Reading these comments about gossip girl, and the fact this song was featured on that show is, well to put simply a damn shame. Thank you and goodnight.
Pretty song and a sentiment I can relate to. That said, the lyricist is very sloppy as to rhymes. For instance, "terms" and "first" do not rhyme. For something this sad and deep, taking the extra time to craft the song into a professional piece would make a lot of sense and a much better song.
@stellagranos72 He's not bound to rhyme and stuff, just makes it rhyme a bit, so it's nice to listen to, but he just writes down what's in his head to get it more real for himself, I think. So he doesn't really care about obstacles like that.
Bright Eyes has definitely helped me find out who I am, and Conor Oberst's brilliant lyrics give me the best insight or advice when it comes to life... Simply the best.
me too. its weird lookin back how closely my path followed his, excluding the music obviously... but what he speaks about in the music. all i can say is that despite so many of the fans complaining about this last album being so different... :) nah, the way i've related to his music... this is the pinnacle. i got this album late but it was the relief i needed... i've been "there" too and almost lost it as well. so comforting to relate. but hes right.. its gota end eventually.

I cannot describe the happy feeling when I heard this on Gossip Girl, hahah I told my friend "It's Bright Eyes!!!" and she was like "Haha, yeaaah, sure is!"<3<3
@mooseandcorn whether they heard about bright eyes from a show, a movie, or a person, it doesn't matter. nor is it depressing. yes they forgot to thank bright eyes for actually making the music happen, but they are referring to the fact that gossip girl featuring this song on an episode is what brought them here. and evidently they like the music. so please let's all just grow the fuck up and stop arguing over who heard what first and where they heard it.
@mooseandcorn most? bright eyes had 250,000 or so likes on facebook before gossip girl.. i highly doubt that many watch gossip girl or w/e it is. so most do not know of conor from gossip girl ;)
One upon a time in the land of the Upper East, a beautiful girl fled from a beast. His closest friends began to retreat. While enemies marshaled to plan his defeat, across the river in lands far away, a mysterious young maiden was making her play. And with the beast finally vanquished, most tales they would end. With one happy princess. And an excited best friend. But in a land where the best castles come with a view of the park, it's important to remember.Where fairytales end, ours merely start
if reptillians were real, we'd get alot of subliminal messaging about them, i.e they would be the good guys in lots of films. We see some grays on tv now and then. But not reptilians. What we are getting alot of lately, is disaster films. Big, fat, blockbuster disaster films. Lets all hope the illuminati isnt really running hollywood and we're not being psyocologically prepared for nibiru =p
@marianmetei1 It's funny that you say that, seeing how a lot of this album is lyrically fairly influenced by reptilian theory, and most people who believe in reptilians believe that they are in league with the Freemasons. Ie: the snakelike eye above the pyramid on the dollar bill.
beautiful video, goes perfectly with the song...love this song so much. "Feel a strange day every now and then...Fall asleep reading science fiction. I want to fly in your silver ship..."
