''Want Two'' is the fourth album by American-Canadian singer-songwriter Rufus Wainwright. The album was released on November 16, 2004. Four of the tracks on this album were released in the summer of 2004 as the EP ''Waiting for a Want'' on the iTunes music store. ''Want Two'' is, according to Wainwright, the darker sibling of 2003's ''Want One'' - its subject matter concerned with "the world we live in" (RW Geffen Bio) after ''Want Ones focus on the intensely personal. The artist's song selections here show his range to be broad, veering from romantic ballad ("Peach Trees") to tragic ballad ("This Love Affair"), sophisticated pop ("The One You Love") to third person/first person narrative lament ("The Art Teacher"), personal tongue in cheek manifesto ("Gay Messiah"), to a classical pop hybrid written about Jeff Buckley ("Memphis Skyline") and songs beyond category. "Agnus Dei" is used in the trailer for the 2007 film ''Trade''. Mother Kate McGarrigle and aunt Anna (McGarrigle) both perform and sing on "Hometown Waltz". Antony Hegarty of 2005 Mercury Prize winners Antony and the Johnsons sings lead vocal alongside Wainwright on "Old Whore's Diet". The initial UK version of the record contains bonus live tracks, "フランス語:Coeur de Parisienne - Reprise d'Arletty" and "フランス語:Quand vous mourrez de nos amours" (written by French Canadian songwriter Gilles Vigneault). ==Track listing== # "Agnus Dei" – 5:45 # "The One You Love" – 3:44 # "Peach Trees" – 5:59 # "Little Sister" – 3:22 # "The Art Teacher" – 3:51 # "Hometown Waltz" – 2:33 # "This Love Affair" – 3:13 # "Gay Messiah" – 3:14 # "Memphis Skyline" – 4:51 # "Waiting for a Dream" – 4:14 # "Crumb by Crumb" – 4:13 # "Old Whore's Diet" – 9:09 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Want Two」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
