Cocteau Twins

Cocteau Twins

Cocteau Twins es una banda de rock, originaria de Grangemouth, Escocia, que estuvo en activo durante las dos últimas décadas del siglo XX (1982-1996). Derivada de la música punk y New Wave, se inscriben dentro de la llamada Dark Wave, más específicamente fueron los creadores y los líderes del género conocido como Dream Pop. Su sonido único (causado en parte por las innovadoras texturas del guitarrista Robin Guthrie y la voz y la técnica única sin apenas precedentes de Elizabeth Fraser) hizo que fueran una de las bandas más originales de su época. Robin Guthrie, DJ en el "Nash", un club nocturno de su ciudad natal, llevaba algún tiempo tocando con Will Heggie en distintos grupos. En el Nash conocieron a Elizabeth Fraser, que frecuentaba el local. Con Guthrie en la guitarra, Heggie en el bajo y Fraser como vocalista, formaron Cocteau Twins. Adoptaron el nombre de una canción de los también escoceses Simple Minds, que posteriormente se llamó "No Future".

Letra de Mud And Dark
Echo fell in love with the handsome narcissus
Narcissus saw nymphs who adored him
And wasn't ever raised to their affection

"Is anyone here?"
"Here here!"
"Come!"
"Come!"
"I will die before I give you power over me!"
"I give you power over me!"

All that remains of Echo is her voice in caves
(all that remains of Echo is her voice in caves)
Still repeating only what others have said
(still repeating only what others have said)

Naricissus leaned over a clear pool
For a drink and fell hoplessly
In love with his own reflected image

Cursed through thought of futile desire to have his own affection
In turn Narcissis slowly wasted away
And didn't continue to love me

All that remains of Echo is her voice in caves
(all that remains of Echo is her voice in caves)
Still repeating only what others have said
(still repeating only what others have said)

All that remains of Echo is her voice in caves
(all that remains of Echo is her voice in caves)
Still repeating only what others have said
(still repeating only what others have said)

And death, eventually, overtook him as he stared
He's found a finger for you; "Why would you be so mean?"
And she repeated these same words to him

And Echos fleshes all were scattered about
And her bones turned to stone
Today, all that remains of Echo is her voice in caves

"Is anyone here?"
"Here, here!"
"Come!"
"Come!"
"I will die, before I give you power over me!"
"I give you power over me."
REPEAT
