Hmm, I dunno. Are you using a different browser than me, maybe? I have no problem seeing it in Firefox.



EDIT: maybe I'll take some screenshots anyway, just in case others have the same problem.

Trust me, I'm the last person to panic about anything.

It's working for me now. Huh.

On my browser, it's telling me that I've exceeded my preview limit or something.

Whatever.

It did that for me too, but when I refreshed the page it showed up. The most interesting part is that last bit with Simon's quote.

Yeah, now it's telling me the same thing since I'm trying to get the rest of the screenshots but it won't let me. I'll try again later after I clear my cookies.

Cocteau Twins are "oceanic rock" ??

I think that's pretty perfect, actually. Their sound is very wet and you can't get any wetter than the ocean.

So the song titles and Liz's lyrics are labial??? I didn't even realise that was a genuine word*









* Unlike the word 'bollocks', which sums up my opinion of that quote quite nicely!

I think CT sound oceanic, but not rock. But I assume whoever invented it thinks everything in music is rock. Come on!

I have to agree SNeg, and would point out the CT songs in 3/4 time as evidence.

Is that a euphemism?

Get thee to a dictionary, man! It's a word that is related to a lot of things you're probably pretty interested in, actually.

Quite agreed. "Rock" has become such a meaningless pop idiom cliche.

I...would point out the CT songs in 3/4 time as evidence.

You iz teh awesome.
