Not quite true. One person, Mushroom, wanted her to do the vocal. The other two wanted Liz . Madonna was sad not to get it but also, didn't Liz Fraser write the lyrics. It was shortly after her partner had died.
What a freakin’ angel Liz Fraser is ❤ There’s no way this song would’ve become the treasure it is with Madonna’s voice on it. All my neighbours are ‘bout to hear this Mezzanine record now 🔊
23 April 1991,I was walking by the Teatro Opera in Buenos Aires and I see the posters advertising the show for Cocteau Twins. I hadn´t ever heard anything of their stuff; all I knew was that they were a band of the 8o´s and British and darkish and dense and unlike any other.But I didn´t know just how much.I hung around the city centre until show time and bought a ticket.I was amazed to see a full house.Amazed that they had no drummer and was mesmerized by Guthrie´s sound and Elizabeth´s voice. Matter of fact, a guy kept on shouting to her "I love you Elizabeth!". And just as it had started,that massive wall of sound ended. They left without any encores and I was swiftly out in the street once more, walking zombie like back home.One of those shows you never forget.
This has to be -without a doubt- one of the most incredible songs ever created. The calming effect it has is amazing. The power of Liz on the lyrics is from another world, and the beat is unbeliavable. I will forever enjoy this piece.
Elizabeth, rightly, gets praised for her mesmerising voice, but never for her beautiful melodies. The melody in ‘Teardrop’ is so memorable. Go have a listen to the instrumental version. It’s just isn’t anywhere near as good.
I love that Elizabeth is so immersed in the song in the outro, you can’t take your eyes off her. I’m guessing that’s what Robin Guthrie saw when he asked her to join the Cocteau Twins on that fateful night, 40 years ago, when he spotted her dancing, on her own, in that club in Grangemouth. Pure bliss.
I heard this song first when I was 11 years old and it hit me in the heart. I’m now about to have a baby and have been through a lot in my pregnancy and listening to this song again has made me connect with the baby inside me in a way I have no words for. I just started singing along with her and something happened spiritually here today. Thank you so much for this beautiful other worldly song 🙏🏼
1 whole tone higher than the original 20 years after when most of singers lower all of their songs in order to reach the highest notes ... Who would have thought?? 🙏 Liz Fraser's voice is intact 😍
She's incredible I must say..... I hope now you all can agree that Elizabeth is among the greatest musician of all time.... what's your favourite Elizabeth song?
Love, love is a verb Love is a doing word Fearless on my breath Gentle impulsion Shakes me, makes me lighter Fearless on my breath Teardrop on the fire Fearless on my breath Night, night of matter Black flowers blossom Fearless on my breath Black flowers blossom Fearless on my breath Teardrop on the fire Fearless on my Water is my eye Most faithful mirror Fearless on my breath Teardrop on the fire Of a confession Fearless on my breath Most faithful mirror Fearless on my breath Teardrop on the fire Fearless on my breath It's tumbling down (as in love falling apart) It's tumbling down (as in love falling apart)
Robin Guthrie must have been psychic if he knew she could sing like this just by seeing her dance at a night club. Marvellous what a magical group they formed.❤
To me, the first minute of Teardrop is the most beautiful minute in all of music. And I listen to EVERYTHING. Anyone else feel this way? I doubt it lol
I was listening to her way back when Head Over Heels came out. Now here she is with MA in 2019. That voice has been shaping my dreams for almost 40 years. Thank you, Elizabeth Fraser ♥
Holy J that was last year! She looks and sounds as good as ever. Thank god for Massive Attack post-Cocteau-Only time you'll ever get to see lovely Liz.
Can you imagine having been at this show, and then entered into and lived through 2020 with the memory that you had been at this show? It would have made it all a little bit more bearable.
Bloody hell, those tears won't stop running. Thank you Liz, for your contribution to what I personally appreciate as visceral and cathartic music. Been a fan since the Cocteau Twins, admired your work with FSOL (lifeforms path 4), then with Massive attack, you are definitely the voice of God. Thank you, really thank you.
