Just returned from NYC where u saw this ( may 2024) on broadway- I cried , laughed & was deeply moved - If you get a chance to see this it’s unbelievably amazing! The dancers were just incredible. My son and I both cried holding hands during one part of the performance! There’s no dialogue - I am a southerner by birth but I know now why New Yorkers never want to leave ! The shows!!
I’m in tears now. I’ve been looking for this album and this artist for a while because i partially lost some memories and i finally found this album … and i just realized that i recently listened to mystery of love !! I’ve been already connected!!
I'm curious to know how that happened? Did you listened to it a lot, but suddenly forgot the name or something? Anyways, glad to see you see you rediscovered Illinois, it's straight up a masterpiece

@@perrotortugaestacogido You can really call any of their albums adventurous. Disco Volante’s my fav, but Illinois barely wins by a bitty margin. The transition on California from track 1 to 2 still blows me away tho hahaha!
Hey Everyone, I see a lot of you are commenting and stuff. I just uploaded the album because the Discord bot i was using didn't managed to play the song so i tried putting it under my YT Channel and i forgot to put the video in private. oops.
I cant believe i shrugged off this album for so long, it sounded boring when i first heard bits and pieces of it without context, and i ended up depriving myself of such beautiful melodies
I know people in their 50s or 60s who still listen to the same old stuff, hanging on to it, not growing in their musical taste one bit. It's fine for them, but I've always felt sorry for them. My musical taste has changed enormously since I was young (except one core element: I've always loved beautiful harmonies and melodies). I can appreciate and even love music that I would have probably hated when I was younger. And I'm so glad I can do that, since it opens up new worlds... and Sufjan Stevens is a world in itself which I've only recently discovered. I'm 51, by the way.
I love the Midwest! Driving from Detroit, Sufjan's birthplace, to Chicago or New York, and listening to this music is just awesome. The Midwest is also the birthplace of Prince, Madonna, Michael Jackson, and many other musicians.
Born and raised in Illinois (southern). I now live in a shit hole called Florida and I too long for the Midwest. Can’t wait to move back. Hope you can a visit sometime!
Such an iconic masterpiece. This album has it all. This work is so complete, with mezmerizing, rich, diverse instrumentation and expertly crafted, beautiful themes. Its timeless. In my opinion, one of the most interesting, captivating, complete albums ive ever heard.
Marvellous masterpiece that points in so many directions. It aims for the future without neglecting the past. Although this is not prog rock (at least as it used to be in the 70s), for me there's a clear attitude towards music and art that can only qualify as "progressive". Thank God and thank Sufjan for such amazing music.
@@yo4156 nothing pedantic about helping someone out. I would rather someone corrected me like this than to go on using a word wrongly all my life. I feel I was rather polite in my correction...
I used to listen to this album all the time when I was a young child in the early 00s, in the car mostly, along with other albums from the time like Aerial by Kate Bush, and The Rising by Bruce Springsteen. Whenever I hear it I feel melancholy. Melancholy is what Victor Hugo called "the happiness of being sad". I think that's it. I find my mind is full of light when the piano begins at the start of the album (although the very first sound you hear is the creak of a piano stool, or a creaky piano pedal or something). But throughout the album, memories move in my mind's eye when I listen. The past doesn't exactly come alive in my head, but it half-lives, it half comes alive: I can not quite but almost see that beautiful light my memories are full of, a long summer I feel like I will never encounter again, like that. Sufjan is a creator of beautiful things. I thank him for that. If I ever meet him I will personally thank him for being one that can create such beautiful music.
I love this album so much. Blew my mind when I was 19 and still does now at 26. So many great tracks, jacksonville, decatur, casimir pulaski day, predatory wasp of the pallisades, seers tower, and the intro concerning the ufo sighting are my favourites. This is a great album to get lost in it's just pure creativity
The predatory wasps of the pallisades are out ro get us! is one of my favorite songs on this album and I have loved it since I was a young teenager. Now years later I have a young daughter who just this summer learned to fear wasps and this song reminds me how no matter how much I love and care for her, there will be things that I cannot (always) protect her from, like wasps, or the loss of a friend.
I come back to this album at least once a year and it floors me every time - it's absolutely amazing. I'm from Ireland but first time I listened to it I was travelling back and form to the US around the great lakes and so really brings back memories and emotions that really match the music.
Rapidly approaching mine too. Chicago is a particular highlight. So much creativity & consideration on every single track. Just about as close to perfection as you can get imho. Only caught it by algorithmic chance about 2 weeks back. Smitten since. Pure Gold! 😀
@@un_cog9677 In your opinion at least. I prefer Michigan, Seven Swans, and Illinois all in comparison to The Age of Adz. It was a big departure for me. More a reflection of his state of mind.
the first time i listened to this album, few years back now my step grandad was in hospital, recovering from a very bad shake in his health, but he was on the mend. i was going to see him the week after so when my parents asked me if i wanted to go (but told me not to, since it would be a boring day and id see him the week after), but i declined and instead sat and listened to this album for the first time, along with some of my favourite albums from other artists at the time (we're talking moenie and kitcki, i need to start a garden, pretty standard stuff) and i just knew something was different that night idk what it was. anyways, he died that night. and i think that says everything about just how much this album means to me.
Thank you for sharing. I have that same kind of connection with an entirely different artist and album: George Michael - Older. I remember listening to it while lying down on the couch at home, headphones on, with right next to me my dad lying on a medical bed, dying of cancer... back in january1997. I'm still wondering how I could have listened to that stuff and actually enjoy it... but the truth is, I did. It was a thing of beauty that kept me going in dark times. It's that same link between special music and life changing events.
Absolutely one of my favorite albums. ❤❤❤ I know it’ll probably never happen, but it be would be so cool if Sufjan went back to this project and wrote A song PER state (not a full album for each state lol)
It’d be cool but I think Illinois and Michigan are special states because they have personal connections for him. I’m unsure if he has a link to every other state
Crazy AMAZING isn't it. Just makes you wonder how many other diamonds there are lurking in youtube's auto-suggestion algorithms. I stumbled upon it probably a month ago after a Radiohead catch-up binge. It's so deliberately and beautifully 'wonky'. Just love the whole vibe of it. I'm hoping to visit the midwest from the UK this year, my girl lives in Iowa.
Ay first, I really didint like this. Seemed too pretentious and didint like the vocals. But over time, this album grew on me so much, and now it’s one of my favorites and can say with confidence this is a masterpiece.
Hola Soy latino, no sé inglés y siempre creí que la trama del álbum trataba de Extraterrestres llegando a Illinois la noche de Navidad, dónde también se celebra el cumpleaños de un niño que no se llama Jesús, Al niño se le pierde su cabra mascota, y a la familia se le pierde el cumpleañero en la gran ciudad y deben buscarlo en lo que avistan los platillos voladores aterrizando para comunicarse con los humanos, y los humanos no es que quieran serlo (y mucho menos en víspera de fiestas) pero son unos idiotas o tienen miedo porque no hay baldes de agua fría para calmarse y escuchar, Prueba de esto es un detective que va protegiendo la ciudad de absolutamente nada en lo que se aproximan fuerzas militares al lugar, afortunadamente ningún alien resultó herido porque tienen muy mala puntería, ya tendrán una idea de quién fue el único niño que escuchó a los aliens sin cubrirse los ojos ;) El resto de la historia se escribe solo.

