Isn’t it just?!

He wrote it to sound like American slang English to people who can’t speak English, the fucking mad bastard to “break down communication barriers”, haha

Anything by the cocteau twins. I thought they were from Iceland before I came on this site.

Frightening to think some of those girls are in their seventies now.

Complete tosh, but beautiful.

Heart of the Sunrise - Yes

Love comes to you and you follow
Lose one on to the heart of the sunrise
Sharp distance
How can the wind with its arms
All around me
Lost on a wave and then after
Dream on on to the heart of the sunrise
Sharp distance
How can the wind with so many around me
Lost in the city
Lost in their eyes as you hurry by
Counting the broken ties they decide
Love comes to you and then after
Dream on on to the heart of the sunrise
Lost on a wave that you're dreaming
Dream on on to the heart of the sunrise
Sharp distance
How can the wind with its arms all around me
Sharp distance
How can the wind with so many around me
I feel lost in the city
Lost in their eyes as you hurry by
Counting the broken ties they decided
Straight light moving and removing
Sharpness of the color sun shine
Straight light searching all the meanings of the song
Long last treatment of the telling that
Relates to all the words sung
Dreamer easy in the chair that really fits you
Love comes to you and then after
Dream on on to the heart of the sunrise
Sharp distance
How can the wind with its arms all around me
Sharp distance
How can the wind with so many around me
I feel lost in the city

Before quoting anymore Yes lyrics, just bare in mind Jon Anderson himself admits he hasn’t a clue what they’re about.
He just wrote stuff that sounded good with the music.

Peter Gabriel ....

Working in gardens, thornless roses
Fat men play with their garden hoses
Poolside laughter has a cynical bite
Sausage speared by the cocktail satellite
