Hermosa

[shum65]

@TheDanirambo Hi there :-D

[USColdplayFan]

@1:28 I finally realized why I loved this song and it took me to a surreal etherial place. It has a part of the bassline that Dream Academy's Life in a Northern Town has and the songs take me to almost the same beautiful place. wow what a gorgeous track.

[shum65]

@USColdplayFan Hi there glad you enjoyed it my friend :)

gives me goose bumps big time, loved Dream Academy's

"Life In A Northern Town" to :))

[or words to that effect]

[shum65]

@flaxlawna Lol or words to that effect haha :)

[2012endofanerror]

@flaxlawna No disrespect intended - I am as ardent a fan of LF as anyone, but this type of 'word salad' is often times a symptom of schizophrenia.

[flaxlawna]

@2012endofanerror isn't it funny how those who say no disrespect

intended then always go on to be the most disrespectful of all. no.

i suffer from anorexia nervosa if you must be so rude to inquire. i

also suffer from having a funny bone. your's has clearly been removed.

i pray you are not religious in any way or you may have something

to answer for. happy armaggedon 2012.

[777blueray]

Elizabeth Fraser has the voice of the Divine Feminine perfected,absolutely stunning.I love the imagery for this video,well done my friend!!!

[shum65]

@777blueray It was such fun doing this video, glad you enjoyed it :))

its another amazing vocal, and as always the most perfect musical

accompaniment by the guys, many thanks my friend ;))) X

[madcap3]

Yes1

[shum65]

@madcap3 Cheers my friend, good to hear from you :)

[jiotencatl]

Ego lets him know that's how much more was gained



[shum65]

@jiotencatl Awesome song ain't it, glad you enjoyed it too my friend. :)

[jiotencatl]

@shum65 indeed



[shum65]

@jiotencatl Whoop,met ya on twitter this morning my friend, nice to hear from ya. :)

[EvaSylvestre]

@jiotencatl Weird! What I hear in the opening line goes with what you just heard:

"Wait and see who we call vain."

[jiotencatl]

@EvaSylvestre sometimes I hear that

[superorangeish]

It's love at first sound! Liz is the owner of my heart. She stole it and it is so wonderfully broken, as a result of merely hearing her.Is that what magic is? She cuts right through the physical and goes straight to the soul.I blow her 1,000,000,000 kisses. Thankyou for staying somewhat under the radar,and not as commercialized like so many artists.It must be wonderful to be Cocteau Twins,and listen back and say, "Wow,, we made that music?' You created beauty.

[shum65]

@superorangeish Well said my friend, love your comments......!!!!

[superorangeish]

@shum65 Shum ,I was wondering if you ever got the Cocteau Twins flyer I sent, via your e-mail? My music taste is huge and spans genres,but Cocteau Twins are special and their music touches me in ways other music does not.It "strikes a chord" with me. Thanks for getting back to me.SuperO

[shum65]

@superorangeish Hi there, I dont think I did get that flyer..?? your so right about the CTs being-

special, their music always touches the heart and soul, I hope your having a fab Sunday...

Talk real soon SuperO....!!!

[raidonist]

@superorangeish i saw them my first time in the eighties,in the 'town and country club' in london.wow! - it was great,since that time i love them.okay,don't listening them every day,but there are still in my heart,forever -- forshure !!! sorry my bad english,i'm from germany....but who cares,it's the great sound....that's makes me happy !

[phantomonye]

I love this fucking song!

[shum65]

@phantomonye Hi there,me too my friend......!!!

[superorangeish]

How many people who love opera actually know what is being sung? If you can't get past that aspect of Cocteau Twins music, you're missing the point. I need to hear this again while writing, unbeievable. Some of the only music I get a rush (chills)from ,every time I hear it , and over a 20 year span.There is no past or future, listen to Cocteau Twins, and live in the present! It's all a blink of the eye.

[shum65]

@superorangeish Thats so true my friend, I've never needed to know what Liz was actually singing,

its the actual feel and emotion of her vocals along with the music that always touches me....

