Despite not having too much in the way of chart success ("The City" peaked at #195 on the UK Singles chart), "House" was chosen as BBC Radio 2's 'Record of the Week' during the week of May 21st, which is a pretty big deal. I've always loved the theatrical quality Patrick Wolf brings to everything he sings, and backed by a steady dance beat like this song is, the song really turns into something special. The single was released both digitally, and on a special edition 7" Vinyl. Go get it on UK iTunes HERE. You can also download "The City," along with the AMAZING Richard X remix, which I hadn't heard until now. BRILLIANT. UK fans can also pre-order the album featuring both "House" and "The City" HERE.
I look forward to hopefully seeing Wolf bring his flamboyant stage show to America again soon. Seeing him open for Amy Winehouse was such a treat!
