Hope there's someone. I went from Wow to Meh really quickly with this album.

"What Can I Do" = best 100 secs. of Rufus Wainwright's career.

Voted You Are My Sister, on a whim. Would just as happily have gone for Hope There's Someone, For Today I Am a Boy, What Can I Do?, Fistfull of Love, or Bad Ghul. Great record.

kind of curious that this album hasn't gotten a big reappraisal yet, especially in our "current climate". just listened to it for the first time in years and it's still stunning imho.
