“We accept the Love we think we deserve” 🌺

1988, art school; my friend Claudette and I would have skip days. We would go to her house, listen to Cocteau Twins and Clan of Xymox and smoke a lot of clove cigarettes. I would watch her create beauty on a canvas. I truly miss her. Some of the happiest moments in my life.

I’m 51, I’ve been listening to Cocteau Twins since I was 19. Maybe I’m old, but today’s music is just not the same.

Everybody talk 'bout Frazer's voice, which is actually so genius, but we must not forget about Gutrie's guitar. First of all all the Cocteau Twins' songs are beautiful combination of amazing guitar and amazing voice. What kind of knowing each other must couple have to understand a musical idea of partner and realize it so perfectly? They both are genius. Only together

My 19-year old son's online friend from eastern Europe introduced him to Cocteau Twins about 6 months ago. He started playing them in the car while I was helping him learn to drive. At first, I thought it was kind of odd, definitely unique though. But, that's how music often resonates with me. It might take a little bit, but then it penetrates my heart, and...tears are welling up in my eyes as I type this listening to this haunting, beautiful, mesmerizing, unique, and wonderful song. The phrasing of the chord progressions, what she does with her voice at the beginning of that phrase during the verses...special. Amazing. I am very grateful for the digital communications that occurred across the globe to be offered eventually to my being, my realm, my heart. This is absolutely blissful and am SO glad this channel was created. Eager to hear the upcoming remastering of some of their albums later in 2024... Thank you. ❤❤

I remember my mother RIP playing this song on car rides. For the longest time I never knew who the group was and just recently found them again. How awesome...

Nearly 59yrs old and I'm still playing this....❤

1980's - A different time; a different world; inexpressable innocence and love captured in the best music as this; im so lucky i was a teenager and wish i could go back in time -2023

I don't care how old I am, who brought me here, on which funeral it played or how I met the sister of one of the bandmembers and therefore wanted to share my importance with you. I just think it's a nice song.

“And I thought someday I’d be at a party in college or something, and I’d look up and see this person across the room and from that moment I’d know everything was going to be okay.”

Elizabeth Fraser has one of those rare voices that will make you cry from how beautiful it is.

im a 41 yr old woman..i still feel 15....and the cocteau twins just help me to enjoy it more....beautiful beautiful music...x

When I first heard Cocteau Twins in 1984, I knew I had to hear them again and again, 40 yrs later, still listening! Kids, if you like this one, try Carolyn's Fingers!

This is an ethereal masterpiece that everyone should know, but sadly very few do.

You know how a single piece of music can take you to a single time and place? This one takes me to Blisworth, Northamptonshire, autumn 1984, driving home to Cornwall in my Dolomite 1850 listening to John Peel

Elizabeth Fraser's voice is so beautiful and angelic, one would mistake her for an angel. Ive always be impressed by their musical range - its all superb.! 🖖 🤓 👌

This is not a woman, this is an angel

Liz Fraser's voice is so unique. It's elegant, pure and vulnerable. But it's also incredibly powerful. There's so much yearning, frustration and freedom in her voice. Like someone who has been told how to live her whole life and finally has the chance to express herself freely.

Remember MTV Showed this at 3 AM. I was drunk. Only time I saw it 1984. Now 2018. 34 Years.. Sounds just as good.

Liz Fraser's voice leads us to the Heaven. It's not from this planet. She's got the talent to touch in the deep of my soul

I've just discovered this band and I can't help but feel like I missed out on something great.

The Bear Season 3 ❤

The Cocteau Twins were truly unique. Liz Frasier wove a web of intrigue with her vocalise. Brilliant!

Cocteau twins es magia pura , nada volverá a sonar como ellos son únicos.

One of Scotland's best ever bands.

I've never understood a single word of this song. Just love the sound of it :D

Her voice hangs in caverns in my mind like icy stalactites, yet always feel warmth with the comfort the music brings. That's my shitey attempt to try and express my appreciation for The Twins.

30 years later and im still transfixed...genius in action

What a song! Takes me back to '84 and my spikey hair and long herringbone coat, ahhh the memories!

