So Alison, during some interview in 2004 you said, "I hated the 80s. I celebrated when they were over". And now ‘Rocket’ and ‘Believer’ have this 80s sound done in a modern way. You and Will even mentioned 80s artists as your inspiration for the album. I know that the things can change in five years, but can you say more about this contradiction?
艾莉森，在一些你在2004年接受采访时说：“我讨厌80。我在他们庆祝了。”现在'火箭'和'信徒'有这种声音在80年代以现代的方式进行。你甚至会提到你的专辑八十年代艺术家的灵感。我知道的东西可以在5年里改变，但你能谈谈这个矛盾的？
Alison: Well, I think quite often Will and I have said we've hated things and then we go and do them. (Guffaws) It's kind of like when you're at school and you say you hate the boy in the back row and you end up going out with him. So yeah, I see it a bit like that. Sometimes the things you hate are also the things you love, really. Secretly. But I did generally speaking, I have to say, hate the 80s: the fashion, the politics, generally the 80s were really pretty awful. But - and I think especially compared to England - I do think there were much better and more exciting things that came out of America in the 80s. I think music that came out of America in the 80s was much better. Apart from The Specials and New Order. So I think I was maybe specifically talking about England in the 80s when I originally said that.  
When you say you enjoyed the music that came out of America, do you mean their mainstream music, or their alternative music?
Alison: There was some fantastic electro and stuff like that coming out of America in the early 80s. Stuff like electronic music and then also things like Prince... And 'Jump', of course. (Laughs)
Will: Talking Heads - that was early 80s.
Alison: I think there were some really great songwriters, all that stuff was really good. Really imaginative and exciting stuff - mainstream and more leftfield, much more than in England or in Europe.
It's interesting that the 80s seem to have been in a constant state of revival since the mid-1990s.  
Will: None of them are going away! The 60s, the 70s, the 80s, they're not going away. You know, when I think of the 90s it's surprisingly amorphous compared to the 80's.   Even though the 80s was horrible it had a strength to it that you can't ignore.
Alison: It's true, and the 90s was a sort of backlash to that. Suddenly loads of blokes in black t-shirts taking themselves incredibly seriously. Nowadays, though, you can dress up in ridiculous clothes and make great music and be taken seriously.  
A：嗯，我常常想，我会说我们已经厌烦的事情，然后我们去做他们。 （狂笑），这有点像当你在学校，你说你恨在后排的男孩，你最终要与他进行实物。所以是的，我认为这有点像。有时，你讨厌的东西也是你喜欢的东西，真的。秘密。但我确实一般来说，我不得不说，讨厌80：时尚，政治，通常是80真的很可怕的。但是 - 我想尤其是与英国相比 - 我觉得有更好，更跑到美国在80年代令人兴奋的事情。我觉得音乐，来到美国在80年代好多了。除了特价商品和新秩序。因此，我认为我可能特别的讨论中，对英国80年代，当我最初说的。
当你说你喜欢的音乐，来到美国时，你的意思，在主流音乐，或他们的另类音乐？
艾莉森：有电和一些精彩的东西这样的到来，美国在80年代初。如电子音乐的东西，然后还要王子的东西...和'转到'，当然。 （笑）
W：Talking Heads的 - 这是80年代初。
A：我认为有一些真正伟大的作曲家，所有的东西非常好。真正富有想象力和令人兴奋的东西 - 的主流，更leftfield，比在英国还是在欧洲更多。
有趣的是，80年代似乎在复苏惶惶不可终日自90年代中期。
请问：他们都不是要走！六十年代，七十年代，八十年代，他们不会离开。你知道，当我90年代认为这是令人惊讶的无定形相比，80年代。尽管80年代是它有一个可怕的力量，您能不能忽视。
A：这是真的，和90年代是一个反弹排序这一点。突然负荷的小伙子在黑色T恤衫到自己令人难以置信的重视。如今，虽然，你可以打扮成可笑的衣服，让伟大的音乐和认真对待。
大概就是在解释为什么当初说不喜欢坐80年代风格的音乐现在却做起来的原因。


