The wind chimes

or whatever they are get tedious on this album, which is littered with sonic experiments that lull you to sleep and pretentious song titles like "Oh God, Where Are You Now? (In Pickeral Lake? Pigeon? Marquette?)" I'd like to see Justin Timberlake cover that one. If you're into writing poetry or...

Love it

Probably my personal favorite album of all time.Caught my eye with the artwork and title, and it allowed me to discover Sufjan. I love his other albums too, but this was my first. Since I've moved away from Michigan, this record speaks to me even more. It truly captures the emotion of having...

On the Music of Sufjan Stevens

Frankly, the music of Sufjan Stevens is a bit too twee and precious for my everyday tastes, but I'll be the first to admit that he comes close to touching something that exists in all of us -- that innate and intangible sense of "place" and "home" the likes of which famed authors John Steinbeck...

Impressions

1st Impression: Turning on the HDTV without cable or satellite & scanning through the many PBS stations, I came across the show "Austin City Limits" where a large brass band was wearing butterfly wings. I clicked the information button & the name Sufjan Stevens came on the screen. Is this Cat...

Michigan Lived Up to It's Reputation

I recently bought a car and drove across the country with a friend, and as we entered the state of Michigan, he pulled out the Sufjan Stevens CD, with which I was not previously acquainted. What an amazing performance! This recording is a truly artistic endeavor - drawing on the inspirations of...

Good for old and new Sufjan fans

You won't take this out of your cd player for days. Good quality Sufjan at his best. This would be good for newer fans as well; it's a good album to get acquainted with his sound and discover why so many love his music.

Michigan

My favorite Sufjan album so far, it has the perfect mix of poignant lyics and solid music. Making a lot more sense, and not as bizzare, as Illinoise, I really enjoyed listening to the entire album without wanting to skip ahead to other songs. I highly recommend this album for first time Sufjan...

I wish I could, but I just can't...

Having read some of the reviews, on this page, I simply can't stress, to any greater degree of enthusiasm, just how amazing this album is. I own two of Mr. Stevens' releases, to date (Seven Swans and this one), and I plan on owning each and every one.His lyrics range from the simplistic, yet...
