    The last few years have been eventful for

    Rufus Wainwright. He was at his mother's side when she passed, saw the birth of his daughter, got engaged to his partner and began work with celebrated producer Mark Ronson on his forthcoming CD. All of these experiences inform his seventh recording,

    Out of the Game. Today's Top Tune is a world premiere of the track "

    Montauk."
