Take a look at the video for 'Tell Me You Love Me' below.
Sufjan Stevens has returned with a new music video for 'Tell Me You Love Me', directed by Luca Guadagnino. Stevens previously collaborated with the Italian director on the soundtrack for Call Me By Your Name – with his original song 'Mystery of Love' earning an Oscar nomination.
'Tell me You Love Me' was among the standout tracks on Stevens' latest album, The Ascension – released back in September.
"The Ascension brims with darkness, foreboding and a healthy suspicion of social media (the unfiltered cigarettes of the 21st century, upon which so many of us are cheerfully puffing)," Ed Power wrote in his review of the album for Hot Press. "However, it’s also one of the catchiest things he has ever done."
"Stevens wears his heart on his sleeve here, and even more so on ‘Tell Me You Love Me’, crooning “I’ve lost my faith in everything”, before concluding that human connection will see him through," he continued. "These are difficult times and some of us are going through our own traumas. But this album is empathic and joyous and will give you something to cling onto, even in the darkest hours."
