    Oh god, just a bit! I can't believe all the web column inches that got and it's actually a really, really by-the-numbers track when you take the attention grabbing video away. Let's not mention that any more! :-&

    Love the music, not keen on the video - too much like an ad for one of those unisex perfumes.

    She already admitted she was Lisa.  But, who really cares.

    I love the video because it does a good job of removing all of the inhibitions that people have about sex.

    Hello guys, 

    I'm new here and from France :)
    Can somebody write down the lyrics of "Drew" please?
    I have to admit that I don't get everything...

    I looove the video. It's just amazing how Alison and Will still manage to create a entire new atmosphere for each album :x

    Okay, this is probably a "Duh!" moment for me but, HJ, you can download from Youtube??!?!  Everything??  I don't see a button anywhere.

    I'm rationing myself (always better not to hear singles too much before you hear the album so you don't unbalance the flow of it) but the more I do play it then the more I hear the differences in it's musical genetics from its obvious Goldfrapp musical parents.

    The use of strings & orchestration in general is actually quite different than they've done before and the song structure (especially the latter half) is quite unusual for them on one of their own albums. It definitely moves from Goldfrapp parts to Goldfrapp Soundtrack parts and I think that gives it a good progression over it's length from the push that the changes bring it.

    ( ...) When Alison walks into the room at the end of the video and see's herself standing at the window with the people in bed then begins to shed her clothes that's a sign that either she's died or she's entered her imaginary world again (...)



    I think it's the latter, because immediately after that they cut to Alison/character riding the bike with that big, contented smile on her face, looking like she is thinking about something quite pleasant.

    Then again just my two cents...

    i had a quick go too, but there were several lines i didn't get anything for.
    i hear "pull up the blinds" rather than 'follow the plants'

    and "you me and the moon we burned and crashed" rather than 'we're bounding into grass'

    but you had a better stab at it than me...
