  I COULD BE A GREAT STAR
Rufus Wainwright's Want OneThey used to say that Stevie Wonder was a musical genius. And, I'll go along with that one. Steveland Morris, aka Stevie Wonder is a musical genius. But, move over Stevie. There's a new kid in town.

I just love Rufus Wainwright. The man has a voice that is so strong and so true, it's fantastic. I know this because I first heard Rufus perform live when he opened up for Tori Amos a few years ago. From the moment he opened his mouth to sing, I was in awe. The dude almost didn't need a P.A. system. He's THAT good. He also writes his own music. And it is brilliant. Huge orchestral arrangements and symphonic accompaniments. Amazing.

I bought his 2nd album, "Poses," right after we saw him in concert. I am surprised I haven't worn it out yet. It is one of the best albums I have ever owned. EVER. Every single song on it is excellent. Beautiful music, poetic lyrics, and that amazing voice.

For two years, I waited patiently for a 3rd album from our Rufus. Last week, my patience was rewarded. The release of "Want One" was a highly anticipated event for me, and I was hoping that I would not be disappointed.

I was not.

Go out and buy this album. Now. Run, don't walk.

It's THAT good.

    BUFFY Quotes of the Day
    Anya: It's possible that he's in the land of perpetual Wednesday, or the crazy melty land, or you know, th-the world without shrimp.
    Tara: There's a world without shrimp? I'm allergic.

    ~from "Triangle"


    Anya: I don't see you winning too many beauty contests... unless the Miss "My Face Fell Off" Pageant gets going.

    ~from "Bargaining: Part Two"

    Anya: Here's a little something you should know about Vengeance Demons. We don't groove with the "sorry." We prefer the "Oh God, please stop hitting me with my own rib-bones!"

    ~from "Same Time, Same Place"


    Buffy: It's just like, nothing's simple. I'm always trying to work it out. Who to hate, or love...who to trust...It's like the more I know, the more confused I get.
    Giles: I believe thats called growing up.
    Buffy: I'd like to stop then, ok?

    ~from "Lie to Me"


    Riley: Got big stories to tell you, too. We get half a sec, we can compare and contrast.
    Buffy: Did you die?
    Riley: No.
    Buffy: I'm gonna win.

    ~from "As You Were"


    Xander: Giles lived for school. He's still bitter there were only 12 grades.
    Buffy: He probably sat in math class thinking, "There should be more math! This could be mathier!"

    ~from "The Dark Age"


    Giles: In the end, we are all who we are, no matter how much we may have appeared to change.

    ~from "Lessons"


    Dawn: How are you?
    Willow: A little confused. I mean, I'm sweaty, I'm trapped, no memory, hiding in a pipe from a vampire...and I think I'm kinda gay.

    ~from "Tabula Rasa"