Why do all of their songs feel so magical and otherworldly. ☺️ it’s so fantastic

This was the song that kicked in my individuality. I heard it once on John Peel in the back room, which was also my bedroom when I was about 15 / 16 - after that I listened to Kid Jensen & John Peel every night on the stereogram - then I found The Smiths & Everything But The Girl & Ivor Cutler. I never knew the name of this song, so I bought everything in Woolworths with 'Cocteau Twins' took them to my nanna & played them, looking for this song. I eventually found it. By that time, I had fallen in love with Elizabeth Frazer's voice. That was my teens - still listen, still an EBTG fan - 48 now, what a great time in my life finding the music that sticks. My taste now is very eclectic - God bless to my nanna who never moaned about me on the stereogram, - takes me back to the very day. I miss her, Thank you for posting this.

I'm 62. ...it wasn't the Beatles for me. Nope. It was this song. It was the Cocteau Twins. Nothing was ever the same.

Was at Stirling Castle and read the pearly dewdrops drop poem posted in Queen Anne's Garden on Monday and I really believe Scotland is magic

Perfect in every way: sonically, visually. My favourite Cocteau Twins song, and video.

Love Liz Fraser's voice, quality! 🤗

The first time I ever heard the Cocteau Twins was this song, while driving somewhere in Atlanta late at night - who knows where, or why - listening to Album 88 (WRAS). I was captivated, and I avidly collected everything they subsequently released. Their music provided the soundtrack to a big chunk of my life - a somewhat private experience, as I never met anyone even remotely into them as I was. I remember making mixtapes of my favorite tracks (along with songs by Dead Can Dance and Le Mystère des Voix Bulgares, for the full moody Goth experience) which I would listen to on my Sony Walkman as I wandered through nearby Piedmont Park on chilly, gray days, wrapped in my Marithé et François Girbaud black coat/cape thing, alone in my thoughts, trying to figure things out.

Brings back memories of the 1980's Underground/Alternative music scene. While most people were listening to mainstream top 40 music like Madonna, Michael Jackson, Bon Jovi we were a "small community" in every major city of Shoegazers, Goths, Punks, Alt Rockers, Electro-Industrial & New Wave Dance Club kids listening to unique music like Cocteau Twins, The Cure, The Smiths, Bauhaus, Skinny Puppy, Cabaret Voltaire, Jesus & Mary Chain, REM, Sonic Youth, Dead Kennedys, Husker Du, etc.

this song is everything

Always and forever, thank you to Great Britain and the British people whose creativity, since the 1960s, has given the rest of the World hundreds of unique bands such as the Cocteau Twins and music of unparalleled beauty, quirkiness and atmosphere. What would our lives have been without British bands? Thank you from Sicily.

I discovered Cocteau Twins through Perks of Being a Wallflower like most teens did back in 2014, I would listen to this song the moment I left my school building and on the bus ride home, it's odd that I have such a nostalgia for that moment and time but Cocteau Twins remain one of my favourite bands of all time

It happens every time... I click on one Cocteau Twins song and next thing I know it’s two hours later and I’m still listening to them... I could stay here forever. If there is a heaven, this sound must be what it feels like.

I've Been Fan of this Band my Whole Life. Just Lovely....

At the end of Netflix's miniseries, I instantly recognized this enchanting melody and bewitching voice that is of Cocteau Twins. Magical. Truly.

The Bear S3 brought me back, again, three years after Halston. Love it when tv shows' music people know their sh!t

My favorite song to listen to when the blizzards hit. This band got me through so many winters as a kid, because I was just not having the dark, wet miserable wintery thing *at*all*. This is my absolute fave one.

Her voice takes me to another dimension. I hear so many newer generation of singers try to unintentionally match her tone.

I get older and this music never does. I like that.

какие же они необыкновенные!!! мне 50, а я до сих пор в восторге от них.🌺🌺🌺

Bought this single back in 83 I think (had gr8 taste even back then).. this song is just epic, wonderful sound with Liz's iconic beautiful voice... Brilliant 👏👏

Halston introduced this magic into my life

I love the Cocteau Twins.. Elizabeth Fraser’s voice is majestic.. goosebumps..

When a song takes you back..nostalgia❤️

I had the privilege to see the Cocteau twins at the Wiltern Theater in Hollywood in the late 80s I can't remember if it was before or after heaven or Las Vegas

Was introduced to this via a John Peel tribute compilation. Reintroduced to it by The Bear. Gorgeously melancholic

hearing this just threw me back to being a second year student at Leeds University in 1985 and all the feelings I had then - good and bad 😊.

This was one of my favorite groups in high school in the late 80's. Nice to see they are still loved. Their music means different things to different people. Went to a Cocteau Twins concert forever ago. While they brought me to tears the girl next to me was belly dancing. I still have a few of their records but no record player.

