Bright Eyes - One Foot In Front Of The Other

[sowhatjmh]

also called, "landlocked blues," if no one knew that.

[mikybee93]

@sowhatjmh This is an early version of it, released on "Saddle Creek 50", it was redone on a newer album and renamed Landlocked Blues.

Pretty much the same song tho.

[thecerp1ntaxt]

I like this song better without Emmy Lou but hey that's just me

[XTheConfuserX]

Anyone else just like...cant help but smile when you look at his face?

[11Jurriaan]

Leuk is geen echt goede beschrijving van dit filmpje. Maar ik heb er toch op geklikt.

[92AlleyKat]

its beautifully sad :' )

[Emericanization]

Damphear2: If you are talking about Conor you shall be put to death by firing squad.

This version of the song is called 'One Foot In Front Of The Other' because Emmylou Harris is not featured in it. This is the single.

[damphear2]

"i learned how to play a couple chords and now im a star."

what a fucking faggot this prick is

[GoodFrances23]

i like the lyrics

[Talonplz]

How is this not Landlocked Blues?

[mcr4life112]

@Talonplz Land Locked Blues is the album version's name

[asterilehate]

I love his Primal Scream shirt!!!

[fuckyeah816]

i love bright eyes dude

[Ballmusk]

why do all the lead singers of bands like these always sound like they're crying?

[angelicmiko]

'Cause their song is sad.

[mariolopez420]

the original version of this song is soooo much better than landlocked blues

[hiddencat8]

@mariolopez420 I agree- I love this version.

[brianne13910]

wow why is this so hard to find!!??:(

[miaoli358]

YAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

Finally I found this song \^o^/

Some fucking person said this is

"If You Walk Away I'll Walk Away"......

[TayBay016]

i love the part where he says "i feel more like a stranger each time i come home."

its so relatable...

[tyrannized]

he looks like he is going to throw up at the begining

[omgitsmegx]

This song is called Landlocked Blues.

I love Conor so much.

[brighten3]

oh gosh.

i love him alittle.

[AdobeCSTutorials]

Conor must've been high as fuck.

[Spiritzground]

I especially love the line "If your still free start running away"

[darksider7140]

@Spiritzground cuz they're coming for you!!!

[brighten3]

seeing him is like seeing a unicorn

[Floydthefuckbag]

you can pay like 20 bucks to see a unicorn once a year? sweet!

[CompleteRandomly]

depends on how gullible you are (and unicorns ARE real, by the way, don't ever doubt it)

[dontworryaboutit101]

@brighten3 hahaha fuckin awesome

[LoveLoveStrong]

@brighten3 Where you just stop and stare... just stare....

[glenmann62]

what drugs is he on?

[mistersamza]

this is true. I love new found mass. Which ever version is on Eudora is beautiful. like i said before, the Im Wide Awake version is great but i definitely prefer saddle creek sampler version

[gooseCha]

He is soooo drunk lol, its funny how in almost every video he is under some sort of substance. A guy who really means what he sings. not much like him in our watered down society; with no heart, motivation, and honesty. Always trying to hide our troubles with fake smiles and shallow greetings. Be real, not just with others but yourself.

[iTubeQQQQQ]

what makes you say he's drunk?

[gooseCha]

you cant tell? when i went to see him in AZ this weekend he said he gets drunk before he sings to get the butterflies out and to relax. and he was drinking that day. all the band members had beer on stage.

[iTubeQQQQQ]

oh

well, fine with me.

i just couldn't have told otherwise.

he kinda looks like he's waiting for something at the beginning.

[antisthenex]

Woah. I had no idea this song was that old. This is over a year and half before I'm Wide Awake It's Morning was released.

[ConcealMyPoison]

i feel more like a stranger each time i come home.

[valeriaconasma]

this is landocked blues, not oe foot in front of the other

[steph8699]

land locked blues is another version of this song, some girl sings on land locked blues.

[valeriaconasma]

ohhhh

[mistersamza]

emmylou harris, well known folk singer. i like this version better personally.

[sillysully93]

haha i forgot about doing that

[sillysully93]

LOLOL

wanker

[TheScientist213]

Hey now no need to insult others just to boost your self esteem.

[craz3d]

Actually, we don't really know this loser, so he probably does need it.

[immmmmmmmmbins]

does anyone know what his shirt says?

[pgblues]

the first two words are 'primal scream' without the vowels, but the rest I can't make out

[tuzian]

primal scream... something.....

[Emericanization]

it says prml scrm soviet society.

i know that prml scrm is a british band, im guessing soviet society must be the album name

[asterilehate]

@Emericanization its Primal Scream Subvert Normality not soviet society lawlz

[sillysully93]

Love it

[doeden8]

This video is so mesmerizing. It's amazing to see as a fan how well he has progressed; Although this isn't his first time performing, he seems scared. Oberst is definitely a one of a kind artist - I really wish he doesn't become too exploited... it's probably too late to say so now, however.

