Sometimes there are no words, or at least not words you can understand.
Sometimes there is just mystery.
Sometimes it is time for the Cocteau Twins, hardly any recognizable lyrics but such a beautiful voice from Elizabeth Fraser and the guitars of Robin Guthrie. The music is soothing, disquieting and consuming.
With almost no percussion Victorialand kind of floats along and your brain goes with it.
It’s actually the perfect panacea for the last two weeks in the USA.

Well said – I could listen to her voice all day, never feeling any need to attempt lyric comprehension!
I own almost no Cocteau Twins but Dead Can Dance fulfil a similar niche for me.
So where to begin with dead can dance?
Try Spleen & Ideal, it was the first I heard and it knocked my socks off.
Seconded!
A name I always hear but haven’t gotten to yet. Thanks!
