“I don’t like gay ghettos or straight ghettos. I like it when an artist isn’t about their sexuality, but their music first,” he says. “I’m the only person who knows me, so I’m never going to fit in any of the boxes in the same way that I’m never going to say I make a particular type of music – I’m not a pop musician, I’m not a folk or a rock musician, I’m Patrick.”

In Attitude, he also talks about suing his high school about their their views on gay people. “They had said that they couldn’t help me with my bullying because I was of an ‘effeminate disposition,’” he said. “So I took them to the European Court of Justice when I was 15, won, and bought a piano with the money I was awarded.”

(and yes, I’m back. I recently had to switch domiciles, and Mathilde was a bit winded from all the aquarium-wheeling that entailed. Not to mention all those Patrick Wolf CDs in little wheeled backpacks she had to wrangle!)

Honestly, not in love with the song.

As for his sexuality, I couldn’t care less. It really annoys me that musicians and actors play this game (whether by choice or contract). I think record companies are completely out of touch if they think that people aren’t going to buy records if they know if someone is gay. No, people won’t by records if the music sucks. Perhaps I am being naive.

With that said, if it is his choice to make that statement, then all the power to him. He doesn’t have to explain anything to anyone.

As a final note, I’m pretty sure the magic position can be found in the Karma Sutra, but I think it may require some stretching.
