Sufjan Stevens let loose another, more electronic, track from his upcoming LP, The Age of Adz.
Sufjan Stevens “Too Much” [download]
Like it? Me, too. But now I’m gonna ruin it for you.
Doesn’t the chorus of ‘Too much, too much, too much …‘ remind you a little of Marvin Gaye‘s “Sexual Healing”? Especially where he sings ‘Wake up, wake up, wake up …’
Marvin Gaye “Sexual Healing”
No? You’re not listening hard enough. Here’s a bonus to cleanse your lobes.
Hot 8 Brass Band “Sexual Healing”
You’re welcome.

Remember how Sufjan Stevens was gonna do an album for every state? I think he’s done like two in six years. C’mon man.
Illustrator, writer, and designer, Frank Chimero, has been turning the silhouettes of our 50 states into animals and other stuff for only a year. He’s already done 17. Take that, Sufjan.
See all of Chris’ states here. Or snag prints here.
