Yep, and another from me. Their MTV Unplugged is the best of the Grunge bands IMHO.

It's still Little Richard, best rock & roll voice of all time.
She's incredible.
I wish Frank Carter would go back to that style of vocals, Modern Ruin isn't nearly as good as Blossom imo. At his best when he's loud and angry. Brilliant front man as well.
The song very nearly didn't get released. It was recorded amongst a number of songs purely as a test for their (then) newly-built studio, but were subsequently released as the Echoes In A Shallow Bay and Tiny Dynamine EPs.
The Cocteaus' singer, Elizabeth Fraser, is, in my opinion, a world apart from other singers. I've not heard anything to compare, and the first time I heard their Treasure LP was one of the most profound experiences of my life.
For many, it would seem that being able to "belt it out" equates with emotion, but Liz has the ability to make my feel such joy and heartache whilst, for the most part, singing in invented languages. Although nobody but Liz knows for sure, it is thought that the words to Pink Orange Red may consist of taxonomic names for moths and butterflies! I have no idea whether this is true or not, but I suspect that she could sing the phone book to me and I'd still be a gibbering wreck. Her voice is quite simply my favourite sound in the universe.
As I said before, I had to think long and hard about which song to choose, but in the end my decision was based on how her voice made me feel, not on whether it showed her widest vocal range or how loudly she's singing. That said, the fluidity she shows with the meter and timing at the outro is outstanding, IMHO.
Anyway, here it is. It certainly won't be to most people's taste, but she's utterly unique and I love her to bits!
I said maybe.....
