The Transfiguration was my first favorite Sufjan song, the first listened to on a loop so consistent as to be read, from afar, as madness. The first time, we watched with about 20 other people, on the floor in front of a tiny stage on an ancient boat. His band almost larger than the crowd. He played this song first. All 20 people wondered what magic we'd stumbled upon. Years later, we watched with about 300 other people, on rumbling floor boards in an old ballroom, and though I desperately wanted to hear it, I knew he wouldn't play it. And then he did. Here's the live recording from that show. Give it to your soul on a loop.
