Yes, I made a typo and you're still a dumbass! Difference noted.

Have you ever seen butterflies fight?  Pugnacious, not precious.  Maybe that's why I like this tune.

{#Bounce}Like this song quite a lot.  It seems to fit in perfectly with the kind of day it is here - overcast, a bit chilly, but with the promise of sunbreaks... {#Sunny}

I have found all songs from Sufjan to be at least as good as this one. Radio Paradise has some serious choice available here {#Smile}

Great song. I think Sufjan fits into the outer bounds of what's acceptable to the average RP listener. Other excellent bands in that category are Grizzly Bear and Animal Collective.

Definitely an ambitious composer, but he's just that, you nasty people, a composer. I venture to guess your idea of musicality is the three piece/chord approach. Sufjan orchestrates from sensitivity to the idea whilst you patter throughout your mp3 list for simplistic solace...

Genius! A perfect 10 for this, and just about everything on the disk.

It wasn't always that way for me though. I thought it strange when I first found Sufjan Stevens.
