The Band's Origin: Initially known as the Towheads, the DuPree siblings got their start playing gigs at BrewTones Coffee Galaxy in their hometown of Tyler, Texas. They soon became MossEisley, a reference to the city in the Star Wars trilogy, but later (after a brief stint playing under the names Neverland or Sinclair) shortened the name due to possible legal ramifications. As Eisley, they grew a devoted local fan base, and in early 2003 they were signed to Warner Brothers Records, through Nettwerk Management. Around that time, Coldplay was beginning the U.S. portion of their Sudden Rush of Blood tour, and they asked Eisley to open for them. So just after releasing their first EP, Laughing City, Eisley found themselves in the enviable position of touring with a wor More... (Submit New Eisley Lyrics) (Submit New Eisley Lyrics) Review about Eisley ... | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Brightly Wound performed by Eisley It's funny that people get so defensive about this song being "about Twilight," especially since that is impossible. If it really matters to you so much, do a simple Google search and you'll see what I mean. "Brightly Wound" was on Eisley's first LP "Room Noises," which was released on February 8, 2005. The song was written long before that, but the latest you can say it was written was within the first couple of months of 2005. Twilight was published on October 5, 2005. How could the Duprees have written a song about a book they had no way of reading? Unless they traveled forward into October, they couldn't have been influenced by Twilight in writing this song... it's not like they were reading Stephenie Meyer's journal or anything. They have mentioned Twilight in the last year, but this song is over four years old now. Keep that in mind before you SWEAR that HAS to be the ONLY meaning of this song. With that said, if it reminds you personally of Twilight... that's fine. It's just also fine if it doesn't make me think of the same thing. Early Eisley music was typically like this-- magical, mystical, sort of like a fairy tale... so this song is very much a representation of who EISLEY is as opposed to anyone else. Outcasts | Reviewer: Kayla ------ About the song Telescope Eyes performed by Eisley I guess in general it is in fact about being that of the unfamiliar. You may not know anything about me, or where i come from, or why i am the way i am, but im human just like all of you and i bleed and i hurt and i cry just like you. This song has a voice, if you give it enough time to speak then you may learn somthing new. what a band! | Reviewer: Naomi ------ About the song Brightly Wound performed by Eisley wow. eisley is amazing! their voices are flawless, their music is beautiful, and their harmonies are wonderful. it's also awesome that they're all cousins and siblings! :) brightly wound is definitely my favorite song by them. oh, btw, the people who are comparing this song with twilight- it is very similar . . . too similar. maybe the lady who wrote twilight got her idea from this brilliant band? i can't accept the other option that people seem to be thinking. i cannot believe that eisley wrote this masterpiece about twilight. i like the books and all . . . but that would ruin it for me. she (twilight lady) says on her website that she had a dream about the meadow etc. then wrote the books based off of that one scene . . . maybe she had just heard the song, so she had a dream about it? just a thought. probably nothing like that though. it's probably just coincidence. Peter Pan? | Reviewer: laura ------ About the song Brightly Wound performed by Eisley As obvious as it is, it reminds me of the 2003 version of Peter Pan. Then again, most of their songs do as I'm a big fan of anything Peter Pan, but still... Great lyrics. Great music. I love Eisley. =] Whoa now you guys | Reviewer: Kara ------ About the song Brightly Wound performed by Eisley Whoa, whoa, whoa...now you all! Hold your horses back and quit saying rather stoogey things to one another about this whole Twilight/Brightly wound business. If you perceive it to remind you of twilight then so be it. Eveyones different. I, for one didnt enjoy the books and see the song in a different light, but I wont judge or say anything more on my part about that. And I agree with some of what Amy and Josie were both saying in their reviews. But please keep just the wit and opinions up and the swearing down. I'm sure Eisley would rather have this all stay as pleasant fan reviews. But nevertheless, this song is a beautiful one and yes, "It kinda makes me very happy." :] Heh Keep it peaceful guys, Kara Lovely | Reviewer: Christina ------ About the song Brightly Wound performed by Eisley This is no song to compare with Twilight. Anyways, I love this song so much. I think it's absolutely lovely. It makes me so happy. I just picture them at a meadow singing this. It is gorgeous. I LOVE IT, my favorite. Words cannot stand up to this wonderful song. Amy is a douche. | Reviewer: Josie ------ About the song Brightly Wound performed by Eisley Dear Amy, You're an idiot. I'm not 13, I'm 20 and honestly the Twilight books maintain a very good story. I'm sure that anything you'll ever do in your poor life, will never amount to the lives that have been effected by these books. I'm not saying I had anytime of epiphany while reading them, but others have. Also, I highly doubt you'll ever have 4 books on the New York Times Bestseller list, so I suggest that instead of putting people down who enjoy the books, that you just ignore them and shut upppppp. I don't even know you and I already think you suck. In conclusion: You come off