Friday

accident & emergency.

if you know me, then you know that i am GIGANTIC fan of the brilliant british electronic music duo : Goldfrapp. so, naturally, this afternoon when i woke up to find a text message from a dear Goldfrapp friend of mine telling me that their new album artwork for 'Seventh Tree' had been revealed, i was completely ecstatic! the cover is gorgeous. the colours, her eyes...perfection.
i'm loving alison as a pirate.

and of course, i just had to make an extra post to share it all with you;



Greetings Deers

A happy New Year to you all. We hope that you enjoyed your special Christmas message from Goldfrapp and that you all had a happy holiday. If you haven't seen the clip, it has to come down by Twelfth Night, so for a last look you can click here:

As promised we have lots of news for you all, with even more coming next week.

We've got some very exciting A&E news... we have added the track to the band's MySpace so that you can listen to it at your leisure.

Also, the video is in and looks great. Those lovely people at C4 will be showing it EXCLUSIVELY on Saturday 12th January in Freshly Squeezed on T4. The show is on air at 9.50am and the video will be repeated at midnight on the same day. Overseas Deers, don't worry, you will get to see the video too, as we will be adding it to the Goldfrapp Channel on YouTube, which can be found here, just as soon as we can:

A&E, the single, is amazing. and i must admit that at first listen, i wasnt too thrilled because it is so different from their past stuff, but once youve read the lyrics [check out the A&E column to the right], know the story behind it & just listen to her voice, you will fall in love. it's just so tragically beautiful. definitely check out their myspace page or better yet my own, to have a listen.

ps. i found this fab little article last nite
doesnt alison look adorable?!
oh, im so in love!


it's just all too much. i am overwhelmed with happiness.
how on earth am i going to make it through seeing them live? sigh.
i'll keep you updated, darlings.

love, A.
