“Mystery of Love” by Sufjan Stevens from the Call Me By Your Name Soundtrack 

"The mystery of love is greater than the mystery of death" - Oscar Wilde

i just want to spend my summer in an italian villa in crema and listen to sufjan stevens while reading a good book out in the warm sun

i don’t even know how I feel, I feel warm and safe and happy listening to this but I also feel like crying at the same time

This movie is the summer holiday that most of us have never had ...

I regret watching this movie, because no movie has ever left me feeling this way. I feel empty, heartbroken, and lost as if there’s something missing. This movie is a masterpiece and I can’t help but cry thinking about Elio and Oliver

This song makes me nostalgic for a love that I never had and I place I never visited. It’s been 3 weeks and I cannot stop thinking about this movie it has left something in me that’s unexplainable.

In an alternate universe, Timothée Chalamet and Sufjan Stevens are enjoying their more than deserved Academy Award.

This song is magical. The feeling that this pure art gives is speechless.

this song is the best thing that has happened in this damned decade

This is the purest movie I've ever watched. Heartbroken.

“Nature has its cunning ways of finding our weakest spots” always gets me

The entire cast was remarkably perfect in each of their roles. This is a movie you fall into, float around in, go deep, and don't want to come out again.

So I was at an art museum when this statue reminded me of a scene in the trailer of CMBYN. I was listening to Mystery of Love last night and there were lyrics that said "Like Hephastion who died, Alexander's lover." So I did some research. Apparently, there are historians who believe Alexander the Great was in love with at least two men; one being Hephastion. I dug deeper and there was a person who mistaked Hephastion for Alexander and Hephastion said that he too, was Alexander. Which brings me back to the scene where Oliver tells Elio to "call me by your name and I'll call you by mine."

The hardest thing is that I can’t bring myself to cry, though it’s all I want to do

Y'all this song deserved an oscar.

"Oliver, why are you engaged in spring" "Because summer is used to miss you, elio."

Call Me By Your Name signifies the highest love. A love built on the admiration for the one you love. A love so deep that you wish you were them. That you love and admire everything about them that you will take their name in honor of them. In the hetero culture, I believe women do this when they take their husband's last name with the honor of their love. But there is no higher form of flattery when Oliver desires to be called Elio because Elio is the kind of person he’d like to be. He loves him so much that he wants to be Elio and wants to feel what it’s like for Elio to call him and share his name. How deep a love.

This song smells like lazy summer late afternoons in some place in north Italy, with the soft hint of fragrances of peaches and apricots. The blurry view of olives shrubs under the sun with the fresh smell of water sparkling in the horizon..

Why Am I a teenager in North of Italy but I'm not living this kind of love😭😭 I actually live by the Lake of Garda, where they go to find the statue underwater... *tregua?* Edit: I've found my summer fling , just like this movie🥺couldn't have been more happier

I was born in Italy and moved to Brazil when I was 7, when I watched this movie I realized that it was filmed in the town that I was born...it reminds me of how much I love Italy and how much I miss it, this movie is truly a masterpiece

This movie literally broke me .

Why do I keep coming back to everything related to this movie knowing that it's going to hurt me? This song is just perfect. OSCAR!!!

still can’t quite get over how this movie broke me

I’m making it a tradition for me to watch this at least once every summer

Because of the movie and the soundtrack by Sufjan Stevens.. i am officially gay and depressed.

This story is so universal that it doesn't matter if you are straight gay or anything else, you will feel bad, sad and you will cry seeing this movie. I think it makes people understand that love is love and that gay people love as straight people do, no differences. Two boys (or two girls) can make love, hope about being together all their life, can be silly and happy as fuck on the open air, can cry freely because one left, as much as a boy and a girl do in a relationship. What i find amazing about his movie is exactly this, everything looks normal and natural, not forced to prove a point, but still the message reaches everyone, because everyone knows that at least once in life will feel (or already felt) the same as Oliver and Elio did. Thank you Luca, Armie, Timothée, André and everyone that had their heart set to make this story so pure, i think that is what the world needed

Friendly update: Yes, almost a year after i first saw this masterpiece, i still watch the music videos and the movie is still there in my mind. This movie gets under your skin, almost literally. It really is one of the most beautiful movies i have ever seen, and it is also one of the movies of my freaking life. I swear...

This movie has left me all heartbroken and I'm a happily married woman...Discovering Armie's major scandal last month even made me more heartbroken bc we might not even see a sequel to this movie.

Watching this film has made me realize how sporadic things are and how important it is to enjoy things in the moment. It is such a true and pure love story. Everyone should see this film, honestly.

came here after we got ROBBED at the oscars

i watched the movie on new years eve at 10 pm, and the first thing i did in 2018 was cry. A great start!

