Well, I saw them live in Bristol, and after just one hour their Mac broke, and they played one more song acoustically, then just left, it was very disappointing. (Also, it's 'whose', not 'who's, who's is a contraction of 'who is'.
One of the best indeed with Annie Lennox, Tina Turner, Shirley Bassey 83 mezzo Soprano and a few others. Kate Bush, Tina Arena. Her voice reminds me of cristal phenomena. I adore her universe 🎉❤ greetings from France in bad English
I've loved this track dearly for 20 years, and I had a late night drinking/smoking session by the firepit with one of my oldest/best friends last night and played this around 3am thinking that he knew my musical tastes really well, and when I looked at him about halfway through he was staring at the screen with his mouth wide open and tears in his eyes, just totally mesmerised and blown away by the beauty and range of her voice... When it ended (that ending though... Wow...) he could barely speak, until he finally sputtered out "Why have I never heard this before? Play it again... PLEASE..." -So I did, and he totally lost his shit and wandered off to his bed with a weird dreamy smile on his face like he'd been hypnotised or something, and this morning he's taken his son into the city to try and find this on 12" because he's a vinyl-junkie and he needs it in his life SO frikkin bad... So excellent work Alison -your beautiful voice is still changing lives today (November 2021) and you made my bud and I very, very happy indeed...
Felt Mountain is an excellent album. Some of the lyrics are very strange("my dog needs new ears"") and the music can move from quirky, to uneasy, into uplifting and inspirational 😀
But , correct me if I’m wrong , it’s an anti-fascist song , no ? And it seems to be referring to the messing about with genetics and cloning , etc. . That we’ve been told had stopped at the end of WWll but of course never even slowed down . 🔬📎
@@lisacolbert5987 You can place that interpretation on it, I suppose. To me, it's just a dadaist song with nonsensical lyrics: genius.com/Goldfrapp-utopia-lyrics
I couldn't care less about the lyrics. A lot of Goldfrapp vocals are not clear or are nonsense, but the music is just so good it does not matter to me. I think she uses a vocoder for some of the vocal stuff.
@@lisacolbert5987 yes Lisa. You got it right. She's supposedly the result of a genetic enhancement test, confused with herself. At least that's what I read at the time.
Absolutely Brilliant ! - This was the last song Goldfrapp played in their set in Brisbane, Australia in July at the Tivoli - the audience was dumbfounded pleading for more!
Alison said one of her ideas was to become an opera singer. Bloody fine one she would have made, but thank God she didn't go down that route or this piece of heaven would not have been made. Are the lyrics about computerisation. Automatons in control??
Listen to all her lyrics... Strict Machine, Utopia, Pilots... it's all about the potential horrors and opportunities for mankind to evolve. It's NWO stuff. It's Illuminati. But it's awesome and beautiful. It's technology enabled mankind evolved.
Does anyone know the lyrics to the opera portion in the beginning? It's been my goal to learn that part in my singing leasons, and it kills me to not know the lyrics!

Most opera sopranos couldn't nail a performance like this, especially with the finish. Goldfrapp is a goddess.
One of the few artists who's live performances equal or better her studio versions.
The operatic intro is too short and too much in the background on the album!

@@GaryM67-71 1 H only ❓‼️‼️‼️Daamn‼️
This is the best Goldfrapp song and that's it
The most beautiful female voice in the world, and one of the most beautiful women in the world!
rivaled only by Kate Bush
Subjective to say the least but I agree.
Check out her stuff with Orbital.

Her voice is pretty average. I am a fan of the music, but she can't sing very well.
quit saying this is 'strange'. This is an artist doing their job, perfectly..

what a tremendous talent.
Probably the best ever, her operatic voice is unbelievable.
Just amazing performance, only comparable for me would be Bjork come to me,. Man I’m still listening to this . Can’t be doing mumble rap.x
Her performances are amazing
Is there a word beyond amazing?
Transcendent?
I know what you mean, she blows my mind. I'm bewitched.... lost for words
Sublime.
overwhelming?
One of the best ever singing voices...
Wow. I didn't know she could sing like THAT. Amazing, girl!
2023 and this song keeps haunting me delightfully.

Strange..lol.
Welcome to the future
She was going mad isolated by herself in a rotting, vermin infested bungalow they rented.
I think it's a joke, not about a literal dog. See if you can guess who is 'wired to the world'.
I'm 64, been a fan of her for years ❤❤❤❤❤😊
People who just enjoy the gorgeous singing and suddenly pay attention to the lyrics will be in for such a shock! LOL

I thought she was gonna play back that beginning of the song, but she's funcking great, love her !!!

This would make a great Bond tune.
Amazing.....I forget who I am when I listen to this every time.
Well...in fact...You are not. So i dont......We are all illusions, perceived by illusions, that make an illusion of reality.......
I've been listening to them ever since 2001, and have never seen them live. I'm so looking forward to tonight's show in Brussels!!
wow...just lovely..she is so underrated....
Born with a voice only angels could be born with... Simply amazing! Marry me, too :D
I wish I could give this another thumbs up.
Dave Lambert I'll do it for you
That lovely powegul singing voice, and then quite a gruff 'cheers' at the end lol
Mindmodic haha
fuckkkk! Alisson yo talented as hell, that voice thrills me
Saw them live, absolutely amazing
Lucky you! This is one tour I really wish I had seen. But so grateful it's on DVD.

Such an emotional and amazing tune 🌞
Still here 2021 November 4am and this tune is still the bollox. That bass is bad ass. ❤️

What a voice.. Beautiful
Andy you are right..........chills up my spine!!
what a song so many memories, and stunning location
I went to see her last night, fucking amazing!
Still get goosebumps hearing her sing

***** no, i think it is about clones. or the perfect human being.
or so. :3
@@dirtyunclehubert, yes i think so as well, plus the dangers of fascism with that technology.
Listen to all her lyrics... Strict Machine, Utopia, Pilots... it's all about the potential horrors and opportunities for mankind to evolve. It's NWO stuff. It's Illuminati. But it's awesome and beautiful. It's technology enabled mankind evolved.
Ms Goldfrapp✨...so ahead of her time 🙏
Adore the ending! Such a brilliant voice!!!
Haunting and so beautiful, that voice the stuff of dreams. X

This is such an amazing song, and performance. Thank you so much fur uploading.
Absolutely epic performance! Insane vocal range at the conclusion.
Yeah it's off 'Wonderful Electric', Goldfrapp's live DVD. It's 2 DVD's, and it is wonderful.
Utopia for sure.
Really nice vey sensual 2 thumbs up
Unfortunately not what I saw last year at the same venue gone massively down hill, but this is lovely 😎
Yeah her new material is nowhere near as good.sounds very generic dance pop .
Amazing song, group, and amazing live performance of this chart.

That voice is Heaven sent!
Beautiful music❤
Eso debió ser un deleite el escucharla en vivo 😱
My dog needs new ears!
