I think that Sufjan’s songs are really honest as a whole. I am under the impression that he is a Christian and does have faith in God, meaning to me that he believes, as the bible says, that homosexuality is wrong. This doesn’t mean he couldn’t have had problems with homosexuality. From listening to “The Predatory Wasp Of The Palisades Is Out To Get Us” it sounds like he struggled with homosexual temptations. As for “John Wayne Gacy, Jr” I interpret the last lines as saying that no matter what any of us do in life, our “best behavior” and our good deeds that we think we do are no better than any of the horrific things John Wayne Gacy, Jr ever did.

You’re a fucktard. I can’t say that Sufjan isn’t gay because I don’t know for sure. But I do know that your reasonings for him being homosexual aweful. Research his music and you’ll find that his songs are about historical events, NOT HIS. For instance, in the album “Illinois” and song “John Wayne Gracy Jr”, that is not about him, it’s about John Wayne Gracy Jr. (My God, it’s about the song name??!!!) (Who would have thought?) He was a creepy guy that dressed up like a clown and would rape males. NOT Sufjan. I hope this helps you, dumbass.

Hahahahahahahaha..

“Yes, Sufjan Stevens is totally gay and wants to fuck you, like, right now!”
That made me laugh. And yeah, I typed “sufjan stevens gay” and got here. Just because I just now read on his site that he enjoys “knitting, crocheting, weaving, cleaning” among other typically gay interests. So I was curious.

oh my gosh….your kidding me right? You think he is gay? Are you really that shallow to not find anything more deep in his lyrics. He is not saying he is LIKE john wayne gacy jr. in a way like “I like to rape little boys,” but more in a way as “I am completely and utterly misunderstood.” Sufjan Stevens also has a faith in the Lord, and that is what most of his songs are about, not about homosexuality

why do you people care. the thing that really matters is that he keeps making such good music and by the way most of the songs that people use to question his straightness are from seven swans and thats about his beliefs about religion not sexuality.

I got here by typing ‘how do you say sufjan stevens’. btw sort out the music thing that starts automatically on every page. It’s a bit annoying, we’ve got our own music.

haha
that’s exactly how i got here:
a google search using the keyword,
“Sufjan Stevens gay”

I only thought this; however, because after listening to “Illinois” for like the 3rd or 4th time i realized in, “The Predatory Wasp of the Pallisades is out to Get Us!”, he sings about kissing a boy..
