Starting off with my most cherished, my *unfinished* Bright Eyes collection. Conor Oberst is my biggest musical inspiration and the first musician I ever got into. His lyrics are pretty much my bible and without his art I wouldn’t be who I am today. top to bottom:- Fevers and Mirrors (1999) I consider this album to be my all time favorite. This was the first record I owned (given by my cousin), the first album I ever felt that feeling in your gut over. It’s a masterpiece through and through *sparing you of the gory details for now*- Every Day and Every Night (1999)Purchased at Amoeba LA, so glad to have found it. All 5 songs are great. Listen to A Perfect Sonnet when you’re mad at love- I’m Wide Awake, It’s Morning (2005)The most iconic intro ever“We’re going to a party! It.. It’s a birthday party. It’s your birthday party! Happy birthday darling, we love you very, very, very, very, very, very, very much.”- Digital Ash in a Digital Urn (2005)Easy. Lucky. Free. is definitely the most underrated single from him - Noise Floor (Rarities: 1998-2005)Amy in the White Coat is the only song (until discovering Your Fathers Eyes by Marching Church) that I genuinely sob over when I hear it. It hits deep. DEEP. - The People’s Key (2011)Given to me yet again by my cousin, probably the coolest gatefold/trifold in an album I own. Best last album ever. -- source link
