I don't believe Simon gets enough love in the comments. this dude went on to create one of the most successful labels for the genre and it's subsidiaries, honestly the guy is a genius.
The Cocteau Twins aren't so much a band, or even a type of music, as a place that one goes to. An amazing, otherworldly place full of heightened feelings and deep experience. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to put together this beautiful collection of extraordinary performance recordings. I appreciate you!
gdy słyszy pierwsze nuty a uśmiech i ciepło w duszy czujesz....co więcej dodać...to jest jak balsam na codzienne doznania , jak zamykasz oczy , widzisz siebie inaczej- troszkę lepszy, troszkę czystszy, troszkę prawdziwy....w tej muzyce nie ma zakłamania, nie ma pośpiechu, nie ma fałszu...ale jak się wsłuchasz widzisz siebie...tak to czuje...
I often imagine all the amazing music that might have been if they had of managed to stay together and keep writing together over the past two decades or so. It wasn’t meant to be, but just imagine...
@@JMG72ARG Based upon what has been hinted at in terms of personal issues/differences and the way the band dissolved at the end it is highly unlikely. Add to that some extensive “anxiety” on the part of Liz and well... A few artists have managed to coax her out of hiding for a few performances, but they have been few and far between. They were also offered millions to reform by one of the festivals a number of years back and declined. The fact that despite many bands of that era doing reunions and tours (slowdive, ride, etc.) and having a fair amount of interest/success they haven’t done it even though the response would likely be huge in comparison to what even these bands have experienced, so my guess is that ship has sailed. I hope they prove me wrong, but I think we will see Jesus Christ return before the twins.
I often long for a reunion as well but it would be like going to a 40 year high school reunion... feeling slightly familiar but too strongly disillusioned to feel comfortable. Unless you're Wire. Those guys are still a brilliant machine live.
I had the enormous pleasure of seeing them on numerous occasions. It is a shame that they never released an official live album. Live, they truly were a wonder to behold!
Saw them live at the Town & Country Club in 1986. There was a big fight in the audience and they had to stop playing till it calmed down. Very weird. Awesome gig though, Love's Easy Tears had just come out, and they played stuff back to Head Over Heels. Throwing Muses supported, too.
Ha! I have a bootleg of that show. I don't recall hearing any evidence of a brawl on it. I must have another listen. Imagine getting stroppy at a CT gig.😂
That was the first song I fell in love with. It was on Lonely Is An Eyesore (as you'll already know). I was all in from that point on. It's been an amazing journey. They literally became the soundtrack of my twenties. The vibes from Crushed were just unfathomable when I first heard it. How could anyone do something like that??? ♥ P.S. This is a pretty incredible live version
Muro de sonido, muro de sonido? Esto es un tsunami de sonido. Es increíble como empastan todo ese sonido con la voz de la cantante. Hablando de la voz, es un instrumento más, un chorro de voz, pero con el plus que dice cosas y eso es maravilloso! Tiene más efectos que todo los bancos de las guitarras. Claro, no es música para bailar pero te llega hasta los huesos!
Que maravilla, excelente compilación, gracias !!. Cocteau Twins tiene ese poder y magia de volver en el tiempo y siempre sonar tan originales, te sumergen en sus sonidos y te dan la esperanza de volver a suspirar. Amados por siempre 🎸💕
Fairplay, thanks very much for putting this compilation together, I never knew they performed anything live from Victorialand on any of their tours, Whales Tails sounds brilliant here, with Liz' improvisations and with the drum machine added it sounds like a missing link between Victorialand and Bluebell Knoll.
Fascinating! I've been listening to CT since the Carolyn's Fingers video was shown on VH1. Back when VH1 was adult contemporary in the late 80s. I have all their music on YT Music and just shuffle. One of my favorite tunes with Liz's voice is Lifeform by Future Sound of London. Space age music with extraterrestrial vocals. BTW, I have always been so surprised how Liz could reproduce most of her vocals live. I know for sure they take a ton of effort. Thanks for the compilation. Crazy how you made it almost seem like she's singing the song playing. Not always, of course, but not shabby at all. Thanks again!
What a bright, sharp and lovely set of recodings! Good job putting this all together. So many are of the poorest sound quality. This could easily be a legit live compilation from their label. I think it's the best I've heard to date. Thank you because it truly brings it all vividly to life. I'm there! ♥
Cocteau twins and Liz will always be the most ulterior voice sound band with their creativity and canalization of intimate enoctions that they made to fllew to the whole Universe
I've been a fan since the early 90s. They have such a unique sound unparalleled to anyone else, however, when i saw them live i didn't feel the same impact as on the albums. It wasn't the music, but the vocals that through me off. To me they're more of a studio band, and excellent at their craft.
inclined to think that Delores and the crannberries were influenced by them slightly. She even looked like elizabeth with similar mannerisms .... the celtic sisterhood...!
I’ve long believed CT ended because Liz was forced to battle against a monstrous wall of sound. She was doomed. You hear this right away. I saw them several times. She looked and sounded swamped.
Carolyn's Fingers para mim é uma das melhores músicas do Cocteau Twins. Sou de Porto Alegre (Brasil - fora Bozo!!!) e no meu canal tenho um clip que fiz para Cocteau Twins, Soda Stereo, Macbeth, This Moral Coil... Grande Canal e perfeito video desta inesquecível banda etérea. Cocteau Twins ruclips.net/video/MiPIKuHkn-I/видео.html Soda stereo ruclips.net/video/F1G-7Ky0Si8/видео.html
I saw them in 1988 in Saint Pete Florida, but they only played three songs. Then I saw them again in Ybor City at the Ritz in 1992-ish, before "Four Calendar Cafe". But, the sound was terrible. So, I did see them twice, but never got to really enjoy it.

