God, what a drag!!!!! Are you really just a kid... are you sure you’re worth so much more than me musically just because you know by heart what other critics say? Good job, learn, learn, and never express any real ideas of your own... for me, you’re stuck in the anal phase... gazing at your own words like a baby who just soiled his diaper... really, really mature.... but enough already!

I'm fed up... you started criticizing me... and without anyone asking for your opinion... I believe that Mario was referring to you too... you are really annoying... and arrogant! Which is truly outdated!

Furthermore, not only did you not comment on the review, but you commented on a comment about the review (mine), which by the way had little to do with the review itself. I mean, is there anything more useless? Pure intellectual masturbation... I just want to add that if you had read my comment properly, you would have noticed that I described The Beekeeper as an elegant torture. But evidently, you were more interested in latching onto a single phrase to show how smart and "critical" you are. Congratulations! I hope we don't have to revisit this topic again. Bye bye!

First of all, giving a rating to a review doesn’t equate to giving a rating to a thought... and a comment would be enough. Instead, you come in and state your opinion about the album without saying anything about the style of the person who wrote it, or the content... You could do the same by writing a proper review. Anyway, that’s not the point. You contradict yourself because you commented on my opinion, while I simply expressed my preference. I’m aware that Blue Bell Knoll isn’t the best album by the Cocteau Twins, but it’s certainly not among the worst as you say. I believe it’s only inferior to the first three, and personal preferences often disregard the intrinsic value of a work; they are tied to other factors. I don’t think further explanation is necessary. For example, I adore Bergman’s "Persona," but I know it’s not anywhere near as good as "Smiles of a Summer Night" or "The Seventh Seal." I don’t see why I should explain to you why Blue Bell Knoll is among my favorite albums. Furthermore, bolstering your positions with statements from other critics is a bit pathetic. Just give your opinion and that’s it. I repeat: you’re arrogant!

And you should reread the comments... I said it's one of my favorite albums, not that it's the best in their discography... then, instead of being a know-it-all and pontificating about Tori and the Cocteau Twins, why don’t you also comment on the review? You only rated the album... what sense does that make?

and thanks to everyone for the comments! I've added some samples for those who might not be familiar with them.

thank you editor

Yes, you're right... I apologize for the oversight... how can we fix this???

The record doesn't resonate with me... I can't do anything about it, it must be my limitation, but I still prefer Bjork.

Ugh, now I'm feeling down... I'm from '86! Anyway, where did you find that information? On Lisa's site, there are only the American dates...
