| God, this song is just so amazing on so many levels. I love the references to Medusa and the rebel angels in this modern-age song. It's just so beautiful. | |

| Rufus' latest album is absolutely fantastic. This song is just one example of how wonderful it is. I think this song ties up and exhibits all the aspects of heartache that can be associated with love. Uncertainty being hurt, and the one hurting your loved one, betrayal, regret, frustration. .. How is Rufus able to capture all of this in one six and a half minute song? | |

| From his website: "“In Xanadu did Kublai Khan a stately pleasure dome decree … ” I’m a little nervous talking about this one. It was written a couple of years ago on a horrible, frightening drug crash. The lyrics came to me fast and furious. I was shattered, and I had to resort to mythological metaphors in order to express what I was feeling. It was a very Rimbaud moment for me. It was about facing addiction, or facing this person I’d become. It was me fighting for my life, because it had become a battle at that point. The voices in the chorus are like the Furies; that song is my “Orpheus Ascending.”" | |

| 'crucify this unholy notion of the mythic powers of love' Another powerful Wainwright song, and the mesh of mythology and contemporary is shattering. Stunning. | |

| MEANING: playng live, he introdiced this song as "this was written after a three day crystal meth binge" This is one of my most most most favourite songs. I relate to the lyrics, not to the crystal meth binge. | |
