Cocteau Twins - Peppermint Pig (7 inch version)

[flaxlawna]

Piggy's like this when she won't share her aero. i say it's not just

full of air you know. then i make videos in my mind, though not

like 'the real thing' that you do. you're so skilled. is that my country house?

[shum65]

@flaxlawna Mmm mint Aero :) Lol your very kind, Im not skilled either,

just inspired by their music, I think that may well be your country house lol

[posypity]

frankfurter green money bank awaits revelatory abertoir? [or maybe

that's just me] both laughlines and peppermint have a russian sound

to me, or the russian sector of east berlin.

[shum65]

@posypity Their is a certain sound to both those songs I guess,

more so Laughlines I think, especially the beat. :)

[lotreamon01]

Thank You dear Friend for this new beautiful video! Don't give up! I'm sad and angry at the same time; how can those assholes from Warner be so cruel and stupid? I do hate them,empty people driven by greed only.

Don't give up my dear dear Friend,and stay here...

[shum65]

Hi mate!! thanks for your amazing support!!

I,m honoured to have such fantastic friends

here on YouTube!!

If my channel gets pulled,I,m not sure i,m-

going to return to YouTube though!

At the moment my hearts not in it!!

Best wishes dear friend!!

[grandehillusion]

Thank you for sharing and I always have a big pleasure to look your video.

[shum65]

Your very kind grandehillusion!!

I greatly appreciate your friendship indeed!

thanks for such lovely comments!!

Best wishes to you!!

[LunaSeaSane]

Because these videos are both a valid form of expression and a way to reintroduce Cocteau Twins to new generations...

I HEREBY PROTEST AGAINST THE "TIME WARNER" GROUP'S MESURES TO LIMIT CREATIVE EXPRESSION IN PEOPLE.

[shum65]

Thank-you so much dear friend for your amazing

support!!

It really means the world to me!!!!

Alas Warner is run by a cold icy,computer!

Biting of its nose,despite its own face!!

Thanks again dear Luna!!!

[desertshore]

great visualization of one of the Twins' most eerily evanescent songs... nice color fades, etc.

remember the weird record cover: that cherubic blonde head poking out of the misty waters...?

[shum65]

That was a fab record cover,Ive got it still

in fab condition too!!

I,m pleased you enjoyed the experience dear-

friend,it will soon all be over for me!!

Best wishes to ya!!

[bobbysevensevenseven]

Oh, how appropriate to see your little piggy again, in this wonderful vid, shum? He seems very content to close out the song!

AND, another great Liz vibrato tremelo trill thingy - a very classic one - at 1:08!!

[shum65]

Yeah I love that classic vibrato tremolo she

does,more so earlier-on in her career,nearly

at the end of every word at times,Ive got it

down to a fine art myself!!

Piglet loves all the attention,the swine!

[bobbysevensevenseven]

Shum, you need to keep Piglet in line! Don't let that child get a big head, and turn out to be a hugely troublesome adolescent star like the dreadful Britney Spears, or Paris Hilton, or so many young American sit-com Actors who grew up to shoot dope, rob stores, pose nude in sleazy mags, and sue their parents. Don't let all this attention and fame go to Piglet's head!

[bobbysevensevenseven]

Hey, you Long-Haired, Hippy Pinko Commie, when is that pic from, then?!? My hair was something like that, but very dark brown/black, until 4 years ago when I shaved it all off & locked myself in my apt. Meanwhile, it looks good on you! Now that I'm in my 40's, I don't know I have the patience to grow it out again, even though it grows like a weed, and I have to trim it weekly to keep a buzz-cut. But, I hate that awkward middle stage before it gets the right length, if I were to grow it out.

[shum65]

I think the pici was taken around 1988? I was

into Simply Red then! Now I too cut ye-olde hair very short every week,it used to drive me

mad having it long,I didn't cut it for over-

4 years,so it was quite long by then!

Did ya spot the other photo in their?

