Rufus is a true genius, and a gifted vocalist and skilled musician. He is making the most beautiful and challenging pop music today. I was at this performance and you can see my grinning ear-to-ear about a minute in when it cuts TO ME!!!!! What can I say the camera loves me and Rufie!
I will be honest-I do not know this guys work at all..but I saw this at a friends house on TV and thought it was absolute class...Amazing voice,,haunting tune and piano piece,and personally i like the lyrics (though i know some do not from viewing comments). I read a comment that Rufus actually hated the song..but did he did not do it to prove his talent, attract new fans and also build profile?well it worked with m..e cos i will deffo check out more of his work because of this song
I love it there's something so coldplay about the melody absolutely love the "dont bore us get to the chorus" I think its the line that makes it most intriguing and catchy EPIC!!!!
The made this song in a day! I was really fascinated when they showed the songwriting process in the BBC2 documentary. I hope they make more songs together!
Cant find this version on the album or anywhere, I think Rufus hated this from scratch and having a piano cover as an extra track proves it, any other pop star would have that as the main single with the version you can hear after the 1st chorus on this video, does anyone have that version without this comments on top, thank you amazing song, lyrics dont really care if the melody is quite enough, which it is :)
I hope the artist name goes down as 'Rufus Wainwright and Guy Chambers', or in the other order. We got to see both creative and performance input, and Chambers doesn't deserve a lesser credit. He's used to it, though.
In both songs I saw guy chambers wrote, his chorus was nothing compared to the verse. rufus's whiney voice just screeches badly chosen lyrics across it. Dross music that is forgotten just as quickly as it was written.
I love everything Rufus has ever written but I don't think this works at all, especially the chorus ironically. I think he's uncomfortable signing it too.

Release it, release it, release it!!!
Can't stop singing this. Love it. BBC2 teased us terribly by not playing the full song.......
Rufus Wainwright is one of the truely exceptional artists of our time.
this song makes me want to write more music..
been in a depression for a while now, and hearing this song for the first time has re inspired me.
brilliant song, but totally agree with Guy, that opening chorus line... ouch.

@purpleforest13 As someone who works in music production, you're very lucky to have such a cool music teacher.
The Plugger had a point, I think. They must be holding the studio release of this song back for the Olympics.
any chance of the full episodes? please?
Check iTunes. You can hear a preview on it from his new album "Out Of The Game".
according to the official tracklist, it won't be on the album :( but maybe there will be some bonus tracks...
I wonder if we'll ever hear the full studio version...
genius + genius = great
Rufus
love it. does anyone know where i can get hold of tawiah singing ghost from episode 2..thanks.
♥♥♥!!!
@NoodlesAnimations so true!
such an amazing song, show can we get a studio recording of it?
I think Coldplay would also do this amazingly!
@manus21
It will be on the new album right?
@NoodlesAnimations Nah, they are not stupid - it does have that feeling of the end of a film about it. I know the lyrics counter this...

Will they release it??

don't bore us, get to the chorus? ...not a great line...
Anyone think he looks a bit like The Sassy Gay Friend? :3
