I think NZ has quite a varied landscape, depends which island you're on. But yeah it was a bit of an accent car crash at times

Tales of Us - the film
so i'm now starting to wonder a bit about what the 'film' is gonna be like. will it be a series of short vignettes or more of a whole thing with some sort of narrative? i wonder how Drew fits in with the others?

i don't get how some folk are thinking its too sexy with the nudes in it? maybe i have more a relaxed view on the nude form... heh. EDIT - i do think there would have been more shock if alison had flashed her boobies at the end of the video. …

The Twitter Feeds Of Goldfrapp
I`m not a massive pre-gig drinker , don`t like the feeling of "I need a wee" mid gig . same here, it ruins the gig either cause you have to go and have one or cause you can't concentrate on anything other than your bladder
