Ones that go beyond Christmas and are on my playlist all year. Something for you to look forward to!<br /><br />Yes, melancholia is my middle name too LOL!Ciara Brehonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10583812950426579762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2899098523153759626.post-43341758831416850212010-01-07T08:04:16.712+00:002010-01-07T08:04:16.712+00:00Ciara, I, too, love Sufjan Stevens, and I don'...Ciara, I, too, love Sufjan Stevens, and I don't own his Christmas set yet, so you know I will be asking for it for my birthday this year, which falls in October, meaning I'll get to listen to his Christmas songs from mid-October all the way through the holidays. That will be so amazing! <br /><br />I have Casimir Pulaski Day on my shuffle right now, and it's one of the songs I listen to more than any others. You know, of course, that I tend toward the melancholic!<br /><br />xo GigiGigi Thibodeauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15326335927273800932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2899098523153759626.post-11920659778176774912009-12-23T14:09:10.596+00:002009-12-23T14:09:10.596+00:00You've no idea how happy I am to find someone ...You've no idea how happy I am to find someone who loves all the same music as me! Music defines me more than anything else, and it defines my day, my year, everything about my life. I cannot live without it. But, as is evidenced by the number of comments on this blog, fellow fans are few and far between!! So I'm doubly delighted to meet you!<br /><br />I do have to refrain here from gushing too much about the likes of Justin Vernon and Sufjan Stevens, but these guys mean so much to me. Some days the beauty of their music gives me wings and I soar, some days it clutches at my heart so tightly I could (and do) cry from the pain of it. Can something be too beautiful?<br /><br />As it happened I did read your Casimir Pulaski Day post last night! So beautiful, and so moving. Thanks for sharing. What an incredibly sad song. But what an incredibly happy association you now have!<br /><br />Looking forward to future music sharing! Off now to check out your recommendations and video's, thanks!Ciara Brehonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10583812950426579762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2899098523153759626.post-19468062231374303802009-12-22T02:38:13.635+00:002009-12-22T02:38:13.635+00:00Ciara - I loved this.

I wrote about Sufjan the early <a href="http://thebinsubtle.blogspot.com/2008/09/cryin-in-bathroom.html" rel="nofollow">morning that I took my pregnancy test</a>. His song, Casimir Pulaski Day, holds extra special meaning for me to this day. I just wrote you about how similar our musical tastes are but my link didn't work - it's www dot myspace dot com forwardslash nainsi_bansidhe if you want to see a clip of the bon iver concert i attended in toronto. i also caught Sam Beam (iron and wine) the previous autumn. you might like hannah georgas. do you know coconut records? joanna newsom is someone an ex-boyfriend introduced me to. but i love sufjan. i love a man who isn't afraid to get up and sing wearing beautiful wings on his back. what a special spirit he is! thanks for this post.nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11413772615235003332noreply@blogger.com
