Rufus Wainwright "Shakespeare Sonnet 20" and "Zebulon " Niagara on The Lake August 1 2009

The sublimely talented Rufus Wainwright performs "Shakespeare Sonnet 20 (A Woman's Face)" and "Zebulon" outdoors at a very small and gorgeous vineyard ampitheatere under the moonlight in Niagara on The Lake -. I saw Grace Jones 2 nights before in NY - and then this - with NIagara Falls inbetween - Diva's DOWN!!

And for a woman wert thou first created,

Till nature as she wrought thee fell a-doting,

And by addition me of thee defeated

By adding one thing to my purpose nothing.

But since she pricked thee out for women's pleasure,

Mine be thy love and thy love's use their treasure.

Only Rufus Wainwright could get away with slightly "Camping Up" Shakespeare - A joy to behold - Great Post.

Rufus' voice sounds great here. Great quality sound and video; thank you. I laughed so hard at the comments... 'I didn't write it.'
