Goldfrapp: Ride A White Horse (live)


Here is a shockingly decent and catchy live rendition of the Goldfrapp song "Ride on a White Horse." Despite being a late adapter and accidental fan of her music, the werewolf finds she strikes a nice balance between the rock, pop, and electronic genres. Several things pop about this stage production. First and foremost, the hippie dude playing the keytar is novel and amusing. Secondly, the set production of the white dancing mares contrasted against Goldfrapp's black attire provides a very nice visual tension between purity and lust. The provocative and sexual choreography of the mares rhythmic moves bring the music alive  in a visually strange and bestial way. Anyhow, here's to enjoying some new music.

Goldfrapp: Fly Me Away


Exile has forced the werewolf to make the local Starbuck's his de facto office. He usually finds their ambient music selection strange and forgettable. However, this song was played yesterday and it stuck with him. There is something extremely intoxicating and soothing about Goldfrapp's voice. Beyond being simple, catchy, and a tad too electronic, the werewolf finds he likes this song the more he listens to it. It's very easy to sway to this song.
