LYRICS:
Spirit of my silence I can hear you
But I’m afraid to be near you
And I don’t know where to begin
And I don’t know where to begin
Somewhere in the desert there’s a forest
And an acre before us
But I don’t know where to begin
But I don’t know where to begin
Again I’ve lost my strength completely, oh be near me,
Tired old mare with the wind in your hair
Amethyst and flowers on the table, is it real or a fable?
Well I suppose a friend is a friend
And we all know how this will end
Chimney swift that finds me, be my keeper
Silhouette of the cedar
What is that song you sing for the dead?
What is that song you sing for the dead?
I see the signal searchlight strike me in the window of my room
Well I got nothing to prove
Well I got nothing to prove
I forgive you, mother, I can hear you
And I long to be near you
But every road leads to an end
Yes every road leads to an end
Your apparition passes through me in the willows:
Five red hens-you’ll never see us again
You’ll never see us again
That "I forgive you mother" part hits me SO hard.
Strong David Wood, DUDE SAME
Hits like a fucking bus
That's Randall
That shit hurts
it tore me apart.
I just lost my mom, who had been struggling with her depression for more than ten years. I loved her but I was afraid of being around her. Most of the time, I felt tired and helpless. I listened to this song very often when she was alive, imaging one day she would be happy and be like a “mother” again, or sometimes wondered how this would end, but never did I think that she would choose to commit suicide. However, she doesn’t need to feel the pain anymore. This song perfectly captures my emotion and heals me. Mom, I miss you.
I wanna huge you 🥺❤️
Shit, man, sorry for you loss :(
I’m sorry for your lost, may she Rest In Peace. Sending love and healing your way🤍
I'm sorry for your loss mate.
❤❤ hugz

@@Jay2chill63 its from awsome adventures of captin spirit that a line
Oh God, I've got to call my mom.
Your mother is a gift, cherish her.
*Listen to 'Peacock Affect - I Wrote This In The Dark'*
I just approached mine and she was passive-agressive for reasons I can't understand
:(
Coming up in February of 2018, my mother will be deceased for 7 years. She passed on Valentine's Day of 2011. The thought of her is unbearable at times. I miss her.
youre so sweet like rambut nenek
I listened to this album on loop for my four hour flight, and still haven't heard enough of it. Oh man.
Flying back to Korea? 😺 Have a safe trip. Or landing. Or taxi ride home.
OH MY GOD EATYOURKIMCHI LISTENS TO SUFJAN STEVENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
***** so many fanboys.
Eat Your Kimchi Talk about worlds colliding. I just discovered you guys and have been watching your old videos while at the same time obsessing over this album. Laughed watching your ranch dressing ramen video before dinner and then went to his concert last night in NYC after dinner and shed a few tears.
Eat Your Kimchi small world, i've been subbed to you guys for a couple of years now and had no idea you liked sufjan stevens! glad you liked the album, love you guys!
Honestly , it doesn't matter if you were brought here because of a show or movie , or if you're here just 'cause you like Sufjan's music. Any reason is a good reason , this song is beautiful.
this needs more likes and comments I came from a game but I wouldn't be here if I didnt genuinely enjoy this music. one of those games actually got me hooked into an Artist named Daughter who I never knew about prior to playing it.
I come from a videogame, like a big part of the people in the comments
@@jamall7003 life is strange right?? bcz same
@@judyelkadi ye 😌
i came here bcz of you
"This is us" and "life is strange" will always be link to this beatiful song
I love this
This song was in Life is Strange?
@Vercettislugger yes, life is strange the adventures of captian spirit
I cried my fucking eyes out. Such a beautiful song. I want to be buried to this.
***** , once you turn 13 you will too one day, my bold friend.
***** You mean irony? Because that would make me take my words back, brother. Sarcasm is a bit strange in this context. Anyway, all the best to you.
Jessie Maness Funny that you mention it I had some chronical diarrhea yesterday while my roomate was playing this song and I asked him to please stop it because I felt I was gonna die sitting in the toilet, ironically I didn´t knew the song was called death with Dignity, beautiful song though, main reason why I am here now but bad timming.
Jessie Maness This is the happiest song on the album LOL
Pythagoras Theorem LOL
Sufjan Stevens brought me here.
really, he must be tired
Same Bro. Same. Sufjan is a legend.
HAHAHAHAHAHA! Thank you, good sir. In the plethora of "such and such show brought me here", this is pleasantly refreshing. 😎👍
Sufjan is the best 👍
you guys hold hands?
Tear up every time I hear “every road leads to an end”
Thank you Captain Spirit for introducing me this beautiful song and album...
