Cleanse Song- Bright Eyes

[NancyBoyProductions]

I'm pretty sure these aren't "random pics set to bright eyes". They match exactly what he's saying which is irritating because you really can't take bright eyes songs literal...

[dancingbearwithsiles]

i thought this was a good one :)

[oManelJoao]

Video sucks. The song is amazing!

[MNskating]

i like how the life death picture uses an infinity sign as the portal, shows how its a never ending process...

[wsr885r]

Yea, was wondering name/ artist of the image at 2:02..any help would be appreciated. fantastic tune might i add

[tazbaldwin]

i thought any bright eyes fan would have been smarter than this. you have no idea what he wrote about, just included genericmeanings of the singular words in the song. Look past the dictionary and see a metaphor. thanks for the effort though, more than I ever did.

[ArcadianStars]

@tazbaldwin he wrote it on his detox from drugs..said it himself

[wsr885r]

What is the image at 2:02??

[Iskatefoundation]

@wsr885r that my friend is life and dead. left side is death. right side is life

[1Lozzix1]

I uploaded a regular video of the studio version of this song...

[ChocolateLemonss]

you should have more "cleansing" pictures

[AnnaRose5225]

this is the first time i've heard this song and i must say, i feel very close to humanity after listening to it

[AnnaRose5225]

p.s. i quite like the "saltless dinners" line

[hiddeninromance]

I hate this videos, google image every word and display a picture of it. It's so mind numbingly boring.

[ghostofmyheart]

There is this rumor going around that the US government was involved in 9/11 and that bin laden was a CIA asset . Probably just a bunch of considerably nuts saying that though. Oh, the news just started, got to run! I never miss my programing.

[myquest666420]

@ghostofmyheart hahahahahaha

[YouGotSubbed]

beautiful.

[usedconn41]

Don't forget what you've learned all you give is returned

And if life seems absurd what you need is some laughter

[OpheliaImmortal]

Great song and good quality, but the video's just way too literal

[glasses92]

@OpheliaImmortal dont you want to teach people what metaphors are

[MrSeniorJJ]

Random pics... I think not.

[ghostofmyheart]

0:43 should be a picture of Bush

[KevMchale11]

@ghostofmyheart - really?? So are you saying Bush is worse than bin Laden??

[Meshkavah]

Conor Oberst is probably above posting petty little opinions on posts made on a site like Youtube.

Obama is no more the Anti-Christ than the constant government of this country.

Posting stuff like that on beauty like this.. is like littering.

You should be ashamed.

[roastbeefdj]

if your at a crossroad in life, turn the ipod to this song and think the situation over very deeply. Whatever bothers me seems so forgotten, and usually I'll realize what I need to change. The beauty of music, its just so therapeutical, thank you conor

[ItsRainingZOMBIEZ]

Conor never fails to impress me.

[recycleyouable]

lol @1:03

[TheRunningamuck]

"Don't forget what you learned; all you give is returned. And if life seems absurd, what you need is some laughter."

[iTzSONJA86]

Everytime I hear this song....I think of Spongebob. Especially the first 10 seconds. haha Never fails.

[radio19952001]

Obama is the antichrist

[ItsRainingZOMBIEZ]

@radio19952001

They predict that the anti-christ is coming from Europe, not America.

[humansRanimals]

yeah the madman is bush (cheney would have worked too) but showing osama kinda ruins the whole point. you should google his direct connections to the bush family for more.

[pubfun]

lol, i love how liberal he is

[10sup10]

@humansRanimals I take it you watched Zeitgeist The Movie......

[Emanick1]

What's the painting at 2:01 ("many lifetimes had passed")?

[MrTerribIe]

thats a kool painting

[omgwhateveretc]

the madman is bush

[omgwhateveretc]

I'VE BEEN TO GLENDALE PARK!!!!!

i'm from there.

represent.

[omgwhateveretc]

he's most probably talking about Verdugo Park in Glendale

[Jarederaj]

thats awsome

[ZepherZelda]

On a detox walk through a glendale park on sidewalk chalk someone wrote in red, "Start over"

I get the chills everytime i listen to that.

[newjerseyjew]

your madman piC should of been Dick Cheney.

[yocorrocontrajeras]

if life seems absurd what you need is some laughter :]

[benegeseritwhore]

just to be clear- marching to the beat of the mad man's drum- that was following bush into war's across the middle east and central asia- this is how the empire ends.

[benegeseritwhore]

you used the picture of the wrong mad man

[abighairywoman]

possible 3rd favorite maybe 4th

[abighairywoman]

a madman perfect pic

[TannaSmile]

That second pictureis amazing.

[KittyMeat3]

pretty pictures

pretty song

[WeekendJAM]

yeah theres a theme.

[EMOTEandEXUDE]

There is a common theme among the pictures, especially as they relate to the song and its theme.....

[IEatCray0ns]

I think the video would have been better if there was a common theme among the pictures rather than a concise association with the song.

[northernlight111]

He is so beautiful.

[azillia420]

The painting at the end was so beautiful...

Does anyone know the titlle/artist?

p.s. this song is awesome :) nice video

[aclockworkchloe]

Conor Oberst is a genius.

[bubsadoozy]

If you listen the first verse is about 911.

Its incredible.

[randomiszen]

"and if life seems absurd, what you need is some laughter"

i love that line.

i love this song.

i love this band.

[Fuhgl]

@randomiszen Oh man you are so poetic.

[timlovessunshyne5]

@randomiszen i agree completely. i was just listening to this song and it brought me so much peace of mind.

[PhoneLad]

"take the fruit from the tree, break the skin with your teeth"

[jordingle]

awesome song awesome awesome awesome

[RocketSquirell]

Songs set to this kind of laid back driving beat are always amazing. This one is the holds up to Lua and First Day Of My Life easily.

[chunklighttuna]

Awesome footage and a beautiful song. Bright eyes rule.

[maxtowle]
