I must say its repetitive, but imho its balanced by the folky funk / slight tinge of a jazzy feel mixed with orchestrated goodness, a combination I have yet to find elsewhere nowadays. I can't say his voice is one of my favorites, but it works with this song. The spirit he speaks of in his lyrics is real and alive by the way. Not many modern bands can say that truly. Well done.
@PlomChallenges Dude, I didn't make the comments for likes. I went to school in Jacksonville, IL and moved away from there last week. It was a merely sentimental comment made for my own benefit.
What a beautiul song! I just love this so much and it's provided me with hours of joy. My son and I put this on while driving and sing along. Thank you Sufjan Stevens! This is an awesome disc!
Well you can't help but feel that you have a somewhat enlightened taste if you here is tedious rap music all day erry day. I'm sure if you grew up in the suburbs it would be a little different.
@terrachan Yeah but there's a limit. I'm sure you can understand that and... You caught me... I'm a country boy so I probably wouldn't know as well as you
It is in bad taste's to be extremely excessive with anything for that matter, and I would absolutely justify in the notion of looking somewhat poorly on a person's character in such a case.
@jellybean262 how the hell does it work? he coulda been taking a shit with a camera in his hand. my retarded brother Bilo could of made a more creative fan video.
PS-this isnt trolling because i stumbled upon this due to the wonderful music of Sufjan:)