Surprised I didn't realize it was Sufjan until I looked it up. I keep doing that lately, though. Missed the Bloc Party song in LiS2, as well, even though I recognized the style as something familiar.
@Lucifronz this is literally the reason I'm here right now. I missed it when I played captain spirit
Heard it on captain spirit and immidiately thought: Yeah, that actually makes sense.
The nostalgia 🥹
I remembered this album came out 3 days ago, and have listened to it at least 50 times since then. I've learned it word for word. The universe has some sort of cruel irony to it though; because, last night my mother told me that she has skin cancer. She's dealt with it for months and I never knew. I know the desire to have been closer to her so well now. I was not a good son. I can't listen to this album anymore. Not yet. It tears me apart, but...I just want to ask anyone reading this-- love your parents. Give them the concern they give you or didn't give you. Don't let the time apart be a regret. I'm so scared to lose my mother. I'm not looking for condolences, but this is a thing we will all face eventually. Make your time worthwhile.
Thanks for reading.
Thank you for sharing...I send you and your mother one big hug. Everthing is going to be ok (:
+James Rice I was so freaked out to read what you just wrote, because I swear on my life, the exact same thing happened to me recently. Originally my mom had told me that the hair that she had lost as a result from chemo for her skin cancer, was because of lice. Only a couple weeks ago, she finally told me the truth, and it truly is scary that people so dear to us, can parish so quickly. Thanks James, and thanks everyone.
+James Rice Get better, friend.
+James Rice I lost my mom to glioblastoma multiforme in September of 2015. She was the perfect woman and I went through my own personal tragedy when it happened. Not even a year ago, I would have never suspected she was ill, and just like that, when she was diagnosed the doctor said that she would only have nine months to live. She fought so hard and only lived for seven. This album has certainly helped me through my ordeal.
James Rice
I hope your journey is past that horrible era in your life.
wish you luck in the future my friend
This is a beautiful part of the internet.

yeah
"I forgive you mother. I can hear you and I love to be near you, but every road leads to an end..." this really hit for me
Randall: *spends 3 minutes yelling at his biological dad for leaving him at a fire station as a newborn baby*
William: would you like to come in?
Randall: ....yeah.
RIP William:(
that scene was so good. like- I WILL NEVER FORGET ABOUT IT.
This Is Us is Everything! js
Well his biological father has received Emmy
Finally This is Us people
the women who has raised me since I was 3 died 1 year ago and even though she wasn't my real mom I have always looked up to her as one and now I will never stop looking up to her because if I'm sad and I miss her I will look up at the sky and know she's their helping me, smiling at me, laughing with me because I know she's their with me through it all, I love u mom forever and always
glo prez oh so sweet!
glo prez God bless you❤️
hug hug, she will always be there for you!
She is watching you everyday!!! She loves you glo prez! - unknown
She loves you much, she stares down upon you everyday. God said to love everyone, so do that to prove to her you’ll be with her someday 😊
I once walked into a coffee shop while this began to play over the loudspeakers. I was standing there, waiting to get my coffee, just losing it, crying. It still makes me cry today. It's transcendent. It communicates something that goes deeper than mere words and mere sung and performed notes. It's proof that art is a miracle.
I've never experienced loss, and yet I can feel Sufjan's loss. This is what songs are supposed to do, to make people feel.
Or maybe we all have. Perhaps not a physical loss, or in whatever bodily there is. Maybe it's a loss of friendship, or a loss of spark of something that used to shine bright. And someway somehow, in Sufjan's realm, he was able to encapsulate the sense of loss, and someway somehow, as part of the realm, we relate to one another- in varied ways of losing something/someone.
In whatever circumstance, Sufjan just makes it a little less difficult. Just a little less 🤍
You will.
the life of strange games literally have the best soundtrack i’ve ever heard
you aren't wrong there. they got good taste in music shit lol. this is my number 2 spot of games in the franchise right behind LIS 1 and before LIS 2
"This is Us" Brought me here, Legendary pilot
I saw the episode and IMMEDIATELY knew the music was from Sufjan Stevens. His style is so very unique in Call Me By Your Name... I love it!
This song all makes sense for the pilot now. Im so sad 😭
Me too
best of the best
Dammit this episode hasn't been shown on TV where I live yet
if you've never cried to this song we can't be friends
what if I really love the song but never cried?
I would but I’m dead inside
@@jamall7003 we can still be friends
my third time crying to it today
I feel emotional listening to this but I’ve held my tears in for so long that I don’t think I can get them out anymore 🙁
The first song on carrie and lowell album and i thought i couldn't continue listening to the entire album because the emotions were too heavy, realizing that my parents are getting old and they might leave me soon and i haven't achieved anything that could make them proud or make them not worry about me being alone. That line, "Every road leads to an end..." We just got to accept that so might as well make the best memories with them while they're still alive and healthy.
