43 (for a couple more months 😁). Funny how they have that effect, for some reason I still don't really understand, this music has the exact same effect on me. Haven't listened to them for almost twenty years, a lot of hard things came crashing down and I became so hard, but my precious wife stuck by my side (the most beautiful soul I've ever encountered, on this side of the Mortal Coil, that is...but that's a long story: I'll say this, though, I don't "believe" in Heaven, I absolutely know it exists, nothing and no one can ever take that away now...went from having my spine crashed in a car accident and being paralyzed in one leg and unable to really use the other one broke my neck in 3 places, was told I'd NEVER walk again, and would soon lose bowel and bladder control...one day, after a particularly deep look into my own soul, I just began weeping so hard that I collapsed, I thought my heart had literally burst inside of me...I can't entirely explain what happened next, but out of a darkness I knew to be eternal and infinite, a fragrant, oily fire came pouring down on my soul, and I was met...I don't feel comfortable giving all the details, but I can say that the most BEAUTIFUL Woman I've ever encountered - beyond imagination, there are truly no words - looked into my eyes with the deepest love and kindest, deepest pity, and picked me up, continuing to gaze into my eyes. More radiant the Sun, Her face, and purer than Pure...I saw and heard so much more, but can't really share it, too personal, and really beyond words, but all the thrashed, beaten, cut, empty, and torn parts of my soul were filled with absolute light and love so solid and powerful that every hurt I ever had was erased, and I never wanted to leave Her arms...when I eventually "came back" to my body, not only could I walk again, but I went out to my backyard and did a backflip on my trampoline, something I hadn't done in over 25 years: you should have seen the look on my wife and childrens' faces!) In any event, I'll never be the same again, and listening to music like this reminds me of that haunting, lovely beauty, and draws tears out of my eyes once again (did I mention I couldn't stop crying - from the joy of having my body restored, but also the sadness of having to leave that Light and all the loving Souls there who love with One Heart, One Mind, and One Spirit?) This music is like medicine for weary souls...just wonderful.

For those asking about her lip movements not matching the sounds-as a professional musician I think I can answer this. Her angelic voice is treated with heavy effects: reverb being most obvious, maybe some delay and possibly a harmonizing effect. It’s partly why she sounds so otherworldly. And what can happen in the studio is, if the singer can hear these affects in their headphones, they sing to and enunciate according to how the sound comes back to them. So, lets take the phrase Las Vegas-Liz clearly isn’t enunciating the GAS part in the word, as the delay and reverb is still flowing from the previous phrase. So she’s leaving space for the effects to breathe. Make sense? It sounds like she’s singing something like “It must be heaven or Las Vegooooowowow’ and letting the last syllable and note be carried away in a wash of effects. It’s a very, very beautiful and compelling way to sing. She is a Celtic goddess.

A friend of mine gave me a K-7 record of Treasure back in 90...I listened the whole night like I just have found a secret precious stone! Couldnt wait to show my sister, who refused to listen to it ...but after she did, she got so hooked on Cocteau she couldn't listen to anything else for years...bought all their albums.. almost 30 years later, its still incredible to realize how Divine Cocteau is... conclusion: this music must come from Heaven and Liz Fraser must be an Angel!

When that third chorus comes in after the guitar solo it's just beautiful. The very slight change in the harmonised vocal just augments the effect. Those subtle harmonic changes are all over their stuff, adding power to the songs even towards their end. The only other band who did that subtle stuff were the beatles.

By the time this song was in fashion, my mom was waiting for me to be born. She have always been such a musical person; I like to think that maybe I used to listen this song inside my mother's womb and since then I'd like it so much. It realeses the deepest dreamy side of me. Cocteau Twins is my biggets musical find from 2020.

Ok I am losing my mind I thought she was singing in another language. I just googled lyrics and it is in fact, english words being sung. I'm officially obsessed with this song.

before the internet became a big thing, ive always wondered what she was singing about and almost thought really, that there was two vocalists. but found out it was just the one. Some of the words are in a different language and just muttering or something relatable to english. but yes, ive struggled for a long time to know what she was singing about until their website came into being. which in fact people had pieced together bits and pieces of what she was singing. But even then as Ms. Frazer has put it even she had made up words. but they are still beautiful to hear, even if she is not singling anything tangible at times. They continue to be one of my favorite bands.

I'm a 65 year old songwriter/musician. Only found out about them because of the Sundays. The Cocteau twin were a suggestion, " people the like the Sundays, also like..." I decided to listen to this random song, only because it was the first video offered of them. I'll be damned, I like the Sundays and I also like this. I guess they got this one right.

This is maybe the best production of the band (1990) , but you need to check the 80s albums and EPs (my favs CT), much more in the gothic-ethereal-post punk wave than this dreamy pop-shoegaze.

This was the song that sealed CT for me as a band. I had liked previous releases, but this one just hit. When it started playing on college/independent radio I couldn't get enough of it.

I'm a 30 year old guy who heard this song for the first time just a few months ago, but it is already very special to me. ***WAYY TOO LONG STORY TIME*** We went to Vegas for a bachelor party weekend for one of my best friends and had an amazing time (you can imagine). Me and one friend got an earlier 5:30 AM Sunday flight out of there to be cheap. We stayed up all night at the Cosmo having so much fun that we still managed to miss our flight (barely), so then we had to be in the airport until 1:30 PM for our new flight. We had just got to our new gate at 6 AM, almost no one else in our terminal. My friend lays down to take a nap on the ground next to our stuff, exhausted, and defeated. I'm just sitting nearby, unable to sleep. I'm drunk, high, and hungover all at the same time. I'm miserable but somehow very happy at the same time, mindlessly watching the sunrise outside the terminal window. At that moment, this song starts playing over the speakers (of course just because it has Las Vegas in the name), but my ears immediately perk up right when it starts with that verse groove. It was so quiet in there that I could hear the music super clearly, and I just thought the vibe was immaculate (and I was right). I held my phone up in the air to Shazam it, listened to it a few more times, eventually went to the bar for SEVERAL hours and then we flew home. Now, and for the rest of my life, this song will take me right back to those 5 minutes in the empty terminal, and then to that great weekend with my bros. ***TLDR=This song reminds me of a good weekend I had in Vegas once***

I love her voice and the music is so dreamy. I remember them from jr. high and high school back in the 80's. Now my 14 yr. old daughter is listening to them 40 years later. The Cocteau Twins have transcended time.
