― cºzen (Cozen), Wednesday, 13 October 2004 19:30 (twenty-one years ago)

Is it even going to be released in the US? Ive seen bigger groups/more anticipated records never get released over here..

― still bevens (bscrubbins), Wednesday, 13 October 2004 19:43 (twenty-one years ago)

I don't understand cozen's cryptic cristina comment. Is he comparing the two in some way?

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 13 October 2004 19:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Does she really say "schlepping" on "Me Plus One"?!?!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Wednesday, 13 October 2004 19:51 (twenty-one years ago)

No. 6 in Norway. Geir probably bought 10 copies to feed his melody habit.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Wednesday, 13 October 2004 20:23 (twenty-one years ago)

What's No.6? 'Chewing Gum'?

― Alba (Alba), Wednesday, 13 October 2004 20:27 (twenty-one years ago)

Anniemal. Norwegian album chart!

― JoB (JoB), Wednesday, 13 October 2004 21:38 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah ronan i like the singles too (but not quite love, i think... but maybe if it hits me at the right time, on the dancefloor or something, that will change)

Last night I dreamt Annie was a fundamentalist Christian.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 14 October 2004 07:10 (twenty-one years ago)

Haha, anybody fancy gmailing me the singles? (Sorry N.!)

― Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Thursday, 14 October 2004 07:13 (twenty-one years ago)

she reminds me of a conservative cristina.

― cºzen (Cozen), Thursday, 14 October 2004 14:59 (twenty-one years ago)

A fundamentalist cristina, surely.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Thursday, 14 October 2004 15:12 (twenty-one years ago)

These are serious times. No place for Cristina and her clever irony.

― Alba (Alba), Thursday, 14 October 2004 15:54 (twenty-one years ago)

Barima, gmail is go (apologies for the delay).

― Affectian (Affectian), Thursday, 14 October 2004 18:17 (twenty-one years ago)

the irony of the beholder.

― cºzen (Cozen), Thursday, 14 October 2004 18:47 (twenty-one years ago)

Thx, Ian, will do later.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Thursday, 14 October 2004 19:22 (twenty-one years ago)

Gnomicozen.

I wish we still had the gmail list system. It could be filled with Annie, whom I like, I think. (I've never heard Chewing Gum though!)

― Gravel Puzzleworth (Gregory Henry), Thursday, 14 October 2004 19:38 (twenty-one years ago)

Could anyone gmail me Chewing gum. Thanx.

― jackthelad (daavid), Thursday, 14 October 2004 20:10 (twenty-one years ago)

so i saw the import in tower records today, they had quite a few copies. i think it's something like $23 dollars.

is it worth the price?

should i go back and get it?

― reo, Sunday, 24 October 2004 04:52 (twenty-one years ago)

yes

― Paul (scifisoul), Sunday, 24 October 2004 04:54 (twenty-one years ago)

yes once more

― Johnny Fever (johnny fever), Sunday, 24 October 2004 11:19 (twenty-one years ago)

23 dollars? Right, brief calculations reveal that to be less than I paid for it. Go there.

― William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Sunday, 24 October 2004 11:21 (twenty-one years ago)

Paul, does Tower carry it on vinyl/have the singles? The only person in NY i know who has it got it at Rebel Rebel...

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Sunday, 24 October 2004 14:32 (twenty-one years ago)

'this is D this is I this is F F I...' hook from Me+1 now officially my favourite thing of year, possibly ever

― Michael Philip Philip Philip Philip Philip Annoyman (Ferg), Sunday, 24 October 2004 16:15 (twenty-one years ago)

isn't it '*mrs* d mrs i mrs f f i ' etc? sounds like it.
'this is..' doesn't make any sense.

anyone with the official version have the lyrix book?
indeed, does it *have one*?

― piscesboy, Friday, 29 October 2004 11:10 (twenty-one years ago)

i wouldn't pay $23 for any CD, even tho Anniemal is probably my favourite album this year. isn't it cheaper o'er ye interweb?

― Freelance Hiveminder (blueski), Friday, 29 October 2004 11:19 (twenty-one years ago)

$23 = about £11.50; sounds a reasonable price to me.

hang on a minute, doesn't that lyrical schema spell "diffirent"?

― Marcello Carlin, Friday, 29 October 2004 11:21 (twenty-one years ago)

i didn't think it really was 2 dollars to the pound, how lovely

― Freelance Hiveminder (blueski), Friday, 29 October 2004 11:26 (twenty-one years ago)

I think it's was "difficult"

― sleep (sleep), Friday, 29 October 2004 11:29 (twenty-one years ago)

I can't type in the morning, you know.

