Fourth Of July by Sufjan Stevens
“The evil it spread like a fever ahead It was night when you died, my firefly What could I have said to raise you from the dead? Oh could I be the sky on the Fourth of July? From Sufjan's new album about his mother and stepfather. Sounds great, listen to it at http://www.npr.org/2015/03/22/393575866/first-listen-sufjan-stevens-carrie-lowell”

"Make the most of your life, while it is rife, while it is light." Q1 of 2015 has had more good music in it already than I can remember from practically the whole of 2014, and this might be the best song of its best album. <3

"The hospital asked should the body be cast
Before I say goodbye, my star in the sky
Such a funny thought to wrap you up in cloth
Do you find it all right, my dragonfly?"
