My far far away love dedicated me this song this morning. He have said:

"Miss you so much.

And today I have another song..... close your eyes and listen to the sounds baby. Makes me think about me and you hugging and kissing and being happy simply by being one next to the other. Hope you are having a good day. xxxx"

...I feel lucky at last for having found true love. <3

[ChelseaHysteria]

I've loved the Cocteau Twins since I was ten! I'm glad they got some spotlight.

[Lovethepeacegirl98]

1:03 OMG!!! MY NAME'S ALIX!!!!!!!!! WOWSERS!!!

[Lovelylisette97]

Songs so sad and i love it!

[Peanutzormg]

Pictures like the one at 1:49 (and all the other pictures like it) combined with music like this make me want to cry- I always imagine being in my own world, where I can look up at the sky and see the galaxy, and see a planet so close that I could almost touch it, and listening to the ocean, walking on the sand... Instead of looking up at the sky with the sounds of cars and only kind of being able to see the stars without squinting... I can't stand it.

[Lovelylisette97]

@Peanutzormg So true imagine a world like that!

[OriStaTen]

thats a very cool commentary. Good !!!

[tak783]

@Peanutzormg Harmony with the world and the surrounding nature

[steelyman08]

@Peanutzormg

I couldn't have put it any better (-:

[kvidicas3]

@Peanutzormg Smoke some weed alone, and you will be amazed how real it all will seem :D I like to do it sometimes.

[ladyterrific]

Wowwwwwww...so so Beautiful ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

[santi22scr]

[Lauraaaa3510]

[cuddleb0t]

I love these pictures, they all match the song perfectly. Each of them have a very beautiful mystique about them.

[Ziru322]

My name is Alex and when shes says alice is sounds like Alex to me, soo creepy but serene.

[Ziru322]

I'm a dude and not gay and this song is beautiful.

[DanceDancing23]

It's like being in another world...

[eriyana12]

Dear God, I have been searching and searching for this song forever. <3

I love it!

[pyximaeveepic]

now that is a voice

[tortelli]

I thought this song was about liv tyler's virginity loss

[Penaelo]

Its strange how this song gives you such a soothing feeling but empty at the same time.

[kidd8k]

@Penaelo i like to call it "the cocteau twins effect" :D

[ammarlahori]

so true this is such a beautiful yet strange (this may not be the right word :) song

[SoberLilith]

the song is perfect for The Lovely Bones movie, but the lyrics make no sense at all, perfect tune though :D

[SarahtheWimpykid]

are these te real lyrics... because it sounds like a foreign language.

[Aloves0strong]

@SarahtheWimpykid if you listen closely the lyrics seem to be correct.

[BeecakeBagginsONOhp]

just saw "Stealing Beauty" and heard this song. it's so gorgeous and mysterious.

[HunnieeBuniee1]

sends shivers down my spine every time,

it's a perfect world. it feels cold and dark yet it finds beauty and mystery in that

[musicpro080998]

It Makes Me Really Think About My Life Somehow ?

[OneEyedJack1982]

so cold...

[Stellagrande80ever]

[nikkijaneallison]

@2kooltk lol some were just trying too hard.

[punkrockerbaby87]

i can see why this played on the lovely bones. it brings such a peregrination of enchantment, makes me feel like i live in a utopia :)

[AlecRozsa]

how did you do it? you make my very soul quiver...my very existence quake, my face drown in tears...

[OJOVECTOR]

Very beautiful...

[ItsmeReiRei]

heaven.....

[teamedward112ify]

when i first saw the movie the lovely bones and heard this song i couldn't belive it (:

[SummerSammy3]

okay so on a scale from 1 to 10, exactly how high do you think these ppl were when they sung this song?

jk its beautiful...but they were still high... O.o

[sibeliandrift]

@SummerSammy3 Well, no, they weren't high, they're just very talented.

[Yahn25]

[WayTooManyFriends]

I do not enjoy seeing pictures like this for they are all fake. I will never see these in real life. Get's me pissed off because it is so beautiful!

MUITO PERFEITO, ESSA MUSICA E MARAVILHOSA E AS IMAGENS FICARAM PERFEITAS

[xxChaibffxx]

great song just like the moevie 'the lovely bones'

[SuperBlackrat]

this is so beautiful :)

[oompaloompa8013]

@spookytina where did you get these images from? theyre so pretty :)

[mralexhagen]

She's singing with a technique called 'glossalia'. She's purposely not clearly enunciating the lyrics so that their impact is purely auditory and universally understandable rather than constrained within real words. I'm not saying the lyrics under attached to this video are necessarily wrong, I just think that the point is to sort of get out of it what one wants, more or less...

[mralexhagen]

@mralexhagen Sorry, I meant 'glossolalia' :P I was close...

