Conor Oberst Who has heard of this guy? Can anyone tell me something more about his music? He is getting good reviews.
I only heard Bright Eyes. |

I know this won't help...but I'm just as curious. I think I'm just going to buy "I'm Awake, It's Morning" or "It's Morning, I'm Awake"- whatever it is. I hope I'm not dissappointed  If you have to ask, it's more than worth it. | |

I am listening to some radio performances right now...
I do not own any album by an artist with a voice like his....I normally go for female voices. So I have to get used to this... |

I don't have a whole lot of female artists I enjoy, except Bjork- maybe Madonna, Janet Jackson, Kimya Dawson, Deelite...oh, I thought of some more: Lauren Hill, Saint Etienne, Erika Badu....hmm, but the male artists/vocalists I have too many to name.

With me it is the other way around. Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Bjork, Kate Bush, PJ Harvey, Tori Amos. Just to name a few. I do not think that many gifted R&B singers deliver songs that grow old nicely... |

I don't know much, but I love the song "Sinnerman"...and you just named a few more that I like  I just don't have them (except for Bjork) in my music collection. I RESPECT them for their talent, I guess.If you have to ask, it's more than worth it. | |

I was talking about my own particular addiction. hey, at least it's a healthy one...except on your bank account I am trying to build my CD collection up again. A guy who was helping me move once put one of my boxes of CDs in the back of his minivan & didn't secure the back door down- so the whole box fell out  I swear it was at least $500 worth of music gone. Needless to say I was depressed for a while. At least most of what was lost is replaceable. I've had friends who've had their collections stolen that have been rarities and out of print cds  If you have to ask, it's more than worth it. | |