I´m going to fake happines and self-confidence even if I don´t feel them. That will be my gift before she leaves. Love, I don´t have to pretend, thanks God.
😥
As someone who has experience in this realm, they are incredibly proud of you. Looking back, I thought the same about my dad. Then I scrolled through my dad's facebook and realized he was proud of every stupid, insignificant little thing I did. Your parents love you.
I’m also … Violet Grey ; the Vegan Animal Rights Activist. 🌱💚💫
i wish more people were talking about the actual song and not what brought them here
spoilt milk this song makes me think of how my mother is aging and will soon be where I will never see her again. And I sent it to a close friend who lost her mom because it was so beautiful and sad and just amazing
Well said, mob.
My grandmother died recently, my mom is still healthy and energetic, but I'm worried now.
@@MrA3523 I'm sorry you're going through that, I send you my best wishes. I'm sure your mom will be ok
Dying with dignity law for me is the most painful, and also the feeling of real freedom, having your own life handed to your hand is freedom
I brought myself here
hey i like you :)
god damn, youre independent man
Nice
Congrats
Good job
My 8 year old daughter won't let me play this album. I practically wore out the CD from playing it all last summer in the car, and eventually admitted to her that it was about the death of Sufjan's mom. Now if she hears even one bar of the opening arpeggios from the other side of the house, she screams, "MAMA! I TOLD YOU NOT TO PLAY THAT! IT'S! TOO!! SAD!!!"
+Marisol Cortez ETA: She just saw Sufjan's name in an open tab in my browser and said, "MAMA. NO. I'm going to close that." And then she closed it.
@@mcortezwriter that is sad and cute :)
i just lost my mom in november and have always loved this song, but i’m just now able to listen to it again. i can’t say i’m not sobbing, but this song really puts the feeling into word. into sound
Sorry for the loss of your mom. Sending you lots of love from Texas ♡
May her soul rest in peace. It's been two years that my father left us and I still see him in my dreams.
Trying
The song us superbe
i too lost my father back in november of 2017. we had a patchy and difficult relationship between us just like sufjan and his mother. but it doesnt stop me from weeping to this album on repeat at 1 am in the morning when this song hits at all the different levels of grief. i really haven't found anything even remotely similiar to this album that catches the essence of losing a parent and the grief that comes after. it has been 3 years now but i return to this over and over again and it washes me over with the same emotions just as the first time. and for your mom i'm so sorry as i'm sorry for myself. i know exactly how you feel and it's a dumb thing to say but i will always share this song with you in the month of november.
May her memory be a blessing
Lyrics 👇
Spirit of my silence I can hear you, but I'm afraid to be near you
And I don't know where to begin
And I don't know where to begin
Somewhere in the desert there's a forest, and an acre before us
But I don't know where to begin
But I don't know where to begin
Again I lost my strength completely, oh be near me tired old mare
With the wind in your hair
Amethyst and flowers on the table, is it real or a fable?
Well I suppose a friend is a friend
And we all know how this will end
Chimney swift that finds me be my keeper, silhouette of the cedar
What is that song you sing for the dead
What is that song you sing for the dead
I see the signal searchlight strike me, in the window of my room
Well I got nothing to prove
Well I got nothing to prove
I forgive you mother I can hear you, and I long to be near you
But every road leads to an end
Yes every road leads to an end
Your apparition passes through me, in the willows and five red hens
You'll never see us again
You'll never see us again
Thank you 🌱
This Is Us
Yes!! Such a good show!!
If anybody wants, these are the song meanings I have gathered from others and my self. While not perfect I feel this captures the essence of this incredibly delicate and well worded work of art. Interpretation is in brackets
Lyrics:
Spirit of my silence I can hear you
But I’m afraid to be near you
And I don’t know where to begin
And I don’t know where to begin
(He does not know how to confront death, he feels the spirit of silence as the call to be aware of death, to become at peace with it and consequently himself)Somewhere in the desert there’s a forest
And an acre before us
But I don’t know where to begin
But I don’t know where to begin
(Most likely refers to his despondent state but his belief that there is somewhere he can find peace in spirit to think of his mother happily and without personal sadness)
Again I’ve lost my strength completely, oh be near me,
Tired old mare with the wind in your hair
(straightforward meaning. He is deeply depressed and wants his mum back)Amethyst and flowers on the table, is it real or a fable?
Well I suppose a friend is a friend
And we all know how this will end
(He does not know if his memories are positively biased as there is some truth and lies to it. He is questioning his despondence. But it does not matter much because a friend is a friend regardless and he has to come to terms.)
