Every live song he plays it's like: Steven: *Says something completely bananas about his childhood that may or may not be true* "Anyway, here's a song that has absolutely nothing to do with that."
How can someone, with a deep voice like that, sing so high and light. Lovely and absolutely amazing.

He uses a lot of breath when he sings but all the notes are comfortably within a baritone range, he rarely goes above an E4 with his chest voice

Chills. I took my 8 year old daughter to see him as her first show. He was incredible.

You could practice for 1000 years and not be *this* good. Being this good is a gift.

I don't think you can call being a god, "a gift" lol
Chills! Love how the song names are like novella titles. Glad these people were born and decided to create music. Human beings can be so awesome.
This version is just AMAZING, I got goose bumps all over the place
Wish he'd re-record this version. It's simply magic.
His voice takes me places mentally. What a gift he has 😊👍🏽
oh my god, this is better quality than what I could see with my eyes irl.
Great drums, great slide guitar, this version rules!!!!
I am here for the 1000th time and still can’t get over how good this live is

Why would I ever want to skip the story of Jimmy John, you monster
His lyrics , his stories , what a musician , saw him live once and what a 2 hour stretch that was . Everyone was so respectful and calm and just enjoyed the music .
Best version of this song, no doubt!
I would give my right kneecap to see him play this song,as well as just see him,live...

This is insane. Thank you so much for taking these high quality videos. This is one of my favorite songs of his and what I loved about the recording was how minamalist it was with the banjo but I absolutely love what they did with the live version to spice it up.
Enchanting, the melody lingered with me for days!
Eventually Celtic Woman is going to get their hands on one of these Sufjan ballads.
Still think this might be his most beautiful song. I need to get a banjo just so I can learn this one. Thanks for posting!
This live version is so much better than the original thank you so much for this amazing quality !!!!
chills when he started singing and chills again when the band came in
One of the most beautiful songs ever
This performance was so much better than I had anticipated
Very cool version, great upload
God I love him. The only song that makes me cry
Oh wow, this is somehow more beautiful than the recorded version
to see this live version officially released on streaming services would be amazing! I love the original, but this version has so much energy, especially during the chorus!

beautiful perfection oh god...
Such a good version of this song. What a talent!
This song is beautiful.
Stunning arrangements...what a sound.
What a beautiful human.
this was on the ideal home soundtrack, love this song
best between songs talk ever! and that slide thing........
Much better than the album version, which I feel drags. Breathes a whole new life unto the song.
I love this song, thanks for sharing!
after a bad day this song gives you peace
I fell in love with that voice
this banter bring tears. too sweet
Sufjan is my personal lord and savior.
He´s crying?? His eyes are shining! :3 Is cute!! ;3
This is just so beautiful, thank you for uploading
So happy your recorded and posted this. Thank you!
Wear your love like heaven .
this is so good! #myfavouritesong
thanks for posting this
thank you for taking this video
This is better than the studio version. Damn!
I'm shook.❤
my heart just broke
Just heard this song in a movie and had to find it here on KZread. This is the 3rd or fourth version of it in a row I've listened to now. Trying to learn the lyrics. Yes, I know, there is a vid w the lyrics listed in the comments. Watched that before this one. But I like the different live versions. Listened to this at regular speed a couple of times. Then at 1.25x speed, then 1.5x speed, then 2x speed. Then back down the ladder to regular 1x speed. On this kind of slow but still cool version w the drums it all sounds good, but in different ways. Try it and see what you think.
