Victorialand is something from another dimension ... and this track is my favourite. Do you have The Moon and The Melodies? A CT Harold Budd collaboration? And then there's The Pearl by Harold Budd and Brian Eno. Anyhow, thanks for this.

There is something ethereal and yet haunting about this tune. The push-pull dynamic of the vocals, the beautiful guitar work, and lack of percussion work to create a work much like a tree. It begins as something small and gentle in the ground then works it was to something majestic.

@JackTR21 Hi there my friend, great comments.!!! so agree with you,
The whole "Victorialand" album is an epic masterly journey of the soul,
really good to hear from you my friend..!!! :))
after enjoying Victorialand and all the other Cocteau Twins albums
I was really surprised to find out that all their albums hadn't gone to
number 1, in fact none of them. I'd just assumed they had. They were
all so marvelous. Its strange what you imagine when you are new.
I'd pictured In Our Angelhood as their first number 1 single and I thought
Song to the Siren, the Thinner the Air and Teardrop must have topped
the charts judging by often they were played on television as soundtracks.

@flaxlawna Me to, they were all no1s for me, guess the music industry
just wasnt ready for them, though they often topped the Indie charts,
A pure class act that changed the music world forever :))

Victorialand is an amazing album and if I was paid to listen to their music I would be a billionaire...and of course the Cocteau Twins and shum65 would get a big share of it just because they deserve it for being who they are!! I love it so much it's beyond what language can convey and I stand in awe at the glory I can see.Listening to this band always brings out the highest thoughts in me.
