Heard this on the radio tonight, and realised two things:
(1) I haven't listened to this song in ages, and
(2) I absolutely and utterly love this song to pieces...

It's appropriate that one of the greatest American albums in recent memory was released on July 4th! Sufjan Stevens' 'Illinois' was released 10 years ago today, a sprawling concept album of unbelievable musical riches full of the geography, history, attractions, myths and traditions of the 5th most populous U.S. state. 'Chicago' may well be the best song Stevens has ever recorded - enjoy this clip and my article on this fascinating record! http://www.thestudentplaylist.com/sufjan-stevens-illinois/
One of the highlights of my music listening life.
