    If I had to choose one artist to listen to for the rest of my life, Conor is the one.

      I’m relatively new to Connor have known his music for a long time but have really only been listening to him a lot over the last few months but he is amazing would deff put him in my 4 favorite song writers as far as musicians that are around today not including like John Lennon or Jim Morrison but for me my top 4 are the following in no particular order
      Connor
      Jesse Lacey ( Brand New)
      Aaron Weiss ( mewithoutyou)
      Chris Connelly ( Saves The Day)

      Loki John I posed a question that had within it absolutely no intention of offending the aesthetic sensibilities of anyone.
      If (as I hope ) you've mis-interpreted the subtext, I promise you this - there was none.

    • @takeshelter5313

      Ryan Ortega sorry man thought you were implying he ripped this song off

      It's cool, Man. Misunderstandings abound on UA-cam - take, as an example, my being unsure as to how I should take your 2nd Comment.
      Peace, Man.

    Order an Old Fashioned with a splash of Grand Marnier
    I'll be there in ten minutes if you'll stay
    I don't wanna argue, but I got to tell you straight
    And better if it happens face to face
    They're looking for you, brother, they keep stopping by the house
    They're waiting at my work when I get out
    What do you think would happen if they'd followed me here now
    Do you really think they'd let it go?
    Well judging by your silence, the answer's no
    It's not true, Matthew, no it's nothing like before
    They know exactly where you're gonna be
    In that presidential suite up on the thirty-seventh floor
    With your feet propped up, watching the TV
    With a tray of food you're never gonna eat
    And some shit excuse that no one would believe
    In that empty hotel by the sea
    Now when it's over I'll be talking to your grave
    You might as well hear what I'll say
    I can't forgive you and I'll never sing your praise
    Why'd you always have to get your way?
    Now you're a legend to those sick Neanderthals
    The ones who count the bullet holes
    Can't help admiring the splatter on the walls
    Like cherry blossoms in the spring
    Oh, it's a thing of beauty 'til it gets cleaned
    It's not true, Matthew, no it's nothing like before
    They know exactly where you're gonna be
    In that presidential suite up on the thirty-seventh floor
    With a blindfold on, trying to fall asleep
    While your rental car's on fire in the street
    And the snowflakes falling softly on the beach
    In that empty hotel by the sea
    Oh, it's
    It's not true, Matthew, no it's wouldn't be like before
    They know exactly where you're bound to be
    In that presidential suite up on the thirty-seventh floor
    With your fingers broken, picking up your teeth
    With the realization you were in too deep
    With some final words that no one will repeat
    While the snow's still falling softly on the beach
    In that empty hotel by the sea
