Growing up in Illinois (and even a city he dedicated a song too shout out Prairie Fire That Wanders About), Sufjan looks like that midwestern uncle who only shows up to holidays every other year because he’s usually busy deer and/or duck hunting. But then he starts singing and you’re like 🥺🥺 you’re not a midwestern uncle who hunts every weekend and drinks bud light by the case you’re the love of my life (aside from my husband of course)

One of the most magnificient , magical ,rejuvenating ,evergreen pieces of music ever .....coming from the genius mind of a divinely gifted artist ...quintessentially capturing the whole spectrum of the most humane emotions and encompassing them in this immersive art to youthfully eternalize the human soul .....forever:)
Woah woah woah. It's a good song, but, most magnificent and evergreen pieces of music ever? I mean, I just slow down there. Pull up on those reins a bit.
though i do love the powerful chorus of the original song, i think i love this version much better. it’s so peaceful, steven’s strumming is so calm and beautiful, and the woman’s vocals reminds me of the strings from Bittersweet Symphony
Saw Sufjan at Boston Calling a few years ago… this song and his set was stunning. Never heard him before that - it made the show and I’m since a huge fan.
