    Nick, my 18-year-old son loves Sufjan. He’s got several of his albums, from iTunes. Sometimes we play them in the car — they are always very interesting songs and arrangements. The tracks are so highly produced — I wonder how may instruments are ‘loops’ and how many are real humans playing. My son says that Sufjan plays all the instruments, but I have my doubts.

    Nick, you can listen to the entire collection of Songs for Christmas at xmas.asthmatickitty.com

    There is also a smorgasbord of other materials on the site by Sufjan’s record label. Lastly, I think Sufjan’s name is pronounced more like this: SOO-fee-yawn. It’s said quickly though.

    Merry Christmas!
