Interesting human commentary here. "Little Hitler sat in his giant's chair and dreamed of nowhere". Even arguably the most evil man in history was at one time just an innocent child. His experiences with others and the world made him who he was.
His discography is a beautiful tale of growth and revelation. It is a road map through the trials of enlightenment(bleh, wish I had a better word for that XP) like no other I've seen, one that can be felt and experienced rather than just heard or read.
He tried..(let's not shit ourselves) there is so much to talk about in all of conors lyrics and I suppose that's the mystery. I'm glad too he was able to pass those..I don't know what you can call em. I'm still going through..his lyrics? And I'm 22. It'll get better eventually
i'm actually glad for conor for overcoming his demons. he was so full of angst and sadness during his teenage years. Even though it made for a mass of amazing songs from Bright eyes, i'm glad he's over it. He probably would've ended up killing himself :( and that would've been a tragedy. now he continues with what he's got. i think it's great. But i'll always miss what Bright eyes was. Maybe some day another angst filled teenager will come along and blow our minds like Conor did.
conor is older now, he's not an emotional, angst filled teenager anymore, and to me that's what bright eyes was. So Bright eyes is dead, in a way, he can't bring it back if he tried. This just sounds like his solo work with the BE name slapped on it. This isn't bright eyes like i remember. He's still good as his solo bands though. Just not good like Bright Eyes was.
@somecallmejames looks like we really did go separate ways, chasing dreams and homes, a brand new place... like that song you widdled and worked all night, for me, but you just couldn't get it right, cause you just wouldn't tell a lie
@DRFTClub You're dumb, or at least.. You're pretending like you are... Why are you pretending like you're dumb? I wish I was stupid like you, not thinking always, just believe something and hold on to that. Not always that question why... It's fucking freaking me out but I don't wanna take drugs and alcohol and stuff. Why? I don't fucking know why!!!
close as i can tell its he's the singer from the little known band refried ice-cream. whats more interesting than who he is, is what he's talking about..or even what the record seems to be about.
this isn't too bad, I miss you though, it just hasnt been the same for a while... back when we first met in 02, what could I do but understand, these days, who knows... still, im happy to hear this familiar voice, it almost makes me want to draw, almost- whether or not you take a breath is your choice...

@VivaEmptiness420 don't we all wish to be that angsty teenager? Show him what he felt from him.

This is the worst album I've heard all year, and I'm a Bright Eyes fan. What shitty, shitty disappointment.

@PlaywrightLukeBolton Really? I completely disagree. I thought this album was brilliant but you're obviously entitled to your opinion.

close as i can tell he's the singer from the band re-fried ice-cream. what's more interesting than who he is, is what he's talking about, however.

When I first listened to this I was like, "yes! old Conor sound."
But when I listened to the lyrics, I realized that, though this might sound like the older Conor songs, he's grown as a person.
I consider Conor Oberst the next Bob Dylan.

Connor is one of the greatest song writers of all time, and by far THE BEST of our time.
