okay, the comparisons to Bob Dylan and Billy Bragg are ridiculous,a nd this is coming from a fan of Bright Eyes, i think that Dylan had a massive influence over music at that time that Conor will never achieve. and comparing the two is a bit wanky, theyr very different. but all this stereotyping of the type of people who listen to his music, i know plenty of guys who are bright eyes fans. and yes, he is melodramatic,a nd he tends to be on the whiney side, but you cannot deny that he is a brilliant songwriter lyrically.
