One of my favorite songs of all time… sweet, beautiful, and memory invoking.

@ren @renwillis love when that piano goes up a scale slowly in flint, some of the piano keys are broken/not hitting correctly. Very fitting for such a haunting song.
Even when he pivoted to some electronic music, like with I Walked, it still felt fragile https://youtu.be/25OC3m5QdYY
@renwillis @ren totally agree, I was just listening to “I walked” the other day and thought the exact same thing.
@renwillis @ren Have you listened to Nicholas Krgovich before? He may not be as whimsical as Sufjan is at times, but, has a certain fragile (but somehow still fun-sounding) songwriting nature I find similar.
Great album! Sufjan can make some really beautiful music
@Psychlops sweet, tender, thoughtful music. <3
My wife used to listen to this album alllll the time. It’s very nostalgic to me.
I first heard this awesome song in the movie Little Miss Sunshine.
@GreatLake_Tadpole wonderful movie!
Check out Sufjan’s Christmas album. I play it every year now, right next to Trans Siberian Orchestra.
@HarkMahlberg @alternativenation not big on xmas, personally, but that’s wonderful that something hits so good for you!
The first song my daughter sang with me… love it!
@draneceusrex awwww!
