anyone like them? they've started to make quite a name for themselves on the underground scene...there's too many songs by them to say which ones are best to download, but the two that i've been listening to most are "Waste of Paint" and "Lover I don't Have to Love". "Drunk Kid Catholic" and "Padriac My Prince" are pretty good as well.

^that's Connor Oberst, the lead singer. the picture was taken from http://www.sagamore.iupui.edu/32/32-11/11bright-eyes.html

i have yet to see them in concert or anything like that. my best friend who is set on marrying connor turned me on to their music...it's awesome! check 'em out

i like Bright Eyes. i've actually been on a Bright Eyes kick for the past few weeks..

He REALLY is! I mean, you hear his lyrics . . . And then, like HOOBASTANK'S new song's lyrics and you're like . . . This is impossible. There's no way you can have someone so talented and then someone so lyrically challenged in the same world.

Can I revive this topic? Has anybody seen him live? I like the cd 'letting off the Happiness' the best. It has a bunch of great songs.
