I realize that. I'm talking about the morons who say Bright Eyes is emo. I personally think a band isn't 'emo' unless they declare it themselves. But you do have to admit, it does fit the stereotype. Not to mention Bright Eyes has a HUGE emo fanbase.

EDIT@Shlup: What song?
Stylistically? No, I haven't ever heard an emo band that has a sound similar to Bright Eyes. Lyrical content? Probably. I would agree with you there. Which would better explain the emo fanbase.

That's just my take on it anyway.
