HAPPY MONDAY SONG (ON A TUESDAY): GOLDFRAPP - ALIVE
I was off work, so today is my Monday. There. Goldfrapp sing a lot of pretty deep songs, but when they cut loose they produce some of the most joyous, happy sounds you can imagine. Alive was a single from their amazing 2010 album Head First, which drew heavily from 80s synth pop. Alive sounds like a perfect mashup of Billy Joel and Xanadu era Olivia Newton John. That is pretty much orgasmic for yours truly. Of course, being Goldfrapp, they had to put their own spin on the sound with a darker video. It's like Dracula meets Dancersize. Twisted!! Ha. Anyway, enjoy the wonderfully happy Alive and have a great Monday. [photo]
