come on feel the illinoise

• sufjan stevens'ın adını amerika'nın eyaletlerinden alan bir albümü daha, 2005 tarihli. stevens bir önceki için greetings from michigan, the great lakes state'i bile aşmış bence "come on feel the illinoise" ile (albümün ismi çoğu yerde ya illinois ya da illinoise olarak geçmekte, ancak albümün kapağı incelendiği takdirde adının "come on feel the illinoise" olduğu görülebilir).
  neticede muazzam bir eser bu; piyano, banjo, akustik gitar, yaylılar ve elliott smith'vari (ama ondan daha güzel) bir vokal. şimdiden bir klasik.
