“Éperdu” – Cocteau Twins, Milk and Kisses (1996)
This is definitely the song Sinead is going to sing for the Kissing in the Rain musical interlude on Monday. The way I figured it out was, the clue Yulin posted today shows a character named Victoria. That would make anyone think of the Cocteau Twins’ 1986 album Victorialand. That was too obvious, I knew. But then I realized that their 1996 album was called Milk and Kisses.
Kisses. Kisses. I can be slow on the uptake sometimes, but even I couldn’t miss that.
I went through the songs on the album, and it was obvious which one they’d be doing. The title “Éperdu” is from a French adjective meaning “desperate, distraught” (as of a glance or look), “overwhelming, desperate” (as of a need), or “boundless, violent” (in terms of love). Hello. Is there any fan of Shipwrecked who could miss the obvious references to their preferred subject matter?
So looking forward to Monday.
