I need to listen to more Rufus, but you need Agnus Dei on there.

It gives me shivers every single time.

^^ You're right That song is amazing... I don't know many Rufus's songs though...

Agnus Dei, Foolish Love, Poses, Vicious World were all the hardest to cut. With the next CD coming, I think it'll be possible to throw in a few more album tracks and compilation contributions and expand to two discs. As it stand, I think 2 discs would be pushing it, though all four albums are especially great in their own right, especially Poses and Want Two.

Wow, I apparently did this exact thread with a slightly different tracklisting and some cover art about a year ago.

Oh, and other news - anybody heard "Going to a Town" yet? It's gorgeous, wisftully melodic, and socially concious without being preachy. I likes it.
