There is no other female vocalist who can come anywhere close to Liz's vocal dexterity. She's one of a kind and I never tire of her or Cocteau Twins. I've been listening to them for over 30 years.
@@gigiartstudiowithartistvir3919 Thanks, I’d forgotten about the shortening. She seems to be wearing something like ‘royal Stewart’ tartan. Cud also be called ‘Lizztle’ from Liz and thistle.
It's as rare as rocking horse shit to get anything "new" from Cocteau Twins Archives...thanks to those for making this available, both audio and video on this are top notch.
Spacefreak Agreed. As much as I love Simon and all he brought to the Twins, the driving, melodic awesomeness of Will’s lines is unquestionable and I really would have loved to hear what his influence on the band’s sonic evolution would have been. I sometimes imagine what certain later songs might have been like with one of Will’s bass lines driving them...🤔
@@softlightsymphonyband you may easily switch your attention to Lowlife then. One of the most underrated bands where Heggie showed what he is capable of.
I only just discovered this video and it gave me the same chills down my spine as when I first heard it. 1980. I had read the album reviews, so off to the university bookshop and record store, headphones secured, and then this otherworldly magic begins to play...
Wow! What a treasure (no pun intented) - this must have been around the time I was lucky enough to see them live,at Liverpool University,and it´s such a joy too see such a stripped-down performance in contrast to the highly polished videos that came later (which I also love,don´t get me wrong!)
So I kept hearing the cover by Deftones and I kept thinking to myself about how much it didn't sound like a Deftones song, so I decided to look it up and I would've never guessed it was Cocteau twins but God I love it !!
I just know that I have always fancied Elizabeth Frazer strange, unusaual and perfect and always will be, I fell head over heels for her in the 80s when I too was a very young and she still looking good now, if there is a song I like best it would be From The Flagstones because everything the Cocteau Twins made is good listening and watching, I really love the video Pearly Dewdrops Drops made in a church.
Saw her live at the Barrowlands for the Heaven or Las Vegas tour, supported by Dolphin City, the night I was there was special, Liz's parents were in the rear of the audience as it was her birthday that day, she was so happy they were there and by god we felt it too. What a show!!
Great post,great sound and doesn't Liz look hot with long hair,just as I'm typing this,I just saw a comment below lamenting the same thoughts,hahaha,and good to see Will Heggie on the bass.
I saw them same year in Stockholm. Finished up Liz drink left on stage. It was vodka & Orange juice. Such an evening, still remember the Smoke, smell & mystic vibe… best band! Still is! God bless CT!

Agreed. Not one.
Who is the hell’s ‘Liz’?
@@josephyearwood1179 LIz is often short for Elizabeth
@@josephyearwood1179 Use your BRAIN. Even if I didn't know the band I would have guessed it is the female vocalist. Are you getting out enough?

Never in my life have I seen a singer open up their vocal chords the way Elizabeth Fraser does.
have you heard yma sumac?
Meet yoko ono
The bass is heavenly!

This is the greatest vid on TH-cam. I play this constantly and this live version is better than the single/album recording.
Great song. My favorite Cocteau Twins song.
same here. absolute banger
Her voice is truly one of a kind!
Phenomenal bassline...

Absolutely, out of this world. Top if the tops
That Richenbaker definitely bites dirty🖤
where is he now??
weird, I was there, it was a double gig with Siouxie, I remember Eliabeth's handpicking particularly
That must of been a spectacular concert. Two amazing women. It took me 26 years to see Lisa Gerrard Dcd in the states in concert.
wOw - What a gig it must have been :)
+Night Owl- DCD at the Opera House 4 years ago. The sound of the pa rig was a bit rough but a good performance nevertheless.
So cool.
You lucky fucker! ;)
Extraordinary. I wish I had been there!

Wow this brings back memories. I can almost smell the clove cigarettes!
Wow, amazing! I love this concert so much. If I could choose one concert to attend in all of history it would be this one.
Garlands is truly an essential album for the "goth" scene and sound. Kids today know nothing about
dat no lie
Oh yeah all those Liz Fraziers of the 80's. Kids these days don't know what they're missing. All they have is thousands of Ian Curtis's.
@@chaoswitch1974i’m 16 years old and i’ve been listening to cocteau twins for years!
@@riececoffel Yay! Either you have great parents or really good internet access and good taste in music ;)
Honestly as we get older, we no longer have to classify our music. I grew up punk/Goth/techno. Now I'm just me, and still love them all 🖤
So I kept hearing the cover by Deftones and I kept thinking to myself about how much it didn't sound like a Deftones song, so I decided to look it up and I would've never guessed it was Cocteau twins but God I love it !!

