Goldfrapp - Clowns (TV Performance)

[andresikb]

Day and night I'm watching you...

[chasboz]

Sublime, mysterious and beautiful, yes Brett Seventh Tree is the most amazing album in the world.

[KOALAsounds]

incredible track

[aptsys]

I can't hear any words. Nice tune though

[Babelfish112]

gives me shivers! so beautiful!

[Luv8sU213]

Best song about breast implants EVER.

[bolicsoundz]

"Titties that go on and on and on"

LOL this song is amazing

[thevoid99]

unlike a lot of today's pop singers. she can really sing. i love what alison goldfrapp's voice.

[TheCtownbrown16]

it's about women going under th knife to make their appearance look better...actually a sad song...don't know why allison decided to it...she has always looked beautiful in my eyes

[lmlOoOlml]

fkkn awesome

[weldric]

All Simply Excellent

[chellywuzhere636]

i dont care what anyone says, this is one of the best goldfrapp albums

[Babelfish112]

@chellywuzhere636 I love each album for what it is, but yeah Felt Mountain was amazing like Seventh Tree, and then Black Cherry was awesome for the Electro sound

[chellywuzhere636]

@Babelfish112 I love everything goldfrapp puts out but this one is just my personal favorite

[Babelfish112]

@chellywuzhere636 yeah Goldfrapp is amazing, one of best artists out there! She is so talented <3

[mellifluousnebula]

my favorite song lately. nice band, nice lady they can stay at my house please.

[malloy0428]

she's definitely channeling some old school Bolan

[icemanisdangerous]

Horrible horrible little woman. with a woefully weak voice. really is a little bitch. I know I've met her.

[tiamatefalco2]

mime but stil very good.

[chellywuzhere636]

@tiamatefalco2 most tv shows sadly make great artists mime

[edielover]

Please, can someone tell me that this is live and not playback? thanks

[musclexboy]

This melody is so beautiful that I have shivers running up my spine :)

[2xk2xk]

wow the lyrics is short but good song

[Ibeedw]

This melody is amazing. It´s often sort of my lullybye :)

[floatygabz]

she's so fantastic :)

[clubpenguinlovalady]

Rocket is better..

[THECRAZY88ARTS]

ur mom is better

[clubpenguinlovalady]

@THECRAZY88ARTS

Yeah much much better!! Wait , is that a good thing??

[kernowrock555]

I love the way Ali masks the humour in this song with such beautiful sincere tones!......I love her hair like that. very very sexy gal....

[futuristfood]

.....: )P

[xoio]

Alison & Will are different from the miazmic sludge that is todays (last 15+ year in fact) mainstream 'pop', because they create strong melodies & harmonies & actually use the voice in proper note progression.

She is 21st Century's Kate Bush!

Sublime

[SkeletorInLove]

@xoio well said!

[PetulantCat]

simple, beautiful, funny and true

[pattyseebs]

you've taken the words directly out of my mouth x

[PetulantCat]

thanks pattyseebs :)

[clubpenguinlovalady]

Wat u mean u cant hear um!!

[kilja11]

amazing song. strange that its about fake tits though!! hahaha its true!

[Stig5440]

@kilja11 Yeah it's true, listen to the words people: "Only clowns would play with them balloons........whaddya wanna look like Barbie for?........titties that go on and on". Yep!! Fake tits!!!!

[clubpenguinlovalady]

@Stig5440

I can't hear those words!!

[elmuneco1973]

my ex-girlfriend ask to me:...why do u ear that so boring songs?

...but i think only 1 thing : why she don't can't listen it?

[doodaahman27]

you are so freakin cute

[iXaaCto]

@elmuneco1973 your ex, for sure, was a rustic bitch. Thanks God you're not together anymore.

[kevhint]

Just the most calming and sublime sound Iv ever heard.

[Tejinu]

@kevhint I couldn't agree more.

[putoyelow]

all this album are wonderfull

[eenzo295]

somebody said art... That is ART alright !

[dbongo1977]

I really like the "Harlequin" look she has for this whole album.

[TalalaRockStar]

A lot more like Pierrot I would say.

She doesn't wear as many colours, and doesn't look happy like Harlequin.

Pierrot is the sad clown. That lost his lover to Harlequin

[CineRecon]

I don't know what she's saying but I don't care, it's a beautiful song.

[ORIGINALbabyphat]

Yea I didn't find out ANY words aside from the first line until like, last month when my friend looked them up...but it's one of the top ten most played songs in my iTunes and I've fallen asleep with it playing on a loop.

[theoriginalbenben]

only clowns would play with those balloons. whadd'ya wanna look like barbie for. dear oh lord its easy. roasting roasting roasting. deed, mahogany. titties that live on and on. only clowns would play with those balloons. passive when i'm in record. day and night i'm watching you

[GANGARENE]

@CineRecon - "Only clown would play with those balloons, what do you wanna look like Barbie for?"...she is singing about silicone implants....

[sallyfieldrequired]

@CineRecon turns out it's actually about breast implants

[TheButtonNose]

@CineRecon Shes singing about women who have breast enlargement..i guess

[dylanrohdes]

Absolutely beautiful.

[jeffmocapaldi01]

so so downners.. cool

[DetroitMarauder]

Brilliant

All I can say.

[Koshenteo]

love this song!!! this one really made me pay close attention to this gifted and talented singer!! the whole album is fantastic!!!

[budgethemusicsponge]

It's Mahogany Pal!! Read the lyrics.

[etherealromance]

"only clowns would play with those balloons.

what do you want a barbie for?"

and its MONOGAMY not "mahogany"

lol

[betweentwoislands]

Nope, it is mahogany 'lol'... And its 'what do you want to look like barbie for?

So all in all, well done.

[Bobsherunkle]

You got that right, pal!

[flyingmojo5]

Wow. I liked Goldfrapp before but now I LOVE her. She is a goddess

[dimitribeta]

it's 'them', not 'her'. But credit to her, cause i thought after becoming the sexy electro goddess she would would go solo and commercial; shows she's got balls and a dedication to her art.

[sensitizedminogue]

She is very voice is amazing.

I can sit down and listen to it for hours

Who knows maybe days.

[0MarciaAlexandria0]

sad and enchanting and beautiful

[0MarciaAlexandria0]

beautiful song

[theglobalgypsies]

I just love this album!!! it rocks!!!

[zoomflesh]

i agree

[redsvision72]

This just shows the incredible versatility and talent of Goldfrapp to go from elektronica to a natural sounding folksy album which is incredibly beautiful and atmospheric in its own right.

[GungaDine]

Bloody perfect, thats right!

[LUCIDity2009]

This album is so bloody perfect... makes me cry.

[mierdenhausen]

they should back to the Felt Mountain style, but sounds really good

[nikkisn20]

they should thats my favorite album......

[Crijevo]

After Black Cherry and Supernature clichés, Goldfrapp finally made a stunningly beautiful album... A perfect springtime-like counterpart to their winter-ish debut from 2000.

[nzge15]

i have a thing for goldfrapp ..

[haggspah]

I'm with you there.

She's gorgeous.

[Hex72]

Third.

[TheRedScareIsAlive]

I like Goldfrapp but i don't like how she said that Duffy has no credibility. Who does she think she is Fucking PJ Harvey... she does dance music for God's sake.

[OnBetamax]

well stills deserve more respect than duffy xD

[ohelpmusiclodge13]

why does she sound like shes got her jaw ripped out for? i love this song and she was amazing when she performed at newcastle!!

[frikki1]

brill..

[ThewOrldIssqUare]

was this sped up or something? it sounds way faster than i remember.... :-/

[dmkk90046]

Only clowns would play with those balloons

Passive when I'm in record

Day and night I'm watching you

Roasting, roasting, roasting deed

Mahagony

Titties that live on and on and on and on

Only clowns would play with those balloons

What d'ya wanna look like Barbie for

Dear oh Lord, it's easy

[dsignrdane]

i love the randomness of their lyrics

[hungmunchkin]

It's a lovely sound, but I wish the lyrics were audible.

[skimsk808]

this song reminds me of catching the bus home from a long day of shredding at sandy beach. im young and am in no rush to go anywhere so i enjoy watching the sun dissappear as i reminisce about the day in my warm seat in the back of the bus.

[jennifside]

i was thinking more of a kate bush style!! both amazing.. i dont understand why goldfrapp arent HUGE in the states.. makes me sad!

[tpcornholio]

Well im in the states and i think its GREAT!!!!! Beautiful voice. Reminds me of a singer from the 60s. Dont remember which tho.

[Aristosek]

This one's style remind me Elisabeth Fraser from Cocteau Twins.

[djlyxia]

I heard Rasputina's cover of this song before hearing the original.. and then saw this video. I thought the same exact thing! I wonder if she admits Cocteau Twins was an inspiration?

[GellyVelly]

Heh, indeed Melora's latest release turned me on to this song as well. I like this version as well, but I can't help but like Melora's version even more.

[emidark]

you're right, sounds like Milk and Kisses album by CT

[stinavai]

i have this song on repeat. its beautiful. hope they make it to maui some time.

[lu1992lu]

Brilliant !

[Stevenspielburger]

Absolutely sublime!