Chimney swift that finds me, be my keeper
Silhouette of the cedar
What is that song you sing for the dead?
What is that song you sing for the dead?
(refers to the funeral process, coffin, cremation and song. Possibly he prefers to cremate 'chimney swift'. Cedar is a very rot resistant wood and bugs do not eat it, so it is a good but fairly expensive coffin wood. It also is a very spiritual wood in many traditions for sending off the dead. It could mean he spared no expense with her coffin.)
I see the signal searchlight strike me in the window of my room
Well I got nothing to prove
Well I got nothing to prove
(after the funeral process, he reflects on himself in the most intimate of ways, as if he is before god and cannot lie to himself and so must confront any feelings he has in full honesty)I forgive you, mother, I can hear you
And I long to be near you
But every road leads to an end
Yes every road leads to an end
(straightforward, he forgives her for the trespasses he hints at earlier in the passage. He still loves her but has come to accept the fact of her death)
Your apparition passes through me in the willows:
Five red hens-you’ll never see us again
You’ll never see us again
(this line kills me; it is him truly accepting death, that it cannot be fought. Willows are very spiritual trees, they are flexible and symbolize recovery, bonding from support and moving with the flow of life. Also willows are hunched trees, nicked weeping willows for their resemblance to persons hunched in grief. Five red hens could refer to family. They will not ever see her again, it is reversed to change the perspective to one of mutual loss)
its funny how everyone gets something different out of a song. i always saw the "amethyst and flowers" part as him asking himself if its really true, is she really dead? but saying "a friend is a friend" was like saying his delusions of her being alive were fine if they helped. and now, since reading this, i see it both that way and the way you put it.
The song I s about the death with dignity act that was passed this year. Allowing my a thermally I’ll patient to end their life of their terms. That’s what the song is about. It’s not my view, it’s facts from the people who created it. It’s also a big part of Captain Spirit, and that’s what happened to the main characters mom.
@@xaftershock3380 yes that also makes sense! Maybe his mother choosed to die that way, and that is why he says he forgives her?
Damn now im thinking the whole song is about his mom coming to terms with death in her deathbed
Thank you!😀
Spotify shuffled this song in a playlist for me 5 mins before midnight while i was relaxing in the tub thinking bout life... so this is my 2020 song now... 👍 happy new year, everybody
Its been a great year so far
@@inside9787 one of the best
2020 vibes!
you did yourself a bad there buddy. yikes.
happy 2020
It feels so good to release some pent up pain that's been buried in my subconscious by crying to this
Omg nikkiland never knew you would listen to something about this but I support your content
ok guys, i'm glad kanye sent you here and everything, but don't stop here. listen to all the other great sufjan albums like "Illinois" "The age of adz" "carrie and lowell" and "seven swans". You won't be disappointed.
Illinois was a huge deal in the music industry 10 years ago. And I think Kendrick sampled Age of Adz on TPAB. Both are phenomenal records and Carrie & Lowell was considered among the best of 2015.
Illnois is the perfection
+Bobby Lee Swagger Yeah, Kendrick sampled 'All for Myself' which is an awesome song in its own right!
Michigan is also amazing.
Yeah, I love Illinois, but Michigan is better imo.
this song reminds me of being a kid so much.
*sheds tear*
hotcakesand syrup bc you're parents are dead?🤔🤔
hotcakesand syrup Exactly the same feeling. Wow.
hotcakes w/butterandsyrup im glad im still a child
Mine ended when I was 10 and just saying ADHD and depression do not go well together
oh :( rip
My favourite show "THIS IS US" brought me here
Same!!
Yes, me too.
What? This was really used in TV shows?
What I was brought here by captain spirit
This is the song that speaks to all.
This is the guitar that sounds like our souls.
This is the piano that echoes in our minds.
This is the melody that makes you smile and cry at the same time.
This is a promise.
This is a prayer.
This...
This, is us.
nice poen
Beautiful 💙🙏
maaaaaan shut the fuck up fore I take your BITCH again
Spirit of my silence I can hear you, but I'm afraid to be near you
And I don't know where to begin
And I don't know where to begin
Somewhere in the desert there's a forest, and an acre before us
But I don't know where to begin
But I don't know where to begin
Again I lost my strength completely, or be near me tired old mare
With the wind in your hair
Amethyst and flowers on the table, is it real or a fable?
