Hows the new album coming along ?
I seem to remember that shortly before the release of TOU, some new titles appeared in the music copyright listings. But I have no idea how to check that out.

^And that is the spirit I most love in Goldfrapp. Hints and subtleties yet with power and depth. Thanks, PG! x.

^see, now this is why I find Jennifer Paterson so much more attractive than (dare I say it? I do! I do!) Nigella - who is fake and brittle and...well, married the odious Charles Saatchi

Angie Pollock
Thanks, Turqs. And welcome to the GMB! I keep hoping that Angie will do a solo album - maybe just accompanying herself on the piano?

I like the suggestion that someone hide a rabid cat into his desk in the Oval Office, and label the drawer "Pussy". When he feels the need to grab some...karma, innit.

How do you feel today?
I am not listening to the news at all. I am playing Allegri's Miserere and reminding myself that all this too must pass.

The Untied States of America (An Open Forum)
You're right, PG. Despite Obama being a decent, civilised man, he was still controlled by the big interest groups in the arms trade, agribusiness, predator capitalists et al. He didn't dare challenge them in a big way (Obamacare was the be…

Yes, good for you and your Union spanner, Kat. My conclusion is similar to yours - there's no chance that Good will prevail, but while we are here, we have to fight, be true to ourselves and kind to each other.

I can't even watch anything on the telly that features people talking with an American accent. Like after the Brexit vote, the worst thing is how it shakes your view of the world. Generally, I walk around thinking most people are pretty decent…

Trump will evoke nuclear Armageddon! With whom? With whomever offends his sense of amour propre that morning. A pathological narcissist if ever I saw one.
