Bon Iver. I've never been a huge fan of Sufjan Stevens outside of his Christmas stuff.

Really dug "Come on Feel the Illinoise"...

Very meh about everything else Sufjan has done. I was friends with a girl who went to see Sufjan Stevens in concert. She was a huge fan. And described it as the worst concert she's ever been to. By the way, she went to Rhode Island School of Design. It's ranked much higher than Ringling Brothers in Orlando... for what it's worth.

Sufjan just doesn't have any real memorable songs. Nothing that will be remembered 20 years from now like Skinny Love.

Definitely not as accessible as Skinny Love.

But "Chicago" will stick with me too.

kinda the same, although I do appreciate those who don't follow the standard path.
I think St. Vincent is probably the best thing Sufjan has produced.

Also, Bon Iver's cover of I Can't Make You Love Me is one of my favorites.
