i feel it!

Come on, feel the love for Sufjan!

Congratulations, Mr. Stevens, on winning the first Pantheon Music Prize. Check out the Pitchfork article and read all about how Sufjan was chosen over lots of other amazing releases, including ones from Fiona Apple, Death Cab for Cutie, Bloc Party, The Decemberists and The Arcade Fire.

In honor of Sufjan's well-deserved achievement, here are some fun downloads from the folkster.
  • Sufjan takes on the holiday classics in three volumes of Christmas Albums on the Irresponsible Journalism blog.

  • Listen to Sufjan perform live on an exclusive KEXP acoustic show in Seattle last July.

  • If the politicians are going to add protection for the Pledge of Allegiance in public schools, then maybe they can add Sufjan's version of the "Star-Spangled Banner" on Muzzle of Bees.

  • Work For It posted a few remixes of Sufjan's songs.

  • And because I heart cover songs, here's a link to Sufjan's version of REM's "The One I Love" on the excellent Music For Kids Who Can't Read Good blog.
