I remember listening to this song for the first time 5 years ago. I can really relate to almost every one of his songs. Except I never thought I was a post card or a record. :/ Oddly enough, I know what he means... happened to me too
check out my channel? im a 15 year old acoustic singer songwriter. I dont ask for you to subscribe or to like, i just ask for you to give me a chance and listen to some songs of mine?
Idk if this is the right picture for the song. I would have used something from the ground level of NYC. Maybe a shot of Bleecker St. would be more fitting. Just my 2 cents
I crave his sound every day, his music, a strange harminous balance death, art, love, beauty that makes you understand the strange things in life. The life that isn't so great , he tends to make it okay.
Why is it that every video says the singer is a different person, but they sound the same? I'm a fairly new fan of about six months, but whose voice is it that totally fucks my emotions?
Im usually not a very perverted person but every song by Conor Oberst from all of his bands it is like he is making love to my ears and it is quite satisfactory….extremly
i swear, bright eyes is like masturbation for my depression... it always makes me feel so low, and yet so hopeful at the same time.. i cant get enough of it.
@cantwbk You mean it makes you sing glory from your lowest? No, but really, I guess it's that understanding that sometimes being sad can actually be a really beautiful thing.
i first listend to one of their songs when i watched the movie LOL...i fell in love with their music...the lyrics and the tune is amazing...i really enjoy listen to all of their songs
bright eyes is just amazing it literally couldnt get any better. the fact that conor's an alchoholic only makes the music better because half of his best songs are about like hit the switch. "theres no right way or wrong when you just have to live!"
my brother would play this song to his son while he was in the hospital. he was a premature baby, and somehow the lyrics are perfect: ''you were born inside of a raindrop and i watched you falling to your death." unfortunately he did pass :(
Jason Boesel on drums. Haha. I knew there was a reason I've been listening to a lot of JB and Rilo Kiley lately. I've been exposed to his music for a longer time than I had previously thought.
@Swiftlygothedays Jason Boesel is one of my all time favorite drummers. And I have drummed for many many years now. He isn't flashy and his fills won't jump out and get you, but he knows how to support a song better than anyone I can name, and in this genre of music, that's what you need, it adds so much more when everyone in the group, not just the frontman, feels it
This wasn't the first song I heard by Bright Eyes. But this was probably the first song that made me fall in love with Bright Eyes. I was so innocent and small at that time. And so many things have changed. But this song always makes me feel that same way. I have good reason to think that I've listened to this song more than any other in this world.
i usually dont care about the pictures/videos people post with their songs but i love the picture you posted! It fits perfectly with the song and makes the overall feeling of it just better.
Anyone notice how the accompanying musicians to Oberst have names that sound astoundingly similar to one another? Just a weird little thing I noticed...
@EstherSeesStars This song is like salt to your emotions, wanna know why? Because it draws the tears outa ya no matter how hard you try to hold them back LOL that's how it got me .
he is talking about greenwich village in NYC. he says he gets lost when he leaves the village, so he couldn't come to meet someone in brooklyn (another borough of NYC). if that isn't tell-tale enough, he says somewhere "new york sky line"... anyway this is a great song, from a great album. gotta love it.

I second your opinion. His wavering voice sounds as if he were about to break down and cry. It's raw and unchecked emotion. I love Bright Eyes.
