Aphera Music

You gave a few interviews this year in which you implied that you’re suffering from writer’s block and creating musical equivalents of Gigli. You said specifically, “A narrative song with accompaniment– is really beyond me now….And I don’t think I can win; I feel like it’s a losing battle.”

But I have to ask – what are you talking about?!! Just this year, live versions of your new song, ‘There’s Too Much Love’, and others appeared on YouTube and I attacked them ferociously as if being thrown scraps of delicious genius from your mixing table. I mean, they were just so incredible. I couldn’t get enough. And not to forget that earlier this year you exquisitely covered ‘You Are The Blood’ by the Castanets for Dark Was The Night. LISTEN HERE

Sufjan, please, no more of your self-fulfilling prophecies. Please just re-listen to this (below), and take back what you meant when you said, “I’m at a point where I no longer have a deep desire to share my music with anyone.” Take it back, we need this in studio form – please.

Respectfully,

Larissa