[somenlitenfisk]

scared... i think he's just really drunk and like haha taking a trip with the fairies. that's what it looks like to me anyway :D

w/e, he's still a genius.

[happyhappy85]

It's more of a figure of speech

[WaldoGrapelliOHare]

poor you.

[rasberiez]

theres kids playing in guns in the street

and one points his tree branch at me

so i held my hands up

i said enough is enough

if you walk away i'll walk away

& he shot me dead.

[johnguay]

hes so sloshed

[meagan5d]

wow I completely zoned out and was mesmerized by this

It's so beautiful

I wish conor oberst could come sing me to sleep every night

[laaadddy]

beautiful song.

He looks so shy in rge beginning.

Amazing.

[Gipsyfly]

i love this song so much.. so addictive.

[altercations]

one foot in front of the other is actually the faster older version of landlocked blues, all the songs off of im wide awake are old as shit except for a few

[Emericanization]

ok.

'One foot in front of the other' is the single version of the song.

while 'Landlocked Blues' is the duet with 'EmmyLou Harris'

[lazlopanoflex]

I was at this show, so long ago at a club in Dallas that no longer exists. I love this song

[diamantwhite]

ahh. i love it how out of it he looks at the start

[RaChEzOiD]

conor oberst is my all time favorite musician... i love him with every ounce of my heavy heart... i was fortunate enough to see bright eyes in chicago about a month ago and wish i could go back there every single day... the concert literally took my breath away

[Sinatrixx]

Trees in Dallas is now dead. No more Trees at all.

[rfin]

One foot in front of the other is the instrumental version of Landlocked Blues.

[spoonstalk2me]

The album version is landlocked blues that has a girl, another is just him singing named One foot in front of the other on the internet.

[hotgluecornflakes]

Isn't this song called "Landlocked Blues"? It's not One Foot in Front of the Other.

[nherelle]

this is my fav song on album..i love it ...bright eyes rule!!!

[chokesoncock]

bright eyes is life

[cornflakegirl1977]

Conor, who was 23 when this was filmed (26 now), added in Emmylou Harris,(which he did to 3 other songs on that album) THEN got "Landlocked Blues". Yes, See him live. This is at Trees in Dallas. I saw him there when he was 17 or 18 and had no idea who he was. My friends still in Dallas say he plays Trees about once a year. So, if you are in Dallas, read the Observer.

[7774984]

i want to see him live before i die...

[emichaelnd]

conor is 26 as far as i know

[loversecks]

isnt he like 35 or 36?

[agrlnamedgoo]

He's only 26..

[greenknee]

He looks really young!

[Fletcherx]

Bright Eyes are good, i've always liked him. One the best things about connor is that his live performances sound really good.

[adamtwaah]

Yeah you're all fucking gay, no-one cares how many Bright Eyes albums you own/how much you ass rape Conor, listen and appreciate.

[ZimPelvis]

exactly

[adonismateos]

shut the fuck up.. all of u have no lives

[lilbubbleyum25]

no, if you weren't just some new follow the crowd fan you would know that it's called one foot in front of the other but when he put it on the new album with emmylou harris, he changed the name

[Jasonian]

werd

[onesemesterleft]

this song is called Land Locked Blues.

[mistersamza]

jesus kid actually look up stuff before you say retarded shit. called One Foot in front of the Other, released on the Saddle Creek Sampler Cd. He changed the name for the new cd.

[onesemesterleft]

forgive me, i only have 6 albums and a few singles... 

[mistersamza]

forgiven..

[GeorgeGilbert]

It used to be One Foot in front of the other stupid!

Why would this person make that up? lol

[ZimPelvis]

No

i forgot what song it is but its not landlock blues

[karinakarinakarina]

he's my boyfriend.

[cornflakegirl1977]

Something intelligent,please!! Do you not listen to his songs? Try "Take it Easy(Love Nothing)". He would not be a good boyfriend, nor does he want to be one.

[karinakarinakarina]

Clearly I listen to his music, otherwise how would I come across this video/song?

What kind of intelligent answer do you want? I could go to his website and just copy and paste his entire biography and act so suave. but unlike you lame ppl I dont feel the need to impress ppl on youtube with my knowledge of bands.

ps- he's my boyfriend.!

[cornflakegirl1977]

KarinaKarina (great to know you love Russian Lit., but you are one Karina too many),my dear girl;are you too sad to give a fuck? For that, you have my true empathy. It's wonderful to know that one of my favorite singers selects girls with such an interest in great literature, not one of these ridiculous, insulting teenagers who obsess with him. I feel much better now, knowing that he is your boyfriend and values intellect as much as I always kind of guessed he did.

[heyyoubitme]

woah. seriously. lets calm down now. its just a song.

[mintcargurl21]

awesome i love his music
