Turned on the radio to a great community radio station, KDHX, this morning for my two mile commute and ended up sitting in the parking lot for several minutes listening to this wonderful piece; good thing I left a little earlier than normal. Thanks to SoundHound I was able to identify the artist, Sufjan Stevens (no relation), and buy the album before going in. I’ve already played this song 4 or 5 times today, and have the album cued up in VLC. Good stuff.

His stuff is fun for a while...then wears pretty thin. Wasnt he supposed to be doing an album for each state?

There was talk of that, but he admitted that it really wasn’t going to happen.

I don’t know if I could listen to some of the stuff I’ve heard today multiple times, but other pieces have nice layering that makes for a richness in tone that seems to be lacking in a lot of highly-polished, overly-produced pop music. We have some dreadfully inoffensive station on at work, at least in the call center portion where I have to work a couple of days each week this month. The same saccharine tunes over and over and over, interrupted by some ‘80s stuff during the lunch hour. At lunch I had to get in the car and blast some Anthrax and Public Enemy to clear my ears a bit. I miss the days of ‘Morning Becomes Eclectic’ that was played and some stupid job I had 20+ years ago; the boss liked that show, as did I, so everyone else just had to take it...

I listened to this a lot 2 years ago. It’s excellent.
