Sufjan Stevens has already given us some freaky videos for songs from his new Silver & Gold: Songs For Christmas EP box set, but the newest, for his way-out version of “Joy To The World” may be the freakiest yet. It pretty much just shows a chattering video-game chipmunk, its image looped and turned kaleidoscopic [...]

Sufjan Stevens’s holiday-themed EP box set Silver & Gold: Songs For Christmas comes out today, and he’s already made two very, very different videos for songs from the EP: The splattery satire of “Mr. Frosty Man” and the familial warmth of “Silver & Gold.” Now, in the ...
