Rufus Wainwright
I'm really loving his stuff a lot lately. Any other fans around here? I've been falling in love with Want One the last couple of weeks. Haven't heard Want Two yet, but will soon as I'm getting it for my wife (who got me into him) for Christmas (among other things)...is it any good?

1. ...is awesome.
Unique voice and it puts me into a certain mood that I don't get from other music.

2. His pop Loudon isn't that bad either.
Edited on Mon Dec-06-04 04:28 PM by ET Awful
Both are great musicians.

His sister Martha is also a singer/songwriter who I've heard good things about, but haven't actually heard perform yet.

edit: I guess I have heard Martha, just didn't know it. She sang with Dan Bern on a song on his Smartie Mine album. If you haven't heard Dan Bern, he's another one I highly recommend checking out :)

edit again: (fixed reference to Loudon as brother . . . had a brain cramp).

I've loved him ever since, but unfortunately haven't picked up the latest album yet. Great songwriter, beautiful voice. :loveya:
