  • great video thanks

  • you have some great stuff here

  • I love this song, I can't help it, it's so fantastic....

  • allison, marry me <3

  • Muy a lo Beatles y algo Pink Floyd...Esto es lo mejor que han podido darnos los británicos hdp

  • Along with 2-3 Valiums, this song can almost chill me out.

  • This song gives me goosebumps, and thats in a positive way!

  • Goldfrapp's music makes no sense to me.

  • @Kayonmangement thanks for your input!

  • @Kayonmangement Look up on wikipedia about their music, it tells you the meaning of most of them. Alot of them are to do with Alisons life, her experiences etc.

  • @Kayonmangement Good! That's the way we planned it!

  • ... gahh

  • If I had a voice even 1/2 as sweet as Alison's I would sing all the time ... so I guess the world should be thankfull that I don't lol

  • damn ,.Alison. i'm in love with you,. just in MONSTER LOVE with YOU. have been for what seems now like EVER,. a song bird angel in our dark world.

  • I could have a real tough day at work,,, then pour a glass of wine and stick this on my headphones...and everything ... melts away....... bliss....

  • This video was just added to a music playlist at JustPlay.fm

  • I just watched Jack goes boating, a very good movie, and absolutely loved this song! The colours in the video are exactly the colours I see in my head when listening to this.

  • @pridden76 had to stop the movie myself.

  • beautiful song, but darkly so

  • 1:39 gets me

  • @ganaka16 3:00 gets me! = D

  • Jack Goes Boating brought me here. Had to know this song. It's so striking.

  • This song is probably the best song on the Seventh Tree album. Like other comments before, very underrated band. It's a shame they aren't more well known in the USA. One of my favorite Electronica bands of all time.

  • perfect.

  • I really like the video to this, it works really well

  • If a pretty video was made with this music, it would be nicer.

  • This song is full of memories... Grandpa, I hope you´re doing well no matter where you are right now! :´-/

  • She's a good lyricist and conceptual artist. Her layered mix-ins are awesome.

  • I MUCH prefer this side of Goldfrapp. I hope thier next album is a continuation of Seventh Tree

  • In the beginning of the song her vocal is exactly like Marc Bolan's.

  • Eat Yourself? No thanks.... But nice song!

  • What are the actual lyrics to this? I looked them up and there are so many different ones and they don't sound right.

  • Wow, makes us want to expose our secret drug trips so waiting police filing everything we type coordinate efforts against us in this "new battlefield" helped along by the media ( with plenty of advertising of course).

  • any one else here this in jack goes boating phs directorial debut its good

    

  • I hope they will go to another direction for the next album , the ABBA influenced last one did not do it for me.

  • I luv this song!So beautiful!It reminds me to the past.

  • the instrumental in this is a song in itself. props

  • outstanding :)

  • this song/album/allofgoldfrapps work got me through last winter <3

  • to many mushrooms?!?

  • SOMEONE CAN TELL ME WHAT IS THE GENERE OF THIS KIND OF SINGERS\BANDS? I JUST LOVE'EM

  • @oliban78 The fact you can't pigeon-hole Goldfrapp is both what simultaneously make them so great, and indicts the music industry in general.

  • @NihilistImp THANX!!! anyway,she rocks and all the band! thnx again ;oD

  • @NihilistImp THANX!!! is just i always hear that they're inside the chill-out,the acidjazz and so...anyway,she rocks and all the band! thnx again ;oD

  • @oliban78

    This track is very Joan Beaz ... folk / new age perhaps?

  • @oliban78 Goldfrapp plays around with a lot of different kinds of music, its difficult to pigeon hole their style into one genre. This particular song sounds like folk music to me tough.

  • @EpicNoodle1 not really....a good folk band is fleet foxes!

  • love this song

  • heavy.

  • The perfect song.