like a cunt. In Response to all of you morons. | Reviewer: Amy ------ About the song Brightly Wound performed by Eisley NOT ABOUT TWILIGHT! NOT EVERYTHING IS ABOUT THAT STUPID BOOK!!!! I swear to God, I'm so sick of hearing everyone relate EVERYTHING to Twilight. This song is a love story and not once do I hear it mention a shitty vampire novel or a talentless writer who was bored with her day job and managed to appeal to 13 year olds around the world. In conclusion: quit it, and get some real literature into you!!! Matthew Shepard | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Telescope Eyes performed by Eisley Matthew Shepard didn't commit suicide, he was tortured and killed because he was gay. the beating was so severe that the only areas on his face that were not covered in blood were those where his tears had washed the blood stains away. the Matthew Shepard Act (adding gays to the protection of hate crime laws) hasnt passed yet cause BUSH vetoed it. In agreement with Twilight Fan | Reviewer: Victory ------ About the song Brightly Wound performed by Eisley Totally, the first image in my head when i heard this song was of Bella and Edward sitting in the field and edward glistening, beautiful. I love eisley, with brightly wound being the first eisley song i heard (God only knows how long ago) it has a specail place in my heart! lovely instrumentals | Reviewer: blue ------ About the song Head Against the Sky performed by Eisley Eisley is wonderful at capturing certain colors in their songs. I know that sounds odd, but that is what their songs display in my mind. Most of their songs are green and yellow or gold but I love how this one is cloaked in a dark blue. It has a nice vibe, with nice instrumentals. The lyrics though, have potential for depth, but are very sketchy. iCreate | Reviewer: Serena ------ About the song Marvelous Things performed by Eisley This song is amazing, it's creative and original.. I love the "ah ah.." part! And the overall lyrics are so miraculous, it's hard not to listen to this song repeatdedly. It shows that the world is marvelous, and yet, it can still give us the creeps. although everything will be great agree | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Brightly Wound performed by Eisley I absolutely agree with reviewers who made the connection from Brightly Wound to "Twilight". Every time i listen to the song, I can't help but wonder what/who inspired these lyrics, because "coincidence" would be rather impressive. Far as I know.... | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Telescope Eyes performed by Eisley Yes the song was inspired by that kid but is not really about him totally.They are talking about two kids that live near each other and is a conversation between the both, the geeky kid wants to hang out but the other normal kid doesn't want to be seen with her with her glasses and braces and such. The one explains to the other, well you say we are similar but we really have nothing in common. ***FIRE*** Erm? | Reviewer: Anna ------ About the song Telescope Eyes performed by Eisley Well, I don't know if I'm failing to see a metaphor but this is what -I- think the obvious thing the song is about is: I think it's about a girl, shes superstitious, She is haunted by this ghost that's a bit mixed between reality and mind, and shes scared of it, but when she stops believing in it, it leaves her alone. awesome | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Brightly Wound performed by Eisley I agree with the twilight reviewer, the first time i heard this song, bella and edward immediately came to mind. Im so glad someone else thinks that too, ahh i would freaking die for the book. It changed my life too <3 They're all amazing books, Stephenie Meyer is just a genious. This Is My Review | Reviewer: Anonymous Chinese Person ------ About the song Brightly Wound performed by Eisley I am Chinese too and I understand this song. =| I love this song, it gives me the creeps in a really good way and I wish I have someone to share this song with. The part with their intertwining vocals is amazing. looking for friends | Reviewer: jll ------ About the song Brightly Wound performed by Eisley well i don't really understand what the song mean because i'm a Chinese.To my surprise,you made up web for the beautiful song.I like this song 'cause sometimes I cried when I listended to it.And I want to make friends with all of you.IF you're willing to,send E-mail to me. P.S I'm only a high school student.I'm waiting patiently for you in response to "addict" | Reviewer: anonyMOOSE ------ About the song Brightly Wound performed by Eisley i don't think they'll sell out even if they do get blown up into popularity. take sherri for example, she recently married chad gilbert from new found glory. new found glory got moderately blown up but never sold out. twilight | Reviewer: :) ------ About the song Brightly Wound performed by Eisley this song, when i first heard it, it reminded me instantly of the book called twlight by stephanie meyer. that book and the sequels, new moon and eclipse changed my life. this song is perfect for the book, it depicts perfectly bella and edward, bella not wanting to grow up, but be forever the same age as edward. and the humming meadow... i love this song, i can't believe i haven't heard it earlier. and i agree with 'addict' i hope they stay the indie band that they are, and don't get to famous ^_^ You could review the artist/band Eisley in Biography page You could review Eisley album by visiting Albums page and selecting an album You could review Eisley song by clicking the song which you like  Download "Eisley" Music | |
