Stuck In Our Head: "Caravan Girl" - Goldfrapp


On a glorious day like today in Manchester, it is sublime to pair the warmth of the sun with Goldfrapp's sumptuous fourth effort, Seventh Tree. It may not be every Goldfrapp fan's favourite, but we fell in love with the subtle and effortless gorgeousness of it all. Their new album Head First, while absolutely fabulous in a completely different way, returns to their earlier synth glory which makes Seventh Tree an even tastier treat to savour.

"Caravan Girl"'s magic lies in its capability to instantly inspire utter bliss upon listening. You can picture yourself on a bicycle with a gingham-lined picnic basket on one handle, rolling down a country lane. It gives you, please forgive our borrowing of a favoured Harley Street slogan, an instant lift. Whip up some home-made lemonade, open the blinds, close your eyes, listen.
