Decatur and a notebook

I heard tell that Sufjan Stevens is abandoning his "one album for every state" project with only 48 states to go. While it would have been nice to see what he could have done with California, New York and Texas (among others), he will no doubt continue making delightful music in his own inimitable style. It'll be interesting to see what he comes up with next.

This is up, however, not because it's my favorite track off of this album, but because it's among the most adorable videos I have ever seen. It overpowers my irony circuits every time I see it, and it would be a guilty pleasure if I felt guilty about it at all. It's part of Said the Gramophone's Wonderful Video Contest. Worth looking into.

"Decatur"
Come On! Feel the Illinoise!


Tomorrow: African fast food!
