Love this version he does with M. Ward, different to the original but just as amazing! I have a version from a KCRW radio show where M. Ward forgets the words as he does here!
Paul, thank you for posting this. I just recently became aware of Bright Eyes and just love this band. I'm sending off to Omaha for their DVDs. Thanks for sharing.
an artist should change themselves as much as possible as to not become static or a parody of themselves, so you should all embrace him for changing his songs
Who's that singing?

Wow.
That is horrible for me really.
They were on from like 8:30 to 9:30.
I was so disapointed.
And I don't know why it was so short.
