Bright Eyes - Sing, Sing, Sing (Live on the Late Late Show)

[@ProudToWasteYourTime]

the greatest song writer of his generation. finally a talented musician who isnt a sell out.

[@Rachels_Composure]

Conor Oberst, Alex Turner and Jack White.

[@teddybomber182]

I LOVE how they sound exactly the same LIVE and in the CD's! GREAT STUFF!

[@CaliforniaJoker1]

"1,2,666" has to be the greatest count in to a song ever.

[@alaskaonthemoon]

I feel like At The Bottom Of Everything and Sing, Sing, Sing can be completely different songs. I mean, if you wanted them to be.

[@TheGreatDissolve]

_real thinking_ is about establishing the _similarities_ between things as well as their _differences_

[@AndyOutbreak]

??? it's the same song ???

[@getofftheinternet28]

1:50 " M. Ward for President ! " (yes, it needs to be reiterated every now and then )

[@sesshomaru322]

I didn't even realize that was M. Ward until I saw the guy burning through his guitar with that fingerpicking. I thought to myself, "Well, there's only one guy that can play guitar like that."

[@blixtenmusik]

yes, and as said 20000 times before. Bright Eyes called it "Sing, Sing, Sing" when they played this version. So the song's called Sing sing sing here, I think everybody understands it's the same song.

[@mewmewgoesthekitty]

Whether you agree with Conor's statements in this or not, at least he has the balls to stand up for what he believes in and use his celebrity to try and evoke change.This is a kickass song (which is obviously different from At the Bottom) and Conor is kickass, the end. Oh, and M. WARD FOR PRESIDENT.

[@RyanPennington87]

Just checking in from 2023

[@Barbra-Anne]

Hello from 2024.

[@lillyandalex]

def one of my favs

[@ThisIsWar257]

look at that, some of the best three musicians in the world today playing together. Conor Oberst, Mike Mogis, and M. Ward. Great song. Great album. Great band, even better with M. Ward!

[@mskidthegoat]

Three cheers for ignorance on KZbin! Anyways, going to see him live on Monday and I honestly cannot wait. I have been waiting for this all my life.

[@riverriverson638]

That bass harmonica at the end nailed it

[@timeforjon]

Oh no. no. That comment was about the Beatles, it was a reply to someone else's comment. I love bright eyes, i agree with you 100%. I am left feeling guilty that my comment appeared to be putting bright eyes down. Apologies.

[@redheadmenace]

I love this song, At the bottom of everything, that is. :]

[@TsugumiRO]

who wouldn't? *O* these guys are amazing :D

[@steviebkhall]

still lovin it .

[@TylerJuranovich]

@villasixx It is. This was during the Lifted era, earlier than Wide It's Morning, so Sing, Sing, Sing was probably an early song title.

[@iTubeQQQQQ]

sweet, thanks.

[@BurntByTheMoon44]

haha I know. I love Conor. I was so psyched when they played At the Bottom of Everything. Also the soul singer in a session band. I loved how they were wearing business suits, or that's what it looked like at least. I was pretty high up in the balcony, haha.

[@ZoidutStudioz]

superb love him yes

[@u2emotional4yt]

awwww conor eyeliner days...

[@plonkgenius72]

CLASS!!!

[@j815wilkinson]

They change their titles a lot. One Foot in Front of the Other also changed to Landlocked Blues.

[@raukzenta]

I admire your courage

[@AndyOutbreak]

Great performance. Bush inspired great protest art. Where is Conor when we need him now in the Trump era

[@johnh518]

He's around, went on a pretty solid tirade about Trump when I saw him a couple years ago lol

[@Backsaladfrontblunt]

Down in the weeds

[@brandonshaw7619]

He just showed up!!!!!!!!

[@TheAstronomyFloyd]

Better Oblivion Community Center with Phoebe Bridgers in 2019 and solo album in 2020

[@smithfire14]

Aaaahhhhhh--greeeed!

