He wrote one that was published in a New School collection of graduates' writing called "We are Shielded by the Holy Ghost". Its very good. Flannery O'Connor is surely an influence.
Many thanks for this! I first thought that this interview was a recent one, but then I saw it's from 2004 :( That's a pitty, Sufjan is already been quiet for so long!
Why would his parents need to apologize for giving him such a great name? I think it suits him well. Glad he didn't change it. Crazy how the reporter seems to think the name "Jan" is the same as the "jan" in "SufJAN!?! I'd not heard the name "Sufjan" before either, but I kinda guessed it wasn't Germanic ... ha!
I love this interview. It feels very cozy and relaxing. I can’t believe that it was 17 years ago...
Can't believe either
Sufjan is a beautiful name.
Sofia ne, something to do with philo .......sophy

He's such a timeless person
I would love to read the stories he's written.

Sufjan, we want more. Would YOU consider bring more music to us⚡
I think he's trying to say there are similarities between them and there are it's a similar chord progression and style (:
7:51 I feel like there was a ton cut out right there...
But good otherwise!
Calvin like Calvin and Hobbes?
Actually yes. He said that during a live show
