Carrie and Lowell is my most played album till date. Used to be a diehard metalhead. Sufjan made me an explorer. In my case he made me embrace beauty in simple things I listen to. Should have know better is even better here...

@witchassbitch3 7 лет назад

Should've known better was the first Sufjan song I heard, and that pushed me down the rabbit hole that is indie folk music that is incredibly sad yet so pretty you don't realize how sad it is until you look at the lyrics. It's beautifully bittersweet.

@samitpaudel7886 7 лет назад

Ella yes lots of gems, though some are blatantly sad like the new Mount Eerie album. Take a listen to it its so miserably beautiful. Been stuck on that album.. When you said incredibly sad and beautiful, the notwist song pick up the phone immediately came to my mind. Check it out if you haven't.

@seriouscatisserious 7 лет назад

Word. I just listened to a Ghost album, and am following up with this after watching it a few times over that past couple weeks.

@testgoober193 7 лет назад

Being exposed to his music does that. Suddenly music isn't about boxes and rules anymore. About Carrie&Lowell, it can never be my most played album, because it absolutely wrecks me every time. I don't want to break apart every day. It's still one of the most beautiful records I have ever heard, no question about that. I'll save it for "special occasions".

@reillychoma7248 2 года назад

You should really check out For Emma, Forever Ago by Bon Iver. It’s so emotionally raw and sounds like pure pain to me. The way I see the album is kind of like the stages of grief, starting from depression, angst, regret, you name it, and ending with Re: Stacks, which, to me, is acceptance; and one of the best songs ever written in my opinion. In short, For Emma, Forever Ago and Carrie & Lowell have very a similar feel and make me emotional every time I hear them.

@DrOli Год назад

Give Mount Eerie's - A Crow Looked At Me a go. It's more towards unfiltered grief than conventionally done, but absolutely worth a listen.

She may have been the only person in the world who truly understood me. She was my superhero and left me due to cancer, completing a devastating year of loss which included the miscarriage of my first child. Life is not fair, but it can be awfully beautiful at times. This album helps a grown man peel away the calluses and cry. Thank you, Sufjan, for sharing your broken heart. I feel less alone when I hear your music.

My dad passed away two weeks ago due to long-term health complications. It was late at night as I sat a few meters away from his coffin mourning him with one of my aunts. I played Death with Dignity and Should've known better on repeat. I was somehow relieved he was gone because I knew how much he suffered. However, in his own words, my 5-year-old and only niece, "kept me alive all these years". I stared at the "amethyst and flowers on the table", I got what Sufjan felt when writing "is it real or a fable". "my brother had a daughter, the beauty that she brings, illumination".

@sabgha 7 лет назад

Sufjan Stevens is among the artists I'd like to see live before I die, I mean seriously I can put his songs on loop for the rest of my life and not get tired of them, ever! Was very obsessed with him last year and thought it might have clouded my judgment a bit, but hell no! A year later and "Carrie & Lowell" is still my fave to this day. I've recommended this to many of my (Persian) friends and no matter what their taste in music is (Rock, Metal, Traditional Persian music, etc.) they've all fallen in love with this genius artist. Lots of love and respect from Iran

@lucid8r 9 месяцев назад

There's a tiktok trend going around called "Sufjan Stevens Summer", And It was most probably started by someone who watched CMBYN for the first time and liked Mystery of Love and Visions of Gideon, I've got nothing against them and I'm happy they got introduced to Sufjan through a very beautiful movie, but those who have listened to Sufjan's other works excluding CMBYN, know that he isn't summer at all. For me, this live version specially is Fall music. When Fall rises I get ready with Bon Iver and Sufjan Stevens, which are IMO top 2 indie folk artists that have ever lived.

@tangentyes3323 3 года назад

Hearing Fourth of July after my father passed in 2020 really changed my perspective on it. It’s a sad song, but at the end when he’s repeating we’re all gonna die, for some reason it brought me comfort. Knowing that my loss isn’t something I’m alone in, everyone feels that at some point, and there is a comfort in knowing everyone will experience that loss, and be the subject of that loss to others as well.

Fourth of July is one of the greatest sad songs ever written. Man I wish I could have seen Sufjan live during this period. Can't believe it's been over 7 years since this show!

@camillazonta2336 5 лет назад

I have this need to thank him personally for his music, he's so AMAZING

They pulled off every single nuance of that album...LIVE! I was hypnotized. Unreal.