Well I suppose a friend is a friend
And we all know how this will end
Chimney swift that finds me be my keeper, silhouette on the seater
What is that song you sing for the dead
What is that song you sing for the dead
I see the signal searchlight strike me, in the window of my room
Well I got nothing to prove
Well I got nothing to prove
I forgive you mother I can hear you, and I long to be near you
But every road leads to an end
Yes every road leads to an end
Your aberration passes through me, in the willows and five red hens
You'll never see us again
You'll never see us again
"silhouette on the cedar" is the lyric
I think it's apparition rather than aberration haha
"forest, and a maker before us".?
*Oh, be near me tired old mare
Martin Kalin it’s actually silhouette OF the cedar, just sayin.
I see comments like Kanye made him famous
His fame is because of his talent and music
there are a lot of people with good talent and good music that never become famous. A person as big as Kanye shouting you out can definitely help regarding fame. I do not know how well he was known before Kanye. I personally ran into him through This Is Us
@@stefond7908 He was already pretty big in the folk community, definitely not obscure.
@@stefond7908 Yeah he's been selling out shows internationally for like 5-10 years. But now he's more famous. That's probably good too.
I listened to this song for the first time a couple hours ago and it broke me. My father passed away 3 years ago, and even though he’s talking about her mother in the track, I can’t stop thinking about my dad. Accepting death and grief has been the most difficult thing I have experienced in my life.
same, my dad died 3 years ago and im in still on a state not really believing he is really died, sometimes it always got me thinking here and there then cry a bit but hey, its a part of life, people come and go
Just remember, accepting death and grief doesn't mean you can't cry about it. It's alright if you still cry over it
It’s funny, but I just found my original comment on this Sufjan track from 8 years ago (I said “Oh God, I need to call my mom”). And I did call her, many times. But here 8 years later, my mom is now dead. She died 2 years ago from a heart attack at age 82. Actually, she had one heart attack that she recovered from, and I had the pleasure of being her caregiver, waiting on her hand and foot for a few weeks while she recovered. I'm so glad I had that time with her, even though during that time she was so afraid another heart attack might happen again. Sadly, a few weeks later, it did happen again. But her second heart attack was fatal, and that was it. "Every road leads to an end." Sufjan is right. Now my mom is just memories and pictures. Bye, bye mom. Love you.
Every road leads to an end.... So glad I watched call me by your name or I may have never discovered you Sufjan Stevens.. Such beautiful songs
Me too!
Shushimhuntinwabbits I am glad he preformed at the Oscars or else I would of never heard of the awesome Illinois album. I just got Age of Adz, Planetarium, & C&L...
You're in for a trip. Sufjan's got a large discography
ZimmerSquash yea I have 6 albums and 3 songs from Call Me By Your Name and already it makes up 110 songs... I know there are those moments like The Black Hawk War but that compensates with songs like Impossible Soul or Chicago...
Surprisingly the shortest album is Carrie & Lowell with only 44 min as the other albums are well over 1 hour
The albums I have as of 6/15/18
Michigan
Illinois
Avalanche
Age of Adz
Carrie & Lowell
Planetarium
and the three songs from Call Me By Your Name
I might get The Greatest Gift and both Christmas Albums as their astounding 40+ tracks for each make me curious hearing his renditions of the hymns such as Come Thou Fount as my favorite version was by Fernando Ortega...
Honestly I think I became a fanboy of his work...
the road called mantroid..
My own music taste brought me here
Lol ditto
I have lost my grandfather my father, my best friend and my childhood pet, all tragically, and in a matter of 18 months. Im devastated and feel like I cant breathe. This song has been the only brief peace ive found in recent time. Thank you, it really is beautiful.
Be strong, my dude. I've never felt that dread before but it always gets better even though you can't see ir
Just know, there's always someone there for you. Anywhere and everywhere. Have someone to rely on and be your comfort. I really do hope the best for you. And I hope you find love with many people as life goes on :)
i'm so fucking sorry....it feels like it all comes in at once. i lost my mom in may, now my childhood cat, my first baby has heart failure. life is cruel
I'm not crying, you're crying.
*CAPTAIN SPIRIT*
Yes bro
ready for battle
Mant Zap CAPTAIN AUTISM
I listen to this 24/7
Yes
He did it again
another album of the decade
personal, honest and resonating
never thought he'd come close to Illnois
I stand corrected
+sonicgrub word
+sonicgrub It easily surpasses illinois
geokeoGR
I disagree.
Illinois is very dear to me since this is how I discovered Sufjan.
I recorded his live performance during the Illinois tour from KCRW in 2005 and played it in my truck before college classes.
Was struck how good the songwriting was.
And then heard the full deal on record and was stunned.
Sprawling and ambitious, it reminded me of an oral version of Grandma Moses' paintings. To steal from Sufjan; Illinois is an Arts and Crafts tone poem.
