| Bright Eyes – When the President Talks to God Lyrics

i love conor's music, but i think i speak for the lot of us who dont like this song by saying conor is capable of better. i dont mind the political undertones of the new albums (particularly im wide awake) because they are subtle and intelligent. This song is full of sensationalist propaganda that just makes me sigh. |

| Bright Eyes – Light Pollution Lyrics

In in extraordinary amount of press Conor has gotten lately, alot of the reviews of Digital Ash mention this song. They say this song is about the death of a friend in a car crash. I dont think think tragedy of a car crash is the topic of this song. It's more along the lines of his Desaparecidos work, with the metaphor of the car crash signifying the rising above the struggle of American capitalism and consumerism. The struggle hits its climax as the character is driving past the seemingly wretched classic american landscape of flags and baseball games, and disappears into somekind of restful peace.
Also, it may be a bit of a stretch but the line of "fucking with the radio" for some reason didnt strike me at first as a car radio, but like some kind of rabid lashing out against American capitalism in form of the god awful trash that gets played on the radio. |

I like his voice more on the early stuff more than their new stuff, it seems that on their new album he tries to make his voice sound like he's in pain. I guess hes trying to develop an original sound. |

Pure TGUK magic as far as I'm concerned. Midwestern Indie Rock was never so true to its roots. Such a good song, if you've never heard it, give it a chance after the first listen; it will grow on you. |

"I feel like being down doesn't mean enough to anyone anymore
and I guess the world has made emotion obsolete
and I don't think I feel the same 'cause after all
who says what happy really means?"
These are the words of a 16 yr old? wow thats intense. |

Chris demonstrates again his great songwriting abilities. The weird thing about saves the day is that 3 of their best songs dont appear on their albums. Art of Misplacing Firearms, Drag in D Flat, Sell My Old Clothes Im Off To Heaven. |

Guernica was a small market town in WWII that was relentlessly bombed by the Nazis for no apparent militiary reason other than to demonstrate their power...Great song, I was surprised by the cool drum intro. |
