discovered that it was actually by Goldfrapp today, so it's been
something of a day for revelations. Anyway, I'm now damnably interested
in hearing the rest of Goldfrapp's back catalogue. It will have to wait
because each of the few pennies I have must be spent on the current
book, but I'll be looking out for them in the future.
