AllohaItsScott]

@raymartin10 All I have to say to you good sir is..... "Don't like it don't watch, nevermind post comments JUST to annoy people on youtube. seriously."

[raymartin10]

@AllohaItsScott well please stop comparing him to dylan. he is nothing like him.

[AllohaItsScott]

@raymartin10 I invite you to look down the entire comments list. I never once mentioned it. Looks like you may also need to read before you post. sorry

[SubourbonHome]

@raymartin10 Bob Dylan, I agree was pretty awesome, but he sang about revolution while putting filler between his lyrics about politics and society. Get fucked and stopped humping Minnesota's finest.

[ThePunkFight]

he's god

[DaCircaSurvive]

Damn i cant stop listening to this song....

[thepunkstylaprincess]

dam! He's so hot and talented waaar <3

[Crystalbug07]

@minnesotastu fevers and mirrors

[Crystalbug07]

@raymartin10

"10" must be your age

when you get a little older, you'll understand what music is ...

and you'll feel so stupid for spending money on those Justin Beiber albums.

I'm impressed though that you are aware of bob dylan.

[nyzmikey]

Puts on an amazing live show.

[defilr]

It makes me so happy Taylor Hollingsworth making music with Conor.

[robertdiggs36]

Conor is better than Dylan. Dylan believed in God and went to shit in the end. Conor is smarter.

[ArtfulBlogger]

@robertdiggs36

Dylan and Oberst are both awesome. Dylan made about 2 bad records in his entire discography.

[budutahman]

you taught me victory is sweet even deep in the cheap seats

[zimmy2000]

Hell yeah he's the Dylan of today. Tricky song. Damn good.

[goshclare]

God, if I could make love to a song...

[minnesotastu]

I;ve heard this guy is amazing. Whats the best album to get as an intro into his stuff??

[MrHermitMyers]

@minnesotastu i really like his folky stuff. the self titled is awesome, wide awake is really good.

[cucumbersloth]

@minnesotastu I think you should buy I'm Wide Awake It's Morning, it's by his band bright eyes.

[raymartin10]

how anyone can like this is beyond me. please dont compare him to dylan. that should be made illegal. this music is tuneless - just stick to poetry or something. he shouldnt be allowed near a microphone.

[rabbitnosekid]

@raymartin10 that's what people said about dylan too, you fucking retard.

[1dogballs]

fucking magic absolute magic. if u dont like this then go fuck yourself

[LazzaraNancy]

He looks like Joseph Gordon Levitt in 500 days of summer

[KAtja89]

@LazzaraNancy he actually reminds me more of Ryan Eggold from 90210 in this video.

[ThyGuthix]

Dude Conor. One of the best songs i EVER heard.

Cant wait till i hear "The Peoples Key!"

[Bojl95]

Quote from Conor Oberst: (in response to people calling him the Dylan of today) "Well, I guess there are worse things you could be called."

[idioteque113]

he must have sold his soul to the devil for his talent. damn it, it's impossible to write such deep and profound lyrics.

[symba]

melody reminds me of an anie lennox song..save the world today....anyhow i llive in italy..and sadly he is non existent

[chris4267]

this song is auditory xanax

[jonwyllie]

Beautiful. Second most played song on my itunes behind Nick Cave's Breathless.

[weross95]

the difference between conor and dylan, is dylan had more worldly problems to sing about such as the Vietnam war and stuff, where as conor talks a lot about himself, but it works out because conor is able to actually make a song show the emotion hes feeling, you c an hear one of his songs and you can feel the depression hes feeling or the joy or w/e.

[Bojl95]

@weross95 do you even listen to his lyrics? half of Oberst's lyrics is about politics!

[bburn84]

Rolling bones rod shop video made me seek this video... Great sound bro!!

[drcroc2]

whatdya'll kiddin me!?

oberst > dylan

by far

[drcroc2]

@ronrutherford why'd you remove your comment

oh that's right, because it was irrelevant to mine, where I simply stated oberst > dylan

dylan sucks

[ronrutherford]

@drcroc2 I didn't remove it.

[vanitycase89]

I wish he was more popular over here :(

[basketcase5295]

Agreed. Dylan was a revolutionary and changed people's lives during the 60/70s. It was almost like a movement. Lyrically Conor is absolutely phenomenal. But he still isn't as known as Dylan and probably won't be. I love both.

[ereviking]

yes the dylan of today

[Bloodimonday]

I live in cape canaveral =)

[AlexAirwave182]

this is one of the few songs that I prefer live

[rlope001]

cause hes always drunk and cool

[emydiaz]

que hermosa voz................

[pestilentfrost]

he changed the lyrics some, not the same as the album version. great live tho

[AlyssaJaneVolta]

"I watched your face age backwards, changing shape in my memory" BEAUTIFUL. I can't find this song anywhere. To download that is.

[AlyssaJaneVolta]

GOD DAMN. I love this song! Everything he does never ceases to amaze me. I still like Bright Eyes more, but this is still incredible. And he is reallyyyy hot, just the way he looks and the way he sings and the way his mouth moves

[helloxlife]

Any way to get a copy of this recording!? I like it much better than the album version!

