Not me letting out a little gay squeal at those photos.

Mother likes me!

This album is incredible from beginning to end. There’s genuinely no filler and it just feels like a huge celebration of pop queerness.

I don’t understand the (thankfully few) negative posts about it. It’s a masterclass in what pop music should deliver.

 

[Consideration]

Now I liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive my liiiiiiiiiiiiiiifeeeeeeeee in the suuuuuuunn while the bridge breaks down one of the best musical moments this year it's true.

Vogue interview here.

Very happy to see her emphasizing again that Goldfrapp the duo is not over.

”I’d wanted for quite a long time to make something that was much more rhythm-based, beats-based, straight-up dance-y and poppy, all of those things, and I didn’t always feel like it was appropriate with Goldfrapp for various reasons.”

It’s quite interesting that she’s aware of that in such a conscious way. I think the main thing that sets this record apart from her work with Will is the way it’s less… cerebral? It’s meticulously crafted, of course, but it feels a bit more effortless and carefree, less serious.

Looking forward to seeing her live tonight!

ROCKET???????????

 

[VeryPSB]

She was incredible tonight! And 2 massive bops from Head First - that’s definitely Pop Justice!

 

[AshtrayHeart]

Justice for Head First, I was literally just watching the Rocket video before I saw this setlist, I love how the setlist is tailored to the new album.

 

[Voicething]

I cannot put into words the reaction when Rocket came on. The roof literally blew off.

It got the biggest reaction of the night and Alison looked genuinely elated at how it went down.

 

[ManilaChinchilla]

That set list is good enough to make me want to see her in Edinburgh
