As a fellow Sufjan fiend now, I’m wondering how you feel about the song The Owl And The Tanager? I feel like it snuck up on me but has quickly risen to be one of his most crushing songs for me.
Also did you ever listen to Don’t Talk (Put Your Head On My Shoulder) and God Only Knows by The Beach Boys yet? No pressure, I was just wondering what you thought of them if you did listen :)
Hiee!!
I initially did sleep on this song but it's grown on me in the past few weeks. My eyes well up when he sings "You little boy, you little boy" The stirytelling goes Insane. WHAT DO YOU MEEN IT'S ABOUT A YOUNG BOY WHO GOT INTO A QUEER RELATIONSHIP, SO FULL OF APPREHENSION WHICH ULTIMATELY ENDED BY HIM GETTING BETRAYED. AND HE'S SO ALONE IN THIS. HE FELT LIKE PREY AND NOW HE'S SO ALONE THAT HE'D RATHER BE PREY. Also the analysis of 'counting alluvial plains' stung a little too close oh my god.
It feels like the extra evil version of 'The Predatory Wasp of the Palisades Is Out to Get Us!' 😔
I'm just going to lyric spam here become some of these have me staring at the ceiling in awe (moments before I weep)
"How I was wrong/ tingling from the kill/ tickle me until/ you devil bird, you evil still"
"How can you run from me now/ the lonliest chime in the house/the lonliest chime in the house"
"Come to me calvary still/ I’m weeding and raking until/ I’m bleeding in spite of my love for you/ It bruised and bruised my will"
"Come to me feathered and frayed/ For I am the ugliest prey/ For I am the ugliest prey"

ALSO I'm so so sorry. I was planning to but it completely swept from my mind. I'm getting a haircut today so I'll be listening to music on the way. I'll let you know what I think!