Like what you say about theirs no past or future, but just the present listening to the Cocteau's...

Its all a blink of the eye..good one ... ha-ha..!!! good to hear from ya superorangeish..... :)

[shum65]

[starrbaby74]

The most beautiful Jargon ever!

[shum65]

@starrbaby74 It sure is my dear friend, love your cat too, so cute...ha-ha..!!

Have a fab weekend starry one..hugzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..xxx

[mattpanay]

beauuutiful song. 

[shum65]

@mattpanay Well said my friend...I totally agree with you...... :)))

[26526252]

when ilisten to this song i feel like i'm flying....so awesome, something like this exists.. it IS the voice of god!

[shum65]

@26526252 Well said my friend, I totally agree with you.....!!! :))

[spaceorbison]

I like it I just can't make out the words for anything

[shum65]

@spaceorbison ,ha-ha, dont worry my friend, not many people can..!!

Glad you enjoyed it spaceorbison, cool name..!!

[aaronquy1968]

@spaceorbison That's cuz there is no words to this song! It's Liz's style of singing it's called jibberish but very sensual jibberish just enjoy and all will be good I promise! :)

[starrbaby74]

@spaceorbison Don't feel bad, you're not alone! However, in many cases there is no point in trying to understand her. She focused on sounds and not words, but later became comfortable singing in English. However I still know of many people who couldn't even understand a word of Heaven Or Las Vegas, and that was entirely sang in English. Keep enjoying!

[shum65]

@starrbaby74 Well said my lovely starry babe,,,,  :)) xx

[RoofLight00]

Just beautiful, you can hear the universe in this song, expanding and contracting....

[shum65]

@RoofLight00 Cheers my friend...just love your comments.......

Have a fantastic Sunday RoofLight00......!!!

[vazmo14850]

shum listened to this last night during the remnants of NICOLE and we got flooded with rain...the twins with the rain created a surreal symphony...i was in Heaven...not las vegas

[shum65]

@vazmo14850 Blimey my friend, I hope you werent to badly effected,

I heard from other friends how bad the rain was with Nicole.....

I hope its passed bye now, I,m glad the Cocteaus were their for

you through such a rough time, sounds like you had an almost

magical even mystical experience, no wonder you were in heaven,

and not Las Vegas..ha-ha...mind you if it had rained much more,you

may have ended up in the Ocean...!!!

[dano555666]

I swear, the guitar riff from 1:45 is just fucking amazing.

[shum65]

@dano555666 Your right my friend, its a classic riff,. love it too....

Its a brilliant track, glad you enjoyed it dano.......!!!

[vazmo14850]

shum...you might have as many of the vynyl 12" CT as i!!!!

[shum65]

@vazmo14850 We should treasure these vinyls my friend,

I love the deep rich sound quality to them, memories indeed...

Cheers vazmo.....!!!

[wrender]

Anyone familiar with Terence Mckenna's singing machine elves, DMT trip stories? Well, I always imagine them sounding kind of like this :)

[shum65]

@wrender Cheers mate, never heard of Terences singing elves,

but if they sound like this, by gum they,re good..he-he...!!

[twins8956]

hi shum mate another great song and great video , some people always go on about the lyrics ,but me and you know its not about the lyrics , this is music from the soul ,and only some people like me amd you and a few others actually get it ,they should close their eyes and listen ,then they will understand it all the lyrics can be what you want them to be ,anyway thanks again shum mate for posting a truly wonderful song .

[shum65]

@twins8956 Hi Mate, great hearing from you, your so right about

feeling their music from your soul, both vocally and musically.

I never worry over the words, its just for the experience of listening

to their amazing world of sound...

Many thanks for your fab comments my friend.....!!!!

[NerdGogo]

1:30 - omg that's stunning. This song really speaks to my soul. It makes me feel so vulnerable. Behold - this is the TRUE power of songwriting.

[shum65]

@NerdGogo Hi their, glad you enjoyed the spinning eye scene..

