Sufjan Stevens started his famous "The Fifty States Project" in 2003, the goal of which was to record an album about every state of the United States of America. He made two LPs about his two favorite states - Michigan and Illinois. The first album, simply titled "Michigan", was released in 2003. He constructed the image of Michigan from the point of view of a person who was born and grew up there, then migrated to New York City and was sentimental about the region of their childhood. Each song was a homage to the beloved home state, telling stories about places, people, cities and natural sites. This LP is a very interesting piece that not only lets one study the way in which the author constructs the image of one‘-s homeland, but also how he deconstructs the stereotypes, publicizes some regional issues, and at the same time promotes the state through music. Because of that, the main purpose of this book is to research Sufjan Stevens‘-s album in the context of the image of the state of Michigan it represents. Moreover, the analysis of "Michigan" provides valuable information about the popular culture in general - how instrumental can it be in shaping one‘-s impression about a particular place, what is the role of the author of a specific cultural text, what artistic measures are used to construct such an impression, and what effects it may cause.
