It does come down to a matter of taste, doesn't it?
Evidently apparent in this thread.
I really want to get my hands on his earlier work [like when he was 14 or thereabouts] anyone know where? Or if it even exists!
His talent is in his songwriting, definitely. I like his voice too- even IF he sounds like a whiny goat.
Music isnt all about the voice- it's about the feeling. And damn, do Bright Eyes make me feel.
[cue standard 'yeah Bright Eyes make me feel angry/like i want to kill Oberst etc etc' response]
Yes, I said that one professional recording artist with good songwriting and poor vocal talent reminded me of another professional recording artist with good songwriting and poor vocal talent. What a travesty.
no, you compared conor oberst to bob dylan. is what you did.
yeah, thats how i interpreted it.Actually I said "He reminds me of Bob Dylan in that way". THAT way referring to the earlier comment made about how conor's song writing is great but he isn't a talented vocalist.
...is what i did.
