Sufjan Stevens - Casimir Pulaski Day (live) (subtítulos español) 

How many instruments do you need? Sufjan : Yes

I can’t keep it together when I hear this song...memories of my precious 16-yr old niece being diagnosed with a particularly virulent strain of leukemia. “The book you were reading”...seeing Sarah read The Fault in our Stars at the lake house, even tho she knew it wasn’t going to turn out happy...prayers to God while begging on my knees for her to be well...when she died in her father’s arms at 6:30am...7 yrs and it still feels like yesterday. 💔

The little smile Sufjan makes at 1:04 when he sings "when I kissed you on the mouth" is the reason I love him. Such a beautiful person and poet.

i love you you strange strange man

time to cry

and he takes and he takes and he takes and he takes

Imagine having gone through what he has gone through and still come out on top making beautiful music

I’m literally crying at work hearing this song. I don’t think I’ve ever cried this hard from a song!

He's nuts. And crazy talented. WINGS!! This song hurts

The best song by the greatest singer/songwriter in recent memory

i was christian and lost my faith due to the same scenario that this song is about. I still don’t believe in much but this song is the only thing that makes me feel something.

Literally one of the best songs I've ever heard. Man, the section at 2:17 when strings start playing their own melody is simply sublime

Saw his show in Philly for this album. Unbelievable. Couldn’t turn away. What a show.

Everything I hear his song I just wanna hug him n console him

The trombone is everything

His not soft spoken voice is so beautiful!😭❤️

I remember the first time I heard this song- I was in a psych ward doing artwork- listening to this just made everything more bearable. This was about 14 years ago and it was and will always be my favorite song. Sufjan has such a sweet and gentle voice- soft and non threatening- brings tears to my eyes the melody, the lyrics and this rendition of the song- so, so beautiful.

What a track. What lyrics. AMAZING!

This version is amazing. The fact he summons a butterfly orquestra with bells it's poetic somehow.

oh sufy. My beloved soul.

This brings me comfort in uncomfortable world.

Es tan bella esta canción que me hizo llorar, y eso era justamente lo que necesitaba c´:❤❤

thanks my emotional stability has worsened

De vez en cuando regresó y escucho esta canción y la hecho de menos... Ella era maravillosa y yo solo un tonto la extraño demasiado 🥲

Is he an angel❤️

Si no crees en la magia y no tienes alma de ñiño y además has perdido a alguien muy valioso no podrás disfrutar y sentir lo que transmite Sufjan

"And he takes and he takes and he takes"

Me transporta a las estrellas con mi abuela increible.......

Gracias por los subtitulos, es una gran y hermosa canción que da una tremenda reflexión 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Dios, en serio, te da mucho que pensar :'3

Please try to find a hotter, more beautifully sensitive and charming man... I’ll wait...

Goldenrod and the 4H stone The things I brought you When I found out you had cancer of the bone Your father cried on the telephone And he drove his car into the Navy yard Just to prove that he was sorry In the morning, through the window shade When the light pressed up against your shoulder blade I could see what you were reading All the glory that the Lord has made And the complications you could do without When I kissed you on the mouth Tuesday night at the Bible study We lift our hands and pray over your body But nothing ever happens I remember at Michael's house In the living room when you kissed my neck And I almost touched your blouse In the morning, at the top of the stairs When your father found out what we did that night And you told me you were scared All the glory when you ran outside With your shirt tucked in and your shoes untied And you told me not to follow you Sunday night when I cleaned the house I found the card where you wrote it out With the pictures of your mother On the floor at the great divide With my shirt tucked in and my shoes untied I am crying in the bathroom In the morning when you finally go And the nurse runs in with her head hung low And the cardinal hits the window In the morning in the winter shade On the first of March, on the holiday I thought I saw you breathing All the glory that the Lord has made And the complications when I see his face In the morning in the window All the glory when he took our place But he took my shoulders and he shook my face And he takes and he takes and he takes

Es una joya!!! Me la guardaré para mi misma 💜

I know it's not what the song's about, and I hope I don't sound weird, but by g-d does Sufjan look beautiful here.

Este tema es una autentica maravilla.

Quiero que subas mas canciones de Sufjan Stevens >:]

Alguien se percata de lo hermoso que es Sufjan?

Time to cry guys

he kinda cute actually...

@sufjanstevens 💛

Sanctus bells. You know something serious is happening

In an interview for fader he said he's not a good singer 🤣

Why does this song hurt so bad?

Cutest man ever I want to kiss he gotdam cheek

does anyone know who this song is about?

Una auténtica obra de arte, como todas las joyas de Sufjan Stevens. Pero... por qué traduces como "asustada"? Por qué das por hecho el género femenino del personaje protagonista de la historia? "Asustada", con una camisa por fuera y unos zapatos desatados? Conoces la ambigüedad de Sufjan? Que tiene letras explícitamente gays? (una de ellas, la de esta canción) Por qué damos por hecho que los artistas (o cualquier persona), es hetero? En este caso, aunque él no lo haya reconocido explícitamente, lo que mejor le cae a los personajes de su historia es que sean dos hombres

Por qué "asustada"? No sabéis el sexo de la persona a quien se dirige en la canción. Queda ambiguo. Y si realmente fuera una historia real de Sufjan, estaría más cerca de ser un amor entre dos hombres.

Why didn't he do it on guitar!!!??!

Wrong note at 1:55

The bells are aids

Creo que la canción está escrita por la muerte de un hombre, no de una mujer.