First song I heard from them. I was hooked on their music going forward...

underrated band. so glad I can hear this

I love this song, whatever it is she is singing about!!!!!!!

She literally has what I think the voice of an angel has. I don’t know what she is saying, but it is beautiful

to all of us from the why bother generation. I'm pushing 50 now. I truly never imagined back then I could live this long. my childhood is so old now parts of it show up like they are new again. give a shout out if you know what I mean.

Timeless masterpiece. Like so many others a thing of beauty is a joy forever......generation x has much to look back on.

From the day I bought the CD singles and Milk and Kisses album/CD, I never saw the videos. Today I realized how many REAL words I was hearing in Rilkean Heart .

I worked in record stores in the 80s and I'm ashamed to say I'd never heard this song until Halston was on Netflix. Just beautiful ❤

Hmmm...one of those unique songs. Gives you multileveled sensation of strong, deep vibrations. So well done, it will carry ones soul and feelings up to the surface. I've heard it at the end of the movie 'Halston'...they couldn't choose better song.

Still remember in the 80's getting/buying their songs and being flooded with emotions and thinking this sounds like nothing on earth. Part of the soundtrack to my life. (Similar to yet so so different to Dead Can Dance, another female singer singing her own thing)

Cocteau Twins are brilliant

This is seriously one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.

Best band in the world to me rn. Heaven or Las Vegas and Milk and Kisses never get old. I can't even describe how this music makes me feel it's so good. This is what the angels in heaven sound like, if there is one. My dream is to sing with her

This songs takes me away into another dimension, enough said.

Since I heard this song 20 years ago, it struck me as a very sad one. It was the perfect choice for the Halston series at the end, quite a tearjerker.

I was 19. How I wish I could go back and start again.....

I am getting the vinyl sleeve of Pearly - Dewdrops' Drops signed. A classic record. C.P.

Thanks Halston

Mid-eighties, the golden age of Cocteau Twins. Songs like this seemed like they were not new creations, but discoveries of perfect, effortless things that had always existed. It boggles the mind just how much art Robin could squeeze out of the available engineering tools.

1985: awesome Song 2023: awesome Song 3085: awesome Song Song Without time.

I love them + Elizabeth's singing, my neighbours listened to their first three albums as I turned my hi fi to 11. I'm so glad that I was in my teens in the 80s and enjoyed their songs +saw them live once.

Oh, my goodness... I've not heard these since I was a teenager... in the 80's... my friend had older sisters that played their record..ALL THE TIME... shit, good music just drags you back to a time when you worry about ... nothing important... 😍

Heard this in the Halston series. It was very haunting for some reason. .Great song.

The music, the arrangement, the Voice. Quite unique. Beautiful.

Beautiful track, recently discovered this band and I love them so much!

I'm building a time machine and going back to the 80's...Anybody wanna come with me?

1984....ahh..seems so long ago. This friend of mine gave me a comp. she had been working on for a dance recital.......this song changed a lot for me....The Cocteau's have been with me forever more and more and more......thank you Tasha......you gave me a reason to believe in Magick and love......

Very excited to hear this in Season 3 of The Bear 😊

That sudden change in pitch in Liz's voice at .35 almost like a hiccup has always amazed me. They'll never be another Elizabeth Fraser...

Halston! Netflix fantastic music at the end🙏

Thank you Sam, Charlie and Patrick

Liz Fraser... pure magic... say no more

Ah, greatness. Those guitar tones and Liz Fraser's vocals! Many no doubt were brought here by "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" soundtrack. I'm fine with that. But us old-timers didn't need reminding that the Cocteau Twins had the magic.

Halston brought me here love this song now.

ALWAYS amazing

This song is sung with passion, timeless, and a visual delight.

Scottish Art 🎨 Visually and Music 🎶 Art like Nothing Else, Ageless.

I always loved Robin's candor. He admitted that he couldn't play guitar worth shite but with the fuzz pedals and effects it sounded like above with Simon's bass.

No one or thing brought me here. I first heard this master piece in 84. Another classic 80's hit from the UK.

This is an absolute masterpiece.

I'll remember FOREVER COCTEAU TWINS....A PART OF MY LIFE

Lizabeth voice will always melt my heart she sings with so much emotions!, Beautiful song 🥰👌🏻💓

First heard this on the old grey whistle test superb. Haunting song.

I love this song so much. All Cocteau Twins songs. This is a good one though.
