My most played song in the 16 years I’ve had iTunes ... at last count played 1,749 times! Such a beautifully written and composed song that I never tire of.

If you like the layered orchestral synth sounds and haunting melody I think you would like the Moody Blues. Nights in White Satin is is a gorgeous song but only a small taste of the Moody Blues. Gypsy and Candle of Life are two of my favorites.

Absolutely! Very well said! Isn’t it funny how one can’t explain the magnificence of art? You can only experience it for yourself!

As big of a genre shift as this was for them, this is hands down my favorite Goldfrapp song. It really is the definition of beautiful.

Indeed. We'd had Black Cherry & Supernature before this album was released. It took me some time to adapt back then, but it's my all-time favourite album of theirs now. It was the song "Road To Somewhere" that first hooked me in. Seems like a lifetime ago now! If I had to pick a favourite song (which isn't really possible), it would be "Melancholy Sky".

It IS beautiful. I was a huge Goldfrapp fan up until this album... I just wasn't ready for it when it was released, and I stopped listening to them for years. Now I'm going back to listen to Seventh Tree and everything they've put out since. My favorite album used to be Supernature...but now, Seventh Tree has easily surpassed it. I'm annoyed at my past self for not being able to see how good this was at the time. On the other hand, I'm kinda glad. It's like I'm getting to discover Goldfrapp all over again, and it's awesome.

I discovered them back in '98 or so when Strict Machine was used in a GameBoy Color ad. I emailed Nintendo asking what the song was and got an answer the next day, downloaded the song, and from then on I was a fan not only of Goldfrapp, but the tech revolution.

Masterpiece IMHO this album is indeed. Not a lot of those to be found. This song has a chipper sound but is haunting. "all I wanted was you to take me out": methinks she is talking to the pills she took. that's a darkness that we all dread facing.

I gotta say, more than nearly any other song, this one always breaks my heart. It sounds like a normal sentimental love song, but listen to the lyrics and you learn its about someone who wakes up the next day after attempting an overdose suicide because of their broken heart.

That’s what the story is! Your 100% right! I started to observe that this song an the video reminded me of someone who is a victim of a kidnapping at a club on Friday night and their body was found in the middle of the forest… and she’s waking up confused and disoriented… but your interpretation makes much more sense!

I love Goldfrapp, she has such a huge vocal range in this song.

Their music is totally underrated and Alisons voice is by far one of the best around! Loving it

How GENIOUS thas is. The video, the rythm, the melody, the lyrics, everything. Should have been a worldwide smash hit! Goldfrapp has so much hidden gems to discover! It's timeless, it's unique, honey for the ears!

I bought Seventh Tree when I was really young, listened to it once and shelved it. Roughly one month ago KZread recommended that I listen to 'ride a white horse' and since then I have rediscovered my love for this band and this album in particular. Seventh Tree is a truly fantastic album and A&E is frankly beautiful. More of the same please Goldfrapp!

Seventh tree was my 1st real wake up to Goldfrapp, every song is stunning, then i discovered Black cherry, years apart, many many years later. As with sexy sultry Moloko

Still my favourite.

Goldfrapp is beautiful.

When the video to this song starts out, it builds up to a rather happy, rapture of pleasure... and then that moment, because you're listening to the lyrics, as well, your heart suddenly sinks, because this is about something heart-wrenching and bleak. What a beautiful video... Goldfrapp, you guyz never cease to amaze me with your art, man. Love! 3:)

Seventh tree goldfrapp is the best goldfrapp

Bliss, Goldfrapp have never disappointed, they make great music, emotive, melodic and with a touch of odd.

I have probably seen this video 1000 times... im over analyzing it like wayyyyyy toooo much. I love it, crafted with so much detail and love... just like the song.

Goldfrapp fan since their very first album but this is their best song on their best album. Magnificent

This is so relatable to me....a couple years back (shortly after lockdown began) I just thought FK it ...I'd had enough because I felt like my life was in ruins and my mental health in tatters ....so I just wolfed down sleeping tablets and thought "to hell with it" ...the next thing I knew it was a couple days later in A&E (only briefly conscious) and then next time I woke once again it was evening on the ward.....I'm not a weak person....not that attempting suicide makes you weak ....I just didn't try because of the COVID lockdown, alot of things had happened in my life that culminated in this ...making real music like this all the more emotional and powerful....goldfrapp is so hugely and terribly underrated ...I've been a fan since "black cherry" ,..bought the CD at 16🤗😊

Forrest creatures, Alison with her appearence and beautiful voice and at the end Will with a cup of tea...all of that makes this video so special :-)

How can this utter masterpiece have less than 1m views?!

