This live performance is much better than the album version. I feel the darker and lighter feelings of both the voices and instruments really show here. I enjoyed this without a doubt.

It's only happened a handful of times, but sometimes when I listen to unfamiliar music I get overwhelmed with emotion and am brought to tears. I have no idea what's actually processing, because it doesn't feel sad, happy, or awesome, it just... feels. I think I get exhilarated by true art and absolute creativity and the rare times I hear it my brain just doesn't know how to process it all. Anyhoo, this is one of those times.

can you share another song or performance that made you feel the way this song did?

I am back here again after almost 10 years after I first discovered this unique track and unique artists.

I'm lucky I have chosen Earth! Thank you people!

I'm going to say just like I said before I feel like I'm holding my heart when I hear cocorosie

i never realized how much skill it must take her to sing this song until i just watched it live. see what she is doing with her mouth and jaw? i can appreciate that. how unique and enticing.

Bless them for making this song. It's so uniquely beautiful. The 2nd verse really hits me. Me and my siblings almost died from the carelessness of our parents. "We climbed the rocks in snow and rain" to get to where we are today. It has always been an uphill battle.. but how glorious our journey has proved to be. How triumphant.

Wonderful. The best thing I've heard the last decade.

Some days I can't bear to listen to CocoRosie, and on other days to me their music is the prettiest chaos I've heard.

I never get enough of this song

I personally think that the contrast of both voices are nice. It's kinda like having two different personalities in one song. I think with alot of songs you'll find you like certain parts more than others. The great thing about this song is if someone doesn't like one part, there's a higher chance they will like the other verses, since theyre both so different. Just throwin that out there! (: I absolutely love Cocorosie, by the way!

Cocorosie are absolutely one of the most talented artists to have hit the scene. Who else do you know has thought up concepts for songs as they have?

I love that organ/piano sound. Their keyboardist played everything perfectly. My favorite part of the song.

Not gonna lie, this was the first song I ever heard by this group (this performance) and I could not STAND her voice. but I was instantly hooked! I had to find more of their stuff. Gave it about two days of researching their music/interviews and next thing I knew I was obsessed. I come back to this LOVING this song and respecting their music. People honestly just have to give new things a chance, or else you could seriously be missing out. :)

brilliant, whimsical, creatively haunting. huge fan. love em.

Got chills everywhere on my body!!! I just love their mimics, love to WATCH them singing!

It was Cinco de Mayo Pillow case on his head No more breathing time An ambulance sped It sped round every corner Calling out his name Shot a rabbit from the back seat window Sat and watched in the summer corn row Ate icecream in a desert dream Got love in father seeing you Too hot inside to hot outside Lazy days when you said just go for a ride We'll sail on Spirit Lake, Me, my pappy, and his Lemonade Tim and tina were my parents' names They got engaged they were inflamed Seduced by the lie of butterflies How they shimmer, how they glimmer Those butterflies We seven kids, we almost died Nearly put to death But lightning strike Instead there was hot pink Flashes in the sky We climb the rocks in snowing rain In search of magic power To heal our mother's pain Shot a rabbit from the back seat window Sat and watched in the summer corn row Ate icecream in a desert dream Got love in father seeing you Too hot inside to hot outside Lazy days when you said just go for a ride We'll sail on Spirit Lake, Me, my pappy, and his Lemonade

Their voices are stunning. The beauty and grace that shines through the fog of amazing instrumental talent is truly unprecedented. Their voices, so unique, form such a powerful combination. Say what you will, but nothing can take away from the fact that they are talented in every way.

I so forgot about them. Glad I remembered

Sierra's voice is one of the most beautiful I've ever heard, and sounds even better live.

YOU can see each one of them aiming for excellence at every second... The artistry is stunning.

Always great to see painful experiences expressed as creativity, cheaper than therapy ! Art and music are GREAT for the soul - negativity is not.

CocoRosie is great! What an amazing performance!

their lyrics are related to their life experiences and if you watch interviews with them or read about them you'll find meaning in everything they do, from toy instruments to clothing to every word in the song. if some don't like it doesn't mean they are bad. they're bad just for those who won't be able to appreciate such art. i think they are real artists, genuine and genious

Still gold in 2024

That's the definition of creativity

Too brilliant! Loved them from the first time I heard them. Art plus!

Most of people are atraccted by the beatiful voice of Sierra.And her smile.Y prefer the sadness and deepnes of Bianca.She is real outsider,freak,under,accursed poet.Her lyrics are awesome.She touch mi soul

Stunning but lovingly simplistic performance.Already know and love them.Thanks guys.x

Instantly fell in...love...with the raw emotional vocals

Can't get enough of this sound and vision. Looking at how the sounds are made and the ladies sing is amazing. It comes from the soul and causes me chicken skin. Rhythm and piano sections are great, so thought through. A piece of art!!

When I listen to their music, it's like i'm in a whole other world. Amazing.

Even after all these years this sound still gives me chills!

I love these two and hope so much they are happy right now wherever they are.

Sirria definitely has amazing voice but, Bianca really makes cocorosie, cocorosie! Amazing preformence!

Loved music all my life...best most original In years...completely hooked..(61 year old fussy git)...cheers.

This band deserves much more praise and love from appreciative fans, rather than this unfortunate attention from ignorant fools. I'm appalled at some of these comments. Personal attacks are unnecessary and only shine light on your own self loathing. CocoRosie is inspiring and my ears are grateful for them. I could care less what they looks like.

they are on their game in this one. Flawless

Like a dream! Obrigado!

I love watching Bianca get into her toy noises towards the end when Sierra is singing.

again its marvelous !

thank you kexp !!!!

Wow. This has to be one of the weirdest groups I've seen. Not that they're bad, just the combination of vocal styles and...instruments is certainly unique. Thumbs up for creativity.

everyone bitching about the toy but the sample makes the song v sad