Incredible video with awesome quality.
Her voice is a beautiful gem ❤️🎶🎼
awesome i was 17. thank you.
Will heggie will never be forgot in this story
OMG, this is awesome !! Best band ever !
Saw her live at the Barrowlands for the Heaven or Las Vegas tour, supported by Dolphin City, the night I was there was special, Liz's parents were in the rear of the audience as it was her birthday that day, she was so happy they were there and by god we felt it too. What a show!!
Just set on repeat.... bliss 🖤
I was 16yrs old at this time and I had such a crush on Liz. What a performance ❤
Adoro! Deslumbrante voz!
Absolutely fucking wonderful! Take me back to dear old.............
A gem, a pearl. Over and over again!!
Love the intro edit, I didn't realise it was an edit until I read the description!
Tears burning already before the oneminute-mark. Heartsplintering in every aspect. Am I really 35 years further now ?
While i was watching this video,i started crying like a little baby becsuse i saw THE LIGHT OF PARADISE ! ! ! . . .
great !
She was already miles above everyone else. Astonishing performance.
Incredible stuff!

Having a spiritual moment here. First time listening to them and I'm obsessed.
This album is a masterpiece. Her voice from the heavens!
It's a song that grows on you.
Liz was unbelievably cute. Love the Garlands album
impressive.
A very talented foxy Liz, blows me completely away.
Garlands were recorded in just 7 days and became legend LP
oh my gosh thanks for this.
Look at Liz!
Love the guitar sounds
i could stay here for years
Divine ❤
Great upload - thanks: childhood restored...
They got a much better sound recorded here than on the studio album version...
Some bands are just much better live
This is sublime
I love it when her voice is shaking ...
Beautiful
Perfect tension; magnifique !
Désolé Gildas, je ne goûte pas outre mesure !

The devil bite's dirty, we wax and we wane
The devil bite's dirty, we wax and wane
Licking our wounds
The devil bite's dirty
Reckoning we'll taste
We wax and we wane
The devil bite's dirty, we wax and wane
Caring is a bury gin shot
The devil bite's dirty
Up to the wee wanes
Oh, we laugh in their faces
The devil bites dirty, we wax and wane...
Her voice so cute, the song so cute, the Cocteau Twins so cute, Elisabeth so cute, all of us in those years were so cute 😥
The only description I can think of for Cocteau Twins is that they are a mythological creature that made music.
amazing!

I have the audio of the gig, but this is the only footage/images from the show, which has only recently surfaced...
Telling me
''Wax and wane''
Let only shine
Remain
The most interesting post-punk album along with Juju and Closer
You can't rip this off no matter how hard You try.
nothing can top The Fall In terms of interestingness. but with Mark is more like "love it or leave it" situation.
@@akis723 I Guess it is, not the majority's choice but they won a spot up there.
Interesting to hear this n think of early cure n joy division n other fab acts of the times
Such a superb band ! Its too bad we cant see them live now
Why
@@robertlopez4904 they were disbanded
Right ?
@@atrisnop back in 90's they split up
found out about Cocteau Twins when I was teen ager and still love her know
I love what she does with her voice there, sounds like a bird chirping
This is worth the licence fee...oh wait a min. This is music gold to me
Great basslines... Congrats...
Jak spokojnie grają a taka niesamowita muzyka im wychodzi.
awesome
That God damned baseline tho 🤘
It’s like Joy Division and Siouxsie and the Banshees had a baby
A hymn!
omg!buck to 90' still teen..omg what a fucking song
Hell yeah .
❤❤❤❤❤
It is my number 1 cock2twin song.
Perfeito!
This is better than the recorded version of the song..This is more edgy,more post punk,more hard.
This and Alas dies laughing... GREAT!!!
Happy birthday Elizabeth Fraser
Elizabeth looks so lovely!
