Cocteau Twins - My Truth

[flaxlawna]

my truth is this old drum and, no, i've not had a dram yet

still i've got music from my giggle garden to listen to

and my, my, this is true!

[posypity]

that was neat how you got the sunlight crosses going. appreciated that.

good that they appeared through a 'door' and a 'rent curtain'. thats

my truth that.......oh, apart from the fact i think the openingglockenspeil

sound like the pixies hammering shoes out at the bottom of the garden

of course.

[shum65]

@posypity Its fun filming the sun through the bubbled-glassed front

door, it gives a brilliant water effect when you put the digital camera

close-up to the glass and move slowly, those pesky pixies are always

hammering arent they lol :)

[cmarcallen]

1 person accidently hit the dislike button.

[shum65]

@cmarcallen Haha, Im sure that was only for my video,

cant fault the music thats for sure :)

[TheDoveness]

WHY IS THIS ALBUM NOT ON ITUNES FOR FUCKS SAKE??!?!?

[shum65]

@TheDoveness Hi there, thats a good point why isn't it? I think their are some issues with

WMG and copyright stuff, which may be a factor, lets hope its sorted and soon... :)

[louis1990828]

@TheDoveness Are you living in America? It should be on itunes if you are, cause I was listening to this song on itunes last night.

[vulnerabile91]

Non potrà mai venire la fine del mondo perchè è già la voce di Liz che è la fine del mondo!!!

[shum65]

@vulnerabile91 Hi my friend,  sorry i dont understand what your saying, but its really

great hearing from you, I too love Lizs vocals, so magical and moving.....

[sissina73]

@shum65

he said: " the world will never end cause liz`s voice is the end of the world" if you say somenthing/someone is the end of the world in italian it means you think someone/somenthing is great... well in this case i totally agree with him :-)

[shum65]

@sissina73 Thanks for that my friend, I totally agree too,

That voice from Liz is heavenly indeed......!!!

[PositiveLastAction]

My favorite from this album. One can only pray for a reunion.. THX for posting!!

[shum65]

Great choice my friend...your so right, lets

all pray for a reunion someday.....!!!!

Great comments mate....

[bobbysevensevenseven]

Dreamy song and video, Dave. Super!

[shum65]

Many thanx young Bobby...I hadn't heard or

seen this for ages, awesome song...

Your super to fella....!!

[Ringside92]

I agree, I consider myself a huge CT fan. My love of CT started the first time I heard IVO the first song on Treasures and I've loved every album since and outside of Mussett and Drums and Sugarhiccup, I DON'T like anything before Treasures. (I know, that's a bold statement and many would disagree!) But ask yourself this, if you were stranded on a desert island, would you rather have every album before or after Treasures? = )

[shum65]

Hi Mate..God Id hate having to choose out

of so many classic albums....???

I think I,d want every album..he-he...!!

But Its good that everyone has their own

personal faves....Cocteau's Rule.....!!!!

Great comment mate, thanx for that.....

[Sandboge]

I never seem to stop wondering why "Four-Calendar Cafe" didn't get more attention than it did. Perhaps it was due to the somewhat more pop influenced tunes like "bluebeard" (which is a brill song and one of my favvs I must say) that caused that reaction. I remember talking to some real "hard core" twin fans when it came out and they called it a "sell out" among other things. Obviously I was the real hard core twin fan since I welcomed every album they did and never got disappointed.Great Album!

[shum65]

Hi mate..."Four-Calendar Cafe" definitely

should have been massive..your right...

Its filled with heaven sent music....

I guess you cant please everyone all the

time...and each album they progressed to

a different level...as it should be with such

a group of talented people...

I too always looked forward to each new album.....many thanx my friend.....!!!

[sightsound7]

I was just thinking about that... lol Wonder where that person is from? lolol

[shum65]

Hi sightsound7, Great hearing from ya..

I,m from the North West of England....

Hope your having a great Christmas and a Happy New Year to ya my friend......!!!!

[black69sun]

Amazing song-Pozdrowienia from Poland:)

[shum65]

Hi black69sun, your so right mate...!!!

This is such a moving song for sure...

Great hearing from you my friend...