This album came out the year my mom passed. I wanted to see Sufjan live but it was just a month after when he came to my city. I couldn't do it as I would've been a wreck in the audience. I am so grateful he had this live show filmed so I can watch it on my own. The entire album is so beautiful.

@patientzero5685 9 месяцев назад

I’m sorry you lost your mom. In a way I feel like I’ve lost mine. She’s a shell of what she once was. This album perfectly captures the tortured love between parents and children, appearances, expectations, regrets… ugh. Beautiful. Really, this live performance is perfection EXCEPT THOSE FU¢KING ADS. Exce

Don't really know how to put into words how much this album means to me. I didn't even know who Sufjan was until a month ago, but when I heard C&L it was like a gut punch. This performance was amazing and wild and gorgeous and spectacular and emotional and all the other adjectives. Thank you Sufjan and company for this. Truly.

I lost one of my best friends to suicide a year ago, and this album is such a comfortable place for me to put the intensity of how much i miss him and to understand that i unfortunately could not have saved him, and that i have to carry on, even though it is hard af. thank you, Sufjan.

When he came to Bass Concert Hall in Austin during this tour, I went to both shows. Two of my favorite memories. Never been to a show like it. I'm glad I could see it sitting down, in a concert hall with a perfect view. It made the performance so much more meaningful. He was free to perform the set like it was a rehearsed piece of theater. Knowing the subject matter of Carrie & Lowell, I was moved to tears multiple times by the astonishing intimacy he was able to share with the audience. My plus one for the second night, who had no background on Sufjan, cried her eyes out

seen literally hundreds of gigs in my five+ decades and Sufjan blew them ALL away with this one from this C+L tour. Saw him in Portland at Schnitz and was moved to tears for the entire night, watching it here it is happening again. God bless you genius + thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

If never get a chance to see him live, this is a good version to get the feeling for how he is live; haunting, hypnotic, beautiful, soulful, geniues

@shirataka8331 Год назад

Sufjan, you aren't merely an artist, you are a shaman and a healer. You're the voice reminding us that we are human, that we are delicate and beautiful. You accompanied me into the heart of my grief when my father died, into a place even my closest loved ones could not follow. I will always be grateful to you.

44 isn't dead. I don't think I got my shit together until I was in my late 20s. (as much as one ever does that is. haha) i'm amazed he's only 44 with this much depth in his soul.

The live album is better than the original, though the original is already a masterpiece. It says a lot about how Sufjan is a gift to humanity.

@jabezproduction 7 месяцев назад

I've watched this show a few times...and it's fucking amazing. What is it bout Sufjan? Obviously he's a talented old stick...but what gets me...what stops me in my tracks, is his ability to trail blaze and lead the way with taking us, as listeners, on a journey, that transcends so much of the routine way of doing life. For years now, I've considered him a 'gate way' artist - somebody who provides permission - and a pathway for others to follow...how to find peace in chaos and to reassess our understanding of beauty. And it's beautifully exampled here in real time with this show. Sufjan..I don't fully understand where you came from and how you continue to be...but I'm so pleased that's the case...because you've made the journey that bit easier...thank you.

The evil it spread like a fever ahead It was night when you died, my firefly What could I have said to raise you from the dead? Oh could I be the sky on the Fourth of July? "Well you do enough talk My little hawk, why do you cry? Tell me what did you learn from the Tillamook burn? Or the Fourth of July? We're all gonna die" Sitting at the bed with the halo at your head Was it all a disguise, like Junior High Where everything was fiction, future, and prediction Now, where am I? My fading supply "Did you get enough love, my little dove Why do you cry? And I'm sorry I left, but it was for the best Though it never felt right My little Versailles" The hospital asked should the body be cast Before I say goodbye, my star in the sky Such a funny thought to wrap you up in cloth Do you find it all right, my dragonfly? "Shall we look at the moon, my little loon Why do you cry? Make the most of your life, while it is rife While it is light Well you do enough talk My little hawk, why do you cry? Tell me what did you learn from the Tillamook burn? Or the Fourth of July? We're all gonna die" We're all gonna die We're all gonna die We're all gonna die We're all gonna die We're all gonna die We're all gonna die We're all gonna die

@Lacheddar1990 3 года назад

I am so thankful that in my lifetime I was able to see him play Age of Adz when it was released as well as this album. Indescribable. At one point he apologized that most of his songs were about mortality and death. This man has helped me come to term with my own. Much love sufjan. That is what this is all about.
