Sufjan Sunday

I bought the new Sufjan Stevens record on itunes yesterday.
21 songs for $9.99

The thing that most impresses me about him today, and it changes all the time, is that he is so comfortable in his song writing sound, his harmonic palatte, if you will.
I admire artists (Charlie Haden, Paul Klee, Puccini, e.e. cummings) that are so comfortable in their own skin.

To paraphrase Jerry Seinfeld: Sufjan's seen the electric guitar, he's sticking with the oboe.

MP3: Adlai Stevenson
