I'd disagree with some Bright Eyes.

I think it's folk for the most part.

There are folk elements but I'd still say that there are emo parts too.

Enough wit hthe shitty parody threads.

lol come on

It's not a parody. I'm not trying to be funny I'm trying to talk about a misconception that is pretty common.

lol

this isn't a parody thread duh

an attempt to tip the scales

some of my fav. lyrics.. check this shit

Did you expect it all to stop
At the wave of your hand?
Like the sun’s just gonna drop,
If it’s night you demand.
Well, in the dark we’re just air,
So the house might dissolve.
Once we’re gone, who’s gonna care
If we were ever here at all?
Well, summer’s gonna come.
It’s gonna cloud our eyes again.
No need to focus when there’s
Nothing that's worth seeing.
So we trade for liquor for blood,
In an attempt to tip the scales.
I think you lost what you loved
In that mess of details.
They seemed so important at the time
Now you can’t even recall
Any names, faces, or lines;
It’s more the feeling of it all.
Well, winter’s gonna end,
I’m gonna clean these veins again.
So close to dying that I finally can start living.

then there's that mock interview that's crazy

these are two of my favs though

Anchormen spike their blood
wear masks of mud
cucumbers cut to fit their eyes
and so no one would know how tired they've grown
of talking and telling their lies
while your TVs change stations
scroll messages
victims and christians both drinking blood
and they pray for the destruction of all hatred
more often, just those with hate for us
'cause it hurts when you discover one's worse and one's better
to suffer or cause others to
and you can live by your conscience
now guilt is a concept
you're no longer subscribing to

There's a virgin in my bed
and she's taking off her dress
And I'm not sure what I am gonna do
There's a song stuck in my head
and I can't help singing it
O' how I hope my singing pleases you
'cause this is not who I've become
but what you made me into

Oh, we got no health insurance
no cellular service
no disease they can't cure
but we need more money to burn
so each person must learn the dollar amount they are worth
and your pills make me dizzy
forgetting my body
I watch as it walks away
I just keep drinking the poison
and smoking the cartons
a pack and a half a day
so when time comes to claim me
my friends and my family will gather around my grave
and they'll believe that they knew me
and love me and miss me
and all call me by my name

So imagine what you want
and then hold on to that thought
'cause that's as close as it will ever come
and believe you're where you are
and keep acting out the part
but at the end of the day, the trees all get wheeled away
and you'll be standing alone in a blank, blank space
So believe who you are
and stay in character.
but at the end of the play,
the audience walks away.
And you'll be shivering cold on a well lit stage.

the lyrics on the second are self explanatory

i couldnt believe that big bear pic was real, but sure enough it is. the cover is real and the cd is for sale on amazon.

Clox. I don't think its a message board you are looking for. Blogs are where you post whatever bollocks is in your head, and it doesn't get in the way of other people conversing.

Why don't you give Myspace blogging a go. I'm sure it would get a million hitssssssssss.
