| R7-12 (Abbotsford, BC) | Posted: Sep 16, 2011 - 01:23 Wow, that female vocalist from the Cocteau Twins sound just like Jane Siberry. You can hear her sing Calling All Angels here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ev5byDGADKs Track over to the 1:00 mark - that's where the vocals begin. |

This album is made up of songs that whirl, float, glide, dance, and spin. The lyrics don't make sense; you can either transform the lyrics into words that make sense to you, or you can hear her voice as a musical instrument. |

The whole mix sounds like the song was laminated and then put in a plastic case. Normally I am willing to give a song a chance, and as I am usually listening to Radioparadise through a rather elaborate set up that involves my cell phone, I leave it on. But this time I just could not stomach it! She sounds sort of like she is just spinning out of control, out of this universe, and every time I thought, whew, finally -no she's back! Please please do not play this song again. If not for me, for my waaaay too elborate set up that I must keep in place to tune in to the otherwise outstanding Radio Paradise. |

| Netto (Khimki, Russia) | Posted: Feb 07, 2011 - 14:05 Imho music Cocteau Twins is very difficult for ABBA, though in ABBA is almost art-rock hits: «Eagle» for example. «Together» of NP, that ABBA, yes  |
| spigolli (Peachtree City, GA, USA) | Posted: Feb 07, 2011 - 14:02 Abysmal use of vibrato. |
| SlinkyJ (NJ) | Posted: Jan 07, 2011 - 06:55 More Cocteau Twins please! |
| RobRyan (Canyon Country, CA) | Posted: Jan 07, 2011 - 06:52 Randomax wrote: Why do I think of ABBA? I've never (to my knowledge) heard Cocteau Twins before, but immediately looked over to see which Abba song was playing and wondering why Abba was on RP. That said, the song isn't awful. But then neither was Abba, really. |

| linden (Santa Cruz, CA) | Posted: Jun 30, 2010 - 11:55 This is hitting the spot, right about now. |
| brownbrown (Richmond, VA) | Posted: Jun 30, 2010 - 11:53 nice follow-up to Hooverphonic! |

| beset (Eugene, Oregon) | Posted: Jan 07, 2010 - 12:10 I accept it wholeheartedly this as it is. Elizabeth Fraser has a lovely voice, no matter how she uses it, high or low. Goddess-like greatness. Cocteau Twins beauty! I wish people would quit comparing artists with other artists, saying Abba-Like and Cure crossed with Abba, or whatever. Can't you all just hear each entity as a whole in itself?! You're not being very original yourself when you make these links, and I think you're depriving yourself, like you're on sensory overload. Relax! Speaking of links, ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocteau_Twins >^_^< |

That is weird, thought maybe it had been added. Its the kind of effect you'd get on a reel to reel machine that had a speed stability problem from a worn belt etc... |