[borrachocansado]

you taught me fictorys sweet

even deep in the cheap seats

[kkhonea330]

His writes goooooood lyrics!

[CharleeeeLove]

my god. <3

[SmellsLikeLazySpirit]

So Dylan-esque...

He's so amazing....

[2012itbeggins]

ha is it just me or does he look like he's drunk or something.

[SwimForYourLife5]

his voice and the way he kind of presses the microphone forward with his mouth and moves around it is incredibly sexy.

[robbieemmm]

@SwimForYourLife5 you're annoying.

[SwimForYourLife5]

@robbieemmm and ur fucking retarded. now do everyone u no a favor and shut the f*ck up!!!!!!

[robbieemmm]

@SwimForYourLife5 that is a bold statement

[e10byagrue]

looks and behaves a bit like hunter s thompson..

[SeeingTheDarkNight]

What makes conor soo hot? ohyeah everything!!

[leighxcore11]

In addition: I love how the pace of this version is slower than on the album =) makes me happy.

[leighxcore11]

I think what everyone means by "the Dylan of today" is that he's just as superior of a songwriter. He doesn't sound anything like Dylan. Which is neither a good, or bad thing! He sounds like Conor which is something purely amazing. I love you Conor. No Lies, Just Love.

[mitchellson1988]

i see the comparison. when i tell old folks about listening to him, thats what i go to

[njaimmusic]

He is a great writer, but I disagree with the Dylan comparison.

[grayhaskins]

gosh, sooo amazing!

[conorlove1203]

Easy,lucky,free.

[94McLuViN94]

yeah as subterranean said, The Dylan of today ...

[1dogballs]

i love this  tune.his voice is great.fukn brill

[kidbright]

Conor oh!! Conor....one of the true greats of music.

[BurntByTheMoon44]

ha 2:21.

Man, I really like hearing him live. A lot bands/artists are bad live because they're so loud with all the different instruments. But this...it's so calm. And usually, so is the music at concerts.

3:53-3-58. I love how he really gets into it there.

[omgitsmegx]

Ok so he is the most incredible lyricist I've ever come across, his music has changed my life and he puts an amazing amount of emotion into his songs but, christ, does he look HOT in this video.

[Starsxboulevards]

@omgitsmegx ahah yess! He does look super hot in this video

& his voice makes him even hotter. It's overwhelming

[subterranean47]

The Dylan of today

[thtsritesun1212]

@subterranean47 he's crazy talented but i disagree with that statement... i can think of many more artists that better represent dylan

[subterranean47]

@thtsritesun1212 I agree with you that other artists play a much more "dylanesque" style but Bob Dylan was an artist in a constant phase of transformation. His body of work is so broad and Conor Oberst reminds me of that. The ever changing tambourine man.

[ritalate]

@subterranean47 Please stop parroting that shit and let him be his own person of today.

[subterranean47]

@ritalate Ah, one of those "comparisons are odious" parrots. All we have to base our opinions off is the past, so that's what Rolling Stone and I did.

[ritalate]

@subterranean47

1. Calling me a parrot doesn't actually mean I was copying anyone.

2. We base opinions off our emotional experience.

3. Your appeal to authority (Rolling Stone) doesn't make you right. It actually proves you're only copying someone else.

4. Your comment isn't an opinion. It's a title.

5. I like Conor and I like Dylan too. Can we let them be their own respective persons in their own eras?

[subterranean47]

@ritalate If you were suddenly hit with an emotion you had never experienced before you would compare it to previous emotions. All you or I know is past experience and how we currently feel.

Fuck Rolling Stone. I could care less about the mag and have never picked up an issue in my life.

I'm not putting anything on Dylan or Oberst. All I say is that their roles in society are similar

[gedengel]

@subterranean47

That is blasphemy!!!! You should be ashamed or change your religion! There can only be One Bob

[subterranean47]

@gedengel there can be more than one prophet

[eatthemoon13]

@gedengel I agree i love conners music..But he is no Dylan and never will be anything like dylan. Its pure blasphemy just kids who have never heard any kind of real folk music hear this and think they have found the bees knees.lol its true.

[YouGotSubbed]

Au contraire, he's the Dylan of tomorrow.

[MsSupenova]

@YouGotSubbed no, He is too good for that...

[LavaMonsterAMA]

@subterranean47 except.... better. Much more better, and totally different. ha. I hear more similarities in Ben Kweller's music to Dylan than I hear in Bright Eyes. Conor is more like the new Daniel Johnston. Without the breakdown.

[umbroog]

@subterranean47 The Oberst of today.

[cycleman88]

he is such a beautiful poet. he puts all his emotion into it! beautiful, just beautiful!

[Goodriddance848]

um... ok........ amazing lyrics, and instrumentation.. but work onyour voice!!! i am sorry!!!!

[smeeling]

i love his voice. it's very emotional and unique.

[Goodriddance848]

ok. i respect that! i agree that he puts a TON of emotion in it!

[StrongHeartSoldier]

its supposed to be like that! lmao if you dont like his voice, you might as well forget listening to him

[puppyslut22]

must have been a sunny day in studio.. or people are hung over...lol... loves it

[unicornpolo]

Its amazing how much emotion conor puts into it.

[DonnMills]

super awesome.. post them all... please!
