A love affair for life...but damn you, Geffen Records!
I LOVE RUFUS! I have spent a fortune collecting all his work. . and all those soundtracks, my dear!. . . and have just forked out £85. . . nearly $200. . . to see his sole London appearance in March. Everything he does is unique, vital, and the work of total genius. This album is no exception. Buy it NOW!
OK. . . Geffen. I have already paid £20. . . $40. . . for this CD on import, and now I am more than a little dismayed to see those dreaded words "bonus tracks" rear their ugly head again. Why not put these tracks out on the original issue, so that the faithful are treated to the full set? Of course, I will buy the album again. I want those tracks. And you know I do. Which is why you do it! But please consider the fans before you do it again. . .
Rufus, I love you. x.


Best Album of The Year!
This is a funny story. . well, not really but I'll tell you anyway: I bought Rufus Wainwright's first album a few years ago-based purely on the fact he was Louden Wainwright's son-and as it turns out he's gay-HAS to be cool! Anyway, upon my first "unprepared" listening I was shocked! "Oh my God", I thought, "This is shlock!. . . How could I have? Possibly thrown my money away on this?". . . Then I listened again. Somehow I had to force myself. I could not believe what I was hearing. Pure! Original! Like nothing I had ever heard before. . . Now I can't wait for anything he puts out. WANT ONE was a classic-but WANT TWO is truly a MASTERPIECE! I know it will probably never make "Top of the Pops" (as Ray Davies mights say) but this album is unbelievable! Poetry, innocence, sensuality, A true wordsmith-What vivid word pictures! Wonderfully instrumental! Great musician! Great Album! Uno! dos! Tres! Cinco!!!.


I didn't think he could top "Want One"
I have no idea what box to put Rufus Wainwright's music in. But he did. When I listen to this CD I hear folk music from Canada, old sexy swing nightclub music, Schumann, Mozart, The Beatles, Elton John . . . it's all here with that incredible voice and piano playing. I think "Waiting for a Dream" is my favorite, I'm not sure . . . Every day I seem to have a new song from this CD that stays with me.
