    I listen to this often. To hear a male voice is a lovely twist. It also works without Elizabeth’s vocal gymnastics. It’s just a beautiful song brilliantly performed here

    I've been listening to this many times today. I think I'm up to seven now….
    I've loved the Cocteau Twins since first hearing them many years ago, and enjoying them in concert. It saddened me that their work wasn't being kept alive, as it should be, and continuing to be loved. I am so grateful to you for covering their work. You play beautifully.
    PS: I adore The Sundays as well. Your covers of their work are just absolutely lovely.

    This is insanely good. Your covers are a bright spot in my day and I wish I had mp3s for all of them. This is probably my favorite one, along with your Hartfield cover. Keep being awesome, man.

    Altho I first heard this cover alot closer to the actual date of publish I never got around to saying: you nailed this song in your own awesome way, a prime example of an outstanding rendition of a song not so easily covered.. These words come from someone who's been listening to the cocteau twins they're entire life

    Man....I grew up on this stuff and it takes me back every time I hear it. These guys, The Sundays, The Innocence Mission, and That's Entertainment by The Jam instantly stop me in my tracks. You absolutely nailed the feeling and essence of the Cocteau Twins and The Sundays covers were superb. Thanks man....I'm just learning how to play ....this give me hope.

    Oh man, just got here by accident as I misspelled Matt Gourley and since I LOOOOVE Cocteau Twins it felt right to give it a listen. I didn't expect much because I think if there is one band impossible to cover it would be this one but man oh man... Great great job! You've managed to capture the essence, great harmonies, the overall feel.. Wow! Thank you!

    I loved them and the Sundays as a teenager, in 2007-2009, not during their heyday. But I became acquainted with that music from my stepmom’s CD collection. I did covers of their and the Sundays’ music, to varying degrees of success in pulling them off. I didn’t even experience either of their music 🎶 during the time they were making it, but I still think 💭 there is a timeless very particular atmospheric sound to both of them and to a slightly lesser extent, The Smiths, that has never quite been duplicated by the newer waves 🌊 of shoegaze-influenced bands. Once I discovered the term, I soon realized I was like the only person I knew in my high school, Sturgis Charter Public School, who knew the term “shoegaze”. Someone was like “What are you talking about Reuben? Shoegaze?” and that the Sundays struck them as being “like female Morrissey”, which isn’t entirely off-base. People around me my age knowing the term “shoegaze” only seemed to come later when I was in college at UMass Lowell.
