The Graveyard by the Sea - Elizabeth Fraser

Liz Fraser from Cocteau Twins reads an English Translation of Paul Valery's "Le Cimetière Marin". Background music is Lazy Calm. Liz's speaking voice is every bit as hypnotic as her singing voice...

Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous. And usually I hate poetry. Except the funny stuff.

Thanks for posting this, its fab.

I sat on a bus to Coventry in 1986 listening to a tape of this song at the wrong speed. (33rpm instead of 45rpm). Then I noticed the correct speed on the record.

How I laughed.

... the words sound so familiar. Sounds more like her lyrics.
