Sufjan Stevens: Tonya Harding (Colored Vinyl) Vinyl 7"

"At the end of the day, Tonya Harding was just an ordinary woman with extraordinary talent and a tireless work ethic who set out to do her very best. She did that and more." Sufjan Stevens had this to say (and more) about the subject of his latest single, Tonya Harding. Though most will know the Olympic figure skater for the tabloid drama and Nancy Kerrigan scandal, Sufjan digs deeper and considers the wholeness of the person that is Tonya Harding. Apparently it has taken the folk singer almost 30 years to put the song together, and thankfully he has finally done it, with warmness and grace (plus a little help from Helado Negro and Doveman on production). This limited edition vinyl pressing feature two versions of "Tonya Harding," and comes on blue colored vinyl, complete with pic sleeve featuring artwork from Stephen Halker. Limited edition of 2,000.
