"Ithought I saw you breathing"
gets me every time
"pray over your body, but nothing ever happens"
its such a sad song. my favoruite off the album, and he played it when he was in manchester!
?
?
far too gorgeous a song
to ever have been allowed to exist.
awe-inspiring
if proof was needed of sufjan's genius, here it is
"and i almost touched your blouse..."
aww
beautiful
one of my favourites on the album :)
Stunning song.
Although the whole album is brilliant, nothing can touch this.
it's
a great song but I never found it particularly sad
For me it's a dead heat
between this and 'Predatory Wasp....'
Both are so beautiful and heartfelt that they make every hair stand on end :)

If the rest of his material was awful...
This song alone would still justify my 10/10 rating for him.
...Let's all be thankful it's not :)
I totally agree
That was my nomination in that saddest songs thread. That last line is perfect.
