Visions of Gideon

Visions of Gideon is a song by the New York based multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter, Sufjan Stevens. His songs from the film, Call Me By Your Name are atmospheric and layered. The soundtrack also features avant-garde classical works and music by composer, Ryuichi Sakamoto (The Revenant).

I prefer Visions of Gideon from the soundtrack. The chord progression ticks-all-the-boxes for me. The lyrics are delightfully weird -- and I found this reddit comment explaining the meaning behind the, "is it a video" line.

Call Me By Your Name is an academy award nominated movie, by director, Luca Guadagnino.
