Conor Oberst Interview (Full Video)

[@TP_Gillz]

Those remake songs they did, ARE PURE FIRE. I just came across them a few weeks ago, and good lord. Saved my life. This dude always saves my life, till it gets so broken and EFFED up again, then hopefully he drops something new n gives me a reason to stick around. TY CONOR for being real dude, you could have phoned ANY of your records in, and u didn't. Tim doesn't either, new Cursive record is FIRE too. STICK AROUND CONOR. Dont u effing ever leave us. GDIT.

[@MaryRowen]

Haven't listened to all of this yet, but really enjoying so far. Do want to say that I was at the Digital Ash show in Providence and it was great. I loved all of it and so did my husband. Definitely an under-appreciated record at the time.

[@TP_Gillz]

Conor is the most punk rock, folk rock music maker in history, dude lives it

[@waakkeuppp]

Such an authentic conversation about the things I actually care about. Thank you for this.

[@AftertheDeluge]

Yo I appreciate that. Felt that way to me in the moment and I hoped it would for others as well.

[@Jeremy-y4o]

Its all there....that's why we love conor....because he's pure expression.and it's universal.his song writing style is in my opinion is the best of many generations.love you Conor ❤️❤️

[@yajy4501]

Conor Oberst and Josh Ritter’s lyrics are what keep me going these days haha

[@DanielStillMusic]

Conor is a good dude. Great conversation. Thanks.

[@frisco9936]

Awesome interview! I’m a huge bright eyes fan, great to hear from Conor.

[@JaymePaladino]

Thanks for posting it again Justin ♥️🔥 Love you Conor.

[@AftertheDeluge]

I knew I'd eventually get this one posted but I had to go in and manually sync up the audio and video every like 15 seconds because the connection was so brutal. Not perfect but not too bad! Thanks Jayme!

[@JaymePaladino]

I love having it! You work so hard to put this out and I appreciate all of it. I've already listened to the clips but i need to hear Conor talk so it's good. He's my bedtime talker

[@blinkaholik]

When he says at the end - shes too smart for her own good ❤

[@AftertheDeluge]

Very wholesome moment there at the end with Petra the smart dog.

[@groundedextracts]

Wonderful interview thank you!

[@AftertheDeluge]

Appreciate ya listening!

[@PalaceMidasMusic]

It's so cool, and fitting, that Oberst started off making these DIY lo=fi recordings in his music, but only recently has the opportunity come to kind of match this in his interviews with the access to internet content levelling the playing field. He is better suited to a podcast nterview than any kind of music article sin the past could do justice to, well done. And also, fair play to Connor for doing it, because your "lo=fi" setup is so in line with the album formats he created. Writing about birds is cool.

[@AftertheDeluge]

I love that too. I chose to believe it was poetic that both of us had such horrendous connection. Honestly the only reason it's legible at all is that we both hit record on our iPhones and set them on the table so that the audio was captures separately without the connectivity issues. Anyways thanks and LO FI FOR LIFE.

[@prancing_pansy]

it feels oddly vindicative to hear conor say mcr is a great band, as someone who's been an obsessive fan of both for so long. maybe phoebe bridgers helped him come around? i remember gerard (singer in mcr) calling conor oberst one of his favourite songwriters some 15 years ago, so I think the respect is mutual :D great interview, thanks for putting it out there!

[@sammy-whirl8500]

The friend that I first saw bright eyes with...loves mcr.

[@femme.camouflee]

Hi there! I've been following you for a while. Love your in depth questions, you have a gift. Thanks for sharing, I'm a huge BE fan and love your content.

[@AftertheDeluge]

Hey that's really nice. Thanks for listening and for taking the time to share that. Should have a new BE ep as this new record hits!

[@Scouser930]

Thank you so much, Justin! You’re doing god’s work, Man

[@AftertheDeluge]

You got it!

[@TiagoNuremberg]

This guy is a treasure. ❤

Calling BTS 'PMS' is real

[@mheberling5939]

Interesting interview. Nice job!

[@skellvarnsen23]

I named my 🐈‍⬛ Conor, he’s 13❤

[@mikewifak]

This interview was great. I wish I never watched it. I think it can be detrimental to what makes music special to me when I think about it too deeply for too long. It’s like seeing behind the curtain. I’m gonna go drink away this memory now.

[@smileychrisraps]

Great interview

[@AftertheDeluge]

Thanks!

[@Natty183]

The next man I have sex with is going to not only enjoy Bright Eyes, but he can understand Bright Eyes and doesn't have to ask anyone else to create meaning for him, lyrics or otherwise. And he's going to be 44 and we'll get each other's references, and he's going to enjoy traveling, and we're going to talk with our minds. And this is my intention. God, I hope it works!!!

[@sammy-whirl8500]

I fucking love down in the weeds.

[@JaymePaladino]

I'm probably supposed to ask before I remix your videos but I meant it to be helpful. I had to backup/redo everything recently and I don't know what I'm doing. I'm not a jerk, if that is exploitative or something 🤔. I only started posting things a couple months ago. You can block me ♥️

[@AftertheDeluge]

No worries, all good!

[@cstar4004]

I would love to meet Conor. Everything he wrote happened to me. We sing alike and even look alike. Its weird. Goddammit, Conor.

[@melburn74]

It's so refreshing to see someone smoking....there are still people out there who haven't bent the knee to our do-gooder overlords....

[@moxyangel]

Except that he’s suffering from alcoholism… that’s not rebellion

Smoking is lame. “Ooh look I’m cool bc I smoke ciggies”

Possibly fucked up his vocals. They canceled the tour. I smoke
