Bright eyes - At the bottom of everything (Live Kilborn)

[TheYoungCrazedPeelin]

I can't understand some of the words Conor says at the beginning of the video, could someone tell me what he says?

[dpwukich]

how the hell did it take me this long to get into bright eyes?!

[jairo88]

@dpwukich be grateful you get into them

[fundipbluered1]

this is so fucking amazing

[Rosarioproductions1]

Best part of the song<3 - 2:53- 2:57 <3

[tamaravel]

I bought this album when I was fifteen in late 2005, it literally changed my life musically. It's still one of my favourite albums of all time. This was Bright Eyes at its peak, IMO. Anything from Casadaga onwards was a huge disappointment.

[AustinPerryMusic]

Why is he wearing makeup?

[thereadysetizurboss]

connor's pretty cute (:

[apegrape1000]

why did he say 666?

[downwithcheesecake]

i really wonder what he thinks about on a daily basis?

must be pretty freakin awesome..

[buriedunderwavs]

the druggie is a democrat...anything new in the world?

[buriedunderwavs]

@AtomVidKid nothing just that every band that has a drug based foundation more often than not either complains about Bush or Arnold Schwarzenegger in there songs. perfect example...Green day...please prove me wrong... its called the LIBERAL MEDIA...and its more corrupt than any policy Bush or Arnold ever put in place

[alexkman924]

@buriedunderwavs Why is less corrupt to express political views on a youtube thread than through music? Anyone is entitled to their opinions and even more so entitled to express them. Anything less is denying them their right to be a human being, which is why I won't criticize you for expressing yours, though I will respectfully disagree.

[KevinsMustache]

@buriedunderwavs lol it's funny cuz every goddamn stoner i know is a republican

[rockoutdudee]

so. good.

[RokBottom151]

I remember when i was 7 every night before i went to sleep my cousin would bring out his guitar and sing this to me. those were the days. Bright eyes rules

[DJMiilk]

M. Ward for president ^__^

[camberbirdie]

just saying. This is Bright Eyes. Not Conor Obert and the mystic valley band... yet. And the guitarist on the left is M Ward from... M Ward. hehe

[fluorescentmess]

the guitarist on the left is M. WARD from monsters of folk and she and him!

[RusselMuttly]

@fluorescentmess No its not

[stevieboy4]

if only he wasn't wearing eyeliner... Bright Eyes is still my favorite artist

[willyumtale]

this isnt bright eyes, this is coner oberst and the mystic valley band....just sayin

[EricCOREgee12]

damn connor looks fucked up haha

[EatingABombs]

May Folk never die!

[DJMiilk]

XD This is great. 

[joeisaflyingfish]

One of the best lyricists around at the moment.

[iNAYtheNachoGirl]

I love Bright Eyes because they sound just like they do in the studio when they play live.

[gingerkid16]

You know what would make this video better? if he got that massive cock out of his mouth.

[Colorfultoothbrushes]

Wow, he's amazing. And cute. Just sayin.

[ItsZebraMan]

Perfect Band :D

[BrightEyes10003]

M. WARD FOR PRESIDENT!

...BRIGHT EYES FOR CONGRESS!

[SexyLesPaul]

f@@@ politics

[SexyLesPaul]

F@@@ politics

[heyjude97]

1,2, 666...

[darksider7140]

@heyjude97 had never seen this, flipping conor!!! that's why he kicks ass!!! 1.2.666...

[StevenKellyBelly]

Because... Barack Obama & George WH Bush are the grandchild and great grandchild of AC, respectively is why he says that. Flee from the house of exchange.

[tonyisafuckingidiot]

M. Ward is playing guitar for him in this video. 0.o

[heyjude97]

@tonyisafuckingidiot hence the 'm.ward for president!!!'

[Fishilisation]

Haha, "1, 2, 6, 6, 6"

[Vasoslaihiala]

I just realized I'm gay and in love

[normanhate]

Absolutely genuine.. wow

[bbrandonorbust]

M Ward for president!!

[piffnationpiff]

new age dylan

[DookNun]

He's not clean now at all. My friends met him last year and he was wired out of his mind on acid! lol

[rslynch2]

I wonder how he remembers the words and the music being that messed up :)

[rslynch2]

1-2 666!

[AnniekeM]

In what year was this recorded?