And then he moved to New York and never made anything as beautiful as this ever again. The Onion also turned to crap when they moved to NYC. I don’t get why artists move to NY.
He moved to new york basically right after his debut album was released, the entirety of this album was written and recorded there, so I'm unsure what you're going on about.
He was living in New York when he wrote this and its predecessor Seven Swans. Subsequent releases All delighted People Age of ADZ, Carrie and Lowell are all beautiful IMO. Sorry bruh
I have tried to get into it 😕, but am not feeling it. Very odd, considering I like almost everything. After repeated listens It seems boring or a cliche some how. Sorry, but no. 👎 😞
Just returned from NYC where u saw this ( may 2024) on broadway- I cried , laughed & was deeply moved -
If you get a chance to see this it’s unbelievably amazing!
The dancers were just incredible. My son and I both cried holding hands during one part of the performance!
There’s no dialogue -
I am a southerner by birth but I know now why New Yorkers never want to leave ! The shows!!
How many can't wait for Broadway??? Yahoooooooooo Great Illinoise!
saw it first weekend... phenomenal
@@thesidarlucky you!
@@thesidar ohhhh i'm soo jelly! so glad it was good. I'm in Vancouver so kinda far. hopefully it tours!
Just saw it yesterday! It’s brilliant! Justin Peck really made this album a visual masterpiece as well as an auditory one now! 💜
What!? This is on Broadway! Holy Cow. That is amazing.
I’m in tears now. I’ve been looking for this album and this artist for a while because i partially lost some memories and i finally found this album … and i just realized that i recently listened to mystery of love !! I’ve been already connected!!
Congrats on being able to discover Sufjan Steven's music twice at least! Sorry about your memory though.
Happens to the best of us. Just watched the show The Bear featuring Chicago and had a blast from the past. Now I'm here, remembering.
Here's another beautiful album, if you are still looking for new loveliness 😸 czcams.com/video/uXTdOefqGf0/video.html

I agree. Lots of unique instrument blends, odd time signatures, and musical diversity make this album feel so progressive yet so fluid and accessible.
This album is so underrated among publicity but it gained so much critical acclaim. I love the complexion of his music.

And then he moved to New York and never made anything as beautiful as this ever again. The Onion also turned to crap when they moved to NYC. I don’t get why artists move to NY.
He moved to new york basically right after his debut album was released, the entirety of this album was written and recorded there, so I'm unsure what you're going on about.
He was living in New York when he wrote this and its predecessor Seven Swans. Subsequent releases All delighted People Age of ADZ, Carrie and Lowell are all beautiful IMO. Sorry bruh
I just don't get it.
ok

I have tried to get into it 😕, but am not feeling it. Very odd, considering I like almost everything. After repeated listens It seems boring or a cliche some how. Sorry, but no. 👎 😞
