Lloyd Cole & The Commotions / Rattlesnakes (1984); Das Album kombiniert eingängige Melodien mit tiefgründigen, oft melancholischen Texten, die von Cole's charakteristischem Gesang getragen werden. Die Songs sind geprägt von einer Mischung aus Folk, Rock und New Wave, wobei der Titeltrack „Rattlesnakes“ und „Perfect Skin“ besonders hervorstechen. #LloydCole #LloydColeAndTheCommotions #NewWave #PopRock #IndiePop #IndieRock #BritPop

Tonight, my dear Fediverse friends, I switch to English in order to create a thread containing quotes from lyrics by the one and only #LloydCole

Why, you might ask? Because he is simply wonderful, thats why.

My introduction to LLoyd Cole was hearing "Lost Weekend" on a mix cd given to me years ago. Then I was hooked. This feature on Cole includes "The Idiot" from 2023.

Okay, in the list of "songs that will instantly take me back 40 years and leave me wobbly and wondering 'what-if'..."

I did not expect this one to do it.

But wow.

Where did *that* rush of emotion come from?
