They’ll have all kinds of “a person this tall and right-handed struck the fatal blow” evidence on you anyway.

It doesn’t matter how much is there. Not your mom, not the cat. It’s not that the police are dumb.

They just have a lot to do. Now, don't get me wrong. I have considered Radiohead my favorite band for a long time, but lately, I’m just coming to terms with the fact that Conor has written almost all of my favorite music and it’s always palatable - I never get sick of listening to his work over and over.

And word to the wise: if you build an awesome killer ninja robot to be your accomplice, then you will have to take the whole thing apart after the murder is done and then hide all the bloody pieces. In yet another song, he puts aside the simple pleasures of springtime to take political burdens upon himself, recognizing those societal responsibilities of participation that we each share (whether one agrees with his politics or not).

You might be wanting to hide the body by cutting off the head, feet and hands and removing any distinguishing marks on the skin. They are always self aware, self critical, and, many times, self referential. “This guy uses a lot of plastic and is always buying shovels all the time.” Bad idea. Anyway, it’s way more fun to kill your parents, who probably screwed you up way worse than any relationship person. But anyway, who you gonna believe? This is something that Elliott Smith speaks about in several interviews: Elliott never wanted to be considered a "sadsack". Let’s say you do. He clearly wants nothing more than to love life as fully as possible...And it seems like that might be part of where his sadness arises from.

Josh Rouse. Tee hee". But I love owing large corporations money and never paying them. When no progress is forthcoming they squish down like a jack-o’-lantern after Halloween.

But...not Oberst. They’ll always go with The Evidence. They aren’t. The cover was originally recorded to give Reid another song for live performances, but the creators of Dumb and Dumber approached the band about including it on the film's soundtrack. [4] Reid said of the song, "It's about a person when they try to do good in the world, but people turn against them. I flipped shit when that record came out. And he seems to be aware of and dislike his own "whininess". A tempting strategy, but completely the wrong way to go. His music never resonated much with me and it’s hard to explain why. I agree with you on 1, but not completely on 2. That kind of thing. He is a songwriter and a poet who fits in much better within the domain of artists such as Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, Elliott Smith, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, and Tom Waits than the vast majority of "sadboi" artists that I have seen him compared to.

"The Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead" is a song written by Andy Partridge of XTC for their 1992 album Nonsuch. You’ll know if they have any leads on you, because they’ll be following you around and bothering you and all your friends.

Also, "emo" still pops up in just about every single review/article/interview about one of Oberst's projects. When I was a teenager someone made me an emo mix and it had A Perfect Sonnet on it, which was rad and fit in with the rest of the pre-MCR emo like Something Corporate. Maybe you would really enjoy wringing his skinny Brooklyn neck. B. It's kinda the same thing as with Death cab: being emo requires having roots in punk. But, over time, that perception seems to have shifted quite a bit. My point, however, has more to do with how his music is understood ("a good emotional guitar dude who i loved when i was younger but i grew out of that phase" vs. "top tier songwriter that will be remembered as one of the greats") than it does with the popularity of his music.

It wasn't until listening to "Wide Awake", however, that I started to see Conor as a true songwriter through and through. The Kennedy reference is also made explicit by the image of a pig with a map of Cuba superimposed on it—a clear reference to the 1961 Bay of Pigs Invasion.

The uniforms, maybe. Yes, absolutely.

I'm not trying to detract from your overall post, just thought the opposite viewpoint was worth commenting for the sake of this discussion. The lyrics "Peter Pumpkinhead was too good; Had him nailed to a chunk of wood" reinforce this crucifixion reference. As much as I will always, always, always be blown away by how goddamn emotionally visceral Fevers & Mirrors is, Conor was still definitely maturing. Would I say that I respect them as musicians?

Because I am not. While I admit that this is speculative and that there is no way to know this for sure, I firmly and emphatically believe that, had Ruminations been released by somebody who was more "in vogue", it would have received at least 4/5 stars. In trying to eliminate evidence you will probably leave more evidence and then you will be in a lot of trouble. People on juries watch nothing but “CSI” shows. You beat him to death with an iPad and now there won’t be any more sprawling family angst novels from Mr. Don’t accumulate witnesses or conspirators.

I like UPS delivery people, too. You should probably avoid even making eye contact with anyone while you’re thinking about the murder.

That handsome, horrible dude everyone loves when only you know he is a complete fraud who must be exposed.

In addition, the uncensored video makes brief reference to Jesus Christ by flashing the words "three nails" and showing a crown of thorns. I think that Conor himself realized the bottle of lightning that was "I'm Wide Awake", too. And “vengeance is mine” sayeth the Lord. My point, however, has more to do with how his music is understood ("a good emotional guitar dude who i loved when i was younger but i grew out of that phase" vs. "top tier songwriter that will be remembered as one of the greats") than it does with the popularity of his music. It's a process of aging. Actually, … "Fevers" surprised the shit out of me when I first listened to it on headphones. Because they’ll blackmail you and stuff; people are such creeps. And then go get donuts. The boss cop goes, “How’s that Jim Behrle murder coming along?” And the cop on the case is like “Half the city wanted that guy dead. As for your second point: everybody loves themselves some Conor Oberst. Fight the real enemy. Jonathan Franzen. It was sad and angry and dramatic. It is of note that during the last verse of the uncensored video, there are shots of evidence bags marked with the tags "X" (possibly a reference to Malcolm X), "R" (possibly a reference to Robert F. Kennedy) and (together) "J" and "F".
