I like most all of his work but Illinois is his strongest work in my opinion. Has there ever been a song about a serial killer more haunting and beautiful than this one? -Damn.

No! There hasn't! blackbootz I love Age of Adz but Illinois will remain Sufjan's magnum opus.

Haha I must clarify. When I said most commercially successful I meant just that, Age of Adz made him the most money. Illinoise may or may not be "better" but it was mostly torrented or shared, not bought.

I'm surprised he didn't make more $ off Illinois. It was featured in a number of ads and was the soundtrack for "Little Miss Sunshine" -I think.
