Customer Reviews:

a brilliant artist.......2006-11-01

the first time i heard rufus wainwright was on the " i am sam " movie. i bought the soundtrack just because i absolutely loved his version of "across the universe". i ordered his other cds to see if i liked the rest of his work.

i completely fell in love him and i've been playing all of his cds. nonstop. if you don't like it the first time, give it another shot. it's an acquired taste. i love his quirky lyrics, breathtaking voice, and beautiful arrangements. i really can't say enough how highly i think of his work and how much i've enjoyed listening to his music. if there's better music out there... i have yet to find it. he's one of the freshest and most brilliant people out there.

Great., listen to it!.......2006-05-31

this is very great and satisfying music. If you don't like it at the beginning then wait and try again later. you will like it one day. Listen to this disc from the beginning till the end. al songs are great. each song is special. but be patient i think.
i liked it very fast but thats me. listen it with a good stereo and some good headphones with some red wine. its a treat.

success!

An excellent musical work.......2005-09-13

Lyrical and tasteful. In the album Poses, Rufus Wainwright maximizes his talent for composing memorable pieces. He achieves a wonderful balance between the baroque and simplistic in songs such as "Cigarettes and Chocolate Milk," while going for unabashed self-reflection in the folksy "One Man Guy" (a cover of his father, Loudon Wainwright's, song). Wainwright also typifies the hopeless romantic, exceling in "Greek Song," "Tower of Learning," and "Grey Gardens" with the right touch of unrequitedness. A definite achievement.

CHOPS of Steel.......2005-07-05

Rufus has again influenced me and my music immensely with this album. His vocal range is second to none and writing style in a class by itself. I consider Rufus to be the David Lynch of Modern Pop/Rock music........he's truly an unpredictable original.

Brilliant.......2005-02-21

POSES is a brilliant album by one of the most talented singers and songwriters ever.

It is a must have for any serious collector of fine music.

And, Rufus is Canadian.