Una joya , cocteau twins te devuelve la fe en la musica , gran compilación, un abrazo fraternal!!!!!
si, son únicos!
I don't believe Simon gets enough love in the comments. this dude went on to create one of the most successful labels for the genre and it's subsidiaries, honestly the guy is a genius.
Simon’s musicianship as well… His basslines are absolutely genius
Dude true and / b ut they're alll geniuses
I started crying on Pur
They are a band from Heaven
you must be talking about cocteau twins, not U2, the cocteaus are from another planet!
...or Las Vegas..
The Cocteau Twins aren't so much a band, or even a type of music, as a place that one goes to. An amazing, otherworldly place full of heightened feelings and deep experience.

"Pandora" - off the charts brilliant. The composition and Liz F. just inspired beyond belief.
agree
You are so right rhere! 💜
The most unique and beautiful band from this era.
It’s one of those grey Monday morning vibes when
the CT songs
are appreciated most

Está música es esencial en este mundo violento e irracional ♥️♥️♥️
exactamente, necesitamos la música que alegra el alma
Best vocalist ever recorded I believe.
I often imagine all the amazing music that might have been if they had of managed to stay together and keep writing together over the past two decades or so. It wasn’t meant to be, but just imagine...
they still can get back together, they are fairly young

you and everyone else's mommy wonders that every single day. luckily Robin is still pumping. RIP to Harold.
@@JMG72ARG Nah man, Fraser is a nutcase. She ruined the band, surprised it got as big as it did with her antics. Drugs hit her hard.
Cocteau Twins hasta el final de los tiempos
Es lo que mas escucho ultimamente
cóż dodać, cóż ująć....moja muzyka , moje życie :) zamykam oczy i widzę siebie tutaj...i to jest piękne...
I had the enormous pleasure of seeing them on numerous occasions. It is a shame that they never released an official live album. Live, they truly were a wonder to behold!
I saw them twice in the early 90's. Not overly impressed cuz they seemed to have stage fright. Still love the music so.
There were the BBC recordings. Not sure if still available, but if it is you've got to get it.
What was needed were a back up singer or two to handle the other vocal parts - just as other guitar players were added to cover all of Robin’s parts.
All these decades later, Liz's vocal on Pandora still brings me to tears ....
it is emotional for sure
Saw them live at the Town & Country Club in 1986. There was a big fight in the audience and they had to stop playing till it calmed down. Very weird. Awesome gig though, Love's Easy Tears had just come out, and they played stuff back to Head Over Heels. Throwing Muses supported, too.

i'm so Thankful that you exist in the world
I get chills listening to this.
totally!
yeah, every song, every time....
PANDORA... talk about a lovely song... wow, i wish i could be in a state of mind to make a tune like that. very amazing, and just absolutely stunning
out of this world
Just when I thought Aikea-Guinea couldn’t sound any more perfect. Thank you
agreed!
Thank you for putting this excellent collection together for us to see, hear and feel.
Amo 😍 Hoje é 1.4.23 estou no trampo curtindo esse som.
I ❤ CT FOREVER AND A DAY UNTIL ETERNITY ❤❤❤❤
I have never heard this recording of Iceblink Luck before (my favourite CT track) and I'm completely moved to tears. Absolutely phenomenal
I never thought i'd hear Crushed live!
That was the first song I fell in love with. It was on Lonely Is An Eyesore (as you'll already know). I was all in from that point on. It's been an amazing journey. They literally became the soundtrack of my twenties. The vibes from Crushed were just unfathomable when I first heard it. How could anyone do something like that??? ♥ P.S.

