'White Soft Rope' lyrics.....
It seems a lot of written lyrics found on-line these days are done by software, not humans. Sub titles on TV certainly are, some of the complete gobbledegook they come out with.I suspect this is the origin of 'And every-time I think of you, I …

I know what he means about handling the vinyl, the smell and the ritual of placing it on the platter and dropping the needle. it's almost a religious ceremony !CD's - Push button, tray slides out, flop CD in, tray closes, music comes out.

Some beautiful vocal runs from Alison in that latter one, and Hazel really could do with a shave !

Here's a couple of examples from Supernature, another synth heavy album, Just Let It Take You and You Never Know. These songs are lifted by the addition of strings at points in the song, even if they are synth generated in YNK. When Davidee w…

I've seen the band on every tour except Felt Mountain, as it was BGF, and this is the first tour with no violinist on stage. Even Supernature tour had a violinist; Davidee, despite its heavy synth basis. Strings are one of Goldfrapp's USP…

Tigerman, Beast That Never Was Anymore, swims in the Ocean of Systemagic chasing Faux Suede Drifter with Moon in Your Mouth and Zodiac Black eyes screaming that Everything is Never Enough to Become the One. Take two of these tablets before going …

Yup, Black Cherry on Later was the start of my downfall as well ! But what a drop!

Anyone else finding that after 7 or 8 listens they still can't fully get a read on Silver Eye? Yes, agree with you Low. I like it. I want to like it more but I feel something is missing to put it up amongst my favourites. I think my favourite …

Amen to that last line Pete. Apparantly, vinyl has allowed many artists to start getting some cash in from sales rather than the pittance derived from streaming services. I here that streaming is having a far greater effect in depressing CD sales th…

Jo Whiley Live Session 4th April
Looking like that, Alison should get Will to come out on stage during a song and do a Ron Mael style dance.

Watch out NovaLasing, this is a strictly no bad-mouthing vinyl thread! Run before you get the backhand of pure sass! Don't know but probably best avoided. Why can't we discuss things on a website specialised for discussions? It's …

I'm sure it was UT who saw them on JH all those years ago that got us into this caper! It was my boy, it was. 2003. Black Cherry, then Felt Mountain, then Birmingham NEC to see them supporting Duran Duran then a trip to Barcelona and Sala Razam…

Introduce Goldfrapp to your friends/family in only 20 Songs. What would you pick and why?
Well, some time ago I did post that, in my humble opinion, Goldfrapp's music is always best when it is darker and embraces a slightly more sinister feel. One place this is particularly evident is on their cover of Winter Wonderland where they s…

LOVE the red outfit, it's a great look. And I had to chuckle at that primate who shouts out after MIYM.."Goldfraaappp!" :(|) Or as we refer to them 'Muppet'

Nobody said they hated 7th TreeJust Happiness and possibly Caravan Girl. A bit too up beat and jolly for Goldfrapp. Not dark enough!Some People is a fantastic song though, as is Little Bird.

Cannot clip out the interview bit itself, so here is a link to the whole breakfast show on 6 Music. I went out on the 08.40 Music news, so scroll to 1:43:38 in for the start of the interview, which runs until 1:47.55.29 days to listen to this only …

I wanna be @stevil's Tigerman! Sorry to be picky, but these look like Tiger girls! Perhaps Alison should adopt them as replacements for the Wolf Ladies. Ah, Wolf ladies. Those were the days !

Well, be confused no more Low. Old forum user Satori hated Happiness with a vengeance. He would say, every time it was played anywhere, the Devil would kill another kitten. It's just stuck in my mind now every time someone mentions the track. …

Ed the Ginger Jam Rag can go and fuck himself. So can JK (obviously run short of cash) as far as I'm concerned. As for Take That, how long can you squeeze that rock and get blood out? Rag n Bone Man....OK.

My work computer needs to get out more. It has a poor grasp on what is pornography.

I've now seen at least 3 different types of signature from Alison on these booklets Kat. It looks like a sharpie marker ( Will was using one at recent gigs to sign stuff) which would leave no pen indentation.I think she starts off full of vim …

Don't know but probably best avoided. Was there not some comment a few weeks ago about her views on vinyl?
