DELUXE BOX - Updates & information
That seems the case, yes. They're too busy finishing up with the album release and whatnot, it's perfectly understandable. I don't mind waiting!

Garbage is one talented group. Their latest, "Not Your Kind Of People" was truly masterful in my opinion. Really took me back to the days of late 90's grunge/rock/electronica. (Hope that's what they were aiming for!) Anyone ever …

Tales Of Us - 6th album - 09/09/2013
I'm going to wait for my boxed set as well, simply out of respect for the band and knowing that people like this who leak/sell their work well before impact or release date disgust them and insult the hard work they've put into Tales Of Us…

Suggestions For Other Music.
Definitely Bjork, especially her albums Vespertine and Homogenic (my fav). Had the incredible honour of meeting Bjork this summer, and she really is as warm, compassionate and beautiful as her music (had to be frisked to get backstage but it was wor…

Jimmy Fallon TV show - 26/27 Sep 2013
Why they haven't come on Ellen is completely beyond me. After Florence and the Machine went on there, they EXPLODED in popularity.

Goldfrapp Tattoos
I really love the look of the "Goldfrapp" logo (anything later than Supernature era but Tales Of Us seems to have alot more crispness to it). Planning on one day having it tattooed onto either my right arm or right leg. Also was thinking o…

What are you listening to now?
Lady Gaga. Applause. OUT TODAY. It's actually quite an amazing song, they took alot of time working on this and crafting the style, the rich rich basslines and raw vocals (which are quite good to be honest, Gaga can actually sing well). It'…

Out in Canada too! Bought it just out of respect to the band for venturing into experiments such as this. Looks interesting!

I'm pretty sure that's Alison. The person has the same slender build, and similar body language. Imagine if this WAS about an app? Perhaps something archiving every Goldfrapp video? Hey maybe THAT's why all their videos have been pul…

Latest Purchase....
I personally prefer the full version, with it's cinematic builds and flourishes of string action. I suppose it was more for the matter of collecting it that I clicked the buy button on Ebay. Can't be that many of them?

Is there really a radio edit of Drew?
I've only ever heard the full version of Drew played, and that was here on an Ottawa Radio station that it was played (which freaked me out, Goldfrapp is NEVER played on the radio, not even Strict Machine or Ooh La La). Perhaps they just made a…

Check Twitter for Alison updates
Alison might have been scanning the forums, as I've been prominent about the fight to bring the almighty Frapp to Canada. And she seems to have taken notice! I wish we were coming to Canada too! I really do, we haven't been there in so lo…

Goldfrapp Collections (you know you have them ;) )
I shed a tear for the Seventh Tree Vinyl alone. My god that's a rarity of it's own, unless you want to pay over 100 on Ebay. And the Felt Mountain Vinyls... god. I know what it's like trying to find these. Took me years to track down …

Darn does everyone have a drew promo but me? It's like the next swimming badge up! I don't have one. I'm hoping that it has the Radio Edit on it. I will be miffed if it is the lovely long version. #-o It is the radio edit. Quite…

Goldfrapp Live in NYC September 10th, 2013.
"@goldfrapp: The Beacon Theatre NYC on the 10th of September is our only gig in the States. We hope we'll be coming back there sometime in 2014 x" I wish they'd come to North America more often. It's really a shame and not …

Any ideas as to what will be on the bonus CD? I'm holding out for now as it is very expensive. Slap on the airmail fee to the US and that bumps it up even more. I'm pretty certain there will be at least one B-side if not more. Perhaps Ask…

Wow! Was kidding, what a surprise! Thanks for the info. Too rich for my blood at the moment, perhaps Christmastime.....

Tales Of Us - 6th album - 09/09/2013
Radio edit CD of Drew just plopped through the mail slot! Sounds divine compared to the video version. Close to the first chorus there are little sections tweaked around with (if anyone remembers the differences between the video and cd version of Y…

What's your Favourite Live Track ?
The Ride A White Horse from T in the Park 2010, as well as You Never Know. My god, she just goes all-out on that one normally!

Songs that would be fitting for Goldfrapp to cover/re-interpret?
Being a baker employed here would give me a real thrill for Alison to make this jingle fresh again. Always Fresh. Sorry, had to. Also sticking with the ad theme too!

BLACK CHERRY BOOK ON EBAY - SIGNED
Sadly, no. Some lucky bugger posted an offer of $100 more and they got it. Allllmost though! I swear if they didn't post the offer it would have been likely coming to the magical land of Tim Hortons and maple leafs, and straight into my arms, a…

Thanks :P my boyfriend will gut me like a fish if he finds out, but he doesn't understand the true value of this artifact of Goldfrapp history. Besides, the bills are paid and food's on the table. Could always use the "i won it in a c…

BLACK CHERRY BOOK ON EBAY - SIGNED
I caved.... sent an offer. Half of what they're asking but crossing my fingers desperately. Wonder if they'll do something special for deluxe box purchasers of TOU in a similar vein?

worth it, what are the chances of EVER seeing one again?!? I better find something rare, fast.... (eyes framed Head First Cassette/Vinyl/CD/Rocket Print collage hanging on wall, sealed Human vinyl and sealed gatefold limited Supernature Vinyl)

Fine, if you all want me outta here, I'm out.
It wouldn't be the same without you, Alan. I had a great time on the covers thread comparing music and us both linking our appreciation for the incredible Lana Del Rey. ^:)^ You are a true fan, just look at the masterpiece that was the Goldfra…

@Slippage, if you live in Canada then you're far from unlucky. We need to keep our tea towels as compensation for not having breathtaking views, amazing food and a great lifestyle. It sometimes sucks to live in the UK. I'll trade with …
