Sufjan Stevens-Romulus

[perkeleentero]

very muc so! thank you!

[MayaScylar]

I can't sing this song without crying. I've never really been through anything like that.. but the lyrics are very powerful. I am convinced this is about his own life. I don't usually get choked up over nothing.

[Frisbieinstein]

If you would see a beautiful penninsula

Look around you

Look around you

[PINGPRAWNS]

I love this.

[versitilegentile]

I live on Lake Michigan near Grand Haven. I am proud.

[vintagecarjunk]

yep now i really miss living in petoskey and traverse city. i was born in ann arbor and grew up near romulus. this is the most nostalgic album ever.

[justpeace17]

Yes, I'm crying.

[pianooo4447]

I love this song! Please check out my piano cover of this on my channel. :)

[paigenacage]

I cant seem to figure out why his sad music makes me so happy. I cant do anything but smile at this.

[xGhost4000x]

Less than a million views? There is no justice...

[deej0259]

We saw her once last fall

Our grandpa died in a hospital gown

She didn't seem to care

She smoked in her room and colored her hair.

I was ashamed, I was ashamed (of her)....

[ryguy2k7]

I don't know what it is about this song, but it really puts me in a weird trance.

[countxthexshadowsx]

Pandora is my savior <33 (:

[crazypotatoman17]

I'm not a hipster

[MiaowMeoww]

@crazypotatoman17 Ahahahahahaha. Convincing!

[WhenICanIWill]

@crazypotatoman17 The anti-hipster is the new hipster

ahahahaahahha

[Jusala12]

@WhenICanIWill Naw, that's too mainstream. haha

[sorenkierkegaard2008]

Sandy, for you, but forgive me, Laurie. I pray someone breaks the spell before you're dead. I don't believe it, but I believe in miracles. I'm sorry, Laurie. I hope you can be free, too.

[ShareYourUnderwear]

This is about my mom, it seems.

[jessierbearbait]

having an alcoholic mom, this definitely hits home for my own reasons.

[STAYplatinumx]

this is amazing,

[vincentwilsonbsc]

Haunting

[TheMastakilla4201]

Damn. Damn. Damn.

[PrincessVoldemort]

I started to cry. This song is so sad, yet beautiful.

[retrohippie]

It's kind of a shame that the 12" i've owned of Michigan doesn't have the banjo in the song "Romulus" :/

[zdiddydaman2]

Wow

[LivingBreathingArt]

this song just reminds me of the upper peninsula of michigian. the lakes, and the woods. its a the most beautiful place in the world.

[ShareYourUnderwear]

This is my absolute favorite Sufjan song. It doesn't get more emotional for me than this right here. It is my childhood in a nutshell.

[kurtwthiele]

@mgb0017 fuck off, sweet

[Gibboentertainment]

[fillXinXblankXstares]

[jackw7154]

[sweetiepieflybc]

Is this song of Romulus, MI?

[1carp]

And I thought Casimir Pulaski Day was the saddest song I'd ever heard.

[juliaisafilmbuff123]

:,)

[shhmellshlikeasshhhh]

God I wish I had money to go to his concert ):

[WillingToPooNvm]

[gillianorwoll]

Such a good song.

[gillianorwoll]

Beautiful.

[what0a0dum0name]

this music is great to listen to while driving around in the UP in Michigan, really great experience.

[rawrziethezombie]

This makes me want to move to Michigan. Going there for vacation in a couple of weeks! Yay! I dislike Indiana. :/

[mrkababman]

Great song. What an artist

[TheLumberjackHero]

This is so wonderful, but it guts me every time I listen to it. I'm not sure why...but in a way it's alright.

[odfronia]

od dziś kocham Sufjan Stevens.

i czuję, że z każdym dniem będę kochać bardziej.

[yayaguy123]

one person is a durp

[topgirl999]

this song really hits home.. describes my mother to a tee..

[saigeellen]

loooove it.

about his motherr or a mother who was never there.

[miawallacexx]

sufjan said in an interview this was written about an abortion...Romulus, the title, came from the city where there was a big abortion rally or something. question is, who had the abortion?

[TayBay934]

@miawallacexx No he didn't. This song has nothing to do with abortion, and I haven't been able to find anything proving otherwise.

[Red43Dog]

If I listen to that musik i feel very Good

[sharkyand]

Si eu care credeam ca e melodia de la bautura Romulus ... Thumbs up toti care v'ati luat tzeapa :)

[bananaboarder1216]

I sure am glad to live in michigan, he puts it all to words perfectly...

[FishiesAreTheBest]

@bananaboarder1216 He truly does. I'm from Michigan too, and knowing that Sufjan is as well.. just gives me the chills[:

[Kenzie112496]

If beautiful had a sound, this surely would be it. -3

[Thenoobs410]

This reminds me of Iron and Wine. VERY, very good.

Such a pretty tune.

[recalljessica]

Ah, Michigan.

[kylethewookie]

This song just put me to tears thinking about all of my experiences in Michigan. Sufjan and I actually went to the same high school in Michigan.

[ibaHumor]

@kylethewookie Wow, really? That is really incredible. ^^;

[1marksy1]

@kylethewookie What was he like Kyle? As in personality, musical genious, social status. As well as pure curiosity, I am doing a school music assignment on him and this info would be much appreciated :). Have a great day! =P

[wwwillady]