Schmaltzy charity singles are very much the rage at the moment. If you had to choose a song from ‘Head First’ to be covered as such a single, which would it be?
感伤的慈善单曲是十分愤怒的时刻。如果你选择'一首歌头第一'作为这样一个单一的，这将是受惠？
(Both guffaw) Will: ‘Voicething’? No.
Alison: (After a lot of thought) ‘I Wanna Life’. (Starts giggling) That'd be quite funny.
Will: ‘Head First’ has that kind of singalong chorus, doesn't it?
Alison: Fu**ing hell, that's a really horrible idea.
（这两个狂笑）W：'Voicething'？不。
A：（经过再三斟酌的）'我想要的生活'。 （开始咯咯地笑）那想是相当有趣的。
W：'头第一'都有那么上口合唱一种，不是吗？
A：他**地狱，这真是一个可怕的想法
大概意思就是什么什么。。我也搞不清楚了..

大概就是说明唱片公司没有给他们压力去出一张流行专辑。他们只是做想要做的音乐。
很多东西 百度不让发。。


If you had to compare your new album to a breed of dog and/or a type of sausage, what breed and/or type would you choose?
如果你要比较你的新专辑到品种的狗和/或香肠类型，什么品种和/或输入你想选谁？
Alison: Oh Lord. (Flounders) I do like a sausage though. Hmm. (In deep thought)
Will: Is Joe Trueman from Meat magazine? I like a Cumberland sausage. It's quite traditional, but it's quite... Herby.
A：主啊。 （比目鱼）我喜欢做香肠，但。嗯。 （在深思）
W：从肉杂志是乔楚门？我喜欢坎伯兰香肠。这是相当传统的，但它很...赫比。
这是哪门子问题和翻译=，= 婊姐问的吗？


Do you feel every album needs a theme or would you release just a collection of different styled songs?
你觉得每个专辑都需要一个主题，还是会释放不同风格的歌曲只是一个集合？
（这个翻译得好，很明了）
Alison: I think naturally when you start writing, you're trying to find a palette of sounds that reflect the mood and the ideas that you have or how you're feeling, so I think just naturally it tends to make its own world and theme, which is exactly why sometimes you'll write something which is good but it doesn't sort of fit with the world or the story you're trying to tell.
艾莉森：我认为当您启动自然写作，你试图找到一种声音调色板反映的思想情绪和你已经或你的感觉如何，所以我觉得刚才自然也容易使自己的世界，主题，正因为如此，有时你会写的东西是好的，但它并不适合性排序与世界的故事，或您要知道。
大致意思是顺其自然，不必刻意。


Is the new album suitable for water aerobics?
是新专辑是否合适水上增氧健身操？
Alison: Definitely!
Will: Oh yeah. Any type of aerobics.
A：当然！
W：哦，是的。任何类型的有氧运动。

Assuming that you won’t die what would you do for the rest of your life?
假设你不会死你余生怎样度过？
Alison: For the rest of my life, I would like to make music. And I would like to have a cleaning company in Spain. I think I've decided that I'd like to have my own white van and buy cleaning equipment, work til lunchtime, nosing in people's houses, cleaning floors that don't have carpets, then kick off at lunchtime and then spend the rest of the afternoon just mucking about with sounds.
艾莉森：对于我的余生，我想制作音乐。我想在西班牙一家清洁公司。我想我已经决定，我想有我自己的白色面包车和购买清洁设备，TIL的工作午餐，在居民住宅去噪，清洁地板在没有地毯，然后启动午餐时间关闭，然后用其余在下午刚刚起重机有关的声音
=。=