You know. I met a girl. About three to four years ago. We were complete opposites and honestly didn’t belong with one another. But her impact on my life was so deep it still haunts me to this day. She took me to watch this movie on Valentine’s Day…after the movie was done I sat in silence and didn’t really know how to feel. I wasn’t mature enough at the time to process. I was very broken at the time and I didn’t even know. If you ever come across this AM; thank you. You changed my life. I’m sorry I hurt you.. I didn’t mean to and I regret it everyday.

The father was a perfect mixture of Robin Williams and Joaquin Phoenix.

This movie is so good, ive never watched a better romantic movie. Their love feels so authentic and real. I cried so hard felt so much while watching this...

He said I remember everything. Then.... He got married. Love is so complicated. Feelings are so special.

Probably the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard 😢❤️

This better win Best Original Song.

Now, drag Sufjan to late night shows to perform Mystery of Love and Vision of Gideon. He needs a good campaign for the Oscar. He was robbed at Golden Globe!

Call me by your name was honestly the most calming movie I’ve ever seen, and the soundtrack was a huge part of that

This song and this movie talk about a so deep connection between two human beings that, even when it ended and we were left in pieces, we feel grateful for having the opportunity of experiencing something so true. It makes me cry every time, also

this is what should be trending, not some logan paul nonsense

If this doesn't win the Oscar for best song, we fucking riot

You know what makes this movie special is the fact that it's relatable to everyone. Like gay or straight it really was crafted in a way that made it so relatable and it shows the devastating and all consuming affect of love. I cried for half an hour after and it was an honour to be so broken by this movie.

I come back here five years after watching that movie, and nothing, NOTHING has changed! I still love him, he still makes me happy, anxious, alive, feverish and dreamy.

GUYS CAN YOU BELIVE WE’RE HUMANS AND WE GET TO EXPERIENCE ALL THESE EMOTIONS???

i watched this movie the other night and i literally cannot believe how beautiful it is. like maybe the most affecting piece of art i have ever seen.

The oscars should have known better

I rewatched this yesterday and it felt so good at first, but after I finished it I was like, "why do I do this to myself? ". Its so good that every time I watch this it leaves me feeling empty, sad and so broken.

This song really brought the trailer to the next level.

WE 👏 DID 👏 NOT 👏 EXPECT 👏 A 👏 MUSIC 👏 VIDEO THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

I watched this film a few nights ago and it is literally all I have been able to think about since. It moved me beyond belief and this song as well as Visions of Gideon at the end completely enhanced the raw emotion throughout the whole film. Timothee grasped the obsessive, vulnerability of falling in love for the first time, while Armie showed how desperate Oliver was to be as carefree about it as Elio, but having something holding him back (probably his parents/societies disapproval). Acting was astonishing in this film, the music was perfect for it. I'm also 100% biased as I have been a diehard Sufjan fan for over 10 years now 😂 I thank the world for this film.

Oliver: call me by hannibal lecter and I call you my dinner

cries in gay

My heart is broken. The best film I've ever watched.

Elio elio elio elio.....Oliver.... I remember everything.

Oh to see without my eyes🕳👄🕳

We watched Sufjan perform live in Toronto a decade ago, and it was the most beautiful, moving concert I’ve ever been to. I still listen to Sufjan to this day, and squee with excitement whenever a new song of his comes out.

How does Sufjan Stevens produce such musical masterpieces time and time again!? Everything he touches seems to turn into gold. Thank you so much for this beauty.

I cannot get this stupid movie out of my head

The most beautiful song I’ve ever heard and will ever hear in my lifetime.

everyone should look up the definition of pedophilia and then actually read the fucking book and actually watch the fucking movie.. Then you will know how ridiculous your argument is. anyway this video is gorgeous and I'm so glad this story exists.

_Because I wanted you to know. Because I wanted you to know. Because I wanted you to know._

I've been in this weird melancholic trance ever since I watched this movie 1 WEEK AGO.

I WISH i HAD A SUMMER LIKE THAT IN MY YOUTH!

I don't know if watching this film was a good idea, actually. I mean, I loved the movie, it was great and it's now my favorite. But at the same time, I feel like I should have not watched it, it created this sort of endless sorrow in me, I'm not really liking it. I know i should be more mature, but really, I hope with all my heart that the sequel won't be the same as the one in the book, okay that it's like selling themselves just because of the fans, but this is not a stupid movie, CMBYN is on a different level. It's art, majestic art like Greek statues which look down on you, because you can't and you won't reach their level of beauty.

this movie is proof that love is love, no matter what. no one has the right to tell you "what" love is, no one has the right to tell you "who" love is, and no one has the right to tell you that the love you feel is "wrong", because it's your job to find the meaning of love...that's the mystery.

