I recently discovered this BBC live version from Glastonbury 2014 of Goldfrapp's Strict Machine which has a magnificence that is simultaneously triumphant and mystical. Starting, as many Goldfrapp's tunes from a certain era do, with a direct steal of its central riff, in this case from Chicory Tip's - Son of my Father. It transcends these cheap mock glam origins to be taken somewhere with much greater grandeur. I imagine this was, and still is, a bit of a showstopper. Wonderful electric indeed.