[semperfidelis3100]

lol fascist agendas. fag. oh well great music.

[MassEffectRocks]

@semperfidelis3100 if you're a fan of george bush then you're a fucking dick

[semperfidelis3100]

@MassEffectRocks If you're a fan of Obama you're a heroine addict living off of welfare with 12 kids and no husband.

[xcyrclesx]

Mr. Oberst is my Jesus. I wish he was my best friend.

[PhantomWarlock]

M Ward for president!

[adollarwodbnice]

1, 2, 6, 6, 6..... I see what he did thereeee

[willable11]

is this guy on drugs? i know the refrences to them in like lua and everything else, but is he still?

[johnmorisi8]

@willable11

He's clean now. He was doing lots of drugs (coke) in 05 and some before then as well. Cassadaga i think he did some drugs, nothing hard though.

[rslynch2]

@willable11 I thought he got off the drugs during his Cassadaga period.

[apetherandom]

@willable11 I don't know if he's on drugs here, my friend used to smoke pot with him. So...eh. Maybe. I really have no clue. Either way, he writes great music.

[thepaynusbrothers]

1 2 6666

[mangotango08]

Wow Conor is fucked up.  haha you can see it in his eyes.

[shelbithefro]

@mangotango08 but isn't that why we all love him?

[migga2369]

beast solo

[DestinyOfPig]

What is it about Mr. Ward ?? I am german, don't know anything about him

[PunkRockFreak09]

Is he on drugs? I'm not trying to being rude, but look at his eyes.

[StateRadioFan29]

@PunkRockFreak09 he was then. hes clean now for his final tour with bright eyes

[PunkRockFreak09]

@StateRadioFan29 Okay, thanks for clarifying everything.

[Asianrox14]

@PunkRockFreak09 I see what you mean, but he also looks like he's thinking about the lyrics while he's singing them. Something I don't see many artists do.

[PunkRockFreak09]

@Asianrox14 Yeah that could be it too. I like this band alot and I just found them, their songs are much more meaningful than most modern artists.

[Fuck2010ism]

Yeah actually This has nothing to do with Monsters of Folk This is WAYYYYYYY before the thought of Monsters of Folk existed Yes it has M. Ward and Mike Mogis but they are tere because they are all really good friends. This was recorded when Craig Kilborn was still on tv like 6-7 years ago i hate fucking retards who know nothing about this get your facts straight.

[FarmersUnlimited]

this isnt bright eyes. this is monsters of folk covering a bright eyes song.

[ybrik222]

@FarmersUnlimited

Yeah, but it's almost the same band. :P

[ZiggyGray]

Obrest for president

[gg4465a]

M Ward for President indeed! I was so stoked to see him in this video -- so many visionaries in one place.

[mutineer350]

The new Bob Dylan...

[lalagirl135]

@mutineer350 deffinitly ;3 long live folk

[mrfudgeyhead]

He's handsome too?

Goddammit, how do I compete with this?

[piwini]

@mrfudgeyhead hahaha 

[bones12010]

[MysticGrant]

[leapordonmyright]

[ToxicKetchup22]

@leapordonmyright Wow............... just, wow.

[brizendizzlebizz]

@leapordonmyright You are such a douche bag. Respect good music, sorry it's not Pantera.

[yousuperpussy]

@leapordonmyright hahaha!!! you're a douchebag!!!

[ZwienerZ]

@leapordonmyright Haha every post on your page is talking shit about you...so you must be a loser.

[steven42010]

@leapordonmyright you have problems dude. you need to stop worrying about what other people are doing and saying, and start turning your meaningless existance into something positive.

[PayNoAttentiontoCaes]

@leapordonmyright Grow up.

[Monjan22]

I love the album version of this song... i mean the beginning the middle and the end are all just amazing... this versions awesome too but the album version blows me the fuck away.

[manifestdestiny17]

i miss bright eyes. i wish they were still together

[reddirt87]

@manifestdestiny17 man theyre recording a last album. theyre playin a few shows around texas nd shit, and theyre in the middle of makin a video for "the coyote song". come on man...wikipedia. look up the making of the coyote song video. prety good, but i think its farther along the way from cassadega than im wide awake...

