I’m so glad Sufjan Stevens put out Seven Swans and not a tribute to Delaware or some shit. I’m still a bit dubious about the 50 CDs For 50 States gimmick. This song off the new album is quite lovely.

yeah, i like this album more than the last one because every other song doesn’t go on for over 9 mins.
I agree- some states just aren’t worth singing about. I mean, I was born and raised in New Hampshire but I wouldn’t run out and grab an album about it.
And even John Linnel didn’t include all 50 states on his “state songs” cd, which would’ve been a much easier task.
This is easily my favorite song on “Seven Swans.” The creepy/comfortable vibe he gives off… yikes, it’s time for my nap!
This is a really good album. I can’t wait for Illinois.
Lost in a cloud, a voice, have no fear, we draw near…
just heard it today, and loved it down
thanks for this mp3 – amazing. i still haven’t gotten around to buying the album. or ‘michigan’ [i agree that 50 states thing is unlikely to happen, so good thing he started with the best one]
got this when it came out, superb. just superb.
i know, i was so sad when i missed the set during sxsw. waaaaah
Thanks for putting that mp3 up, I’m now very into Sufjan Stevens. Blogs ARE good for something.
