Fashion could be more relevant. It needs to be understood rather than just consumed.

What got me was the speaking in the front, that 'intro-ed' the song. It sounded a lot like the narrator in BioShock. Very interesting creation here.
The Honeydrips - Fall From a Height
The narration in the song, again is mysterious and alluring all the same. Much less needs to be said of the ethereal soundscape, almost psychedelic and otherworldly. Fantastic. Just realised where the narration comes from - sample quotes from Annie Hall (starring Woody Allen and Diane Keaton) and Rebel Without a Cause (starring James Dean). At only 2:35, I wish it were half a minute longer.
Sebastien Tellier - La Ritournelle
Loosely translated as 'the jingle', don't be surprised at the extended "intro", which has the sole purpose of setting the mood for the song. Four entire minutes dedicated to pure craft, with which he ensures you absorb everything, ready to embrace the latter half of the song. And he doesn't let down, with simple lyrics about love, it complements the keyboard wonderfully. However, the 48 seconds or so of one chorus seems to pass by so fleetingly, as the song dwindles to an embracing warmth.

I have to concur. First thing I was thinking, female solo version of The Polyamorous Affair? She's awesome!
