Lee
Lee and Alvar are my two favourite tracks from ToU, without a doubt. The era is actually very bittersweet on retrospect, i'm only starting to appreciate it more now that we have a electronic album coming out.

Can she not sing them anymore UT? I was under the impression our songstress was unbeaten by any of her older material, even 17 years on :(

Wasted potential IMO.

Sorry for derailing the thread, but considering this place isn't exactly a hive of activity i'm sure it doesn't hurt when we actually manage to spark a discussion between a few people. Don't get jealous just because you weren�…

She's marmite for sure, but credit where credit is due, she's a fantastic pop songstress who spans four decades, even if some of that spannage includes some mediocre music.

I too am a homosexy, and once did not like Madonna (I was always more of a Kylie person). But these days i've grown to like some of her stuff. How can you not like American Life or Confessions? :P

That's a clever idea Cookiee, never thought of using aliases for deliveries :P

You're welcome Ryan :) Someone else on here actually introduced me to something recently because it sounded a bit like Alison, which is a little hidden gem called BEA1991. The song that sounds like Alison is called 'Hinterland'.

On the topic of that album/producer, Alison singing something down the lines of this would go down a treat. @Slippage - I only like Turn Up the Radio off MDNA (however i've not listened to much of the album). I like a majority of Rebel Heart,…

@Gaelen, I'm a bit confused by your critique of Become The One... I thought the only John producer on the new album is John Congleton, and not John Grant? I might not have projected what I meant clearly. I never meant John Grant was the prod…

Off-topic, but out of interest, what Madonna songs are in question here? :P

My only issue with Become The One is it sounds so similar to Pale Green Ghosts that it's all it makes me think of when I listened to the clip, almost as if the producer is a bit of a one trick pony when it comes to musical talent. As much as t…

I don't know if it was the intended effect or not, but I found that absolutely hilarious!

To be fair, I don't think they give away everything. They are only snippets, and there's a few of them that you can tell are just getting somewhere before cutting off, so there's still much to experience come March 31st. Also, if the…

For those curious to what 'Tigerman' sounds a bit like without hearing it, here's a 14 Y/O track from Tomb Raider Angel of Darkness to hint to you :P

I'm liking the different mix, could possibly translate into an extended one?

Good, as much as I know what they sound like it's good that I won't hear them again until the album is out. Excited for the new music video :D

Systemagic has the lyrics "silver eye" in it. Very Head First goes BC/SN. Become The One is just this; which makes sense since it's the same producer. LOVE 'Faux Suede Drifter', it has Seventh Tree 'incomprehensible&#…

Yes, I had that issue as well for about a week. Was nearly about to clear my cookies as I had zero access and thought it was me that caused the issue as it went on for so damn long. Turns out they were just slow af at changing stuff, whatever it w…

I second that Jo_ey, bit dickish after the most commercial time of year also when you need that payday :P

I think it was a given that Major Lazor would win that one, all the druggies and sheep love a good ML song.

I just seen that Silver Eye is on the hot pre-orders list on iTunes both with the logo and album title next to the cover.

I like 'In Search Of' which I suspect is one of the more popular choices, but apart from that i've not heard any of his other stuff. What would you recommend?

Going by the titles which track intrigues you most?
"Systemagic" makes me think of this every time I read it:

I was looking at that too tattmaylor, the shortest two are in fact the first two songs, one of which is Anymore. The longest at 5:06 is 'Everything Is Not Enough'. The longest Goldfrapp song in their discography is Alvar at 5:36, while th…
