5.0 out of 5 stars The thinking man's pop tart 26 April 2012
Format:Audio CD
Yup he's back. And still singing all about him.
There's something so self obessedly wonderful about Rufus. All the songs revolve around him, or his family, or his friends. So really it's same old Rufus.
But damn the songs are very good. Echoes of everything here: His past albums, especially Release the Stars and Songs for Lulu (on Montauk) - but also touches of Queen, Beatles, a general 70's pop vibe, all topped off with swirling strings.

There's some great electric guitar here and there. A bit of country - most notable on the title track.

Great phrasing, catchy riffs and tunes. All these tracks would work wonderfully just with solo piano but it's the full band here which really makes things happen. All great throughout - there's almost everything here, including bagpipes! Really I'm not kidding.

Sister Martha (that's his sister not the religious kind) provides her gorgeous vocals on a couple of tracks, along with other family members.

This is very very good. Bravo Rufus - keep it up!

5.0 out of 5 stars Yay! 23 April 2012
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Rufus Wainwright delivers his most consistent and restrained lp since Poses but with stylistic echoes of all his work sprinkled throughout. Mark Ronson produces with a great ear for 70's soft-rock, 80's electro-pop and Wainwright's more complex usual sound. Seriously good pop music from an artist who deserves the wider audience this will hopefully bring.

I had never heard a Rufus Wainwright album, till this latest release. I've enjoyed this so much, i had to check out his back catalogue.
Purchased " Want One " ( one of the best albums i've ever heard ) " Out Of The Game " is very much in the same style.
This guy doesn't get the recognition he deserves, in terms of commercial success. Without doubt, one of the greatest artists of the 21st century.
Ordered the rest of his albums...can't wait for them to arrive !

2.0 out of 5 stars Present for a Rufus fan
I gave this to my Dad yesterday and he's not too impressed with it. He is a fan but finds it quiet boring, Only one listen tho so might grow on him.
