Lyric discussion by jrm 

First of all, I know this is old but “Fevers and Mirrors” is still a classic in my book - one of my absolute favorites. I still listen to it often. This fake interview is genius and always makes me laugh. It is pretty refreshing after such a dark, heavy, emotional album.

After the interviewer says, “You’re from Nebraska, right?” Conor says, “Yeah, sure.” Instead of “Yeah, that’s right.”

Also I swear right after Conor says, “Do you feel that?” He kinda whispers something. It’s hard to discern because of the loud background noise and also Conor tends to mumble and trail off a lot, but the best I can make of it is “You want to dance?” Before the interviewer says, “No, I’m feeling sick.” Am I the only one hearing something like this??

Last, I have to mention that I’ve also heard people say that it’s not really Conor but someone pretending to be him, well I have been to MANY Bright Eyes shows as well as his solo/other projects and that is absolutely 100% his voice. If you’ve ever heard him speak in person there’s really no mistaking his voice. Certainly not (sorry forget his name) from The Faint. I also love that band and had the honor of going to both Bright Eyes

@jrm ...shows they played two nights in a row many years ago in my city and no...just no. Conor’s voice is pretty distinctive.