High art in a down to earth way.
I could hear Illinois in any mood since it covers so much emotional ground, while Carrie and Lowell is more niche listening.
If I'm in an upbeat, celebratory mood Carrie doesn't do, but Illinois does. There is no song on Carrie that matches the perfection and exultancy of Jacksonville.
But if I need to feel the deep roots of familial earth, I'll spin Carrie to deep satisfaction.
I lost my mother 4 years ago to brain tumor. I haven't moved on. Feels like an important part of me me is missing and this void will never be filled by anything or anyone. Also, i refuse to move on because its the only way i feel i am connected to her. Still feels like Yesterday. The Pain in Sufjan's voice is so deep, always makes me cry and is very relatable. Sufjan is my Hero ❤
It's your family. You have to make a new one.
I’m no professional and I don’t mean to give a lesson or anything. That said, I feel like when somebody you love has died, you need to find a way to be connected to them through the happiness they brought to you, not only to the pain that their absence brings.
Being in pain is not the only way to stay connected to a person you love. When you are happy, sad or angry, you also are connecting with them because you have probably felt all those emotions towards your mother in the past.
I feel like I’m not using the right words and that this comment is confusing. But I just mean to say that if you feel like you can’t allow yourself to be happy in your life because you think that you would be abandoning her, well I don’t think you would. I think you would be sharing the rest of your life with her, sharing the happy moments and the sad and that’s probably what she would have wanted for you.
@@malekhaddad1389 i really understand where you're coming from, thankyou very much for your kind words!
i know your pain
@@cinephile5939 I’m glad it was understandable, thank you for your kind answer 😊
I lost my grandfather recently, and this song really helps me deal with the grief of losing him. It reminds me of all the good times we shared, but also helps me to accept the fact that he's gone. I miss him so much. The sweetest soul.
This song gets me pretty emotional. One because the lyrics are for some reason extremely relatable, and two because the melody is just really calming that it makes me think. A lot.
GO GO GO, Captain Spirit!
Ruivo ™ mds tu aqui 😂
lol bst emotional game
Yaaaa!!
Nostalgia
Love that game❤️
I disowned my mother last christmas.
I put out a spite update post on facebook that amounted to "I'm doing great and feeling actualized. you're still sewage."
this puts me in a different headspace with my feelings towards her.
I really. Still want to connect with them on some level.
But they are just never going to run out of excuses to be all kinds of vicious and horrible towards me.
And at some point, I just had to learn to give myself permission to let go.
Maybe some day I'll even move past this stage, perhaps when they've passed away and the 'moment' is gone.
family can be strange.
I've been shown what love looks like by good friends.
I've been told "I love you" many times by the same person that will cut me down without hesitation.
Love shouldn't look like that.
This song is making me so emotional, it really hurts...
This, Divers and To Pimp a Butterfly are my favourite albums of the year!!
Joanna is incredible. Saw her live recently and it blew my mind. I don't love the new record as much Ys or HOOM but its still pretty rad.
+Dallas Jokic Are you me?
+Ransom Lewis but TPAB is like album of the year..
***** yes I know it won but it was a wrong call imo one if the biggest snubs in the Grammy's history. It won becuase popularity and pop appeal.
***** I could say the same about Kendrick's album too. But, I haven't heard of MEW's album so I'll have to give it a listen
Sufjan Steven's music almost makes me believe in God. Almost.
Sufjan's music breaks my heart. And the only way to know for sure you have a heart is to have it broken.
Again I've lost my strength completely, oh be near me
Tired old mare with the wind in your hair
Amethyst and flowers on the table, is it real or a fable?
Well I suppose a friend is a friend
And we all know how this will end
What is that song you sing for the dead?
Ellen Lee Tu es très mignonne.
Ellen Lee It's a nice reminder that religion can inspire absolutely beautiful things, keeps me in check when I get angsty about religion being only harmful. Love his music, his lyrics and arrangements are astonishingly good.
Turtleproof If only more "Christians" in the USA were like Sufjan when it comes to practicing their faith: humble and reticent. Sufjan doesn't get up in people's faces or appear to judge people who don't share his beliefs and I respect that. He uses his faith as a source of inspiration. He's like the opposite of monumental hypocrites like the Duggars.
Ellen Lee Right, he doesn't judge people or shame people like the goofy football players or weird reality TV families do, the very same that proper atheists don't wave it around. It's a beautiful place to reach and has, as you said, been a source of inspiration and motivation.
***** There is not God from any religious text that exists, each one can be proven to be impossible because they each fail their own claims, and why follow a violent, evil being that says we're disgusting? God is not real, fortunately for us, love is.
