Happy Birthday, Conor Oberst! May your day be brighter than Bright Eyes' most heartfelt lyrics and more memorable than the first time we all heard "First Day of My Life." Your music has been our emotional soundtrack through life's ups, downs, and existential crises—thanks for making melancholy sound so good!From captivating us with poetic storytelling to inspiring countless indie playlists worldwide, you've truly mastered turning introspection into timeless art. Here's hoping this year brings you as much joy as you've given fans everywhere—and maybe fewer sad songs (but honestly—we love those too). Cheers to another brilliant chapter ahead!