  • The best lesbian singer ever xhugzx oh she is a lesbian, if you didn't know that then hahahahaha! "Pilots (on a star)" is about sex toys and "Lovely Head" is about whispering (licking each other at the same time) x

  • @Vasilouxxx ffs, Alison is a person!!!! i don't get why people need to put people in boxes like "best lesbian ever" thats a stupid thing to say, im sure that Alison wouldn't approve of your comment either, she doesn't like labels she said....

  • @snowball1988 Yeah but that's some serious Gaga hate. Gaga SUPPORTS the gay community, sure, but Alison IS gay. That's ownage right there.

  • Goldfrapp is another word for amazing!!- I totally love Goldfrapp and Alison's vocal range is super- Shes great live too !! :)

  • there are girls like this, beautiful, cleaver, creative, wonderful voice... creatures from god who you just can dream of :-/

  • go to hell

  • Optigan!!!

  • this album got me through last winter <3

  • Wow. I like this song. But what the hell is she saying. None of the lyrics sites seem to have it right.

  • the 8mm footage is demuritive and sad. Not unlike a softer Rob Zombie movie heh heh.....amazing vid, amazing voice, amazing harmony!!!

  • she is just amazing.. i laugh, i cry... i live through goldfrap!

  • Such a sweet voice and...........haircut.

  • She has such a high vocal range and the equipment for the electronia of her songs expands on things already really damn great.

  • this is my favourite song on the album, I just drift off and melt with her beautiful voice in my headphones, but its even better seein her on here at the same time...... she's soooo .ssssssssssssssexy..........:)

  • sweet as honey ............. <3

  • Very underrated band.

  • Except it's not a band.

  • Okay, fine. Duo.

    Goodness! A fellow pedant! I must say, it did bother me after I posted the comment.

    Oh wow, it's coffee time already.

    Wait, why am I telling you this?

  • duo would be the proper term

  • @chulk607

    Not really! - for over half a decade now.

  • @chulk607 Criminally underrated.

  • @chulk607 not really

  • @chulk607 Underrated? Who exactly isn't rating them? They've got multiple platinum certified records in the UK.

  • @BigJohnWoody ALOT of people don't know Goldfrapp and the beautiful music the create. I

    If I meet someone in my country and they know about Goldfrapp, I'm surprised.. Its because it rarely happends.

  • @BigJohnWoody they are underrated, in turns of chart performance and generally to me their make some of the cleverest music ever, everything is so subtle, the music is always so powerful and visual, no matter what styles they choose,and I really think Head First is Goldfrapp's most underrated album (not best, most underrated)as always its so visulal,clever subtle and really relates to the artwork and general themes, structurally headfirst is very unusual but you don't notice its that creative

  • I love her... her voice, her sounds... it's amazing

  • it's like to be in downtown of haeven !

  • perfect

  • production is great.....

  • Her voice is beautiful

  • yeasayer remix has a little more jam too it, but still love the original

  • eh si eh !!! ^_^

  • stunning ..... nothing else to say... just listen

  • this is one of the first songs u sent me andrea mou.x

  • she's fast, she's slow, i love it all!

  • Comment removed

  • brilliant. one of my faves from seventh tree :)

  • Einfach nur - WOW! °(^_^)°

  • Alison....pure love in a voice......

  • I love this song i love how bitter swet it makes me feel when i listen too it

  • This song is so awesome...

  • im in love with allison! AMAZING singer/songwriter... this and Pilots are 2 of the most beautiful songs EVER!

  • such an amazing song. i adore goldfrapp

  • this video always depresses me in a beautifully depressing way if that makes any sense. I love their creativity. And I love love love her<3333 she's aboslutely fabulous

  • @thesadparty its so beautiful is could make you cry

  • Comment removed

  • how wonderful...

    amazing!

  • the background music sounds like a horror movie music; good song though

  • she look soo hot at 3:11

  • she looks so hot all the time. ;)

  • She has a hauntingly beautiful voice.