[checkerboard96]

@manifestdestiny17 yeeeee anastasia. i feel like i should have seen them before my obsesion faded. I mean i still love them but it wouldnt be the same. I love conor!

[hyperballad22]

@manifestdestiny17 good thing they have a cd out in feb and a tour then

[blabhg]

dude they played their hearts out on this performance, purely awesome :)

[lykndamuzic]

haha, i think that's M.Ward playing backup...

[JoeandSteve12]

@mancheromanchero shut up bitch

[AshleyKaylene]

@JoeandSteve12

Hahahaha....i like your attitude. lol!

[scifiaudious2]

i wonder if he listened to the cure much...

[canabismanabis]

dank shit

[Amerzz789]

I'm so in love with him and his music. So in love.

[JoeandSteve12]

mandolin tabs any one got em?

[mancheromanchero]

@JoeandSteve12 Yah, here... *digs in pocket and reveals the finger* "FUCK YOU!"

[3whisperedwords]

Conor, I too, admire them for their biceps and creepy fascist agendas. I love the message, the kind everyone can swallow within this tasteful music.

[Masterofquarters]

haha. M. Ward for president.

[tikky2timer]

Best lyricist of his time, by FAR.

[dropanddrive2816]

Someones had a little too much Mary j

[kmoney100b]

@dropanddrive2816 Someones had a little too much fucking stupid.

[00fayy]

'for their biceps and their creepy fascist agendas'

hahahaha

[bruisesandcandy]

no no on the man-liner. <3 yas conors

[xchristyisbombx]

Can we stop arguing about politics and listen to Conor, k thanks,

[migasaguiar]

@xchristyisbombx don't be like the anarchist who doesn't dream... this is protest music...

[keeleywriteminor]

swoon.

[Fender7083]

His voice is so-so, but his lyrics are really good.

[pspence2]

this is conor oberst. how stupid do you have to be to be surprised that he's liberal?

[jam4me183]

@kloroxownz you need to do some research buddy, maybe even watch the news every once in a while?

[kmoney100b]

@jam4me183 you fucking idiot.

[kmoney100b]

@jam4me183 lemme finish, dont watch the news.

[jam4me183]

he says president bush and schwartzanegger were facists?

obama is down right socialist.

so thats ok with him?

[kloroxownz]

@jam4me183 you probably don't even know what socialism is. It's not so bad unless you're an ignorant fuck.

[haggspah]

@kloroxownz

I'd like to hear both of you define socialism. Fascism too, for that matter. Should be entertaining.

[kloroxownz]

@haggspah You want me to define socialism in a youtube comment? Socialism isn't something you can just "define". There's not enough space in a comment for me to even summarize it. @jam4me183 You're either some right wing faggot or a complete moron(can you be one without the other?), so I'm just going to disregard your stupidity.

[thesweenster85]

great musician, needs to lighten up on the politics. like most hardcore libs he's gonna stress himself into an ulser trying to find who's to blame for human nature.

[SeeingTheDarkNight]

he looks...sad

[Ultrahuntr]

[Monjan22]

[germasaurus]

Presidente M. Ward

[spaceman20killers]

ATTENTION BRIGHT EYES FANS:

I am a singer songwriter and many people have compared me to Conor Oberst - he is my favorite songwriter ever and his lyrics inspire me to write all of my songs.

If you are a fan of Conor Oberst's lyrics, please check out my songs - you might be surprised. My newest song "Here We Go Again" is the first video on my channel :) I also have a "Lua" cover.

[graymer1313]

1, 2, 6 6 6 6 haha

[manifestdestiny17]

@graymer1313 hahah i know!

[DancingChaos01]

I absolutely love this song

[MazzBzz]

[blkstation666]

Bravo!

[klarolivia]

I think that "I'm wide awake, it's morning" is his best album, of what I've heard :) And this song's just special :0)

[samanoske85]

if you havent heard cassadaga you should. its amazing.

[ImNotHere92]

I LOVE the look on Conor's face when he sings 'I'm happy just because'

Dunno why, but it makes me giggle - it's like he's a little kid sulking or something

[StripedxSocks]

Haha yeah you're right.

[izzac22]

god he is pretty!

[Harriet123P]

Greatest Bright Eyes song! Well...one of the greatest Bright Eyes songs. They're all so good but this one really hits me, particularly the last line. Conor rocks my world!
