    I still can't believe there are people who don't have Hunt first :D

    {looks sternly at certain list orders in the thread}
    A million fires before your harvest comes. To burn out.
    Wear the mask of a heathen. For the moon's lonely eyes.

    Best to worst:

    None of the tracks
    All of the tracks.

    The entire album is dreadful.

    I agree that the entire album is amazing.  I was amazed that Goldfrapp perpetrated it.

    1. Dreaming [9/10]
    2. Rocket [9/10]
    3. Hunt [8/10]
    4. Voicething [7/10]
    5. I Wanna Life [7/10]
    6. Head First [5/10]
    7. Alive [4/10]
    8. Believer [3/10]
    9. Shiny and Warm [2/10]

    While I liked the idea of Goldfrapp doing the 80s, Head First came across more as an 80s tribute album.  I would love to see them make a proper synth album, but with a good melodic and atmosphereic balance.  Think about OMDs Architecture & Morality or Dazzle Ships.  After Head First, I can't imagine them returning to a pure synth album, which is sad for me. 




    I hope that you die in a decent pair of shoes
    You got a lot more walking to do where you're going to.

    I have a great affection for the song, not least as I love Doctor Who so much ;)



    It's a re-creation
    Again I live another life

    Haha, that's a relief :)

    I love how thick the synth lines are on this track... and they lyrics sung with Alison's mixture of low and high vocals!