Here from "This is Us." Beautiful.
This song is in Captain Spirit and just shows the wonder of a child behind closed doors, reminding me of a youth that’s so distant. Coming from an abusive home I found wonder in the outside and turned to weed and depression for coping. I was a sad little girl for so long and this song reminds me of my happy days with friends and riding bikes and ice cream. I’m high,
I know; but I realize how short life is and I’m feeling so lucky to tap into something that i thought was gone
'Because.. we've all been children' CaptainSpirit Here!!
When the comment section is overrun and destroyed by Kanye West fans, gotta say, im glad he listens to Sufjan though!
If it's Kanye that brings them here than so be it. Whatever makes them fans. I'm personally a Ye fan but didn't realize that he shouted him out or whatever. I'm just here cuz it's good music lol.
Who's here from looking up Sufjan stevens "death with dignity"?
here from looking up "this was the worst christmas ever!"
I looked up "Carrie and Lowell"
I looked up "I don't know where to begin" Google is pretty good understanding me
Listening to even the first few seconds of this song will put me in instant bliss. It makes me remember all those magical morning times I'd walk with my mother, give her little flowers to put in her hat, and watch the soft sky change colors. The sun wouldn't be out yet itd still be softly lit, we could walk with the fading moon and the rising sun. Beautiful times, walk with your loved ones.
Beautiful words, beautiful heart. I wish all the best for you.
I am here coz of "This is Us" :)
Same here.......that ending was like spot on.......
yep..my new fav show :)
Yes!!!!
Yasss
yes!
Straight up listened to this song on loop for 3 hours straight because I felt like it
Currently doing that
Get well soon Sufjan, thoughts are with you
i lost my mom on the 10th of february, 2022. the wound is still really fresh, we had an incredibly rough relationship and she traumatized me a lot, making me afraid to try to rebuild a relationship with her. the day before she passed we went shopping and sat in her car for awhile. i felt i was ready to fix things. even if i cant now, i forgive her, for everything. all of it. she was my anchor even when i didnt realize it. i love you mom, i'm glad you're finally safe.
This album really is pulling me out of my depression. I am forever grateful Sufjan.
I always had wichita lineman or do you realise as my funeral song. But then I realised, I can't afford a funeral and would quite like this playing on a transistor radio as I'm scooped into a dustbin
Listening it after 15 days of losing my mother. Feels like a punch in my gut. I used to love this song and used to listen it almost daily but after losing her, it just is so difficult to hear it. I can't help but get reminded of all the memories, all the sleepless nights, all the laughters,all the fights. Sigh...what will I do to have them back.
Rough shit man, u'll see ur in the other life, I believe in u🙌
@@domisfaded420 Thank you :"). Its been really difficult for me these days. But your comment made me smile. Means a lot to me.
How are you buddy? Just take your time in healing :")
@@akaenteng2895 thanks for asking. I'm doing much better. Its difficult but I'm trying my best.
I began listening to this song as a way of coping when I'm scared, and that's why I'm listening to it now. This song makes me feel like I'm sitting on a bridge at sunset, letting everyone I love hug me peacefully. That's what I want. I'm going to the emergency room because my knee is hurting too much to walk. I'm a minor, and I'm scared. I can't go to my job, I can't take a stroll with my friends. I don't know what exactly is wrong, but I hope it isn't severe. Wish me luck.
Does this make anyone else think of their childhood? The song is so light hearted. Making you not have a worry in the world. The the song stops and you can’t help but need another listen to escape...
I love his style. It’s so distinct, you could pick his songs out from anywhere-it’s magical, I can’t even think of a word to describe the feeling
I just listened to this as a remembrance for my mother who passed one year ago today. I'm a mess now...
It's almost 2 : 30 a.m & I'm feeling so nostalgic it's *killing* me. So, I'm here listening to this masterpiece.
That’s me right now 🤣
taste for melodrama omg
Seven months later....and I'm you
@@sylviakioko7904 18 hours later I'm you.
To all the Kanye fans here: Enjoy. This is one of Sufjan's best. It's about the passing of his parents. It'd be really cool if Kanye sampled this.
Kanye's mother passed so it would be interesting if he sampled this
+Marty _ Never heard of the guy, but great song. Have to check the album out.
You for sure should. Similar vibes to this.
thanx for the background info 👌
+Marty _ Dope comment. You could have been like all the other internet hipsters here and told us to fuck off for finding this artist through Kanye but instead you spread positivity. Peace
Sufjan, you're a mega person. Carrie and Lowell is the pinnacle of nostalgia, of a innocent and lost world. You had a great step dad, a great mother. This album art makes me emotional, just an old picture. Memories of a less complicated world. God bless you brother. I wish I will be able to die with dignity too.
