Rufus Wainwright
Rebel Prince
another all-time favorite of mine

Where is my master rebel prince, who will shut all of these windows
It's these windows all around me, it's these windows who are telling me
To rid my dirty mind of all of it's preciousness
Where is my master rebel prince?
Bet breaking everything trying to get to me in this two-bit hotel
Just to me before this windowsill does rid my dirty mind of all of its preciousness
Oh I can see him now, though it's so far away
Amongst the roving crowd, going the other way,
Confounded anger burning with love for me
Où est mon maître le prince rebelle
Qui va fermer toutes ces fenêtres
Ce sont ces fenêtres autour de moi
Ce sont ces fenêtres qui m'appellent
Qui m'appellent
Marigold, marigold, marigold
I'm leaving the Roosevelt Hotel
Marigold, marigold, marigold
I'm leaving the room we knew so well
Marigold, marigold, marigold
Marigold, marigold, marigold
Marigold, marigold, marigold
Marigold, marigold, marigold

Rebel Prince
This song, on the one hand I'm not too sure about it on the other I always seem to be humming it!!!
I think Tina was really taking hold when he wrote this, I may be wrong but he sounds off his tits. The Marigold bit sounds like he had written more but couldn't be bothered to sing it. So there you are, I sort of like it but don't, but do.

love the piano on this song. it's very good when he does it with just the guitar alone, but i like the soft little melody that the piano adds. it has a kind of jazzy feel to it which is awesome. also love how the lyrics flow together without really pausing between lines. and i always find myself singing along to it when he sings in french.
Where is my Rebel Prince
I bought RTS and the deluxe version with DVD and I was reminded how good this track and 'Cigarettes and Choc milk' is. I love the jazzy vibe with Rebel and the French bit in it - but as is often the case its like hearing two songs in one with Rufus especially when he gets to the Marigold bit. Having said that I spent the whole day last week singing it and it was on a loop - his songs are just so well crafted! what more can I say !
