Here comes Goldfrapp with her new single called 'Caravan Girl'. I absolutely loved that last one which was a suprise as I generally don't like her very much. This one is not as good -its ok though -quite a straightforward pop song that will sound ok on daytime Radio 2. It sounds remarkably like Abba - just upbeat shiny pop.
Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