  • Goldfrapp is of my top favorite artists! She eminates beauty and art....something lacking in our current music industry. Music is no longer music...it's just 'sound.' (main-stream)

    And wtf is happening to Europe? They're top 10 consist of American pop and R&B stars like Beyonce and Justin Timberlake? Sad sad sad!

  • lol, here in norway we listen to 80's american rock music. I was made for loving you by kiss is a very popular song here.

  • is this a fan video or official?

  • Great song and album - took me a year to give it a second listen - I was expecting something more like the previous album but I now love seventh tree lots too :)

  • I felt the same way when I first bought it last year...now this is one of my favorite songs by Goldfrapp! Just behind 'Pilots' and 'Lovely Head'

  • Me too - now this song gives me goosebumps, I love it

  • Its great to hear that so many people are now giving it a chance. When it first came out I felt the same way because the first song I'd heard I didn't like. But after giving it another chance and exploring I found myself often having to defend it because everyone wanted it be more electric and fun. I tried to explain to them that it was aninteresting blend of all of their previous records. I was just happy to hear inspirations from felt mountain in this one. I think its some of their best work.

  • This might be my favorite song on the album. I have the booklet w/ hand-drawn lyrics & doodles that came with the deluxe cd set ... will check them out and post *that* version of the song tomorrow.

  • Ah well, the 'seated on that land' line is absent from the booklet lyrics. As is the reference to the 'blade is deep'. In the first stanza, I hear:

    If you don't eat yourself no doubt the pain instead

    you could love your life seated on that land

    ...and in second stanza I hear:

    If you don't eat yourself no doubt the blade is deep

    ...but it may be 'pain is deep'

  • My favourite too!

  • I found differents versions of these lyrics, dunno what is the real one, some stars with :"If you don't eat yourself

    No doubt the blade is deep You could love your life Seated on that land " ; other "If you know me good, See it now, the blade is deep, You could loathe the lie Seen in all that now" ; "If you don't eat yourself

    No doubt the pain will instead

    You could longer life

    Sitting on that land "

  • IS THIS THE OFFICIAL VIDEO?

  • i uh...like the title

  • yes... pure beauty ... mhmhmhmhmmmmmmm

  • I could listen to this album all day long................ actually I do. I love their music! Just beautiful.

  • Great(er)work yet

  • Beautiful....

  • This song gives me chills . . . in fact, all Goldfrapp songs give me chills. Goldfrapp music = a gift to my ears

  • This song oozes melody.

  • does anyone know the meaning of 'eat yourself' in the lyrics? it just does not make any sense to me

  • The great thing about Goldfrapp to me is that I no longer have to question their lyrics. It doesn't have to mean anything to me and I'll accept it just the same. That makes a true artist in my eyes.

  • I can't begin to tell you how much I love Goldfrapp. Their music is a great ecape.

  • if you don't eat yourself, no doubt the pain'll instead. if you don't eat yourself, you will explode instead. cos i love, love you so, but i know you don't love me. you wouldn't last that long. get wicked, let it come

  • if you don't eat yourself no doubt the pain will instead. you could longer life, sate it on that lamb. you went south on a train. she wore plastic boots for rain. and you crawl along a thin line. you dream death'll colour me. who will i be when i'm with you again? silver jet in the sky. you were the pain. got a song; got to sing. for life.

  • Doesnt it says: "If you don't eat yourself

    No doubt the blade is deep "

  • lmao thats kinda dark and it does sound like it

  • amazing song, amazing, i love alison

  • I fell in love with this song the minute I heard it... : )

  • alison, will you marry me?

    (;

  • beautiful.

  • Beautiful song, I cry everytime I hear it.

    Thank you very much for uploading

  • I thought the song was made to illustrate a beautiful moment at first :)

    until I've checked the lyrics, it made the song quite sad :(

  • the most amazing thing ive ever heard.

  • the original is better

  • I thought this was the original, woops.

