I think i just tripped ~_~ ohh wait, I dont remember smoking a spliff... AAhhh!! That's what Sufjan Stevens can do to you... Who needs them intoxications when you got such beautiful music! =_=

Pity that this track wouldn't fit in one video at the time you uploaded this. Have you considered re-uploading now that they've relaxed their size restrictions a bit?

Thanks so much for posting -- I love Sufjan, and this is my favourite album of his!

@qu1et Sure! I have to upload something other than Billboard chart videos anyway :)

That guy is totally genius!!!!!!!!

[PenaltyKillah]

@missdeinas Yes yes... I thought the great Sufjan only made folksy indie songs until I heard about this. These tracks also make for good exercise music, oddly enough...

@PenaltyKillah

He does way more than just folksy stuff and this. If you check out his bio on his label (Asthmatic Kitty records) you can see just how much he's done. One of my favorites is sixteen tracks of songs he wrote and arranged for some symphony- he was even commissioned by a city to do so. He's my new favorite songwriter. :)

@TheDancingSaxophone Yup, the symphony one is the strings remake of this album! "Run Rabbit Run"

@PenaltyKillah Actually, the Osso quartet did the arrangement of the album... At least wikipedia says that.
