Man of a Million Faces

NPR’s “Project Song” got Stephin Merritt in the studio for 48 hours. Merritt wrote a cool song called “Man of a Million Faces.”

From a group of six photos and six words, The Magnetic Fields guru Stephin Merritt picked “1974″ — and an image of a man wearing a kind of suit covered with baby dolls. Two days later, the song they inspired was finished.
