Bright Eyes - My Two Favorite Songs

Image
Conor Oberst and Bright Eyes have a lot of cool music but to cut to the chase I have two favorite songs that are always on my current playlist, Waste of Paint and Bowl of Oranges.   Although I mentioned  Waste of Paint first it should in no way suggest that I think that it is better (or worse) than the other song.   I love these two songs equally, like two kids.   I don't even think of them separately.    For me they are simply "those two Bright Eyes' songs that I love".       Mr. Oberst's has been quite prolific and I find a lot of his other songs interesting as well but with so much music out there and so little time to investigate things it is hard to keep up with everything.    So if you are not familiar with these songs I strongly suggest you take a listen.   Also,  if anyone has any personal favorites by Bright Eyes/Conor Oberst  I would love to get your recommendations.   EXTRA SPECIAL BONUS: I ran into this video while looking for video links on

No More Kings - Sweep The Leg Johnny

This is a very funny song and the video is hilarious.   A bunch of people from original movie appear in the video, including the guy who played Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) and the bad guy Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka).  On a related note, if you are into The Karate Kid you might enjoy a complete preliminary filming of the movie which is available on YouTube.   It´s the whole movie done in rehearsal.   Very cool for those who  just can´t get enough of the original classic film.   Enjoy.

Here is a little song I wrote out about religion.    I believe 100% in freedom of religion for everyone.    As long as they don´t expect ME to follow THEIR  religious beliefs  everything is cool.

ALCOHOL - He´s in love with the thing I hate

This is one of my favorite songs about substance abuse.     It really conveys to me  the sadness that is addiction and how it tears apart not only the addict but those around  him or her. So far this is the only song from Miss Labrie that has caught my attention.  If anyone knows of any other especially cool songs that she has please leave a comment.
