Bright Eyes, N. A crappy overrated band fronted by the supposedly "deep" Conor Oberst. Commonly mistaken as one of the greastest indie singer songwriters, but this title is already occupied by people such as Elliott Smith and Jeff Mangum,along with others but Oberst isn't. But he does reconize talent as he's signed the wonderful band Tilly and the Wall.
Bright Eyes Fan: Oh my god, I love his lyrics there so good and like, deep you know?
Me: No, his lyrics are about as deep as a toilet bowl.

Straight Guy: "I'm not talking about that pansy, I'm talking about the epic Blind Guardian song...fag"
