Embraced Cocteau Twins many times during an intense dissertation campaign for my masters. Heaven or Las Vegas?! ALAFUCKINGBAMA of course!

I don't get that Eurovision remark at all- this has more of a Celtic folksong tone, melodically.

We all know what the title means, and we've all seen that widely-circulated guesstimate of the lyrics, which I think are on the right track in terms of the song being about Liz's incestuous past, Note that this is one of the relatively few CT songs that have never been performed live (I guess she felt able to sing "Theft..," just because it was striving for an "empowering" message - this is darker)

Uplifting almost hymn like melody. Just wish it didn't come to an abrupt ending but continued on into the ether........

and one of the best albums released in 1990

Truly beautiful - has a slight Eurovision tone that in no way detracts - in fact, it enhances the charm. One to play loud, and just throw yourself around the room.
