Guys.....get on this Sufjan Stevens album RIGHT NOW:noah:

These melodies:noah:

He kept it pretty simple musically but he has written some of the best songs since Vampire Weekends last album I'm thinking....
:lupe:


....still need to pay closer attention to the lyrics but I'm sure they are top notch considering he wrote this after his mom died:mjcry:


Can't wait to give this more spins

Carrie & Lowell is so, so fukking powerful. The whole album is about his mother, who passed away.

I don't even have the words to describe it right now.

This shyt just hit me fukking hard.

Holy shyt :mjcry:


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.”

Dr.-Who.gif






YO WTF :whatthehell:


Do I care if I survive this?
Bury the dead where they’re found
In a veil of great surprises,
hold to my head till I drown
Should I tear my eyes out now,
before I see too much?
Should I tear my arms out now?
I want to feel your touch


:damn:

I need to reiterate that this Sufjan Stevens is potential AOTY

I almost always prefer dense, complex production in my music. So for me to say that about a largely acoustic album is very rare

I am solidified that this is the best pure songwriting since Vampire Weekend's last album.

Breh, i'm having trouble thinking of a more impactful album i've heard. It's only getting stronger with each listen too. These are perfectly crafted lyrics. The imagery is so fukking rich. The subject matter is universal too, if you've ever felt a loss or been through a complex or strained relationship with someone you love(d). This shyt is going straight to my heart dude. His simplistic guitar playing perfectly accompanies the feel the album, and those ethereal solos on each song are literally magical. It's been about a week and i'm still in awe. This is a perfect album imo.

I've only heard a few snippets, but really liked what I heard. Definitely looking forward to giving the whole album a thorough listen.
