Cocteau Twins Picture
One of the most innovative post-punkbands of the 1980s, Cocteau Twinsbuilt a sound based on woozy atmospherics and singer Elizabeth Fraser's utterly unmatchable vocals, most of which featured lyrics of made-up words, words plucked at random from the dictionary, and her native gaelic, which varied strongly in pitch in minimal times, drawing comparison with acclaimed singer Maria Callas. Forming in 1980, their first release was Garlandsin 1982 on 4AD Records, which was received well. Founding member Will Heggie left the group in 1983, prior to the release of their second full-length, Head Over Heels, which was also received well.

The pair had a hit with a cover of Tim Buckley's .

For Phoebe Still A Baby Lyrics

Cocteau Twins

Little Phoebe
Who I've never seen
Had you asked, I'd be right out
And maybe
In a good time
Phoebe, then I'll tuck you in

How is it
Listen angel
You do
Listen angel
Run along and shine the world
This night, angel
Don't tell
Please smile on, angel
Run along and shine the whole night away

And, say
And maybe
In a good time
Phoebe then I'll tuck you in
Little Phoebe
Who I've never seen
Had you asked, I'd be right out

For love feels
Listen angel
Feels
Listen angel
Run along and shine the world
This night, now, angel
It's all the same
Listen, now, angel
Run along and shine the whole world, angel
How is it
Listen angel
You do
Listen a
Run along and shine the world
This night, angel
Don't tell
Please smile on, angel
Run and shine the whole world now, my angel
