A new song post! It’s Bright Eyes’ Road to Joy

Conor Orberst

Well, once again, A Sound Interest has seen a serious delay between posts. Meh, so what.

I’m in London now, and today’s song has always reminded me of being in a big city (New York first and foremost, to be honest, but London a close second). This is a great one (hopefully you’ll recognise a trend here…) from Bright Eyes. The band is headed by Conor Oberst, who is very good at words. You’ll probably recognise the melody from Beethoven’s Ode To Joy.

As I often stress in these posts, you’ll do well to catch the lyrics. Good poetry right there.

Here you go – enjoy.
