Because he's an adult now. Listen to anything pre Lifted and he's an off pitch sqeaky little teenager again.

I know he is an off pitch squeaky little teenager, but i can't help but feel attatched to some of those songs. Not because they're great but because I associate them with this certain part of my teenage years that they helped me through. It's weird

Bright Eyes, Bright Eyes, Bright Eyes

I have been listening to them for the 4 years and they never fail to amaze me. I love Conor's voice. I really get to listen to each word that he says and he's just so amazing, in my opinion.

Some of my favorite Bright Eyes songs are:

Make A Plan To Love Me
Drunk Kid Catholic
Bowl of Oranges
We Are Nowhere and It's Now

What are other people's Bright Eyes favourites?

I find them to be whiny and pretentious.

What can I say? Bright Eyes is my all time favorite band. Conor gets to me like no other musician I have ever musically digested. Fevers and Mirrors to me is his most emotional album, as well as his best. Though Im Wide Awake, It's Morning is my favorite. I hope that makes sense, and my apologies if it does not. His lyrics. The way his voice cracks and cringes. Beautiful. Has anyone heard anything new about his (Bright Eyes) upcoming album?

Most of my friends don't like Bright Eyes because of Conor's voice, which lets be honest is understandable. I'm a fan because he is a gifted song writer and unlike most musicians these days, his songs actually have meaning to him. He doesn't make music to sell records or get in on the radio.

I have 6 of his albums (Digital Ash, Cassadaga, Four Winds, Noise Floor, Lifted and Wide Awake) and my favorites are Digital Ash and I'm Wide Awake.
