Wow! That's awesome, I saw the title and I clicked over to see if you had just randomly thought of the title, or if you were a Bright Eyes fan. Lover I Don't Have to Love is an awesome song, and this is really good. I love it! Great job!

Wow that's really really nice! I thought at first it was done with some kind of stippling technique, but the lyrics are just brilliant! So concrete-poem like, it's beautiful and ingenius. I don't know of the artist or his work but wow you really did a nice job with it. I suppose you could draw a picture in lyrics of any artist as long as you can decide on the actual figure that would fit the mood. Awesome!

Major congrats on the DD. It's such a beautiful piece, and very fresh; it deserves all praises coming to it.
Looks like I have quite a bit of listening to do now. I've not heard of Bright Eyes until now.

That's beautiful! And I like your handwriting, haha.
It reminds me of this project that I did awhile ago (the finished version has "Bowl of Oranges" pasted behind it a whole ton).
(and I'm not trying to shamlessly self-promote here, I saw you on the DD and was like "Woah, similarity!").
The concept of this is just awesome
Out of curiosity, are the lyrics grouped by color, or do they go in lines? (like, where lines cross through dark/medium/light, is it all the same lyric, or do the lyrics change with the colors?)

Ooh~ I remember doing something like this in art class once, though it was much more simple, like making a hand out of the word 'hand'. XD That pales in comparison to this, it's simply amazing.

yeees, i think they do make up his head. that's why i thought it was so appropriate to draw it this way. It just wouldn't do to draw his face without his words.

Conor = love. I only wish I could read which lyrics you chose!!
Maybe I recommend "The Calendar Hung Itself" -- it's off an older Bright Eyes album called Fevers and Mirrors, and it's probably the eeriest but most beautiful heartbreak songs I've ever heard!
Definitely a

cloudsfall In reply to melmel [2004-10-21 23:24:57 +0000 UTC]
thanks! the lyrics can be read here: [link]
They are from the album "Lifted"
I've loved the calendar hung itself for ever. it was the first Bright Eyes song I ever heard and it is probably my favorite. he is a genius.

melmel In reply to cloudsfall [2004-10-22 04:23:28 +0000 UTC]
"LIFTED or the story is in the soil, keep your ear to the ground" may possibly be the longest album title EVER.... XD
I had a photomanip I did of Conor with some lyrics from "The Calendar Hung Itself", but since I'm using his picture "unofficially", I can't post it to DA.