This really does touch the soul, your so right, the Cocteaus have

the gift for always tugging at the heart and soul,

It is the true power of a good song my friend, its really great hearing

from you NerdGogo.......best wishes 2 ya.....!!!!

[NerdGogo]

@shum65 Hi, hehe it was the music at 1:30 that I thought was stunning lol.

But yes this is music at its best! :D

[shum65]

@NerdGogo Ha-ha..sorry about that, your so right what a classic

song, love the fullness of sound here in both the music-

and Lizs amazing vocals....cheers my friend.....!!!!

[ytcarol]

Everyone please stop guessing at stupid lyrics. Doesn't the song speak to you without having to have a "word" for every sound? It's so beautifully done that the feeling suffices.

[shum65]

@ytcarol Hi their, I totally agree with you, well said my friend....!!!!

[iandoyle69]

@ytcarol if your that bothered why right a comment about something not important ..

[ytcarol]

@iandoyle69 Because, just like you, I felt like it....

[EvaSylvestre]

@ytcarol

Actually, Liz encouraged people to examine what they heard, as though it were an audio ink-blot test. She was a bibliophile who had a phonetics fetish. She loved reading peoples' interpretations of the music.

[iandoyle69]

he loves you more than this, the stars let you know all's right and bright,

he loves you more than this, great lyrics that are perfect for this song .......

[shum65]

@iandoyle69 Hi their, great lyrics indeed my friend, this is such

an amazing song, I really loved doing a video to it,

many thanks for your comments ian.....!!!!

[ixis99]

the backing vocals in this sound just like THE LONG AND WINDING ROAD....always amazed me

[shum65]

@ixis99 Hi their, your so right, this is an amazing song, and those

backing vocals are awesome, I,m so pleased you enjoyed it my friend.....

[timothymorton303]

[shum65]

Cheers dear mtedora!!Its great hearing from ya

my friend!!

I,m very sad today,because of the blocking of

one of my earlier videos,and most watched vid,

Due to its sound track!

What a sad and selfish world some folk live in

And its one of my fave Cocteau tracks too!

Thanks again for your fabulous support mtedora

I very much appreciate it friend!!

[mtedora]

all artists go through sh- like that, brother...

[bobbysevensevenseven]

I'm feeling hypnotized, shum! What with your twirlin' eye & maybe some subliminal images, I'm feeling a mighty compulsion to put on my fuzzy faux fur slippers & head out the door humming, through the dark night streets, to an old cemetery that looks a bit like the one in your vid, in a neighborhood called Society Hill. Once there, I'll find a suitable Cross tombstone, where I'll place some oranges & apples. Surely, the Neighborhood Watch will then call the Police. It'll all be your fault!

[shum65]

I wouldn't go in your fuzzy faux fur slippers think of all that mud and dirt! Society Hill? that sounds like an expensive neighbourhood! Ah!you noticed thee EYE! took me ages to get that exact position,to take my own photo,and the sun was glaring in my face It made my EYE water bobbs! Went into the cemetery on saturday,and filmed those scenes,that cross was such a fined! With ya humming in those slippers and placing oranges/apples at a tombstone,you surely will be locked up bobbs!

[rikkyfaqurrass]

ah i remember this song,haven't hear it for a awhile

absolute magnificent work on this music video,you done it again ,i love it ★★★★★

[shum65]

Cheers rikky,as always fantastic comments!!

Hey rikky,someones complained about the sound

track "Blind Dumb Deaf" saying they own all

the copyrights,so its been with-held from all

viewings,so my video has been took off!!!

They give you a list of things to do,ie make

a complaint,or change the audio to keep your

video on YouTube?

What the best thing to do? have you had this

problem??

[rikkyfaqurrass]

bloody YouTube and who ever is doing this to your own video.You made the video with the song in it.I would understand if it was the original video,then i would accept their rights on Copyrights.

[rikkyfaqurrass]

So far you the only person that i known about this issue,i have seen original taken their audio out.but nothing like yours.And Whats the best thing to do? I would send then a letter saying fuck youtube and their bloody staff
