Well haha i sent my piano teacher an email asking him if he could work out the sheet music to this song 20 minutes before Christmas, and now I'm here with 8 minutes before Christmas, still listening to it, basically in a coma.
I think he reworked parts of this song into impossible soul on age of adz. can't link it up note for note but I hear lots of similarities when I listen to both of them
I still return to this weekly. Immense
Seeing this song live on this tour was transcendent perfectionnnnn
This is the best song that has ever been composed.
I listen to it at least once a day.. it's my personal kind of medicine..with the intro,the first 3 notes,I'm alright..
Wow, I saw him do this same bit live at the Paramount in Seattle the same year. Time has just stood still since then
he has a God-given talent.
all of his songs are beautiful. his song sister winter is lovely too.
I want to see this man live so, so much.
Gorgeous song. Absolutely brilliant.
Sufjan never ceases to amaze and inspire me.
Utterly glorious. Wish it had a studio rendition
Three years later, it still gives me goosebumps
14 years later? I'm guessing the same!
@@cestpourcela 16 years later? still same
What could be more perfect than this?

God I love talent
this is a beautiful song... and oh, thanks for the pitchfork tip! I've always wanted a MP3 file.
Magnum opus
Given' me goosebumps...
(how many times I watched this now?) hehe (:
I emailed his record label once and asked about this song, and they said they had no idea what Sufjan would be doing as far as releasing it. :/
I emailed them years ago too about the same thing. This needs to be in the world being heard in fully mastered and mixed glory.

My Rajneesh
guitar is very similar to his star spangled banner
