GOLDFRAPP

I watched 'Fly Me Away' these days, and it's amazing, because it made me having a feeling to fly away last October weekend. Anyway, it's a great song and a superb video - so yes, I really like them !

I saw them at the Move Festival in m/cr in 04 while waiting for the god damn mutha fuckin pixies to play.

Golfrapp was shit.

everyone told me that it was just a shit performance and they are much better than that blah blah blah

i still say it's shit.

Bollocks.

Goldfrapp are great.

And Alison is well fit.

Agreed on all counts.

I very liked the first lp. I cannot listen to two songs of the others...

Perfectly put!

I've seen them live lots of times and always tip-top!

Average.

what would you know, goth boy?

Saw them, fat boy.

excellent band. and doing the theme for casino royale, as well!

The only song I know is Strict Machine and I thought she was really interesting on the film clip.

I really like their latest album, but not more than a few other songs of theirs (Strict Machine) from other albums. Early stuff is too loungy for my tastes, but I always thought it would make for good James Bond music.

First album-Good.

Second album-Brilliant.

third album-ok.

Overall i think they`re a good band.

You're comment on Goldfrapp is about right steve mate. Felt Mountain is an excellent chill out/trip hop album which doesn't quite go down the road of disappearing up its own a**e that much of the similar stuff may have done. Black Cherry was excellent IMO moving away from this to a down and dirty electro disco sound which was perfect for the time and Strict Machine was badly ripped off by s*** Club 7's Rachel Stephens. Supernature is also a good album IMO and does have its moments but it's very similar and is a bit of a less good repeat of Black Cherry. They along with Ladytron are the most interesting electronic band to emerge in the last 5 or so years and are excellent live (I met Will and Alison @ the Manchester Academy gig last October). Wouldn't mind them doing a remix for NO some time in the future!

I think Goldfrapp did a horrible job on remixing Depeche Mode's "Halo". :\ohwell:

That's great news! I'm a huge John Barry and David Arnold fan so...

I thought the reports had been denied and it had been revealed that Chris Cornell of Audioslave had recorded the theme tune.

yeah cornell is doing the bond theme

as far as goldfrapp are concerned,

Thumbs up from Snoops

Have seen them a couple of times live, great show

I like them. I don't know if I'd say I love them, but if I have to choose love vs hate I'll go with love.
