Anyone here dislike Sufjan Stevens?
KharBevNor:
I'm going to write an insipid singer-songwriter album about all the things I step on during the day! It's going to be so amazing!

There's your problem right there.
As for Sufjan, I like him. Don't really know what more to say.
schimmy:
I still don't get it, Khar. Are you saying that Sufjan isn't original, or that originality isn't important?
TrueNeutral:
No, I'm pretty sure he's saying that some things don't get songs written about them because there don't need to be any songs written about them, yet that's what Sufjan Stevens keeps writing songs about.
Now I feel like writing a song about how some people keep writing songs about things that don't get songs written about them because there don't need to be any songs written about them.

Pretty much. Also, that writing songs about unusual things isn't really terribly original. Each individual thing may be original, but tons of people have written about random esoteric things before. You can't claim originality just because you're the first ever person to write a ballad about balancing six club flyers on a can of aerosol or something.
