Cherry Coloured Funk” by Cocteau Twins is one of my favorite songs of all time. This song transports me back to my early teenage days; awkward, dressed in black, doc marten wearing (well, some of those things haven’t much changed), staying up late watching 120 minutes on MTV. Discovering new music with soaring guitars, layers of sound and a feeling of being connected to these people making this strange music I loved that I wouldn’t ever meet. However, they and this song, just felt like home. And it still does to this day.