[bobbysevensevenseven]

I'm not finding the other pic, shum. Please give me the timepoint - I'm curious. I didn't cut my hair for years either. I'd pull it back for work, but they still found it unprofessional. My hair is very curly, and would easily knot up overnight, so I was always more Simply "DREAD"! It could be a real mess, and sometimes static-y, too. I'd find all things in it when I shampooed - remote controls, Moai statues, Amelia Earhart, the Lindbergh Baby. It's much easier to keep it shaved!

[shum65]

Your right bobbs,its much better short,I do my

own its easy to do!!and I given piglet a damn

good talking too! that swines getting to big

for its trotters.

[shum65]

Oh!try looking at around 1.30,black and white

pici of me way back in 1981, my Adam and the -

ants days! "Stand and Deliver!" cant remember

what I used for the white strip??

[bobbysevensevenseven]

That heavy beat & 3 cups of strong coffee, have me a wantin' to jump on my coffee table again & do a PharmaceuticalPhlamenco, shum! Oh, the IKEA table I once mentioned had to be trashed, as I ruined it (not by dancing on it) but in an attempt to paint it part turquoise/part orange, in freezing weather. The cold and the undercoat of paint reacted poorly. But, I successfully refinished a $10 2nd-hand table, and even with it's glass top, I think it could take my barefoot stomping to this song!

[shum65]

No bobbs! don't do it!!

Just don't take the risk, that glass could -give way at any given moment,and wallop!! you'll be spreadeagled on the floor!! "Ouch!"

[bobbysevensevenseven]

Well, I'm normal weight for my height, maybe a tad thin, 'cept for a bit of a beer belly (& I don't mean the highly-desired 6-pack abs, alas), so I think the thick safety glass atop the metal frame will hold me, & I wont smash through making a ghastly Cuisinart mess of myself. More likely is that I'll be light-headed from my various "Happy Pills", & will slip off and go flying through the TV screen, head first. But, if I survive that, I'll have an excuse to upgrade to a flat-screen HD set!

[bobbysevensevenseven]

All shout PRAISE to the good "Angels Above" for this music, and the mortal in Britain who brings it to us with his own visual interpretations! And while we're at it, let's hope all the dirty angels on Earth are sent back to hell, where they'll be met eventually by Bush Cheney, Rumsfeld, and perhaps one or two YouTube censors/auditors!

[shum65]

Thanks bobbs,but as you,ll know by now,yet-

another video has been deleted today!

I,m gonna move away from youtube,its had its

day now its being run by Warner!!

Its now a poor shadow of its former self!!

[rikkyfaqurrass]

this video its awesome,very impress on your work of music video,.love it shum.✮✮✮✯✯.You should record more stuff inside the cemetery,they have such good stones and beautiful statues of angels.

with all my respects for the people that are buried.

[shum65]

Thanks mate,I like filming around the cemetery

and churches,they're very beautiful for sure!

As you say,with no disrespect intended!!

Love your comments rikky,that's so kind of ya!

Hey rikky,just when I thought Id escaped yet

another vid going this Sunday,WOLLOP!! last-

few minuets,Warner has muted my video Yazoo- for the single "Only You" that's my third now

in as many weeks!! Funny how its every Sunday?

Is it a computer I wonder?

ITS TIME YOUTUBE TOLD THEM WERE TO GO!!!!

[rikkyfaqurrass]

hmm it could be a bloody youtube staff that works only on sundays,and keeping and eye on your videos and muted them.gosh this makes me pissed,how could they do this to your videos.their made by you.

[shum65]

Its the copyright owners using the ID MATCHED they're taking videos off everywhere, Theirs quite a few friends of mine,who have - had their channels pulled!! In my case,its the music they're against!! Still at least Ill be able to watch my videos if no one else can,If Warner don't want a free plug for one of their acts all over the world Then thats truly ODD!!!They've got a FREE!FREE Advertisement in me! Where's their business heads!!!
