Happy Birthday to me (Feb 10) I listen to this song every year at least once... I'm 25, still get depressed on my birthdays cuz of so many things i haven't done, so many things i've done wrong, so many places i haven't visit.. but hey at least i'm alive.. and can do whatever the hell i want
my bday is the 15th of feb. i have fifteen tattooed on the inside of my left wrist because i was born on the 15th at 5:15 pm and weighed 5 lbs 15 oz. i loveeee this song :)
Feb. 15th seems to be a pretty common day to give to birth judging by all these comments!, &I know several people who share this day of birth as well.
his songs are so sad and make me want to cry, but i love it so much. they're so beautiful and it makes me happy that there's still some hope for music in the midst of autotune and Top 40's. there will always be hope when there's people like Conor making music<3
My birthday ended 24 minutes ago. Thank fuck for that. 18, and I've never found the joy in these days. Still, legally allowed to get wasted, so that's a plus. Let's fuck it up boys, MAKE SOME NOISE!
@LargeOdalisque musta used up all my empathy on the like 500,000 devastated japanese tsunami victims but clearly your emo self pity is as important. nice language btw- maybe that's one of the reasons your bff gave you the roll. and as super clever as it is, your 'f8ck off' doesn't change the fact that ur an adult in a thread that's mostly teenagers, doing what they do. in ur 30s. which is, as stated, *sad*. your attempt at being bad ass is on the other hand hilarious. zomg, sooo intimidating.
this is the song that introduced me to bright eyes when i was about 11, i hated it, but i liked the sound . I downloaded whatever i could find by them and found myself in love, 8 years later and i am addicted. I just saw them in concert march 8th and can honestly say they are some of the most talented musicians i have ever had the pleasure of listening too.
i would have died long ago, if it were not for them.
I'm a leap year. turning 23 this year. and what am i doing? just the same like any other day. in my bedroom, infront of my computer & internet. and my facebook is not active of birthday greetings. (and i mean no birthday greetings)
I love how I can feel the pain and unhapiness in most of the comments to this song. And they are fucking true, at some little parts life is good, but mostly it's quite sad.
19 wasted years already.. I wish I could forget.. I'm supposed to be so freakin' "happy" right now but there are some things you just Can't fake.. Happy Birthday To Me. I hate Feb 22.
my birthday just ended, the first for years that I didn't spend alone, and I am happier than ever before. But I will never forget how much this song ment to me before all of this, and I will never let the desperate misery of this beautiful song escape me, because I think we build our strongest foundations upon our deepest wounds.
Today's my birthday, and this song describes how I feel spot on. So I downed a couple bottles of dramamine, plan to collapse and forget this wasted year.
Wow. My bday really sux. My ex girl friend that I still love and miss very much just blew me off to go be with her boyfriend. I've told her how much I still love her. I thought the least she could do was to say happy bday to me, expecialy after all I've done for her.
First heard this song in a tiny pub in Kings Cross in 2000, when the only album available in the UK was Fevers & Mirrors; spent the rest of the night drunkenly annoying various band members/ friends/ followers trying to work out where I could get it.
Took 2 yrs at least before it turned up on an EP, and it's not like like you can work out it's that that 'some things you can't fake' song from the title either. The days before internet, heh..
anyone know which album this is off? i have the noise room rarities album, but the version on that album is acoustic w/out percussion. anyone got an answer for me? oh, beautiful song, by the way. i'd expect nothing less from Bright Eyes.
Just as most other people posted, it is my birthday today and the girl I was in love with and trying to mend shit with told me she's not looking to go down that road again. Thank you Conor for being the one person not to let me down.
god, this song makes me spechless that this wonderfull man can bring so much emotion to me and i think "wow, he is now 30" and i become sad about everything for some reason and i guess i just want to say that i love you Conor, and your pure like gold and snow and Happy 30th Birthday and i truely hope that there are many more to come, and im sorry about your friend and i hope that you dont always think this way on your birthday because you are so appreciated by so many people, Happy Birthday
