5.0 out of 5 stars Indeed Numero Uno, December 12, 2005

With the stellar first single Ooh La La from Supernature, Goldfrapp returns with #1 and what a deserving title it is.

#1 is a frisky, 80's inspired track with a digitized soundscape that sparkles in all the right places. Moving on with a semi-pulsating beat draped in Alison Goldfrapp's incredibly sensual vocal. The Alan Brake remix of the track doesn't change the song all that much but does extend the #1 goodness over it's 3 1/2 minutes, definitely something you'd wish after listening to the short album version. Listen out for the naughty lyrics in the song too.

Beautiful, a Japanese bonus track, is a synth-pop track like it could have been anything from Black Cherry. All Night operator, a B-side on Ooh La La, is a slow, trippy track that screams beautiful luscious.

And the last audio track is a dub mix of Ooh La La by Tieschwartz which turns the retro-electro track into a monster club anthem.

Finallym the perfect treat to end it all, the very funky video of Number 1 where Goldfrapp gyrates withher brood of doggie pals in an operation theater with ultimate sass and candour, making her look like a pussy cat.

Dear US fans, so be patient with the expanded and altered release or Supernature come Mar 7. It'd be worth the wait given this preview!

5.0 out of 5 stars This is going to be the BEST Goldfrapp album yet..., December 4, 2005

Obviously, this is just a sample of Supernatural which is already out in the UK and will be released in the US in March.

This EP is short and SWEET. 'Number 1' is the perfect way to start this record and in case you were confused, Goldfrapp makes better music than anything Gwen Stefani on creative steroids could ever dream of making (Although I really like 'What you waiting for?, but most of that album was truly MISERABLE) The rest of this EP is like a shot of bliss to the brain. Although the first remix of 'Number 1' isn't exactly all that remixed, there are definitely no weak tracks here in the slightest.

But my most favoritest (it's that good) track on the whole EP.....Ooh La La (Tiefshwarz mix) This track is AMAZING. I just can't get enough of it. Definately buy this...so you can wish you lived in the UK so you could pick this full lenght album up TODAY!!

Get it for this song alone. This is a U.S. release for the forthcoming release of Supernature next March 2006. Very excited, yes. Until then nibble on this little gem and dance around. Ooh La La...
