"Wildfires" easily, though I seem to be in the minority so far.

Going with my nom Smile

I've never watched the film the track is based on, but... maybe one day. I'm still spinning A Beginner's Mind quite often (or, at least on shuffle). I think it's one of Sufjan's top three. Lovely work throughout, and the explosive psych burst of Back to Oz is one of my favourite tracks by him. Reminds me of that irreplaceable something-something Chicago has.

Sufjan Stevens & Angelo De Augustine - Back To Oz
I didn't pay much attention to the whole album at the time of release.
However, my interest in this application increased with each round.
At first I was hooked by the lyrics, then the emotions intensified with the video next to it.
Now it's the turn of musical insight.

SAULT - Wildfires
In the last round, I voted against.
This is a well-known project, but with some kind of internal code of silence.
No video, not even photos.
I lacked the curiosity to take another step.
The lyrics offered a motivation that would suit any detective.
But for me it is too simple and inexplicable at the same time.
On this tour, I choose this song as more rhythmic.

Both are great, I initially intended to go with Wildfires, but Sufjan somehow won me over.
