Love was once a part, but now it's disappeared.

i came upon this, which i wrote the other night at my dad's when i was bored. all i was thinking about was some book i had to read for sophomore English.

that book SUCKS. just like Bright Eyes. oh my God. why is nobody noticing that Bright Eyes suck? i mean, first no one knew who they were, and that was okay, because they were just a little-known "band" from Omaha. except it's ONE PERSON. he couldn't just keep his own name and make shitty music? he had to corrupt a Shirley Temple movie about an old man?

seriously, if you are one person, you do not get to take a name that could be used for a whole band. ESPECIALLY one that clearly indicates more than one band member. i mean, if he called himself "Bright Eye" it would be okay because that would be fucking hilarious. he would sound like an old fortune teller, an old fortune teller who could change into an owl at will, and i would play his shitty tunes all the time, and cackle like a nefarious sea-dog. but it's not like that at all.

Bright Eyes (by which i mean ONE PERSON NAMED CONOR OBERST) is coming around here soon, and from the way people are talking about it, you'd think he was Elvis. Elvis at least had the sense to stick to his damn name. he didn't call himself "On The Good Ship Lollipop." and that's why he's the King and Bright Eyes just sucks.

there's more, but it's just inflammatory.

...as opposed to the above, which is sound and well-supported.
