A beautiful, 25-minute journey of a song. Takes up an entire side of the LP.
25 minutes might sound daunting or unnecessary but it never once feels that way.

I love when you can tell that an album is something special right out the gate. After eight (!) years of experimentation post Carrie & Lowell it feels like he's returning to his quite & intimate roots once again.
I remember being in college when Carrie & Lowell came out, back when I was sponging up decades of classics and listening to anything Pitchfork told me to. Obviously a little cringe to look back on, but I think it's actually good to have that phase at some point. Just don't stay that way forever. Find your shit.
This is the type of music I normally reach for- something sparse and a bit sad- and I like that Sufjan adds these euphoric moments of instrumentation to break up the record & make it feel less intensely sad.

Quick little album rec.
Such a beautiful and well-crafted album that reflects on life and loss with all around great music. I feel like Sufjan is one of those artists that kinda flies under the radar, but truly has one of the best artist discographies. And it’s a fairly short album so you have no excuse not to listen <3

One of my favorite albums of all time. Every song on this album is excellent and it only affirmed my deep crush on Sufjan Stevens.

it’s nice to have a forced walk in the morning before work and it’s not really of shame if you’re in love
