the new rufus wainwright album

european fan

"release the stars" is simply incredible, i did a quick search of the forum and i'm surprised i haven't found anything on it.
every song on it is a classic, i've been lucky enough to see him at werchter (along with dozen of other acts including pearl jam of course) and it was a real treat.
such a shame this record isn't no 1. doesn't anyone else feel this way?
