HOLY.

Rufus Wainwright, you know, of OMG pretty Hallelujahness.

His father is Louden Wainwright III, of I Wish I Was A Lesbian fame.

Talent runs WILD in that family.

Wikipedia rules. Including the above, I've learned: About Jeff Buckley, who I only know as the dude with the pretty voice who does Ulalume on the Poe CD merrick42 gave me; Hallelujah is a Leonard Cohen song that was covered by both Rufus Wainwright and Jeff Buckley; the version on the Shrek soundtrack is Wainwright's, but the movie used somebody else's version; I need me some Rufus Wainwright CDs. And some of his dad's, if I can get 'em.

I LOVE Wikipedia. After watching Peacemaker Kurogane I went to look up some stuff on Hijikata, and they had an amazing amount of stuff on not only him, but on the other members of the Shisengumi,the history of the Shinsengumi itself, several members of the Choshuu faction, the Ikedaya, and lots and lots of other stuff, just linked from that one article. Wikipedia is amazing.

It really is. I have to go check this stuff out now :) It's written by random people off the internet, I think, so you can either get people who are really into the subject and know a lot, or the possibility of utter bull ^^;; But I've never seen anything that I've found to be wrong.
