15 years ago today, my first girlfriend sent me a bright eyes song during our break up. Since then you guys have had a special place, new trends come and go, my music taste changes, but never bright eyes. I listened to you before I carried my best friends coffin, I listened to you before the first dates, after failures and happy endings. I listened to you in the times i needed help, and i kept listening when i got better. You guys mean the world to me.
Must be a thing. My collage girl friend who was a hard core punk loved bright eyes. She left the world on that rainbow overpass. I fell in love with landlocked blues due to that. Now I am just a fan of all. :)
this new album is exactly what i needed. i grew up on y’all’s music, my dad loved bright eyes and all of conor’s projects in general. he was supposed to take me and my sister to see yall in april 2022 but he passed away a month before we were supposed to go, we still went and took our grandma and his siblings and it was such a beautiful experience. i got presale tix for y’all’s tour for this album and am gonna surprise my sister with a ticket for her birthday! i just wanted to say thank you guys for being one of the only bands i can listen to anytime, regardless of where i’m at in life. my music taste may change through the years, but i always come back to bright eyes. yall have been such a big influence and inspiration for me throughout my life. love the new songs 🎲❤
Love this track… Definitely one of my top 3 songs off the new album which to me, is incredible! Hearing it lifted my spirits… It’s comforting to know that there’s others in this world rejecting the current state of affairs taking place in our country. While Musk doesn’t deserve a mention in their songs… I’m glad he included that lyric. This is a bit of a different album for BE’s but it's just what we needed imo, both content wise and sonically. I love everyone he brought in to contribute on the album and they made their presence felt. While this track with Cat Power is a top 3 song, for me, from the album, interestingly, the song with Matt B from The National is also a top 3 fav from the album… So my point is, again, Conor picked the right folks to be a part of this album. Lastly, I’m wishing Conor well and certainly sending positivity and much love. The world can weigh on you no doubt, I’m no stranger to that, so I’m rooting for Conor all the way!
Thank you❤ you have been such a staple in my emotional development, since I was 13 falling for my first love to now at 28 making another big life transition, it felt like I was meant to hear this today. Also this is an amazing collaboration I love you both so much, please make more music together.
Conor, you totally amazed me. To hear your voice and Cat Power in one song is a dream come true for me, and right before first listening I thought to myself that it would be cool to hear Cat Power in one of the songs on this new album (I'm not kidding). And here it is. You and Bright Eyes mean the world to me for the last 15 years. Love from Poland, Europe. Please record more! ❤🎲
What year is this???? Bright eyes AND CAT POWER!? Literally the best thing I could have come across tonight. So happy to see you're both producing music
This & Rainbow Overpass have such aesthetically unique MVs, & are beautiful songs themselves. Thank you so much for the decades of great music, Bright Eyes 🧡
So happy to hear the new tunes. Thank you, Conor. You've helped me thru hell with your heavenly lyrical and musical content. Been listening for almost 20 years. Hoping to see you in april 😀
Hello, if anyone knows Conor or the band personally, I created a fan music video for Lime Tree, one of my personal favorites of all time. I wanted to share it with you guys, it made me emotional. I titled it: Olive Tree: Ode to Life - Bright Eyes Fan Video ☮️✌️❤❤❤❤❤
p.s. This song is great, and my bro and I already got tickets for one of your shows coming up in Santa Ana CA at The Observatory in Jan 2025, we're mega excited. I grew up listening to you guys and never stopped. You're an inspiration for people trying to find their way through this crazy world. ❤
I was a little afraid this was gonna be too much (two very idiosyncratic vocalists playing on top of one another) but this might be my fav of the new BE stuff. I think they nail the harmonic dynamics when they have to and even when they don’t technically mirror each other, their personalities both manage to shine in that special & charming way that many great vocal collabs between two strong personalities can at their best. Kudos
Tomorrow is going to be a new day and today will be laying on some forsaken floor like a used condom, fucked, treacherous is the past and future fighting over your present. ,dan’

I'm not really sure who I would be today without Bright Eyes. Thanks for giving me a safe place to be who I was and who I am🤍
Who are you?
You’re exactly who you’re supposed to be
Imagining what my teenage self who spent hours in my room listening to Bright Eyes and Cat Power would think about when hearing this song. ❤
thanks for everything conor. a lot of us have our own yellow bird too. love you man
Your lyrics have been the voice in my head for 22 years 🖤
"you'd think after 22 years you'd be used to the spin" ❤

Best track on the album
My favorite Oberst project will always be Bright Eyes.

Bright eyes is my Revolution, my awakening, my revival ever since 1998
the universe composed this song for me 🔥

Life remains doable only as long as BE are keeping it up. And thanks for introducing Cat Power. Godly one.

Who wrote this for you Yesh David Allen or whoever wrote song ❤ sjr
Uh oh, Elon mentioned. You know what that means…. Elons gonna buy Bright Eyes’ AND Cat Powers’ entire catalogues.
It is “that I already fought?” Right? I keep seeing a bunch of lyrics “they already fought”
if anyone has the record and the lyrics are in there I’d appreciate it…
damn.

Like a spell
why wasn't this the first single?
WTF AHHHH SLAY YAAAS

opinion: elon musk's not worthy of being mentioned on a bright eyes song.
Man liberals only know how to talk about what they hate and can’t just enjoy things

Guy lost his damn mind. It’s a shame. Trump broke a lot of people.
Fuck. He did.
Meh. This isn't lyrically as impactful as the Bright Eyes of the past. Pretty disappointing.
Sucks
Garbage
Ur garbage
