In light of new music by Father John Misty, I was inspired to listen to Fleet Foxes' 2011 album Helplessness Blues. 

This is the video for the title track, one of the most beautiful modern folk pieces I can recall.

(Note: J. Tillman did not perform on this album)

I was raised up believing
I was somehow unique
Like a snowflake distinct among 

Snowflakes, unique in each way
You'd Conceive.
And now after some thinking
I'd say I'd rather be
A functioning cog in some great
Machinery, serving something beyond me.
