This is an incredible song. It makes me so sincerely thankful for writers and musicians like those of Bright Eyes. This whole album just had a really strange yet intensely beautiful vibe to it. It's like falling in love.
Brilliant! Digital Ash is one of my fav. Bright Eyes albums. It takes me back to sitting out in the desert listening to this when resting from being on post. Good times! You have to love what life throws at you sometime
@burnz2188 Never thought about flipping the sides of the image after taping? Perhaps he isn´t that einsteingeniusly at all and only a very good musician and writer.
one of my favorite songs and amazing video one day i shall meet you and you will never know who i am or much less remember my face but will remember the moment for life funny how things work isn't it
I ponder his lyrics more than his handwriting.

He wrote it backwards or the video is simply flipped

he's left handed, its more natural for him to write backwards because its in a left to right motion.

So he wrote this all backwards? Conor Oberst just became 10 times more amazing.

how bad ass would it be if after the song ended, conor took the marker, threw it at the glass and it shattered everywhere?

@burnz2188 he's either writing backwards and left handed or they reversed the footage.

@burnz2188 or maybe he wrote it normally, then they just used a "flip" affect so it wouldn't be backwards...

I do the same thing with my arm a lot of the time. It hovers when I'm not paying attention. XD
I'm assuming you wrote with your right hand and the image was mirrored in post-production? Badass video. Thank you for being consistently original.
