| Sufjan Stevens – Djohariah Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Great, great song, very emotional (including the Neil Young-esque guitar solo). "And the man who left you for dead He's the heart grabber back stabber double cheater wife beater You don't need that man in your life". It couldn't have been easy for Sufjan to sing such angry words so softly and so beautifully. Kinda reminds me of the restraint employed by Stevie Wonder on 'He's Misstra Know-It-All' - a gentle, lilting ballad, but with excoriating lyrics. |

| My favourite track from the EP as well. I really love the 'swell' of the final part as Sufjan's vocal gradually builds in intensity while backing vocals and instruments keep being added. | |
