Seattle Night Time-Lapse to "Athol Brose"

Cocteau Twins.

Every Cocteau Twins album I can instantly connect with what I was doing then in my life through the music.

I'll spare you.

But Blue Bell Knoll was a period where I was happy for the Cocteau Twins suddenly reaching a new level of fame through MTV's alternative music program--and through massive college radio play.

"Carolyn's Fingers" was sort of massive. It made the year's end "Best of" lists too.

I always hear this song as a spiral rising up into the air.

Like an insect circling around a flower.

Or an elevation of consciousness as it slowly pulls back scrims.

I like what the YouTuber did with the video though.

Although, to be honest, the best thing about this video (which basically just applies one easy modification to the image from the menu) are those dark clouds at top, undershot with a little light.

This sort of thing works so much better in a Reggio film.

Suits Koyaanisqatsi perfectly.

Okay, at the end the planes shooting in and out of Seattle are very beautiful.

Can't deny that.
