"Cure in the Mountains" was originally written as an acoustic track by Cody Nicolas. The song was then released with a video of the acoustic, string arrangement performed in an abandoned pool. The album version incorporates the acoustic arrangement of "Cure in the Mountains" as well as the live performance version you can expect to hear at a La De Les concert.
lyrics
No need to worry.
There is a cure in the mountains.
We just need to climb.

It may not be a full-fledged LP, but All Delighted People is probably my favourite of Sufjan's works. Without an overaching album theme to tie the songs together, it felt like Sufjan was free to experiment on each track and give them their own unique sound. And because of that (and Sufjan's talent), every track on there is a standout track. Angkasawan
