I enjoy him. If someone else sang IWAIM, it would have been an outstanding album. His voice just didn't do it for me on that album, but I still enjoy very much.

I think Bright Eyes are very good. [i]I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning[/i] is probably my favourite CD of the year.

Bright Eyes have some FANTASTIC songs, in a way, I feel bad some people can't admit it. I ahve to admit the guy is a dick and some of the songs range on obnixious but some of them are some of the best written modern songs around.

cue all the "scene" girls....

Same here. I recently made my progressive rock crazy friend buy it, but he didn't enjoy it nearly as much as I did.

I'm seeing them on the 10th, and Lifted is probably my favorite album ever, so yeah...I like them a little.

Bright Eyes is pretty cool I guess. I've heard a little of his music. It's alright. I'm not a huge fan though.

[quote=Idenman]cue all the "scene" girls....[/quote]

Cue the "stfu n00b3rt". :)

lyrically i like that first day of my life song, but the guy is so whiney and can't really sing, so the song as a whole is less enjoyable. that and a couple other songs is really the extent of what i know of him.

Overrated, and not so good. And that's coming from an "teenage-indie-girl" and scene and total popist.

[QUOTE=Zappa]I've only ever heard him on Austin City limits. And couldn't enjoy it even a tiny bit.[/QUOTE]

I like Bright Eyes but I thought that was horrible.

I also hate the obsessive fans but he has a few good albums. [i]Fevers & Mirrors[/i] is classy all around.

[i]Digital Ash[/i] should never have been recorded.

I like a few of his songs some of it sounds kinda like country music though.....

Yes...

His folk songs are good.

I like the songs that pack a punch but the rest suck.

I really like "Haligh, Haligh, A Lie, Haligh".

I also really like your avatar.

heh thanks

well i couldn't have said it better myself (i actually tried and yours sounded better) i second your most excellent opinion.

Yeah, Fevers And Mirrors is by far his best.

[QUOTE=Sep]Yeah, Fevers And Mirrors is by far his best.[/QUOTE]
Yeah. I'm Wide Awake and It's Morning is pretty decent too. I have to agree 90% of Digital Ash.. is worse than terrible and for some reason he decided to tour it not I'm Wide Awake.

He probably couldn't gather the musicians on IWAIM to have a full tour of it.

my sisters crazy about them but i think there singers a little di di di

I like them. Fevers and Mirrors is great. Lifted & I'm Wide Awake were solid.

[quote=some guy on the other page]Yeah. I'm Wide Awake and It's Morning is pretty decent too. I have to agree 90% of Digital Ash.. is worse than terrible and for some reason he decided to tour it not I'm Wide Awake.[/quote] He did tour for [i]I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning[/i], but it wasn't quite as long as the [i]Digital Ash in a Digital Urn[/i] tour, which I'm glad I didn't go see. All of the Bright Eyes albums that I own are great, except for that pesky [i]Digital Ash[/i], which just grows worse over time. There are a few decent songs on that, I guess.

There are a couple good songs on [i]Digital Ash[/i], I just can't think of any.

Down a Rabbit Hole
Take It Easy (Love Nothing)
Ship in a Bottle

those are the only 3 songs that i can listen to without screaming in agony.

I think most of his lyrics are absolutely amazing. I like some of his stuff as a whole, but some of the other stuff is just....not for me at all.

I saw him on his [I]I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning[/I] tour. It was quite disappointing. I've listened to [I]Digital Ash in a Digital Urn[/I] once, maybe twice. I still like the other Bright Eyes albums I have though.

I like some bright eyes song like "lua" and "something vague" and most of the fevers and mirrors album. I think its more for the girls, my girlfriends in love with him and whenever she texts/emails me she always quotes songlyrics from some of his songs. I wonder how much pussy he gets, i bet he gets loads but turns it down because shes not the 1 etc..

I enjoy Easy/Lucky/Free. That's a good tune.

That is the fakest looking post and corresponding user I have ever seen, so I hope it's real.

+ the avatar

And it is real, this is the internet remember.

I like him.

Bright Eyes is really great.

I started listening to Bright eyes because they're rather praised down there at S&L, and some of the best writers have their usernames influenced by their songs (APS and bowl of oranges).

At first I wasn't that attracted. It felt too...acoustic-y for me. But I got to the lyrics and it all pretty much resolved to yes, Conor writes amazingly.

yup.

S&L??

Welcome to Alt/Indie, Tojes.

EDIT: S&L is Songwriting & Lyrics.

Don't go there. We have enough crappy songwriting with RQ.

do you think he gets a lot of women like a pimp?