This is how I actually felt coming out of A&e in 1968!

This makes me smile

So underrated. Still gets me years later...

Love her voice ❤️ and the Will Gregory is killer on the music production

A favorite from Seventh Tree and this version looks stunning compared to what was available before. I'm glad to see more of these restorations making their way onto You Tube. XX

This video makes me giggle and burst of joy. The dancing leafs bodies are just terrific. Such smooth transitions and seeing Will at the end is just the ticket. Love it xx

Great song and very much under rated and appreciated.

A beautiful and sad song about wanting companionship! I love her singing voice and the musical arrangements.

Alison Goldfrapp = 21st Century's Kate Bush

The video is the perfect complement to the song. Brilliantly made. Funny ironic surface over deep sadness and loneliness, and then a cup of tea at the end to make things better. Up there with Sledge Hammer, etc.

This song is bursting with so much love it almost makes me want to cry

best use of ghilly suit ever

The kettle whistling at the end made me happy.

A bright blue Saturday with Jack in the Green!

Go Gregory with the tea!! ha ha...

i have seen this woman live she is the most amazing performer i hope she carys on

Still remember coming down to my family computer to watch this video before going to high school...this and checking the updates on Smash Bros Brawl

Human nature....you're in a time of need and comfort....plain and simple....they do a wonderful job of portraying emotions through their music and video. Chill people. Accidents do happen, unfortunately, and to hear her voice is rather soothing for me knowing what I have been through (car accidents, etc.).

I fuckin love those Leafpeople.

Love it! At last someone has recorded a song about the place where I work!

Still one of my favourite music videos!

ANYTHING these people touch turns to gold. Period.

I remember 15 years ago, in my bedroom, hearing this gorgeous song and feeling a beautiful sense of newness and life. Now I am 30 years old, and in line with the lyrics thinking of one of my best friend’s who topped herself. The pagan-y style of the video was very her. Thank you for the good times Nina, I won’t forget you 🤍

I am in and e in a backless dress at the moment and so are my fellow patients and I I’m sharing this with them and it usually elicits a tear or two

I think it's about having a seizure on the floor and she thinking of him as the first person to call, but he doesn't answer. Yes I am also overwhelmed by the happy tone of this song but I think it makes it better!! Songs don't have to be straightforward, I think they have to hide something to make them mysterious and challenging.

Still loving this song after years and years of listening to it on my way to work. Makes my day automatically better.

What a clear voice! I wish I had known her from further back : )

I love this song so so much. Her voice is just wondrous in both ears

just an endlessly beautiful song. she is so brilliantly talented.

Favourite Goldfrapp Song LOVE IT!

I personally think that the choreography of this video is what makes it's charm. The fact that it isn't perfect, it isn't in perfect sync and almost clumsy is what makes it perfect. Especially in a world where image is everything, it must be tight and in formation... This throws the rulebook back at the perfect world.. Either that or it's shoddy because them leaf people can't see a bloody thing!

I love and respect how Goldfrapp continues to reinvent their sound, point of view, style, music, etc etc… to never conform to one type of genre or only do something that’s commercial or mainstream.

So glad I recently discovered Goldfrapp. Good music.

I love this album.

gets better each time I hear it

I love GoldFrapp!

Such a beautiful song. I remember the first time I heard it and it gave me shivers

Still listening in July 2024. Still brings all the feels. 🩶

Ho conosciuto i Goldfraf solo recentemente e devo dire che sono fantastici. Le melodie e i temi musicali mi hanno rapito.

Loved the song and now I love the video too. Very creative and strangely tender with that friendly dancing leaf monsters. This album is full of great songs. Love this kind of new direction in the sound of Goldfrapp.

I’d like to emerge from the leaves like that in my local woodland, scare the dog walkers innit 😂 great tune.
