I don't have any of her albums, just singles and various cuts. Guess it's time for me to go on a Goldfrapp binge and buy all three albums. I think her voice is lucious
 
Supa, I'm sure you'll love it. Maybe I wouldn't call it 'genius', like I originally did (I think I was a bit smitten) but it's still the best album I've heard all year. Wait 'til you hear 'Time Out From The World'. Beautiful.  And you'd definitely love 'Black Cherry' - it's so dirty and luxurious at the same time. Let me know what you think!
And dancerella, I'm glad your copy has arrived.  It probably is genius. I would not doubt that term as applied to Miss Goldfrapp. I LOVE LOVE LOVE train and a friend included Black Cherry on a mix CD he made for me last Christmas and it was so out of character for the rest of the CD I just dug it 
Can't wait to get ahold of this. 2010: Healing the Wounds of the Past.... http://prince.org/msg/8/325740 | |

I'm surprised the big chains aren't carrying it. Usually Tower and Virgin are good at stocking imports. Yeah, I didn't mind too much about spending that much as i figured that would be the price. I bought mine at Tower Records! | |

 WOWEE ZOWEE!
I finally found a copy of 'Supernature' today! (At the same Tower that didn't have it two days ago, grrr.) This album is incredible--like the Human League, Kraftwerk and Fischerspooner throwing one big party! Onenitealone was not exaggerating one bit in the initial post. Easily Goldfrapp's best album yet. | |

I've only listened to it twice now, had it on whilst working
and I have to be honest and say that it sounds like one long song to me. By the time I checked the playlist to see which song was on, it was already at the last song!! It sounded as if they'd structured a dozen songs around the same drumbeat. A bit boring, but I'll give it another try and listen more attentively. and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

I understand your criticism, but I interpreted that characteristic as the album being more consistent than the previous two. On 'Felt Mountain' and 'Black Cherry', there were songs that I really liked and songs that I didn't care for. On 'Supernature' however, I really like every song. Is that because they all sound similar? Perhaps, but this is all subjective anyway, right? | |

SO glad you like it! I'm glad it was worth the wait. (And that my initial enthusiasm wasn't misplaced.  ). | |
