The great Connor // Jackson Browne debate.



So, once upon a time, TKMommy and I were watching "Spin the Bottle", and TKMommy goes: "That boy looks like Jackson Browne."

And "Late For The Sky" went wha? And Connor went huh?


'Cause of course, when I think Jackson Browne, I think:

this . . . But TKMommy, naturally, thinks this . . . Which possibly, maybe, *could* bear resemblance to this.


It's the hair!

But what about the rest? Look:
Connor sings . . . Hey, whaddya know! Jackson Browne sings. You see drawings of Connor on the covers of publications . . . And drawings of young Jackson Browne on publications!


Connor's gonna shoot you! And young!Browne would totally grapple hook your ass. Connor packs heat. Uh . . . Mr. Fountain Of Sorrow looks considerably more happy about packing heat.


They sit . . . Or stand, I guess . . . With skinny long lanky bodies that look like rags . . . tied together with knots. And they wear emo clothes.


Or else they wear . . . The exact same shirt!

That one may have been cheating a bit, because that was VK, not in Connor costume, but WHATEVER.

VK still makes me think of . . .
Young!Browne. But it still might just be the hair.
This is just here because it's hot.


I'm firmly of the belief that looking at too many pictures of VK will keel you ded.

Next week:

Connor lips vs. . . . Snow White's lips. While we figure out just how much Illyria . . . Looks like this bug.


Yes. I did just spend way longer on that than I should've. But I wanna KNOW.

OK, so, discuss. VK and/or Connor vs. young Jackson Browne.

Vs. Angel and Warren Zevon as accompaniments. Gogogogogo!

OMG. That's why I liked Connor so much.
I was a huge Jackson Browne fan when Jackson and I were both younger and prettier...it's like deja vue!

You also like Connor so much because VK is a genius, and because Connor never got a chance at the thing called life, and because he has an instinctive love of GOOD but doesn't know what good is, or love is, and he is alone and afraid and confused, and when you see what he is when he *does* have a chance, he's so very beautiful, and not just in his face. *sigh*

I love Jackson Browne!

and heh, thanks.

That really sums up this character, in just a few words.

It's why I fell in love with him.

They are the same person! (I saw Mr. Browne onstage about a year ago and he still looks the same with his emo hair and clothes.)

The big question is does Connor also cause people to commit suicide? Because Jackson sure does.

Connor totally does: Darla.

That . . . makes me sad.

That's right!

Proof positive - whiny self centered emo boys cause suicide amongst women.

They really are the same person.
