i couldnt believe my ears when I first heard his album. it was devastatingly beautiful. Takes you to places and landscapes in your head you would never have known existed...
Truly beautiful music.......and if you like this , listen to Ennio Morricone's sound track to Fist Full of Dynamite and also the voice of Abril Dell'orso generally,
who is the one you hear mostly in Sergio leone films, you find Goldfrapps influence.
Definitely my favorite song from Goldfrapp. It's a mix of so many things. Innocence, mystery, freedom, love, and serenity all in one. All of this without words. Amazing
I'm still so amazed by this album. I can't express how much i love to sing Goldfrapp' songs when i'm on stage. This music has given me such bliss and comfort.
This song sings to my dreams. I just want nothing more than to escape this life of routine and stress and run off to a beautiful forest in the mountains. Nothing but me, friends, my lover and the animals. And we're all laughing because we are FREE. FREE to love each other in peace away from all the chaos we left behind.
i hope ms. goldfrapp has credited ennio morricone and his song "invenzione per john" written for the movie "fistfull of dynamite" directed by the legendary sergio leone. it's a direct cover fyi. lovely song(s) though.
This song reminds me of hiking up a mountain with the sleeping bag and necessities all on the pack. It would be sunrise and the light shines on one side of the face and dances in the eyes.
It seems Canada is a bit like Switzerland but much bigger (everything). So my parents and some other people told me.. I still like to go to Canada one day:).
I'm from Canada, and I suppose you could say that Canada and Switzerland are alike. If it's the really big mountains you are talking about, then it's all in the western side, past the Prairies (I'm from the Maritimes) :)
Out of all of Sergio Leone spaghetti westerns I liked this movie the best. It's a shame that Goldcrapp so blantly copied the piano work and overall tone/feel of the song.
Wow--not to disparage dear Ms. Goldfrapp, but that really does sound very similar. On another note, how does that film compare to Good, Bad, and the Ugly?
it does sound very much the same, thank you for the link. however there is nothing new under the sun, everything has been done. I personally like goldfrapps interpretation better than the link. It pulls on my emotional stings so much more. The other one kinda bores me, even though it is very pretty. Goldfrapp's voice, and unique minor chords and sounds is what makes it different
The two songs are very different just like Ice Ice Baby and Under Pressure are very different songs. My point is not about lyrics I think they sampled. I bet no songwriting credit or royalties were given.
but will is a very accomplished composer...and i find it rather absurd to say they would sample when none of the other tracks on the album don't sound that way at all. i'm sure that score(and alison has played giu la testa when doing DJ gigs,btw)was purely a catalyst for this track. if they were directly inspired by this,they did a very inspiring job in doing so. especially using it as a transition for pop music. no one has ever done that before.
and btw,if it weren't for goldfrapp and their endless counting of morricone as an influence on this album,i don't think many people of our generation(including myself) would have ever discovered morricone's genius as a composer. he's highly influential.
I wanna go. Please take me there. Let's go..... Water I can drink. Snow on my feet. I'll pick some tulips. May I have some chocolate? Tell the other ones I want no part of their reality. Dance with me. Hi Mr. Owl please let me grow wings and fly to the top of the mountain with you. Tell the others I don't want a part of their reality. I love you.
WOW:)) It´s wonderful! Thanks for share.
