the best chordgasm a girl could ever have!

[mmmender]

you have to admit that some of the absolute best chord changes EVER can be found in cocteau twins songs. agree or disagree? personally, i find the chord changes in both 'summerhead' and 'squeeze wax' to be near orgasmic!! also, is it safe to assume that these were played by guthrie or was raymonde at the axe? do you have any specific faves?

[zed]

.......oh, absolutly!!

i adore the the changes in squeeze wax and i wear your ring,...
christ,....so many. recently i've been struck by "phoebe". so sweet it just broke my heart.......

so it's not just me who gets completely floored by the chord changes in squeeze wax then?! glad to hear it. it truly is one of the most beautiful things i've ever heard.

i like the bit where the jangly guitars, if thats what u can call them kick in on frou frou foxes about half way thru, and i doubt any1 has a clue what im on about, and all of blue bell knoll and holv send me over the edge!

Lorelei was the same effect on me...after the show in San diego we hung out back by the stage door and Liz came out and did some signings and photos...there were only like 11 people or so.

Someone mentioned to her that there must be sooo many children conceived to CT 'cause it is such moving music. I chimed in and said it thought it orgasamic and angelic...she seem to like that. Another person told all of us about a friend who was dying of Aids in a hospital and had died to CT playing on a small boombox. God, that made all of us cry!

I don't know anything about musical structure but i do like the way all CT songs are done. Some are so dark and heavy and others are sublime. I think when I die, the one thing I will miss the most is music.

I just love it when towards the end of 'ray of light' the music stops (except a guitar) and she sings "zephyr in the sky at night I wonder, do my tears...'...oh, wait...what is this place again?

Rejoice!

The boards' favourite mad aunt is back!

B, this place missed you.

[E-Lo]

welcome back keith!

the chord changes in victorialand are most devastating

chord progressions in the thinner the air particularly spine-tingling . . . unearthly

The argeggio which opens and echoes through 'Flagstones' is a sublime mystery that raises my neck hair to this day.

[Phil Lawton]

G and A7, isn't it? I've never played it, but I'll try it tonight and let you know in the morning.

Unless Guthers is lurking and can save me a job.

did you mean arpeggio instead?

[simon alexander]

No I definitely meant argeggio - it's what I've always called it since I cut my first tooth.:D

[mmmender]

do you also play the harp?

[simon alexander]

no, but i do play the garp (when i'm not playing the fool, that is.)

[simon alexander]

actually, i love the harp and have often dreamed of liz performing a small and intimate secret gig, featuring new arrangements from victorialand (i reckon 'throughout the dark months' would work especially well) with a harpist on a bare stage.

call me a romantic fool, but if you don't dream, reality just keeps getting you down.

[mmmender]

if i didn't dream.....you wouldn't be attending cocteaufest!

[zed]

see! dream BIG!!


and never give up.:D

[mmmender]

[zed]

[mmmender]
