Beautiful poetry
by: kelshideaway (1809Feedback is 1,000 to 4,999) Review created: 02/08/06

I love that Bright Eyes’ songs feel like poetry put to music. I liken it to Bob Dylan in that the words are meaningful and not just fluff that society is so used to now. However, I think it is a required taste and you are either a Bright Eyes fan forever, or your not. If you love them, then you’ll really love this album, it’s one of the best.

great record

Now one of my favorite records by Bright Eyes. I love that Emmylou sings vocals on a few songs. I also love the whole vibe of the record.

I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning
by: jodyj54 (25Feedback is 10 to 49) Review created: 06/05/07

I had listened to Bright Eyes prior to buying this CD, but not much, this is the first Bright Eyes CD I purchased. I have had this CD for 5 or 6 weeks...I have listened to it over and over, this collection of songs makes me laugh, cry and think. Favorite tracks: Lua, Another Travelin' Song, Land Locked Blues and Poision Oak. I love it...I am now a confirmed, full-fledged Bright Eyes fan.

THIS CD CHANGED MY LIFE
by: aberdare4 (21Feedback is 10 to 49) Review created: 09/29/06

From the first chords of "I'm Wide Awake and it's Morning" to the very end of the last song... I was in a complete state of wonder. It's beautiful and melodious and at the same time, filled with geat desperation. I cried when I listened to "Land Locked Blues" and "Lua" for the first time. It's just a great CD, with every song adding a layer of beauty and sadness and frustration to the story. Bright Eyes clearly isn't for everyone - Connor's music is very much acquired, as it is for a specific listener - but I think that anyone could appreciate it. If you're already a fan - this is undoubtedly the best CD, and if you've never even heard of Bright Eyes... well, give them a chance.

One of Conner's Best
by: dsl133 (2) Review created: 07/23/06

This is one of Conner's best album's. At least three really great songs on the CD including: "Landlocked Blues" and "Road to Joy". If your a Bright Eyes fan or just enjoy good poetry, this is the album for you.