Perfeição Celestial é Cocteau Twins ♥♥ Banda Maravilhosa!!
Te eleva la vibración de tu alma
The Carolyn's Fingers version here (I think Paris 1994) is incredible. All incredible.
yes!
Best pop singer, ever, in my book!
Extraordinarios y únicos en su especie ..Cocteau Twins 🎸🌪️🎸🎶🌪️❤️

Mil GRACIAS POR COMPARTIR ESTA JOYA💎💎💎💎💎💎💎
Gracias por comentar
gracias por subir esto! mis dos temas preferidos de Cocteau (Pandora y My Love Paramour) están ahí! qué versiones!!
coincido, tremenda la guitarra de Robin en vivo
An amazing compilation, thank you.
this is phenomenal thankyou for posting!
Does she have to so abruptly say thank you so much?? Takes me out of my trance🙌🏻
Perhaps saying it took her out of hers? I honestly cannot imagine the space you must have to go in to so that you can sing like that.
A melhor banda!!!
si!
TE AMO COCTEAU TWINS
Superlative 👌 Also a Nice video !
Ufffffff qué hermosa recopilación. Gracias infinitas por estos registros tan bellos de tan hermosa y mística banda.
tu lo dijiste, mística!
Que buena compilacion!
Fellow overlaid milkdrop music video creator, I greet thee.

Thank you.
Próximo sábado 10 de junio de 2023, tributo a Cocteau Twins en Raspabar Castellón de la Plana, España.❤
Hola.como se llama la banda tributo amigo ?
Gracias
O amiga .
Excelente interpretación de Elizabeth Fraiser no habia escuchado estas versiones.
I've been a fan since the early 90s. They have such a unique sound unparalleled to anyone else, however, when i saw them live i didn't feel the same impact as on the albums. It wasn't the music, but the vocals that through me off. To me they're more of a studio band, and excellent at their craft.
Ahhh,bless you mate. 🙏❤
👍👍👍
Powerful sound
yes
But a weak voice unfortunately, anyway I love this band and their records so much...
Очень, очень, моя печень... Ай лав КТ соу вери мач!
I want to be there
Q buena ondaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! Gracias!!!
Thanks for posting this. Love the CT's! Great audio, synched video? ...not so much.
only first track synched, the rest, use your imagination!
Это чудесно, божественно, ммм
inclined to think that Delores and the crannberries were influenced by them slightly. She even looked like elizabeth with similar mannerisms .... the celtic sisterhood...!
The video of Carolyn's Fingers are from Jools Holland live, The vocals are from some other event.
🙂,despite the ads.
Love for Simon, here.
Great, nearly 45 mins to appreciate the natural beauty of Liz Frazer and I get all this graphics shit tryin to run off with my face.
SHE. GOOD GOD. SHE. Of Princess Scotia and the timeless therein.
❤❤❤
Muito bom 😊😃😊😊😃
WHOAAAA I'M FUCKIN TRIPPIN BRO!!!!!
it is like dream pop jimi hendrix
Pandora
I’ve long believed CT ended because Liz was forced to battle against a monstrous wall of sound. She was doomed. You hear this right away. I saw them several times. She looked and sounded swamped.
CT are THE blueprint and reverence for all Shoegaze and "Dreampop" bands! I never listened these stuff, from this era live before. Awesome!
Thanks!!!

Liz Fraser Tom Chaplin the two best vocalists any day. What a duet that would be
I saw them in 1988 in Saint Pete Florida, but they only played three songs. Then I saw them again in Ybor City at the Ritz in 1992-ish, before "Four Calendar Cafe". But, the sound was terrible. So, I did see them twice, but never got to really enjoy it.
Aquí no está Orange Appled!!! :(
viene en la segunda parte :)
Ethereal Dayrdreams...
yes
Thank you. Great music. Would have enjoyed the film more without the graphic effects.
sadly there is no film of this, image is just to provide some visuals to accompany the audio
Name for the Day is Lucien 💝💡💥
Unfortunately they never made a professional recording of heir shows. Their live albums would have been brilliant!
yes!
Who can sing alive better then studio.. the unic anwer possible: liz
totally!
👀👂👀👏👏👏
