The One You Love

I'm back.  I'm thrilled to share the song stuck in my head today, "The One You Love"  by Rufus Wainwright

Funny, I blogged about his sister Martha just last post.  She is one of the back-up singers in this song.  Now if we can get his father, Loudon Wainwright and his mother, Kate McGarrigle, then we'll have the whole family covered.  Let's see if my subconscious allows it. 

Anyway, I love this song.  One thing that made me fall in love with my wife is that I could play her a song by Rufus Wainwright and she "got it," meaning she understood why the music is so cool and interesting.  Rufus is a gifted musician, ranging from folk, to rock, to classical.  This song is one of my favorites of his...

I'M AFRAID I HAVE A DISCLAIMER ON THIS SONG, there is an F-word!  It happens right about 1:44 in the song.  If you have extra sensitive ears, I would mute it from about 1:40-1:50 to be safe.  I want this blog to be fun for everyone to read, so I hope this doesn't offend anyone. 



For those of you offended by this, HOPEFULLY A CONTEST WILL MAKE UP FOR IT! 

I noticed my numbers dwindling on my blog visits, but boy howdy when I run a contest the numbers go up!  I guess nobody cares about my songs, they just like the free stuff. 

And I've upped the ante y'all- you thought the prizes last time were awesome, these will blow you away!

    1. Running Away by Hoobastank. Yup. And yes, I had to look up who it was.
    2. You've got to be kidding me. I thought I'd give it an honest shot, but it turns out I just can't even begin to understand Rufus. Is he saying anything? I hope you can excuse me because of my general inability to hear lyrics, but I will understand if this disqualifies me. At least I didn't look it up.
