I pick up which has a picture of Alison sexy in her black hat she has 2 wolves draped over her on the back cover there is a pair of legs hers I presume in red stiletoes black and white stripy socks scratches on her legs (from the woves one supposes) .There is an insert picture of Alison on a bed with a wolf. I put it on my player and listen.
CRYSTALINE GREEN, Is the first track. Alisons luscious sultry voice sings (Here we come) to the crunching electro synths and the melodies, which ascend and descend a great beginning to this Cd that I am listening to on this sunny morning before I go to work.

2 TRAIN
You can hear the train coming fast along the track a strong beat that stomps its way through this track. I think this track was released as a single. Throbbing rhythms to the end of this track. This track was used in a gameboy commercial on the TV


3 BLACK CHERRY
Alison starts sing this ballad in a hushed voice. Her siren voice keeps you listening to this song

4 TIPTOE
You feel good; you feel right, youre so good. Tiptoe over me tiptoe na naa naa naa naa naa sung in high octave breaths and deep manly tones. The music swirling around. This track is used in a coca-cola advert.

5 DEEP HONEY
. This song does not really seem to get started. Think it must have got stuck in the
Honey.

5 HAIRY TREES, Hairy trees starts of more promising, but although a pleasant Ballard sung beautifully by Alison does not quite make it for me.


7 TWIST.
This is a bit livelier with a poppy beat. I sit her tapping the keys in time to the music singing the words inside my head Twist it round and round again and again, kiss me like you love me twist it round again and again

8 Strict Machines
This starts and my body immediately starts to rock its got a driving electronic beat and Alisons voice just perfect. (Im in love, Im in love with strict machine). This track really wants to make me get up and dance. This track was used in a game boy TV commercial

9 FOREVER
A slightly slower track, Its ok but does not hold my attention so much I have time to lazily sip my cup of tea.

10 SLIPAGE
This sounds livelier a good slow steady beat compulsive listening, some wailing and moaning, some beautiful sounds. OH its finished thats not fair I wanted some more. This album has some really good tracks on and one or two not so good but overall a good listen. I would like to see/hear Goldfrapp live May be I will one day.
