Cocteau Twins: Head Over Heels
Briefly

"Head over heels" also describes the state of mind of its makers, guitarist Robin Guthrie and singer Elizabeth Fraser. Guthrie has described it as an album of love songs. If so, they are veiled and opaque, hints glinting out now and then in a stray song title ("My Love Paramour") or rare intelligible lyric ("There's only a hair's breadth between us"). Mostly, the feeling comes across non-verbally, as it does almost always with Fraser's singing, through the swoony elation of her voice.
