On what album, which previewed Rufus Wainwright's forthcoming album, "Want Two" did the song "Gay Messiah" appear?
Waiting for a Want Waiting for a Want is the first EP by Canadian-American singer-songwriter Rufus Wainwright, released through DreamWorks Records electronically on June 29, 2004. At the time it was released, the collection previewed Wainwright's forthcoming album, "Want Two". Initially planned to be released shortly after "Want One", after plans of a double album fell through, the purchase of DreamWorks by Interscope delayed the release of "Want Two". The EP provided listeners with new material during this period. Admitting that he wanted to release "a couple of ditties" before the United States presidential election of 2004, Wainwright described the collection as "some of the more daunting tracks, the operatic, weird stuff, some heavy numbers that relate to my classical sensibilities".
