Haha! That's a great interview! Thanks for passing that along - I hadn't seen it before.

i liked that one. under the radar seems to usually do a pretty decent job (i hadn't ever seen that one though!) robin's hair is so ace : D

great interview, thanks mmm.

i love it when Robin gets all chatty.

he seems very relaxed and open in this one.

the "CT/drug days" discussion was most enlightening.

i wonder what was meant by the "Liz doesn't talk to Simon" comment, though.

is there still some bad blood between those two?

so what gives there?

does someone (ie, Liz) need to forgive and forget?

Simon is such a sweetie pie.

but lately it is Robin who has become my sentimental favorite ex-CT bandmate.

probably because of interviews like this one......the man is just so earthy and unpretentious and real.

he makes me proud to be a fan.

very cool....thanks!

Nice one, thanks!

"If all the rest of the band members weren't so fucking mental we'd still be making records. "

well, that explains a lot...

thanks leesa

very interesting reading about robin's relationship with liz and lucy. i'd always wondered if she'd sing like her mum. maybe we'll get lucy's album before liz's

Thanks for sharing. One of the better interviews I've read with him as of late.

that is a great interview, never seen that one. funny boy sometimes, makes us all laugh and v down to earth. re his simon doesn't talk to liz quote. yes i sounded quite like there was some issue the way it came out, but ( well maybe i am naive and don't know something robin knows ...?) there is nothing funny at all remotely between me and liz. we haven't talked in a while no, but then we don't share a daughter and we aren't in a band together but i love liz, always will, just guess our lives don't seem to cross paths these days....and having said that we are planning to have some dinner together very soon, but who knows...?

[dynamine]

how f'n cool is that?

...good to see your words grace these forums again,Simon.

:)
hope all is well.

thanks for the clarification, Simon.

of course, this can only bring all Cocteau Twins fans a small dash of hope.....which i'm sure you'll well understand.

wish you could have been with us at the LA CTfest.

it was a night i'll always remember, preserving the spirit of the band's music with so much honor and celebration and community.

that's what i figured he meant by that statement.

it didnt sound ominous to me or anything. :)

i think he meant something different by the statement, something that simon's just not understanding.

[simon raymonde]

well why don't you put me out of my misery and tell me?

[helisa]

Great interview, it`s hard for me to understand everything, i gotta have a dictionary next to me. but finally i made it!!

Simon... it`s an honor that you share your opinions with all of us and viceversa.

;)

[helisa]

Can i go to the dinner?

A hint we missed?!?

...was that the moment they all decided to just maybe...?

Just having some fun ;)

[noboybands]
