Rufus you have to be one of the very very few celebrities who speaks and acts like a normal person with no ego. You are so talented at writing. Love your songs.
OMG! At the end when he was leaving and crossed the door he didn't know wich way to go.. So funny! Everytime I watch this guy can't help but LOL- I absolutelly love him!
My brother could pass for his twin. Has the same facial features, hair style and body type. With the new beard he's sporting these day, he's looking alot like his father. Back in the early 90s when I was in my late teens, I sneaked into a NYC club to catch his father's act. Loudon was wearing a beard that night and except for a receding hairline and a few gray hairs, he looked and sounded very much like Rufus. He was probably in his mid 40s, just a few yrs older than Rufus is right now
I love Rufus and that is probably why the interviewer's remarks about missing Rufus' show because of the Antique Roadshow, seemed a little impolite and would it would have been better left unsaid. If he did it for laughs, then it missed the mark.
He's got the Judy mannerisms, too. (in the tribute clip) I remember watching her tv show as a kid. She was wonderful.
And he is too! Thanks for posting this. My son turned me on to Rufus--he's got a huge crush on him. And I can see why! What a cutie he is! And I love his music.
Ah crap. First time I hear him talk (not sing, dah) and wow.. I know he's gay and all, but I would never have assumed that he spoke in that awkward gay voice..
Dear Jesus, if you don't like the way he talks, that's your problem, not his. And if you decide not to be his fan/friend because of the way he talks, then he's better off for not having such an idiotic person in his company.
Wow, you are probably the most retarded person in the whole fucking world. Where the FUCK in my comment did I say that I had a problem with the way he spoke, and where the FUCK did I say I was going to stop appreciating his music just because he has a different tone when he speaks? Huh? Go back to your fucking cave you son of a bitch. Never, fucking NEVER call someone names for no apparent reason you cunt. Fuck.
I'm certainly not as unintelligent as someone who thinks saying "fuck," "bitch," and "retarded" makes an argument for me. You said "crap," "wow," "I know he's gay and all, but" and "awkward gay voice." All of these have negative implications towards your disappointment in his voice.
It's highly hypocritical of you to tell me to stop calling people names, when all I said was "idiotic" and you're saying "fuck," "bitch," and "cunt."
Such a great man, Rufus isn't trying to be anyone but himself and that's what we all love about him. And this is a really good interview too, Jonathan Ross seems so polite and accepting. Little side note, don't you hate it how on every Rufus video there's always a comment "SO GAY"? I mean, nobody goes around posting on other artist's videos, "THIS IS SO HETEROSEXUAL!"
This must be the best Rufus interview I've ever seen! Whenever Rufus is comfortable with the interviewer he's always a lot more articulate and funny and a lot less precocious (dare I say? hehe).
Agreed about his laugh not being annoying anymore. Ehehehehehe. ...not that it ever was ;)
i always loved rufus' laugh! it's so endearing! yea i seriously hope jonathan ross is joking when he said he missed the concert. cuz honestly... i would have to find him and throttle him :P
and Rufus is a tit man is a pretty funny song! you can hear loudon's timbre is similar to rufus', or rather reverse that. lol
The Russell Howard and Jon Richardson Radio Show bought me here.
