Song you should hear 10/31/18 - "Sword Of Damocles" from Rufus Wainwight

"Sword Of Damocles" is the new one-off single from singer/songwriter Rufus Wainwright. Playing off a parable told by ancient Roman writer Cicero, the song fleshes out the story of the perils of actually getting the things you desire. A pointed hit at the current corrupt Trump administration, this song is meant to inspire the younger folks (and some older folks) to not just sit on their asses next Tuesday. Darren Criss co-stars in the music video, and his accoutrements are on point...

Rufus' last album to reach to charts in America was Out Of The Game, which peaked at #35 in 2012.