I just buried my dog, and this song came to me in the way music comes at times like these to heal us. Thank you sufjan stevens
Days after my 25th birthday i lost my precious mom 'cus of covid, a good friend of mine told me about this album, and soon after hearing the first lyrics of Death with Dignity i felt like a tight hug from her and a big weight was off from my shoulders, needless to say that this became one of my "comfort albums" whenever i feel sad or falling into a depression, makes me feel like everything will be fine after all the pain...
Mom, someday we will see us again ♥️ love you, keep singin' beautiful up there...
Thank you, Sufjan, for helping me come to terms with my mother's passing.
This song just.... Breaks me down into a sad mess of emotions. I relate to this song a lot. My mother and father argue a lot. I just want them together for once like they used to for the first couple of years of my life. I know love doesn't work with people and people sees I'm just some "edgy" 12 year old. I just hope everything gets better. Thank you, Sufjan Stevens for making something that relates to me so much. 💕
Hold on, it'll get better. Sending lots of strength and love your way:)
This song brings to mind a poignant phrase from wuthering heights: “I have to remind myself to breathe - almost to remind my heart to beat!”
i never had a good relationship with my mom and listening to this song makes my heart ache
Totally relatable...cuts deep
I am truly grateful for having a great mother who made me grow.
For some reason, this is my hope song. When I listen to it, I feel like everything's going to be okay. It's soothing.
I used to listen to this album non-stop when I was doing my masters. Especially when I would go on a grocery run to some huge store and put on my headphones and then its just me and Sufjan's hauntingly beautiful lyrics. Its been three years and I don't listen to this album as often but when I do I feel so much happier. Maybe because I loved those years of my life and how these beautiful songs were there to accompany me through them.
Everytime I listen this song,the tears just can not help to come out.something deep in my heart are hurting beating feeling.
I’m here because of SinB’s ig story but i end up liking the song so much!😍
Me too
Me too hahahhh
"again, i lost my strength completely, oh be near me"
"Yes every road leads to an end."
And so does the wolf brothers' story. I'm so glad I got to experience such an adventure.
Spirit of my silence, I can hear you
But I’m afraid to be near you
And I don’t know where to begin
And I don’t know where to begin
Somewhere in the desert, there’s a forest
And an acre before us
But I don’t know where to begin
But I don’t know where to begin
Again, I've lost my strength completely, oh be near me
Tired, old mare with the wind in your hair
Amethyst and flowers on the table
Is it real or a fable?
Well, I suppose a friend is a friend
And we all know how this will end
Chimney swift that finds me, be my keeper
Silhouette of the cedar
What is that song you sing for the dead?
What is that song you sing for the dead?
I see the signal searchlight strike me in the window of my room
Well, I got nothing to prove
Well, I got nothing to prove
I forgive you, mother, I can hear you
And I long to be near you
But every road leads to an end
Yes, every road leads to an end
Your apparition passes through me in the willows
Five red hens - you’ll never see us again
You’ll never see us again
This song looped + Mushrooms = a Wonderful life changing experience!
+Victor Vega ( ';
This song is about to get a huge boost.
Congrats - you're the first LIS comment on this video :-). From this spot on, the comments will never be the same again.
This is Us truly changed my life
Peak fiction
This song is medicine.This song was sent to me by my closest friend after the passing of my Mother.Helps the pain.
This reminds me of my relationship with my mom. She was abusive during my childhood, and it affected me greatly. I remember listening to this song back then and how this song described how much I longed to have a relationship with her without it being toxic and filled with anger and sadness.
I'm glad to say that now she made a drastic change and is completely different. She's a lot more friendly and I feel like I'm finally developing the bond we should've had ages ago.
However, now whenever I listen to this song, it actually feels more sad...Because I picture this song playing at her funeral for when the time inevitably comes. How the last verse perfectly describes the dread that will come with her passing.
Cheers to all the mums. Sufjan killed me with this album. Even the album art. So nostalgic, so filled with pleasure of pain. Hey mother, love you. Please stay a bit longer with this unworthy of a son.
I just miss my dad so much. I wish I could hear his voice right now. This song makes me cry every single time. How beautiful. How raw. makes my heart sink.
Listening to this with Piratebay open in another tab, just like Kanye intended

This is us pilot episode.;)
THATS WHERE I KNOW IT FROM OMG :(
I almost cry at the fact that there is 5 things that people at the age of 7 want to go back and change and that goes all through life. I love that this song brings it out of me.
I swear man.
I hear it every god damn time.
Captain Spirit and Life is Strange 2
