Does anyone ever subconsciously start whistling Cocteau Twins tunes whilst going about their day to day business? Do you have a regular/favourite? I always start whistling Serpentskirt for some reason. I don't even particularly like it and I haven't listened to it for ages. Weird. :crazy:

Long ago when I was a milkman, whistling 'My Cock's On Fire' by Whitehouse would get me through the early morning round, fingers cheesy from the empty bottles.

This happens to me all the time. I find myself humming or singing or whistling "Summerhead," "Violaine" or "Tishbite." Random, I know, as those aren't, like, my favorite, favorite songs or anything (although I do worship "Summerhead"). I also find myself humming "Serpentskirt" from time to time. What is it about Milk & Kisses??? Weird.

Yes, this does happen to me. I find that usually, it's my LEAST favorite songs (e.g. stuff from Twinlights) Madonna haunts me as much as anything. Call it a minor curse. My subconscious mind is my enemy. :crazy:

For me, it's usually The Spangle Maker.

perhaps it's all those childish melodies, reminding listeners about nursery rhymes and childhood songs. forgive me but m&k is my least fave cocteau album and i do think a lot of the tracks are far too simplistic to stomach.
