City of Roses歌曲歌词：
A break in the clouds is a break in my day
Face the sun of my salvation
As Hathaway Jones would have made it his own fate
Fly by the wings of your creation
On the top of your head, there is a poem
The thought in my head, oh God only knows
As everything else will disappoint you
I used to be young and bold, but now I’m afraid, I’m getting so old
I follow delight to the City of Roses
It’s a little-known fact that I can’t cope
I’m the champion of repression
I’ve had it enough with the east coast
I’ll die by the wings of my ambition
The city I left, the city of throes
The one that I loved, the city of hope
As everything else will disappoint you
I used to be young and bold, but now I’m of age, I’m getting so old
I follow delight to the City of Roses
A break in the clouds is a break in my day

从艺历程：Sufjan Stevens高中时学习双簧管，大学时专研斑鸠琴，随后不论是吉他、钢琴、手风琴、曼陀林、敲击乐器等，都成了Sufjan的精通范围。成为专职音乐家前，这名全才的乐器演奏能手也曾是科幻小说的作家与时代杂志的内页设计师。出道以来音乐风格之变化多端，与他精彩的职场履历恰可比拟。
第二张专辑Enjoy Your Rabbit以中国的十二生肖为题，玩的却是光怪陆离的电子即兴曲风；第四张专辑Seven Swans（音速青春2004十大专辑）以斑鸠琴为主导，笃信基督教的Sufjan透过缓慢的民谣曲势，探讨着宗教信仰、家庭价值与个人情感三者间的纠葛，词与曲皆充满着深度与力量。而第三张专辑Michigan与最新专辑Illinois，则是Sufjan Stevens另一个异想天开却又让人拍案叫绝的音乐狂想。
对Sufjan来说，所谓的50 States Project一开始只是广告文案式的幽默宣传手法，目的是推销Michigan – 一张以自己成长家乡为主题的概念专辑。然而音乐质地细致多元的Michigan不但一举打响了Sufjan Stevens的名号，蜂拥而至的好评也迫使Sufjan重新审视这个计划的可能性 – 以美国的五十州为命题蓝本，替他们各自创作一张唱片。
