Bright Eye's CD "I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning" is an odd CD to categorize. There are moments that are intimate, moments that are raucous. Themes around personal thoughts, private actions, and public protests are woven into and out of many tracks. Emmy Lou Harris guests with back-up vocals on three songs...it's really a rather fascinated enterprise.
