The World Forgot

So a few weeks after I wrote a rambling letter imploring Sufjan Stevens to return to his fans and release a new album he has sorta, kinda, maybe responded by teasing us a little bit.  On his blog {which is really just a slice of his label’s website, Asthmatic Kitty}, he occaisionally drops a stream of consciousness post about his past.  On August 24th he talked about his name, how he tried to change it when he was young, and how as an  undergrad at university he wrote an entire album about names.  Apparently the other day he stumbled upon some old recordings and he graciously decided to allow us to hear a track he penned about Sofia Coppola.  Although it’s not technically new music from Sufjan it is new to all of us.  Enjoy.

And who knows, maybe if I keep writing open letters on the internet we might see a new album before 2012.  Which would be good, because that’s when the world ends.
