message: I kept most things from the old article intact, only removed the 'year in music' links.. I thought they really cluttered the text up, while every 'year' article has links to 'year in music' in it. - Jashiin — Preceding undated comment added 13:31, 10 October 2004 (UTC)

message: The band is "Cocteau Twins," not "The Cocteau Twins" (cf. the official site). However, the members of the band collectively seem to be referred to as "The Coctau Twins." Please keep this in mind when editing. Intelligence3 15:44, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

message: When I heard that Elizabeth Fraser was FINALLY producing something new, I honestly couldn't contain my exitement.  That exitement was short-lived.  Disappointing is not a good enough word to describe my feelings for this lame mid-90's-sounding-background-rave-club-can only enjoy if you are tripping on X-waste of time.  The new track "Underwater" not only sucks so bad I want to cry, but it droans on tauntingly for over 9 minutes.  I never write on these forums but I just couldn't contain myself.  Do any other devout Cocteau Twins/Elizabeth Fraser fans feel similar?  I just have to know.  I just can't believe that I have waited ten years to hear this crap!!!  Elizabeth, please, if you can't produce something tolerable, preserve your memory and hang it up (and I was willing to forget about the bizarre, in a bad way, rendition of "Frosty the Snowman").76.18.51.254 12:24, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Is there any indication that the podcast mentioned at the end of the article is actually from the band? It seems to be a fan-generated project. --tranquileye (talk) 20:22, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

message: I've added release dates, however I have a couple of conflicts.  I haven't amended the details on the main page, but I have "Garlands" listed as released May 1982, not September; "Head over Heels" as September 1983, not October; and "Heaven or Las Vegas" as 17 September 1990, not August 28 (I have that as the release of the single "Iceblink Luck" which I'm sure was a few weeks before.  Any verification would be welcome! Burtonales (talk) 13:14, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

message: "known for complex instrumentation"
Really?  Where is this referenced from?  Quite frankly, their instrumentation can be quite rudimentary, with simply a drum machine and a guitar.  "Complex instrumentation" would imply multiple musicians and more than several instruments, such as a classical music group.

message: All non-free listening examples must have a description of what is being heard, per WP:NFCCP rule number 8. Right now, the article has a sample of "Spangle Maker" but it does not satisfy the rule with just a name of the song. It needs "contextual significance", usually satisfied by telling the reader what to listen for in the way of musical style or instrumentation or production.
