Frou Frou Foxes In Midsummer Fires

by Cocteau Twins

Biography:

Cocteau Twins were an innovative and influential Scottish dream pop band. Forming in 1979 in Grangemouth, Scotland, UK (the name taken from an obscure song by fellow Scots Simple Minds), they built a sound based on woozy atmospherics and singer Elizabeth Fraser's unmatchable vocals, most of which featured lyrics of made-up words and words plucked at random from the dictionary.

Their first release was "Garlands" in 1982 on 4AD Records, which was received well.

Singed by it, pulled around of my blazening (Pulled round)

Pulled rounder

Dm
Their fan I tickle
Dm/E
From serpents to dragons
Dm/C
I'd nurse you in flame

Your milk and your passion

Lead weight for his from his old turn
Dm/E
The young, I was eagerest
Dm/C
I'm losing the stars
Dm/A
I enlisted to find you