― sleep (sleep), Friday, 29 October 2004 11:30 (twenty-one years ago)

three weeks pass...

we managed to get advance 12" copies of "Heartbeat" the next single of new pop princess on the block Annie (679). Written and produced by Royksopp this track is a pure pop bomb (a la Zoot Woman/Phoenix). The A side contains the fabulous original mix whilst the B side offers Roysopp's Mindre Tilgjenglige own alternative rework.Watch out for more forthcoming remixes including Alan Braxe and more...

― JoB (JoB), Monday, 22 November 2004 22:38 (twenty-one years ago)

Alan Braxe

― Ronan (Ronan), Monday, 22 November 2004 23:08 (twenty-one years ago)

You know I posted this mainly for you, Ronan... :-)

― JoB (JoB), Monday, 22 November 2004 23:19 (twenty-one years ago)

It's called 'Hearbeat' rather than 'My Heartbeat' again? I can't keep up.

Best single of the year anyway. Can't wait for the mixes.

― Alba (Alba), Monday, 22 November 2004 23:36 (twenty-one years ago)

Wowee!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Monday, 22 November 2004 23:51 (twenty-one years ago)

The singles are great, but is the album a necessary purchase?

― Maxwell von Bismarck (maxwell von bismarck), Tuesday, 23 November 2004 00:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Or rather, has this singles versions vs. possible album versions business been sorted out?

― Maxwell von Bismarck (maxwell von bismarck), Tuesday, 23 November 2004 00:59 (twenty-one years ago)

Isn't it supposed to be a 2005 single?

― djdee2005 (djdee2005), Tuesday, 23 November 2004 01:04 (twenty-one years ago)

Well the album is incredibly difficult to track down right now - it's either out of stock or like extortionately expensive wherever you look. Re-release date is apparently Feb 21 2005.

― The Lex (The Lex), Tuesday, 23 November 2004 01:17 (twenty-one years ago)

Not releasing it 7 days earlier seems to me a grievous mistake.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Tuesday, 23 November 2004 09:39 (twenty-one years ago)

wasn't this all part of the so-called soft-release .. i managed to grab a copy when it came out. and it has indeed become a major part of my routine.

'heartbeat' is a lovely track.

hope we get more funky dance moves in the video.

― mark e (mark e), Tuesday, 23 November 2004 09:48 (twenty-one years ago)

too minor bugbears i have with 'Heartbeat':

when she sings 'and have a drink there or two' - i'm not happy with that on a grammatical basis, it just sounds a bit awkward

the drums sound a bit duff

otherwise yes! single of the year

the news that Alan Braxe is doing a remix fills me with joy. for the last few weeks i have been thinking about how great it would be if the 'feel my hearbeat' line was just looped and looped over thudding disco shenanigans...i expect Braxe to do just this, altho maybe Lu Cont could do even better?

― Freelance Hiveminder (blueski), Tuesday, 23 November 2004 10:53 (twenty-one years ago)

Grammatical errors are cute when foreigners do them though!

― The Lex (The Lex), Tuesday, 23 November 2004 10:54 (twenty-one years ago)

'sshhhhhh, let's start der record!'

― Freelance Hiveminder (blueski), Tuesday, 23 November 2004 10:55 (twenty-one years ago)

it's like when Bjork says 'warmthest' on "Hidden Place"!

― The Lex (The Lex), Tuesday, 23 November 2004 10:56 (twenty-one years ago)

damn i thought she really did mean her warm vest

― Freelance Hiveminder (blueski), Tuesday, 23 November 2004 11:00 (twenty-one years ago)

"too minor bugbears"

grammatician heal thyself

― Marcello Carlin, Tuesday, 23 November 2004 11:03 (twenty-one years ago)

or was that a subtle implication that such bugbears are indeed "too minor" to warrant serious consideration?

― Marcello Carlin, Tuesday, 23 November 2004 11:04 (twenty-one years ago)

Any 'Heratbeat' remixes would probably just resemble 'The Terrace'/'Stand Back' and the mixes thereof.

― B.A.R.M.S. (Barima), Tuesday, 23 November 2004 11:10 (twenty-one years ago)

my grammatical errors are not as important as Annie's

why so cynical/pessimistic Barms?

― Freelance Hiveminder (blueski), Tuesday, 23 November 2004 11:15 (twenty-one years ago)