I wished I lived somewhere in northern Italy in the 80’s..

Condolences to Sufjan on losing his partner and friend

My heart...its so hard to watch It without that weird feeling in your stomach

I watched this movie on a really long flight earlier this year....had no clue it was going to evoke such strong emotions from me. I uncontrollably sobbed so much I got weird looks from the people sitting around me. I then landed in a different country and had my own experience with a temporary lover who very well might be my soulmate. He moved on but I still like to watch this as it reminds me of us deeply in love with one another running through fields and forestry feeling the pure unadulterated joy of a child in one another's presence. I will love him forever, and I have this song to remind me of us.

- I love this Oliver. - What? - Everything..

I am a straight man, this is my favorite film, and I’m tired of being criticized for that!

I don’t even want to watch another movie, because I know that nothing will ever top this.

"how much sorrow can I take?" - me after watching cmbyn SOMEONE GIVE SUFJAN AN OSCAR OR I WILL ATTACK

I’m thankful that I live in a time where beautiful books, films and music like everything related to CMBYN, with topics that are uncomfortable to some, are being appreciated and people are able to enjoy them openly. I pray that I will experience love as intimate and strong as the one between Elio and Oliver! Best of luck to the whole crew during the award season!

I was in Italy in May of 1983. This film really captures the atmosphere of that time and place.

everytime i hear this song i just break into tears

I CANT get over this movie at all. It wasn’t what I was expecting, it was something so much deeper. UUGHXBDJDBDH its changed so many things for me. I feel like im trying to get over a break up, and its useless and pointless and Im going to be stuck with this deep sadness in my heart. All I can do is ‘SSSSIIIIGGGGGGHHHHHH’

i watched this movie 2 weeks ago and i still think about it every day

Almost 7-8 yrs back I met a boy , we were good frnds , but then we got into relationship,I was so young ,naive and arrogant,he loved me ,I tried but cudnt ,i didn't know better, expectations grew on one side ,i got colder on another side , I hurt him ,we broke up it's been almost 5 yrs ,I wish to meet him n apologize, but fear i don't deserve forgiveness and don't want to disturb that kind man's life again ,I m sorry that I was not kinder , not understanding ur perspective, I m sorry u liked a girl who doesnt know hw to trust others ,I m sorry u met me ,I m sorry that u overestimated my worth ,

Future Oscar winner Souljam Stevens

The book hurt me more because it's describing everything, sad asf. It even goes into detail about the ending

Just give him the oscar

i can feel freshness, and sadness at the same time listening to this

ok people, I think that now we can speack of a "call me by your name syndrome". All those who have seen the film, whether heterosexual or gay, show high emotional states in which they recognize the traits of their lives in the scenes of the film and live them as if they were happening again ...... breaking your heart

i keep watching CMBYN related videos and it hurts every time. this movie has emotionally wrecked me in the most beautiful way possible.

Elio elio elio elio ... oliver oliver oliver ...... i remember everything

This movie makes you fall in love with LOVE... if that makes sense

Cant believe Luca did not get nominated for Best Director. What a snub!

Why everything from "Call me By your name" IS SOOO GOOD? MOVIE, BOOK AND THIS SONG ARE SO MUCH PERFECTT ❤️❤️❤️

Still can’t get enough of this song and this movie! Pure masterpieces that touches my heart again and again. ❤

Some kind of nostalgia I've never experienced.

I can't get over this movie...

This movie. It dares me to come back each day desiring to watch more things related to it. It transports me to my happy place but breaks my heart at the same time.I never thought that i could ever love a movie to this extent.But then again its not just a movie,its a beautiful piece that completes your maze of life.

The beauty of this album by Sufjan Stevens is how it traverses the entire arc of the relationship shared by Elio and Oliver. Mystery of Love opens with "The First time that you kissed me" and Visions of Gideon ends with "And I have kissed you for the last time" . The connection established over here reflects the journey that they had. I doubt if this is a coincidence. Rather, it is certainly not.

This song makes me feel so bittersweet, I start crying every time. It reminds me so much of my first and only love. She ended up with a man, but she taught me what love was meant to be. I miss her all the time. She's still my closest friend but there's always our past looming in the air. This book got me right where it hurts. I've never connected to a piece of literature more.

man every shot of this Movie is like piece of art

Best movie of the year tbh

Stop reading this comment and actually watch this masterpiece of a video

the film was amazing, but the book really changed my life