[@beachsquint]

"I'm happy just because." conor reminds me of a cute little baby

[@skly24]

...um wow the main guy in the band, conor oberst(the singer), while he doesnt have the best voice, has insane lyrics to make up for it. He IS the best lyricist so far in the 21st century. 2nd, its amazing what he can make up with just an acoustic guitar. He is a brilliant musician and so are his bandmates. I'd like to see you make songs as well as conor does.

[@ihavesixfeet]

my god, i could not agree more.

[@EchoFalls1982]

OK I will. Most bright eyes songs are pretty easy to learn. I have one up on my channel already but will put another one up soon. All my recordings are awful though.

[@BlueCartoonBlues]

M. Ward, the eternal badass

[@peterlosingwendy7]

1, 2...666

[@BurntByTheMoon44]

ha I went on the 30th too at Chicago. It was amazing. I wanted to record it but they took away my camera. Damn them, but it was still so fun.

[@47themovies]

Are you kidding? This song predates the 40s. It is an old Benny Goodman jazz piece!

[@Tsumami__]

@Smashlyynn no,that was a short phase. todd baechle does though

[@Tirananniel]

this is the freaking best song ever. M Ward for President!

[@FucklyDuckly]

basist own the scene !!

[@CullenKowalski]

The theme of the song and conclusion leads me to believe that the song is about Mindfulness (aka Engaged Buddhism) (3:01 - 3:20) "ohh my morning is coming back, **the whole world is waking up...** ... "I'm happy just because I found out **I am really no-one**

[@X0XhallielinnXOX]

I LOVE CONOR!

[@daydrmnation]

i wish conor could write a song like this about today's issues and women's rights being taken away. we need another conor protest song.

[@splitsville8479]

Check out "miracle of life", he kind of did

[@xStephism]

The best of Conor.

[@rachela92987]

😍😍😍

[@albertjcorado]

@ColourRiot it is called that but this is probably from before that album was released so they ended up changing the name

[@EchoFalls1982]

Travis are really boring so I'm glad you prefer Bright Eyes! I'm going to do a Bright Eyes cover soon, it's probably going to sound awful.

[@toyotawalter]

M. Ward is a beast of a musician

[@johnmorisi8]

yo is that m ward there? so awesome these guys

[@talktothewalls]

Conor Oberst is the sexiest man alive. Not to be creepy or anything.

[@addictioner]

I hope when people say its a different song they just mean an earlier version....

[@NicolasCurcioWriter]

@SaladTaste You speak the truth good sir.

[@reuniteddp]

this song is now called 'at the bottom everything'

[@Unessecary]

-nods- They're right, this song is called 'at the bottom of everything' thestory intro just isn't there. P:

[@iTubeQQQQQ]

true dat.

[@Fentoman]

@smartarted It was called sing sing sing before it was released on CD

[@chon4186]

God damn Conor Oberst is the fucking man. The lyrics of his songs are amazing, I grew up on this shit from 13 to now (23). He has been making amazing music since he was 13 (check out his Water album or Here's to Special Treatment, especially the songs Space Invaders and Lava Monster I think they have them on KZbin) yet when he kinda sounds like he is 7, his lyrics are still great. Some compare him to Dylan, I'd say they are not far off.

[@conformistforever]

the song is called At The Bottom Of Everything

[@NaomiLovesDifferent]

hes professed that he isnt the greatest singer in the world in his songs in the main stream eyes but in mine he is the best because he has 400x the passion as any of these mainstreams losers thats what makes this indie and simple wonderfull...but thats just my opinon :)

[@MichaelStec]

the Beatles were possibly the greatest group of all time, way to state the obvious, but since we'r on the topic, ever heard of the Who? Lou Reed? the Doors? BOB DYLAN? they were all in the same class as the Beatles, all great songwriters and musicians, but they also stirred up a hell of a lot of controversy. Bob Dylan wasn't a big fan of the govt, as you should remember if you 'grew up in the 60s'. listen to a few more bright eyes songs before you go passing judgement.

[@dreamscapejanitor]

This song is At the Bottom of Everything! Maybe he switched the titles because this version doesnt have the story intro.

