I pretty much only listen to instrumental music cause at a certain point I started hating vocals/lyrics in songs

Still listen to a lot of David Berman's stuff though

One of the best songs I’ve ever heard

(and coincidentally Canada’s first music video)

that's my favorite silver jews song

Almost didn’t post it cause it seemed too on-the-nose or something cause it really is one of the best

So many great and evocative lines & phrases all throughout it

There’s some lines from People on that same album that I feel like are running through my mind daily

Time was, I could move my arms like a bird
Fly!

She was a wingwalker
Pitgirl of the sky

And now I got an engine
A big perverted engine
It runs on strength of will
Who could deny me the right to fly?
You know, it's my art
When I form my body in the shape of a plane


I'm a plane!
I'm a plane!
I'm a plane!
I'm a plane!

Now I got an airframe
A big perverted airframe
You know, It's my art
When I disguise my body in the shape of a plane


I'm a plane! (I'm a plane!)
I'm a plane! (I'm a plane!)
I'm a plane! (I'm a plane!)
I'm a plane! (I'm a plane!)

Look at me, look at me - I'm a plane! Look at me, I'm a plane! Look at me!

And the plane becomes a metaphor for my life
And as I suffer for it
Like I'm insane, as it says...
So she suffers under the weight of my plane
You know? It's my art! When I disguise my body in the shape of a plane

Plane! (Plane!)

ahahahaha same. usually sounds to me like "shibbedibbedaya/abewaya/comatumawaya/modeloka/...." or some gibberish like that. also love cocteau twins! i mean there are clearly some words and sentences in there, but when i think of cocteau twins i think of vocals that sound like fantasy language mostly. maybe it's the mixing, the way she pronounces and how the melody fits the vowels and such. i know there's actual lyrics to the songs. but even when i read them along i find them hard to really make out sometimes.
