Conor Oberst’s<\/strong><\/a> outstanding new album Upside Down Mountain<\/strong><\/em> has wormed its way into our ears and won’t desist<\/a>.\u00a0 This morning on CBS This Morning<\/strong> Oberst<\/strong> was interviewed and performed three songs off the new album, including a solo performance of one of the most talked-about tracks on the new album, You Are Your Mother’s Child.\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0<\/strong>The song is a coming of age song (timed perfectly for graduation season) that’s been dubbed an update of Harry Chapin’s<\/strong> classic (maudlin) Cat’s In The Cradle<\/strong><\/em><\/a>.\u00a0 Oberst sings in the role of a contrite father, proud of his kid’s accomplishments despite his own shortcomings as a father.\u00a0 “I definitely struggled with whether to put that one on the record,” Oberst told Billboard<\/i> magazine. “It has more sentimentality to it than any of the other songs, but I’ve seen a lot of friends go through that stuff. [Having kids] would be a cool thing to do someday. I don’t particularly feel ready for it right now, but I guess no one ever does.”<\/p>\n

After, check out the phenomenal album opener, Time Forgot<\/strong><\/em> (a web-exclusive), and Hundreds of Ways<\/strong><\/em>, on which the dynamic Dawes<\/strong><\/a> provided stentorian support.<\/p>\n
