I agree Desotoslo. The Cocteau's are a group that in the old days would've been called a "cult" band. You know the only people that know about them are the ones that are into them. I've mentioned them to quite a few people over the years and nobody had ever heard of them. I remember being into early Genesis and it was like that.
Your " macho enough " comment definitely rings true. Some guys will only get Big Dogs for the same reason
. I've heard people say they are like " heavy metal enya", which is kind of true. Elizabeth fraser has used alot of Enya/Abba type vocal production techniques. I wish they would at least finish the last record that was started but never finished. If you listen to Robin that won't happen. They tried to have a reunion show a couple of years ago but Elizabeth backed out at the last minute. The "angelic" sound that comes out of her mouth is very beautiful indeed, she seems to be a very sensitive person.
