Unbelievable | Reviewer: Lexa | 11/16/2007 I started off listening to classic rock when I was young but in the thousands of bands I have listened to no one has ever made me feel and relate to music like Conor Oberst has. His music has the ability to make me laugh and cry on command. If I ever write a piece of poetry as beautiful or as powerful as his I will truly have accomplished something. Music is just as much lyrics as it is sounds. Bright Eyes is amazing. Incredible. | Reviewer: A New Day | 10/28/2007 It's amazing how conor can project his emotions verbally. Not just screaming into the microphone. He's imagination is at an immeasurable level and he's intelligent enough to make sense of it. It's the tune, the lyrics, the unqiue voice and the man behind the micorphone that creates each song with meaning. By far one of the best bands in the world. Bright Eyes | Reviewer: Rae | 10/20/2007 Bright Eyes is one of the most influencial bands I've ever listened to. Conor is a huge inspiration to myself and many other aspiring songwriters/musicians all over the world. I haven't been disappointed by one of Oberst's albums yet. And each upcoming album is a joy to wait for because you know it won't disappoint you. But if you're an upcoming Bright Eyes fan, I suggest you start from his very first album/demo and make your way up. It's been extremely fun to watch Conor Oberst mature and grow with his music. Good music is a rarity these days. | Reviewer: Leslie | 10/13/2007 Bright eyes has been a wonderful companion of mine for a couple of years now and I am so thankful that such a gift has been shared with the world. What ability to be able to convert emotion into words. Conor Oberst is a genius. Visionary, prophetic. and evolving !!! | Reviewer: Brett Summey | 10/2/2007 Conner Oberst, teamed w mogis and nate walcott , are a rarity that comes along every 40 years. (Dylan) For those that don't get it, good, one less waisted tickets. For the others that are deeply touched and awed by his heart felt lyrics i relate. For years i never thoguht someone as relevant and thought provoking would enter into my life. I just back from seeing a few shows in Europe and had the pleasure to meet Conner and Mike. Two of the most kind and gentle guys you could meet. There warmth radiated ! I'm from nc, but flew out this weekend to see the L. A. show. Completley mind blowing !!! I want try and describe it because i can't, but for the people who truely appreciate his art and evolution as an artist, i have an amazing tape of the show. And i love the fact Conner doesn't care, or i wouldn't tape. (have somebody tape) I could write and write lyrics that are special to me and compleltey touch my heart but haven't got the time. I will say this, the song he encored in L.A. june, 29, at the Hollywood bowl is musically mind blowing and lrically astounding. He comes out swinging about poverty, katrina, and war , but most people just hear a loud song with a ripping solo by Mogis. Check song out on utube or i'll have it posted on my apple.com page soon ! love and mercies to all ! Brett oh my god! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/2/2007 bright eyes is the most amazing band EVER! i dont know how i ever lived without conor oberst's beautiful songs! i just started listening to bright eyes like 3 months ago, but i have totally fallen in love. i didnt know that music could mean so much to me. conor is such a beautiful songwriter, and bright eyes music is very close to my heart:) and i dont even have all of their cds yet! im getting lifted tomorrow, cannot wait!!!! Let's Not Shit Ourselves!!! | Reviewer: Jo$hy | 9/23/2007 Without a doubt,There's no one,and I mean,no one who can even come close to the genious musial virtuoso Oberst,I mean,Has anyone lived at all? Most of the verses people don't quite understand is simply because they haven't gone through a couple of life's events,but when they come,They will realize how Oberst Premeditaded Their entire reaction before it even happened. I would like to leave them with a quote, " Now a mother takes loans out, sends her kids off to colleges. Her family's reduced to names on a shopping list. While, a coroner kneels beneath a great, wooden crucifix. He knows there's worse things than being alone. And so I've learned to retreat at the first sign of danger. I mean, why wait around, if it's just to surrender? An ambition, I've found, can lead only to failure. I do not read the reviews. No, I am not singing for you." Take That,Anomymous! Conor the next elliott smith? | Reviewer: nick | 9/22/2007 I think this writer is incredible, I just got into him now and he reminds me a lot of elliott smith, my favorite artist. Its amazing how the best writers can entertain so many with just there voice and guitar. Do you guys think conor is the next elliott smith?
