I think you're looking into pavement etiquette a bit too much, Whickwithy. I will admit I do too, but it seems to be a UK spread thing that people don't know where to walk on pavements/stairs. Makes it easier when people adhere to the ru…

Interesting perspectives, Christian. I typically play TOU in tandem with 7T, perhaps because I first listened to it walking around in the sunshine during the summer, I find it nice and airy. Felt Mountain is definitely a winter album!

the homage thread? i can't find one.....
At 46 one should still look young, fresh and good in shorts. Don't let that put you off me completely, though ;)

Keeping in mind that photo of Alison is around 7 years old now Kat :P

FWIW, this is the photo i'm getting to replace it (except in monochrome): https://loft965.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/newgoldfrapp.jpg

Well, I thought i'd be smart and get two posters printed, each with one of my idols on. Unfortunately, Alison got the short end of my printing naivety and I have a rather pixelated poster, my fault for thinking it'd be fine. Lesson learn…

Silver Eye (main album thread)
Anyone else absolutely loving Anymore now? I can see why it was the first single, it has something about it that has more substance than Systemagic. Real grinder of a song IMO.

Systemagic (Second Single)
I'd have thought Lisa would've been making a return for the videos actually, don't know if there's a particular reason i'm missing or if Alison maybe didn't want to bother her...

No, we mean pee pee. Lest we forget I am a millennial child who knows no better

I Remember is my fav too UT, although this particular mix is my fav;

Taking a short Kylie break from Silver Eye- (an oldie, but goody) Bloody love that song! Kylie's material from that era is divine! That and the Aphrodite era as well. My current obsession is one that might not be to many tastes (particular…

Would be interesting to see what Alison was like back then, visions etc

Some more selections here that Alison put on Pintrest, just incase no one else has seen them either which i'm sure most of you have; https://uk.pinterest.com/goldfrapp/pre-goldfrapp-era/

Certainly very different to how she even looked in the 90's! Suppose she was only 16 there. She reminds me of Alicia Keys;

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 …

Sorry, I thought Slip intended this thread as a homage to vinyl, not as a place to try to rubbish it. Meow. My points were based around the topic of audiophilia, which was also mentioned in the OP. I'm not outwardly trying to put down vinyl…

Introduce Goldfrapp to your friends/family in only 20 Songs. What would you pick and why?
Just give them a copy of the Black Cherry album. If they don't get it, we don't want 'em ! As much as i'd love to agree, I don't think that does the duo justice. Yes, BC is an impeccable album (much like the rest), but on…

Interesting your protestations about FLAC and 5.1 Gaelen. I remember similar views on Quadraphonic being the future. The most important thing to remember is that the mix that goes onto vinyl is not the same as would be used to produce CD's. A l…

That's pretty cool, would have made a good single actually, from an eccentric sense.

Beast That Never Was
The "keep something back" part actually reminded me of Jo's "run, you better run...", but perhaps that's too easy.

Lovely topic, and very nice collection too! From an audiophile point of view, I think some people get a bit confused when it comes to vinyl. I personally wouldn't recommend anyone to listen to albums like Silver Eye, Supernature &a Head …

Possibly more pagan themed, UT?

I've not seen the word 'hyperbole' as much in my life as I have the past week between here and Popjustice :P I would have to side with those who think you should get it early/on time, it's a dedication and you're someone who…

Silver Eye reviews
That's it the 31st folks! Now have my pre-order from iTunes firmly in my library :-) So, here's my two pence; The whole album is immaculately produced, and even purely focussing on instrumental tracks this is a extolment to the duo. I�…
