| Conor Oberst – Hundreds of Ways Lyrics | 11 years ago |
| Nah, it's not literal. The actor is himself as a touring performer and recording artist. As an adult, he's had few opportunities to be something other than singer/songwriter Conor Oberst, former wunderkind. His efforts have made him famous, but he has grown. He started as a confessional songwriter trying to bare it all, but in many ways he's grown past what made him famous and there's no way for him (or anyone) to fit that growth on a successful LP. He probably still meets people on occasion who mistake him for a troubled teen who needs a hug and a hobby. I think he's probably proud (as he should be) of his career and the attention he gets, but he feels a need to demonstrate his humility. Just my take. It could just as easily be autograph seekers wearing Spiderman costumes. | |
