I can't believe I never saw this before. One of the best Bright Eyes songs, with the best special guests ever.

"So I laid some nights beside her/In a bed made for a queen/She said I kissed her different/That all the men her age were mean" This song is so fucking well written.

Conor is so sexy. It doesn't even have to do with the way he looks, just the way he handles himself onstage and pours his heart into his music. It's beautiful.

Love it when I see a female drummer :) It's misunderstood that only male drummers will do, because women are just as good ! And it's such a cool band, Bright Eyes, she's lucky that they have enough perspective to join her in their band :D

Moe Tucker (Velvet) was dope. Malkmus commented on her 'un-ironic drumming [,]' and, as you all surely know, Malkmus is rare to praise. What was it he said about The Fall? 'No one ever got rich off of ripping them off'? Which is a great comment, because Pavement cited both The Fall and The Replacements as being their primary influences.

@klarolivia She's Maria Taylor, and she also sings, plays guitar and makes very beautiful and unique music. But, seriously, there is a lot of great female drummers (see Quasi or The Velvet Underground, for example) in a lot of genres. They're great too, and they can be better than the men, the drum is not about strong, is about play an instrument and about feelings. So, I love it too, but I think that this is not a strange think. Female drummers rock a lot, and Maria Taylor is just fantastic.

I'm disappointed there's no falling minor piano part right after "it's a room I'm renovating" I always listen for that on the album.

Bright Eyes has its own nice pace, I'm always amazed though how similar his voice is to that of Elliott Smith. Diffident styles, similar feelings.
@DavidHallermusic13 жыл бұрын
@klarolivia Oh shit, I said it wrong, she's Janet Weiss from Quasi (I though it was Maria because of the Cassadaga era and this shows...). So, Jane Weiss is a very great drummer, just see in Quasi, Quasi really really rocks. Sorry for the failure.

Sorry if this has been asked, but does anyone have any idea as to why Conor looks over at Welch prior to her vocal parts? It is, in a way, obvious, fitting, and all together proper that he would do this, but it seems as though he is reminding her of when she is supposed to start. Any idea? Thanks.

@Musicmaster182 not true at all. the last time he refers to was road to joy inwich he gives conor respect only. also, letterman has had them on many times and he had them play when the president talks to god when bush was in office and it was relivent and very dramatic. i dont think that performance is still on here but if it is you should watch it.