楼上需要进一步翻译 mark。

There seems to be some confusion as to whether the (ahem) penis on the new album cover is intentional or not. If you could get Alison and Will to clear it up it would be much appreciated.
人们似乎有些混乱，是否（啊哈）新专辑封面X茎是有意还是无意。如果你能得到艾莉森和威尔把它清除掉，将是大加赞赏。
Alison: The penis?! What fu**ing penis?! (After some explanation as to general vicinity of supposed penis) There's a penis IN THE CLOUDS?
This seems to be something of a hot potato among fans.  
Will: This is the pot smoking contingent, presumably. I think it kind of says more about them than it says about us. Rod? Was it from Rod? Well, there you go then.  
Alison: Rod's obsessed with cock.  
Will: Sorry, Rod.
艾莉森：X茎？！哪门子X茎？！ （在有些所谓X茎的一般附近的解释）有在云端X茎？
这似乎是一个烫手的山芋粉丝之间的事。
W：这是锅吸烟队伍，大概。我认为这种说，对它们的了解比对我们说。罗德？从杆呢？嗯，你去了。
A：罗德的痴迷X茎。
W：对不起，罗德。
一位叫罗德ROD的歌迷指出专辑封面有类似X茎的物体，实为云。。。GOLDFRAPP2人说ROD已经被X茎迷住了。。
我看不出来=，=

这个很有意思啊。。

I was cycling along this morning listening to ‘Rocket’, and thinking about how Goldfrapp are probably the best band in Britain. I was then wondering if they’d ever got any recognition in music awards ceremonies for their brilliance? I can’t ever remember seeing them at the Brits? It seems to me that this could be due to the fact that the ‘male’ music industry has a stale and dated concept of what a band is, so it celebrates dross like The Kooks etc, because of its obsession with a band being a group of ‘real musicians’, usually boys, rather than celebrating the unique aesthetic techno boffin wizardry displayed by the likes of Alison & Will. I was thinking that if Alison had been considered a female solo artist (which you could argue she is in the live sense) she would have walked home with oodles of trophies by now, and I wondered what she might think about this?
我是今天上午骑自行车沿听'火箭'，以及如何Goldfrapp很可能是英国最佳乐队的想法。当时我想如果他们见过他们的才华得到任何音乐颁奖典礼的承认？我不记得看到过的英国人呢？在我看来，这可能是由于事实，即'男性'音乐产业有什么乐队是陈旧和过时的观念，因此庆祝像The Kooks的渣等，由于其迷恋的是一组乐队的'真正的音乐家'，通常是男孩，而不是庆祝独特的审美techno博芬魔力由艾莉森和会喜欢的显示。我想，如果艾莉森一直被视为女歌手（你可以说她是在生活的意义上），她会走回家与奖杯苦苦现在，我想知道她可能会认为这一点？
Alison: Yes, I do think that's probably true. We're not easily categorised because we're not really a traditional band as such. There are many elements of that - so Will doesn't tour when we go out and play, for example, and I'm not really a ‘solo artist’ and yet quite often I'm probably perceived as one, I'm in photographs on my own or I'm asked to do things on my own. So I think we're not easily categorised and we're not really a dance act either, although sometimes we’re seen as one. I think that was obvious for ‘Supernature’, when we were nominated for various awards, and they didn't really know whether to put us in the Dance category. And they don't know where to put us in the record shops either, which doesn't help. But I think we probably haven't been up for many awards simply because people don't like us that much. (Laughing) But I agree that when people are thinking about awards we don't really make it easy for them.
Artists will often say 'it doesn't matter about awards' but do you ever look at awards shortlists and think, 'oh for fu**'s sake, we had an album out this year and it was quite good'?
Alison: (Laughing) Yeah, I think we've done some really great albums and it'd be quite nice if we got a pat on the back and a 'well done', but at the same time I think they're all bollocks as well.  
Yes, it's a fine line between not being not nominated, and...
Will: Being slightly relieved. (Laughs)
Alison: Yeah, I remember when we were up for the Mercury Music Prize and we went to the night out, and I found the whole thing quite excruciating sitting there and the record company all sit round the table going (whispering) 'yes, yes!!!'. It's a bit like when you're at school and you're up for the egg and spoon race or something. I don't know, you feel like there's some sort of pressure on you and you've failed if you don't get it and... I feel like they're a bit...
