I used to have a boyfriend who played in a cover band, and let’s just say it reflected the breadth of his musical tastes. (He, in turn, called me a snob — which is true. I like a lot of obscure music; I had that in common with my ex-husband.) One time I called him at work because I could’t get a new CD to play in my computer, and he asked me the name of the CD. “What does that have to do with anything?” I asked.
“What is it?” he said.
“Sufjan Stevens,” I replied. Silence. Anyway, this song reminded me of that story. Sufjan Stevens:
Nice story, neat introduction to the song. I’ve only just realised we can do this 🙂
