My Sad Inspiration

Rufus can always inspire me. I think I just needed depressing but hauntingly beautiful music.

I can't watch the video, it's not available here!

*sigh*

Aww, sad times. Well,if you're desperate for it, look up The Maker Makes by Rufus Wainwright on youtube later. He also does a gorgeous version of Hallelujah and Across the Universe (among other, equally amazing original songs.)

Found him!

Wow he is a bit controversial isn't he?
I like that!

well, as a homosexual Christian, I'd say that's an accurate description. ;)

(his father is the famous folksinger Loudon Wainwright.)

Oh, he sings a song, from the perspective of a female art student, being in love with her teacher.

ahem, fangirls, ahem.

I've never listened to anything by him, but he seems pretty interesting. I might look into his music a little more....

Oh, you absolutely should. He's his own genre! (some call it Pop Opera [popera, lol] baroque pop, etc. etc.) Pure brilliance. So far we've had pretty similar tastes, and if I love him, I'm sure you will.

Let me know what you think!
