Lyrical video of Conor Oberst's song "Poison Oak". One the greatest songs by him. It's absolutely brilliant!

  • @tzohfeld This song is about Ian's brother/Oberst's cousin, Collin McElroy, who committed suicide after battling a meth addiction and sexuality issues

  • I always thought about the line about the person's brother's tears was a nod to a funeral. I think this song is about losing a girl you loved when you were a teenager, and then learning that the person had died after drifting away from them for years.

  • I'm glad tomorrow I get my first tattoo, and it's going to be Bright eyes lyrics.

  • i always saw this song like it was about a rebellious older sibling that conor admired.

  • that slide guitar chokes me up everytime

    

  • @Floydthefuckbag iv allways thout it was in reference to the canaryes they used in mines to save lives. am i wrong?

  • WHERE THE FUCK IS MY YELLOW BIRD!? I know we don't know each other but I'm missing you like hell...

  • @DeathSwagForCutie yellow bird means the love of your life

  • beautiful song, very beautiful song!