[@samerika]

he very often changes the lyrics to his song while perfoming them

[@ixtacoyotlpena]

@lleth1937 oh..... so when did he change it to "at the bottom of everything"?

[@iTubeQQQQQ]

at the beginning, does he say "1, 2, 666.." or "1, 2, Sing, sing, sing.." or something else?

[@4kirb]

I heard 666. Also 11 years ago, nice.

[@klarolivia]

I think it's because this was before the album containing the song was released, so there wasn't a real title for the song... I think ... :)

[@willb4750]

ok who the fuck is this Craig Kilborn

[@Juchmako]

He looks like he hasn't got any sleep for days xP

[@keara88]

@CaliforniaJoker1 ahahah completely agree, I was just about to post a comment mentioning it when I saw yours (:

[@eheraldez]

@smartarted Thats what it was actually called before the record was recorded.

[@chapet5]

does anyone know exactly what model of Martin guitar Conor is using...it's always bothered me.

[@clb009]

@Facialcream13 Cassadaga was amazing.

[@myconman95]

heheh i love the pirate talk show host in the beginning. ARRRRR next guest's..

[@lilsweetp]

oh conor, how'd you get so fly

[@iamjoedubois]

1, 2, 3, 4, SIX SIX SIX!

[@marinaferreira911]

I came here because i thought bright eyes was covering Travis ("sing sing sing")

[@DallasRenard]

sing sing sing is the original name of the song, he says six six six and so more than three still does make sense he was not refering to the devil in any way it was more. . .iregularity more than anything, he was fucked up too, dont think so hard people.

[@CockslamUrBhole]

I did the same thing at first. I heard the twangy guitars and didn't even give them a chance. Now I'm like... damn.

[@xGambitx]

i seriously love mike mogis.

[@MedievalHollywood]

Was "Sing, Sing, Sing" the original title for "At the Bottom of Everything"?

[@iTubeQQQQQ]

ahh, which is it. and is that m. ward with him? people are saying that it is. i'm not that familiar with him yet.

[@villasixx]

isnt the song called at the bottom of everything?

[@samerika]

he does pretty often.

[@philipsmog]

fuck he's prettier than Cat Power LOL

[@timeforjon]

I actually find it quite hard to believe that you grew up listening to Dylan and you still cant realize that this is amazing songwriting. i pity you really.

[@skly24]

hes saying sing "sing sing sing"(hence the name of the song before he changed it).

[@Victor-yi6qq]

Shout out M Ward for quietly murdering that solo

[@skly24]

lol he probably he prbly is but if hes that amazing drunk 'nuff said. Best artist so far of 21st(i no he made stuff before then)

[@TeexRad]

well this was unreleased at this point, and was later renamed.

[@SunnyManchester]

Fuck!!!!! so amazing, man! hahaha

[@BrightEyes10003]

@larrysmoreland he said "IN to debt"

[@mskidthegoat]

@BrightEyes10003 Did you honestly read the description box, BrightEyes10003? Tsk, tsk

[@andrew1903]

He changed the name, and some lyrics when it was put on im wide awake.

[@chuckz1487]

@Facialcream13 dude cassadage was the bomb.....

[@ixtacoyotlpena]

wait, that's not "sing, sing, sing". It's "At The Bottom Of Everything"

[@BurntByTheMoon44]

Yeah me too! I was was...holy fuck...it's a Bright Eyes song! And yeah this concert has made me start liking music by M.Ward and Jim James. Bermuda Highway was actually my favorite song that Jim James did. I tried to memorize the lyrics during the concert so I could look it up later, haha. I loved the thing he did with his guitar. Did he knock on it or something?

[@ColourRiot]

I thought this was called 'At the bottom of everything'?

[@BrucklynXANDER]

At the Bottom of Everything

[@zxcvnmtgb]

M. Ward for president!

[@Graciefrance]

this is at the bottom of everything:'D?

[@headfullofpesticides]

he seems pretty out of it. i really like his intro

[@standardyarn]

mward for president.

[@thechainsawkids]

i love conor. :)