    This song is glorious.

  • sry I confound it with the yeasayer remix because I've listened to both of the songs at the same time and this comment should be for the yesayer remix

  • Ahha, makes sense.

  • the yeasayer remix of this song is amazing.

  • this sh!t's bananaz :) but wot she's singing at times is ????????

  • is this the official video?

  • "if you don't eat yourself

    no doubt the pain will instead.

    If you don't eat yourself

    you will explode instead"

  • somthing very healing about this song.

  • wonderful^^

  • ya me 2 but i don't need 2 understand anything she is saying b/c the song by itself makes a big amount of sense and truth by itself with out the lyrics. god i luv this song, i always hear it when am depressed and am always depressed so that means i always luv this song

  • as much as i love this song soo freakin much... i dont understand half the words she says :(

  • i just heard this song 2 days ago and am in love with it, it's sooooo deeeep.

  • Maintaining the 'eloquence'... Felt mountain was like a cold, dark, misty night. Seventh tree is like a cold, fresh and sunny morning. Lacks the smoke form Black Cherry and Felt, but gains light and promise.

    Nevermind that.

  • i dont know what the fuck you just said but ok.

  • Haha.

  • wow, another comment but what an eloquent lot commenting on this video :) goldfrapp inspires and reveals the beauty in all things i think :)

  • the words are amazing to all their songs, and album names, felt mountain, seventh tree, the song horse tears, eat yourself, soft sounds

    a way with words is what they have, horse tears is an amazing image i always thought, simply beautiful music

    enchanting

  • lyrics sounding more like a lost baby. Just loving Gfrapp tunes the past few months. Caught this song and love it. The words sound like muttled fragments of death (acc. or otherwise)I can see why maybe Allison chose to muttle them. Great song nonetheless...

  • amazing

  • Does somebody have the REAL! lyrics for that great song?

  • this song is so calming its beautiful, i especialy like 2:06 - 2:20

  • I'll say what I always say: its all of their albums put together. So many hints and fusions from felt mountain, black cherry, super nature. A wonderful combination of romanticism, folk and electric seduction.

  • I think thats what I love about all of her albums. Unlike many others i only put her albums rarely, for the simple reason of that i won't be able to do anything else until the album is finished. Its just so hard to pull yourself away from them, they're that good.

  • beautiful! DAMN!

  • I for one find 7th tree the best album after Supernature. Felt Moutain and 7th Tree are tied in 2nd place to me.

  • such seeping mellow seduction draws me in ,when i listen to this i wanna just lay where i am ...

  • She is so beautiful. I love this song and Alison :)

  • This song is one of the best on the album, but I feel that this album was not her best.

    She has obviously gone for more calming songs but I really enjoyed the more up beat songs like Fly Me Away on Supernature and Strict Machine on Black Cherry.

  • jakepeep: well, to me thats the good thing about goldfrapp - they dont like to repeat themselves, i dont see the point in releaseing an album that sounds the same every time

    i also looooove the upbeat stuff too but if i want to hear it i will listen to the older albums, i dont need a new one sounding the same, i prefer the variety that they give while still sounding like the same band...

  • that's true, I never thought of it like that, I like the album more now though after listening to it over and over.

    I am actually enjoying Felt Mountain a lot at the moment but can't find it to buy anywhere.

  • This song and Clowns are my favourites of the disc

  • esta cancion esta con madre me gusto mucho estas si son canciones

  • beautifully done and all but you guys realize the og version is muy better

  • All the great artists are older.

  • I love this song

    I Love Godlfrapp

    <33

  • this song is so gorgeous

  • truly heaven sent...

  • Most beautiful...

    Gets me every time I listen to this.

    xsx

    LOVE & RESPECT

  • what & how did she get that effect on the camera/film?

  • it was filmed with a special camera and film that gives that old grainy effect!

  • its called super 8, love :]

    gorgeous, innit?
