Sufjan!!!

Sufjan has come back from his sabbatical with a vengeance. It started with the release of All Delighted People last Friday and then the announcement this week of a new CD; The Age of Adz due October 12th. Sweet Sassy it is nice to have him back, there is no one out there right now that does a better job of songwriting. Whatever the song topic, be it a person, event, place, or emotion he is able to convey them through his lyrics so beautifully without being derivative, corny, or predictable. The song below illustrates that perfectly..... You have to skip ahead to the 11 minute mark, but trust me its worth. This is by far the best song I've heard in months. Enjoy!
