I say that Bright Eyes is emo. I don't give a crap what the rest of you say, to me it's emo.



Go ahead, I don't mind how you call it, I won't call it emo, if emo stands for emotional music, this is a way to broad defenition, besides 15 year ago bands that are now defined as Emo were called Indie rock back then, which would stand for independent. Also a lame name, but at least a little more defined...
I don't think it should make a difference how we called, as long as we agree on one thing: it is great music! For me that is the definition: there are two kinds of Music; the ones that do tough me, and the ones that don't... Bright eyes falls in the first one......

Ya, I don't think that I have argued about a more completely useless topic. BUT I dont know how you can listen to a song like "something vague" or "waste of paint" and trust me tons of others but im tired and don't want to name them all, but anyway i believe when a man is singing these basically flawless lyrics very emotianally that would pretty much mean that it is emo.Finnally I think that it would be stupid to keep arguing about something pathetic as genres. I think its emo, but in the end I could care less. The overall message is not intended to say that he is an emotianal man it is to help people and mostly help himself. You can always learn something from a bright eyes song.

I love the realness and openness of Bright Eyes. I love how he actually shows emotion in his songs...it's like you can feel what he's going through and what he has gone through. I like that in a band. I like being able to relate to musicians, to be able to listen to a song and think "he explained exactly what I'm going through in a way that I never could"....That's what I love about Connor. He's sheer genius.

We are still waiting for your best mr. Oberst. Not that the offered goodness isn't quenching enough. Just that there is more mystical magistry to escape your mental. I kind of want a lover I don't have to love too. know anyone?

i dont care what freakin' genre people put bright eyes in. it doesnt change the music and the lyrics. so whatever genre Bright Eyes is a part of it doesnt matter because the songs still mean the same. the songs are simply....amazing.

BRIGHT EYES ARE THE SHIT!

>>By Chillobaby   (Sunday, 7 Aug 2005 21:05)



Bright Eyes are the most shizzlistic shit ever. Although my friends have described it as a "drunk bloke warbling along to some music", and therefore must be shot :)

Bright Eyes is such an amazing band. Conor Oberst is an extravagantly awesome lyricist and musician. I suggest that if you like Bright Eyes, you check out his previous bands, The Desaparecidos and Commander Venus. He began recording music when he was around 14.
