What if Sufjan had followed Illinois with an album that featured this, Barn Owl, Majesty Snowbird, The Lord God BIrd.... It would have been his masterpiece, because in all honesty he has never been so sublime as on the songs that date from just after his most famous release.
i love sufjan stevens!

Well, he did put out "Barn Owl". But, yeah, I need this thing as a studio recording.

Not one released to the public. It's on an album that he recorded before "A Sun Came." It's a reworked version of an old song.

He's become a hell of a composer hasn't he? I wonder if he would ever consider doing a movie score? Fuck, he's amazing.

Yeah, but the movie will not be released.Right ?
I hope it will.But I think that Sufjan plays music live while there is the movie on the screen.Isn't it ?
The song is beautiful, the string part is great !
