  • I love Sufjan Stevens, but I don’t see the comparison. While I really love his lyrics (one of the few I actually like them, I usually find most artist lyrics to be plain and way too cheesy), his music is very simple compared to a behemoth like Mozart.

    Mozart was able to write highly complex music very fast, that went from deep themes to silly ones, and enjoyed popularity from both critics and public, which is something quite rare.

    I don’t which one would be the closest today. Maybe something like Williams or Ennio Morricone.



  • It’s easier if you don’t think it as actual gender, and just as grammar. You have “el televisor” (masculine) and “la tele” o “la tv” (femenine), both meaning “the tv”. It’s more about how the word ends than anything.

    Still, it’s something that if someone gets it wrong, it sounds off but everyone still understands. No one is going to care for a foreigner saying that wrong. There’s no really a confusion to be had there.

    But time/weather can lead to actual misunderstandings.