[morbidmeloncollies]

@mralexhagen  I was going to say something along those lines and then saw this comment. Thank god you did it first because i would not have explained it this well

[moxymeeh]

@mralexhagen Thats way too much thinking, let the music take you away.

[27LPfan]

@mralexhagen i both like and undertsand your thought

[TheHektar]

nice melody but her pronunciation is horrible. Honestly when i haven't read the lyrics i wouldn't understand her

[Peppepoppldoppl]

@TheHektar lol idiot knows nothing about underground music or anything in the genres. That style of singing is called puirt a beul

[anitaforgeth]

SOOOO BEAUTY!!!

[themoviemonster12]

i love dis song its so beautful love it

[ChicDrummerChic]

Where did you get these photos? I already have some of these photos stored in my laptop. Good choice of photos. This is exactly where I'm taken when I listen to songs like this. aaaaahh!!! Thanks for this great video!

[shoshy20]

what is this language ?

[DaKurlz1]

@shoshy20 its english

[ChicDrummerChic]

Goood, these photos are beautiful. I love photos like these. They take me somewhere. Pictures like these+Music like this = Takes you somewhere BEAUTIFUL. I can't even explain how it feels. wooooh! 

[Sandyhendry]

@clarabells22. It's on Lullabies to Violaine twin CD, which is worth getting. I only knew their earlier stuff and discovered loads of gems including this.

[Khristian3500]

Wonderful!

[nicolanthon25]

12 people only like Justin Bieber songs.

[WeFoundAtlantis]

This is the greatest thing I've ever heard.

[mycandyissour]

@clarabells22 ikr lol.. :)

[TheTheHistorian]

@clarabells22 Pretty much I found it through the Lovely Bones too. Hey I listened to your piano piece on your channel. Very nice and you have some great talent!

[TheElissaA]

This is why people shouldn't need to take drugs, they have music.

[Moralvorstellung28]

@TheElissaA Jawohl Exactly!

[Vallybearable]

@TheElissaA exactly.

[rolihopeodeka]

Should This Be Heaven! All Is Beautiful, Thanks!

[AfroNatives4life]

I feel like i wanna go to heaven right now whenever i hear this song. Its sooo peaceful and comforting.

[loharynda]

related movie: Liv Tyler dancing on a Hole's song :|||||||

[hollydocherty13]

This song is so poweful and moving. It really gets you thinking about life after death.

[CSW1023]

The music from Final Fantasy couldn't compare. It goes without saying.

[InsanePandaz]

this instantly calmed me and relieved me of major apprehension.

thank you so much.

[TheTheHistorian]

Did this come from one of their albums? Or was it a single? It's beautiful!

[UpgraydeBeats]

Very....very powerful. 

[ScientificoPiano]

I don't hear when she says. I hear everything else though....

"(Pushing me) Oops she fell

(With you) Racin' her bike

(So you) Touching her lies

(Not me)"

[slurmisus]

oh..its so beautiful...great song!!!!

[ABH1212]

[ABH1212]

@Jayuumm lol really?

[osharemind]

This song can easily be put on repeat for hours on end.

[MarianaWeir]

I love music that relaxes and entrances me...this is so great!!! Went perfect in THE LOVELY BONES too.

[xXxRav3rRawrBabyxXx]

Simply one of the most stunningly beautiful sounds I've ever heard.

[Kagome11295]

[TheLovelyhunter]

[adaraquel]

I first heard it on The Lovely Bones and instantly fell in love with it. It's a song I hear almost every chance I get to fall asleep to.

Always manages to relax me. ♥

[jezkaz123]

@adaraquel she took something from me 27 years ago and replaced it with something better. she obviously still can.xxx

[AtinaBear]

This song is THE most amazing song iHave heard, It's so unhuman, It is sad because you think of your love ones and losing them in seconds. This song is truely one of the song you would cry when you heard the beautfil meandy, so peaceful but at the same time sad. and yes iM a Lovely Bones lover, i cry like five times when i saw the movie for the first move. One of the most sadest movies ever.

[Smallville357]

where did u find all these fantastic images???? ur amazing xxx

[MetrOsex888]

¡ Elizabeth ! : Gracias por Existir... (:

[lockypocky]

i remember back in 99 hearing this for the first time and my jaw dropped, brain studdered, and felt myself transcending unto some other plain of reality. alice by cocteau twins is very very nostalgic for me. reminds me of my first step into music that wasnt very popular and very below the radar. thumbs up!!

[2012endofanerror]

Goosebumps everywhere....

[TheElissaA]

So beautiful and eerie at the same time, if i listen to this and close my eyes I'm in another world <3 so pretty. thanks for uploading!!

[kiwiaka2]

[ExNausea]

Amazing...Heard this for the first time today, I have butterflies in my stomach.
