Sufjan Stevens – The Man of Metropolis Steals Our Hearts Lyrics | 16 years ago |
This song's actual meaning is dedicated to that of famous poet Carl Sandburg. While it can be interpreted to that of Superman, it's truth is to that of Sandburg. Sandburg worked as a news reporter at the Chicago Daily News (first four lines of the song) and the reference to "Man of Steel, Man of Heart" refers to his love of Industry and Man's dominion in such as shown in his poems included in Smoke and Steel (1920). The rest of the song falls into shape as an ode to Carl Sandburg once you look at it in this context. For further reference, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Sandburg |
