Lucky guy Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 Poor Alison, I am sure she'd love to convince us that SHE'S SO REAL AND SHE DON'T GIVE A FUCK WHATCHU THINK but in reality all she manages to accomplish is making herself look like a frumpy miserable british cow - and arrogant to boot. Oh I do LOVE a bit of clumsy xenophobia. Also, the [laughs] afterwards COMPLETELY changes the nature of the 'hommage' comment; she knows she's been caught out being a cunt and is being ironic and self aware -anyone who doesn't realise this clearly hasn't watched any Goldfrapp interviews and doesn't get the meter and speech pattern of what she's saying, or doesn't understand irony. What she said about Madonna was uncalled for, but it was an odd question to ask. Why would she have heard a random Madonna album track, and since when did anyone compare LION to Goldfrapp?

ESPECIALLY bland dreck like Black Cherry ( at title, how dare that bytch steal the flavour of my favourite yougurt) And the cunt should be STRUNG UP AND SHOT for daring to rip off King of Pop Serge's Histoire de Melody Nelson I will pick up the new album, but ONCE AGAIN she gets YET ANOTHER mediocre review from NME and doesn't get the CREDIBILITY she so DESPERATELY CRAVES - http://www.nme.com/reviews/goldfrapp/11146 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXL Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 she's not even worthy pronouncing Madonna's name if she had a tenth of Madonna's humbleness and simplicity maybe she would amount to something (even if she's an ok artist) going on a TV show in a foreign country and practically making a fool of the audience and the tv host when you're there to promote something isn't a sign of intelligence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XXL Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 yes to survive for thirty years like she did you need to have a great dose of that humble in the sense that she truly respects every nationality and has always taken a bit of something from every culture and everywhere this alison woman stops performing (playback) gives her shoulders to the camera and then she starts complaining to the host that she can't perform because some baloons are on the floor...... her bitchiness is not even remotely humorous...she came off as rude....madonna never did that to an audience humbleness in that sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skin Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 HUMO 30.03.2010 Have u ever heard Madonna's 'Like It Or Not' from 'Confessions on A Dancefloor'? It was her attempt at making a Goldfrapp record. 'Black Cherry' Godlfrapp to be specific. Alison Goldfrapp : 'Never heard it, that song. I couldn't care less what she or whoever does. Madonna is always copying other people's work. yuck.' Well you guys are quite good at it yourself : 'Ooh La La' was a T-Rex ripp-off. 'Cologne Cerrone Houdini' could have been any Gainsbourg song on 'Histoire de Meldoy Nelson'. And those are just two examples. Alison Goldfrapp : 'We have a perfectly legitimate post-modern explanation for that. (laughs) Those songs are an Hommage! We steal like magpies but we pay tribute to our heroes at any chance we get, in interviews etc.. . Sounds like a GU explaination between stealing and paying homage!

Guest jamesshot Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 I have never had an issue with a singer I like insulting Madonna, probably because I am drawn to confident people. I like Madonna so I usually have an issue with someone dissing her. It doesn't make me hate them or dislike them. It can color my opinion of them a little, especially if they are someone I absolutely don't give a shit about to begin with, like this stupid cunt Allison. I just don't get it. Madonna seems to get a lot of shit- some really dismissive comments from her fellow artists. It seems to have gotten worse in the last few years. Espcially from people I wouldn't expect like this sad turd. I mean, who the fuck is she? I guess Madonna has to die to really get praised( and I mean true praise not backhanded compliments).

loomer Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 NME...really? Yes, really. And not just them, they were never a particular critical favourite that I'm aware of. But dear old ALISON (since she so HUMBLY named the band after herself) would LOVE to be liked by the Pitchfork and NME crowd. But her band were never pioneers at ANYTHING - lmfao @ her daring to call Madonna out on following trends and being derivative when that's all she ever did. She just did them 10 or 30 years after they'd already BEEN DONE - first with trip hop when that sound had long died out and she saw a gap in the market, then reviving the BEYOND TIRED Glitter band glam beat and doing an "I Feel Love" clone with all the soul and energy surgically removed, then finally some FOLK MUSIC and back to the 80s. She is a fraud and one big old recycle machine, never any better at it than Madonna was (the master) with AVERAGE anaemic music that is nothing to get worked up over whatsoever. In MY OPINION, of COURSE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loomer Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Sorry, but can you READ? Yes, I saw "LAUGHS" But she's STILL a PREPOSTEROUS CUNT for using that word as an explanation which was the POINT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadFan Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Yuck. Lucky guy, if Goldfrapp were American and 12:51 called her an American cow you wouldn't have called him out. With regard to Goldfrapp, even if she WAS being ironic she wasn't when she said M copied others' work. So basically she avoided the pressing point the interviewer raised too late, so a big lose-lose. Maybe next time she'll think ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Xanthium Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Like It Or Not has never sounded like Goldfrapp to me......at all. Me neither. I have no idea where that interviewer pulled that one out of. I love Goldfrapp's music, they're one of my favorite artists and I love the new album but Allison really needs to stop slagging off Madonna. Now Allison, for the most part, seems like a person with a brain. So why in the hell does she continually diss Madonna? Isn't she aware that it just puts a microscope to her seething jealousy? I really believe that Allison wishes she was as big and revolutionary as Madonna is. But she knows she doesn't have the persona or the balls for it. I think Allison is a great singer and makes amazing music but she needs to shut the fuck up about Madonna already. She's pretty clueless about how transparent her insults are.
