@Mirror why are u being treated like a troll ? You seem to have missed my point I made several times, it's not what you said, it's How you said it -impact over intent. Well...that and the personal attack on Alison. .

You miss the point that on a discussion forum, kicking off with "Al you **** , Head First ~ I haven't heard so much shit since I last saw Two Girls One Cup" isn't going to give you Prime Ministers Question Time.
Healthy discussion is ok but within the confines of "objectivity" and without repeating yourself/trolling , if you come to a forum just to be contrary, it just becomes tedious.

I'll ignore the constant condescension .

Every traffic wreck has its casualties.

Again! Can't stop looking. I think I'm getting a crick in my neck.

@Minsku

Nothing wrong with being happy - even Mirror smiles from time to time.

But it does get a bit weird: mindlessly adding smilies to everything, wetting ones underpants over something that is two seconds long, the dreadful "OMG" as Sartori said..

And as for group hugs...well, bad enough in real life, but virtual ones!?

Mirror just adds some perspective to the happy-happy atmosphere on here: not everyone is jumping up and down just because Goldfrapp have made a new album.

Scepticism is not too misplaced.

There were group hugs? Damn, I completely missed out on that. :(

Seriously though, don't you think you're being a bit disrespectful? Basically what you are implying is that people who are positively looking forward to the new album are bunch of brainless idiots, unable to even form their own opinions. That must also be why you feel such a big need to bring us some of your personal perspective, no?

Well, dear Mirror, let me tell you something. I'm most certainly not jumping up and down only because Goldfrapp happens to be releasing a new album soon. The real reason I'm excited is because, believe it or not, I actually really liked the Tales of Us trailer and all the little snippets we have been able to hear so far. And to be honest, I haven't been this enthusiastic about anything Goldfrapp related in a very, very long time!

So, all of that being said, would it really be too much to ask for that you could just allow me to enjoy this feeling as long as it lasts and let me be all happy Frappy? After all, I'm more than capable of making my own decisions, so please don't try to shove your scepticism and negativity down my throat.

Thanks! I knew you would understand! :)

I'm getting more and more convinced that quite a few people use internet only to try to convince themselves that they are superior (ignore all lyrics except first half of chorus)

Good One


Peace Man!

what a waste of time and energy this thread was hence why all my contributions are disappearing sad when I have to be a self appointed Stalinist like this

I've yet to check out Grimes, sorry, I hear a lot of people raving about her and so on, and I will check her out, but really is it fair to say Goldfapp is not as groundbreaking???
