A beautiful song from Cocteau Twins! Cocteau Twins - Heaven Or Las Vegas cover: • Cocteau Twins - Heaven... recorded at Svod in 2020 vocals - / worldquiet sound - / ffaraday108
I don’t even know what to say. Having seen this band in concert A few times in the 90s, this might as well been the actual band. the Voice really blew me out of the water. Probably one of the hardest bands to cover and replicate, you guys did this to perfection.
I literally never comment on videos, but I do fall easily into Cocteau Twins video rabbit holes and came across this video. This is amazingly ridiculous. Thank you for sharing!
The Royal Society of Covers (I am sure it exists in some Kingdom ... and if not today is the day to invent it) should confer the Annual Award for Best Cover to this rendition. Really wonderful!
OMG. I have to repeat the previous comment from two years ago…. ‘ I don’t know if you realize how amazing this cover really is’. Absolute WOW! The guitar, the bass, the background music, your voice, absolutely amazing! OMG…. 💥❤️🥹
@@TheVideoLounge me too at Brixton Academy. The only thing missing here is the bit at the start of each song when that big bearded guy would lean over and tap a button on the drum machine to start it going.
I saw them in San Francisco at the Warfield..96...maybe 95..Anyways a truly amazing experience. One of the best concerts I have ever been to right up there with Pink Floyd.
I truly admire your creative courage to cover the Cocteau Twins. The abstruse vocals coupled with the emulated guitar effects of Guthrie...Well done all.
This is just otherworldly and left barely able to comprehend what I’m hearing…having trouble even describing how incredible this is, it needs no explanation
Sublime. The shimmering guitars. The vocals. Spot on, but also your own. Absolutely blown away. What an amazing cover of an incredibly difficult song to pull off live
Not many bands would be brave enough to cover a Cocteau's song but you guys nailed it. I've loved them since 83/84and it's lovely to see the young generation keeping the flame alive. The vocals on this is absolutely tremendous.
So spot on beautiful....there is virtually nothing more righteous and honorable than giving props to Liz by means of such a faithful and lovely cover... massively awesome job, guys...
Fantastic work by both guitarists, but...the real borderline-miracle of this cover is the vocalist's transcendent performance. It's not identical, but it's flawless. You got there. So well done. Thank you. Great to hear this "live."
Wow...Just that...wow. I saw the Cocteaus tour this album in the late 80s & that was a seminal moment for me & you guys have done Liz & the boys massive justice with this cover. Absolutely nailed it. Dave, 52 in Manchester.
So good! Really captured the essence. Thank you, its always nice to be taken to the space a brilliant song can evoke and to go there by a different route, exhilarating!
It’s the new year and I’m now realising blue is the warmest Color. The force of love is such that a manget has formed in my heart for the girl with the angel voice and hair of striking blue. Oh pls don’t flow so fast…
Wow I freakin love this cover actually all your covers but this one surprises me didnt expect you can pull off carolyn's fingers so cool and suits your style.
You guys did a great job. I’m a big fan of the Cocteau Twins I heard them in the 80s the music stuck in my mind and I’m very grateful that these people like you that appreciate and understand great music keep doing what you’re doing. God bless.
When I saw this (never heard of these guys) I thought yeah, right, dream on. She isn't going to be able to cover oh wow, she's doing it. Good job. Those are some hard ranges.
You guys are incredible, the tune itself is different but true to the original and the vocals hit all those high notes perfectly. Definitely not an easy song to cover!
Great job all of you. Fantastic! I had to edit this comment because being a CT fan since 1984 I have seen a lot of covers and am really happy that more and more are doing so, that being said, I have now watched a couple of your videos and am hopefully loving that they are live recordings and not edited because it is really refreshing to hear your versions done live. They are not perfect reproductions, they are your own and I love that. Cheers
Oh you guys are fantastic, really. So young, so awesome. Never heard someone did it really so good, it makes me do something, I'll share it with my kidos so they can hear what is awesomeness!
Wow! First the chords and then your angelic and mesmerizing voice. I have chills and just subscribed and must listen to everything by you. YOU have an amazing gift. Elisabeth Fraser would be in so awe of your beauty and youthfulness.
you mean of Carolyn's Fingers or all of them? CF - absolutely! I don't think Liz ever sang this track very well live but there are a lot of stellar live CT versions on youtube, check out Orange Appled or Pandora :) or this concert is pretty amazing ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ijDrNshmn2c.html&ab_channel=CocteauBuff that all being said, yes, this cover is great!!
A lot of the later live material suffers from the turmoil Liz and Robin's personal relationship was going through at that time. The more successful they got, the more unhappy they became as a band.
