That's funny. I usually loooooooove whiney, depressing drivel, but this isn't doing it for me.  Of course, I can't stand Conor Oberst's voice, and that's a major factor in my dislike. The music seems better to me than other crap of his I've heard.

Bright Eyes is sometimes called Dylan's successor.  Come on, really? 

As an aside, does anyone remember when he did the big FU to George Bush on I think it was Leno?

A lot of saturation, very bad MP3

Whiney, depressing drivel, IMHO.

I got “I’m Wide Awake, It’s Morning” and “Digital Ash in a Digital Urn” releases after reading this article in the new yorker. It turns out that Bright Eyes is basically one kid. The article did a good job peaking my interest, and I like the two albums a lot. I don't think this song is particularly representative of the music, but I can't say that I don't like it.

is this the same bright eyes that i always hear and cringe at? or a different one? hmm. i'm not cringing at this one.

I recently read a rave review of a Bright Eyes show and was looking forward to checking out their music, as I hadn't ever heard it. now I have heard a couple of songs and I really disliked them both...

The songs I hear from this group keep grabbing my attention. They seem to have an interesting approach.

I really like this. Would like to here more. A 7 for now but very possibly an 8.

EDIT: Yeh, definetly an 8.
