    I started off with Bright Eyes and have loved Conor's lyrics and voice for many years. I have seen him live too many times to mention. I found Phoebe in Santa Barbara when she opened for The National. Fell in love with her voice and lyrics. It was bliss to hear Conor on her album! 'These two sound amazing together. They are so talented. They look like they are in love! It's cute how they just stare at each other in the interview. Great album!

      @@kelseahelmick9778 Yeah I was going to say.. Conor has cemented himself as a legend in the industry. He's up there with Bob Dylan in my book. A younger (though talented) artist, is of course going to look up to him and hang on to his words as scripture if you will. They are no doubt learning a lot from each other but I can't help but think Phoebe is still floating on cloud nine because of this opportunity.

    The parallels to the movie "A Star Is Born" are uncanny. You have an older male artist who teams up with a much younger female, collaborates & goes on tour with her. He's depressed & has a plethora of issues. She's an up and coming artist who continually gets more popular & out shines him. The only piece missing is that they aren't dating.
