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.

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.

Austin Blyth I have her range. (And a little more.) If I sing breathy, so without technique, I can imitate her flawlessly and I think any mezzo soprano could. I have been a fan for thirty years and I have always sounded like her in my natural voice. She has a very natural voice but she can do vibrato and her upper register is a little more polished. But she is not a walking stuntvoice like Toyah or Siouxie. The eighties were a very strange era....

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

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.

He was able to play almost any instrument, set in front of him; but, he programmed the drum-machine, compiled everything else, and also played the guitar. Yes, Robin played a major role also, but after he became involved with drugs and alcohol -- Simon did much of the work, that Includes becoming the intermediary between both Elizabeth and Robin.

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.

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. ❤❤

You will hear this in "old country music" from the United States, people who can yodel, and folk-music from around the planet. However, only Elizabeth Fraser does it, so exacting and consistently.

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.

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

The perks of being a music nerd brought me here! ;)

This is an absolute masterpiece.

Hearing this as the last song of Halston was an emotional out of body experience for me. I love this song, to hear it in a show that already had touched my heart and I cried till the end of the credits

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

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

Jesus. This song is a mountain.

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

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

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.

Here because that scene in Halston put me to tears

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

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 song is everything

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

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

There is more from the band to discover

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.

Halston brought me here love this song now.

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)

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

Just watched Halston on Netflix! It was great biopic of him. This song had me in tears at the end. #riphalston

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

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

ALWAYS amazing

I'm 38 and still making an effort to understand what makes great art great.

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

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.

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

Cocteau Twins are brilliant

My sister use to drive us to high school listening to this ...I was like 14 or 15 years old I didnt understand the song and hated this but as I got older I understand the lyrics and I love this song.❤❤❤

The CT with her voice is music on another level, in a different dimension that carries a spiritual deeper meaning that no other band has ever been able to do or ever go there.

Thanks Halston

Perks of being a wallflower bring me here 🥺

I guess I love that younger generations are being introduced to Cocteau Twins, but I can't help but to feel possessive. I bought these albums on the day of their release. But they're so wonderful. Cocteau Twins are so wonderful. Let us make them timeless. My favorite band deserves to live on in every generation's appreciation. But I was there FFS

I have also read about the siren calling her victims out. Interesting theory and enjoy reading Chris Knowles Siren saga. Still a beautiful voice.

Pearly dewdrops are falling down my cheeks today. I am taking my 14 year old cat to the vet and it might be the soft goodbye from there. A multitude of songs are flowing into my head at this time. I can't get Todd Rundgren ballads like "The Last Ride" out of my head. My brain processes grief by hearing certain songs in the mind, over and over. This is one of them. Nothing sums up the somber mood I am in today better than this song. It is so ethereal, empathetic, and at the same time, very soothing and sums up my morose feelings today.

There now she is not suffering any more. I put her to rest last Thursday, the day before Good Friday. Then she was buried in the garden which we no longer use, on Easter Sunday, yesterday. It was so perfect how God took my hand and led me through it. Even taking her soul to Heaven on a Holy Day. Her spirit is truly with the Angels now.

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