I love how the song turns left @ 2:04 and becomes introspective (?) as if to prepare for something new; then it REALLY turns left @ 2:32 and becomes sort of a new song ( a huge Cocteau Twins fan speaking here!)
This album "Heaven or LasVegas" is one of the most "AMAZING" albums I have ever heard on this planet! ETERNAL gratitude for shum65 for being the ULTIMATE fan of this band and keeping their music alive so others can experience it.I bow down to you and kiss your feet in REVERENCE my friend.... Thank You...Thank You!!!
@777blueray I remenber back in 1990 listening this CD for hours and hours and hours.. going to sleep and waking up at midnight to listen it again !! It was pure magic !!!
If aliens land on earth and they communicate like in "close enc's of the 3rd kind, We should send Liz Fraser to sing and Kieran hebden to mix for them
@betoperdido sometimes I have to hear it over and over - it is so hypnotizing! the way she plays with the melody and the flowing sounds on the background...a true masterpiece!!!!
u know it's funny, this is one of my favs but, they did not do this one...90' or 91' Los Angeles, CA. The Wiltern Theatre, Heaven or Las Vegas Tour... And I was listening all night for it..!!...But they did open with Blue Bell Knoll..!!...Amazing!!
God, this song is exactly what I needed today. It's totally amazing all the way through, to be sure, but when that ending gets here, it really just takes the song over the top and gives me goosebumps. WOW
Cocteau Twins is very expensive for me they are great and kickin hearts,perfect band on Earth,and more peoples could be listen him and be happy from that,they are on our time,here and now.Stay Cool shum65.
You did it again Shum my 2nd favorite CT track and what do ya kno? U have presented another great masterpiece LOVE IT!!! This song is soo beautiful its not even funny I love Liza's voice in this also and one of tha best outros to a song EVER!!
This is the only Cocteau Twins song I know most of the lyrics to. Because it's my favorite, here are some parts: You don't feed between the sunset and sunrise You're damn well panicky I know the rainy days ? the run on the turf You could be raisin' money with your mama You might be showin up round dressed ? Take a toast to to that imbibe, you're alone Men are so fine He's got a beard he pleases me fine men are so useful he's a man
those hands of yours have created something unequivocally haunting here, by God! this takes me to places i would never have discovered otherwise, SHUM!
I remember seeing that when this album was produced she was pregnant and delivered the baby somewhere in the process of production. I really think you can hear the joy in her voice. She said it was during one of the happiest times of her life. (If my sieve of a memory is correct)
I think Heaven or Las Vegas has to be my favourite of all teh albums they ever put out. And, this is my favourite C.T. song ever.(If I HAD to choose just one.
I hope someone is enjoying his new camera! Very nice, especially all the shadowy scenes, the mirror shots, and your repeating signing scenes. Whose ring are you wearing here? It looks different than a larger, elongated one I recall in several other clips. Oh, is that a Peppermint Pig, or just a pottery one?
Hi bobbs,I wish I was enjoying my new camera! But alack,I cant get the videos from it, onto my computer!!but the still photos are fine, some of which Ive used in this vid. The ring in the vid was my late uncles,but the other larger one shown in other videos,dates back to 1250,AD. Its a silver Gauntlet ring, I bought it at an antiques center,I love old things!It still has 2 of the 3 gem stones- intact,which is good going when its 758yrs old Piglets pottery,but very cute!! Thanks bobbs!
I'm sure you'll get the camera in full transfer operation shortly. That Piglet is quite cute indeed! I've got a few neat pigs of my own, in my coin bank collection (all of which I've recently raided to be able to buy Christmas gifts!). Anyway, I'm impressed to learn the tale of that ring in your other vids. That's an amazing treasure - and to think it was crafted over 7-and-a-half centuries ago - so cool!
150AD - how amazing! I would think they'd be quite valuable even in bronze. Were they from a Roman site in Britannia, or elsewhere? Are you a Collector of such things?
My Piglets and other banks are fine, just a hell of lot lighter than a few weeks ago. They weren't the kind you have to smash to open. But, all they have left within is Canadian and Mexican coinage that got by me as I was emptying my pockets from time-to-time. I'll hold on to those in case the dollar plummets again!
That's about as old as I feel today, shum! Money that's actually worth something - what a concept - we had that here in the US, once upon a time. Anyway, hang on to all those artifacts. If things get out of hand in the Middle East, as so many religious fanatics are actually hoping for, those who survive may be back to bartering! Oh well, sorry to be so negative. Let's try to forget all that, and enjoy New Year's Day with the hope of PEACE in 2009.

Hi their bobbs,Yeah I,ve recently started to

are a pair of Celtic bronze ring money,known-

their value was in their weight,and they were
used for bartering.they date pre-600bc. not to sure how old that makes them though?
BC is before Christ! so pretty old !!
