Maybe the horse is a reference to the next single - which if you havent already - go to website and listen to - "Ride a White Horse" is without doubt the best Goldfrapp song of their career. (even better than U.K Girls!).

Yes, it is fabulous.
Indeed it references Ride A White Horse and should be the next single - the horse should appear again.
Reminds me of Kylie's Giving You Up mixed with Venus Hum's Soul Sloshing.
Divine.

Another 'Agree' here. Ride A White Horse (alongside Number 1) is my pick of the album. It would make a smashing single three.
Just dripping in glam!

It also refers to the white horse that Bianca Jagger rode into Studio 54, the famous New York nightclub which was the home of decadent disco. It was the place people like Grace Jones, Andy Warhol and Liza Minnelli went to dance, be seen and take copious quantities of drugs.
More info is available in Amanda Lear's craptastic disco anthem The Fashion Pack.

Ride A White Horse has been added to the release schedule as single three. I love the verses to it but the chorus is such a let down.

The Frapp are amazing.
Saw them at the Manchester Academy last night - not very much talking (she didn't even introduce the band) but fabulous nonetheless. That woman has one strong voice (check out Utopia for proof)!

It's an amazing song, although I did cringe slightly with the "winnebago" lyric rhyme.

I like the winnebago line, though it makes no sense whatsoever.
Ride A White Horse is much better live, the intro/outro are a lot longer which leaves lots of time for busting a move.

'Cause I still doubt it. ...but not as good as 'Let's Get Physical' <would insert winky smiley, but I know they're disallowed> |

Spinme is exaggerating, because he is evil.
She was, however, miming Number 1. And Ooh La La. I'm totally at a loss as to why.

I've just listened to my live CD of the Leeds performance, and she's definitely singing live on both Ooh La La and Number 1. Unless she had pre-recorded vocals, there's no way she could have been miming.
