CD Reviews
The bonus DVD is not enough to buy the album again.

"I have the first deluxe edition of Seventh Tree and I'm not sure to buy this new edition. If this new edition would have included the B-side It's Not Over or some remixes, I would buy it without any doubt.
Also, the packaging is not as good as the Deluxe Edition."
Lyrics, please...

"While I think this is a fantastic product, I have to berate all the people who are quoting it's lyrics - incorrectly!! Clowns starts off with "Only clowns would play with those balloons/what d'ya wanna look like Barbie for?" clearly an indictment of plastic surgery. And the little bird chorus is "July, ly, ly" not do you lie lie lie! The orignial deluxe edition has a hand written lyric booklet with drawings, both by Alison herself. It is difficult to decipher what she is singing, but don't post lyrics if you don't know them! Additionally, this is not a departure in sound for them, but more of a return to their inital sound from the first album "Felt Montain." Goldfrapp are more complex than simply an electro-clash dance band...And as for releasing 2 deluxe versions, both with separate additional content, I am so tired of record companies doing this in a staggered fashion - why not release all versions at the same time and let us decide? Or simply do one deluxe version with all extra content..."
Excelent (again!!!)

"Alison did it again.
After an incredible "de luxe" package for "Supernature", she achieved the same for "Seventh Tree" !
The cd comes with a 40 minutes DVD with incredible content: Goldfrapp playing live + video + tv appearences. Excelent purchase !"
A must for fans

"This a must for fans. The DVD alone is worth getting. It has all the released video's from the album and additional concert and TV footage that is entertaining in itself"