Best Wishes from the UK, to Poland......!!!

[sightsound7]

Or is it by the wall that the Roman Empire built to protect themselves from attack from the Anglo-Saxons where my ancestors of the Dononnaclaid Vikings wiped them out and became the first settlement of the Scottish Clan Robertson? Wow long sentence...

Dononnaclaid - Duncan - Roberts - King Robert the Bruce - My ancestors, Clan Robertson.

[shum65]

Your ancestors were the Clan Robertson

thats cool..Scotlands to the North from me

Thats were the Cocteau's originated too,

except for Simon that is...

Awesome scenery in Scotland too...

[sightsound7]

Do you mean Great Britain that's the north western of Ireland where Dananagal is, the last population that speaks Gallic as their first language. A dying language, almost extinct, endangered language or seething, whatever... : P

[shum65]

No mate..I,m sort of between Liverpool +

Manchester,,,in the North West of UK...

My Dads from Wales, he speaks welsh.

and English...I just speak a lot of rubbish

most of the time...ha-ha..!!

[sightsound7]

I was raised in Las Angeles, Burbank and Studio City, California. I was a freckled red head with a tan. I used to serf every other day. After a few years of pealing, I did start to tan. Not much though. All the Hollywood studios and industry business office buildings. Used to skate the parking garages. My twin best friend's dad worked as lighting and wiring in NBC got to wander all Hollywood sets alone and anywhere. Sat in Johnny Carson's Chair.

[shum65]

Always wanted to go to California..love the

weather their..alas me and water dont mix

I never learned how to swim...

I used to burn in the sun,so I gave up with

trying to get a tan, tragic or what..??

Your best friends dad sounded cool mate

wondering round all those Hollywood sets

ha ha,,sitting in Mr Carson's chair too....

[sightsound7]

Do you know why all talk shows have a desk where they sit and cannot see anything on the other side? During commercial breaks, J Lenno or whatever is a bar tender and serves to the guests in those coffee mugs to help relax and take it easy, more social and relaxed.

[shum65]

Hi my friend..I like the sound of that......

making his guests feel more relaxed...

Mines a coffee with 3 sugars..ha-ha..!!

[shum65]

Cheers Mate..ha-ha.!!!

I know what you mean about finding good

music these days,but their is lots out their

[shum65]

Hi mate,,its a pity things cant always stay

heavenly and blissful all the time,right.!!

Cheers my friend...!!!

[shum65]

Hi my friend....thats one of the many gifts

[misteriobuffo]

Oh my goodness!, I was so much, deeply, truly in love when Four-Calendar Cafe showed up and this song made me run to my beloved one, every afternoon to wait for him and then go drive in our car through the mountains on a chilly October. Paradise.

[shum65]

Hi misteriobuffo....I love the picture you,ve

painted about the "Four-Calendar" album

a chilly October day.....thats so romantic,

[stonerhythms]

Thannk you for all your postings shum65....I truly apprecaite them and you have brought back so many memories...I am sad I seem to have lost all my albums of theirs...I use to have them all from Garlands on up. I will have to start looking for them. Hey you probably know them already but if you like the Cocteau Twins , I would be sure you would love Dead Can Dance.....check them out if you havn't. Lisa Gerrod also has the voice of an angel.

[shum65]

Your very welcome mate...i,m so sorry for taking so long to reply to all your fab and interesting comments... Its always brill- when you hear something that takes you back to a certain period in your life... Luckily I,ve still got all my albums ... they even look like new after all these years.(Coz I,m a bit fussy!!) well-a lot..!! Unfortunately Warner Group are busy with blocking my videos!! Yeah..Lisa is awesome..love her.!! Thanks again my friend..!! PS-keep searching!!

[stonerhythms]

I have heard this before....why do they do that?(the warner group)

[shum65]

Hi dear friend..WARNER are very cold-

emotionless money making machines!!

They havent a clue about music,ironically

Grabbing all these bands rights to their

own music..

As far as I,m concerned,its the band who

create the song/music,have the real say!

Not some computing money chain...!

[shum65]

Much appreciated martinekkes!!

me your very valued comments mate!!!