So glad this moves you George, slightly jealous at your enjoyment, but while I find it atmospheric and melodic I can't help but at the same time find it boring and more than a bit pretentious.
I sincerely grieve for your loss, my heart aches reading the responses that are duly and heart felt deservedly given. Indeed Elizabeth Frazier has a voice of an angel that your sweetheart will be dearly and rightly remembered with by her side. Peace, love to you and to the lovingly memory of your wife. X
OMG ! I fell across Massive Attack and now 30 yrs later I reconnect with Elizabeth and Robin. Awesome , you guys are just awesome. Thanks you for being you. Love you Elizabeth! I spoke it loud, at that time, you heard, Boston at the Orpheum and politely said, “Thank you.” Will never forget that moment. Massive thanks ! Love ❤️ and Peace !!!
For me that moment was way back in January 1983. The afternoon before the first CT-gig on the continent, Elizabeth entered the venue and just asked for a cup of tea. Well, no problem whatsoever. But then she pulled out her wallet to pay for it. Heaven's sake, that's courtesy of the house darling! Apparently in the UK she was not used to that, but right on that very moment she made me melt and gained an absolute lifetime fan.
I LOVE this woman and have done since I first saw her live in 1983 - she remains an amazing inspiration and someone should bloody well tell her so!! thanks for sharing this!!
She's incredible I must say..... I hope now you all can agree that Elizabeth is among the greatest musician of all time.... what's your favourite Elizabeth song?
I’m in tears as Liz begins this song but smiling with her by the end. So Moving. 😂 Her sheer joy in sharing her amazing gift is still evident. Probably my favorite vocalist ever, saw her in Ann Arbor during her “Heaven or LV” touring days. Her voice remains so beautiful, if only my other favorite vocalist (Whitney H) had been as wise as Elizabeth in preserving her gift. This lovely performance brought me back to past and lifted me up in the present in ways I cannot describe. Thank you Elizabeth, Dear Lady, for this Lovely Gift!! 😌❤
one of the most beautiful songs of the 20thC. I once cradled my son, as a baby, and rocked him to sleep as I gently danced to this and other MA songs...to this day, we share a strong love of this amazing band of creative souls. thank you.
What a boss. When I heard the intro I thought "oh she's gonna sing it almost an octave lower because she's old" and then se performs the song higher than original because why not I guess
Liz Fraser"s vocals are hauntingly beautiful. Her previous work as one half of This Mortal Coil , (from the 80`s,) was so far ahead of its time that I only finally felt time had caught up when their tracks were used in the film, Lovely Bones (2009)
Kyle Knockaert sorry but no.... Garlands is raw and strange .... for me the best album they made .... shure after that they made beautiful music but they never got the deep side of Garlands....
@Dean Ween That's a pretty bold assessment to make. Her vocal range and style expanded throughout the Cocteau Twins later records. Garlands has been one of my favorites for over 30 years. I still appreciate how raw and dark that album is, and not in a pretentious way. And one shouldn't just lump it together with stereotypical post-punk bands. They defied categories musically and were way more interesting than most. They had substance and were vastly original.
after she took vocal lessons in the mid-80s initially to learn how to preserve her voice while touring, she learned how to use her upper register and sing sweeter and lighter, dropping a lot of those Garlands-era mannerisms, all the yelping and hiccuping and shouting. You can hear the changes slowly on Victorialand and some of the mid-period EPs but by Bluebell Knoll she's got a very different singing style and timbre. I reckon she refined that even more by the time she worked with Massive.
@@ericgregory6479 totally right, forgot about her. Some would also mention enya, but she is too steady and repeating. You should also check out Julee Cruise!!!
There's a new one out there in the midst; well she's not new but she's finally getting the credit and audience she so deserves. Christine and the Queens, Héloïse Adelaïde Letissie.

So nice to see her on the stage, again! I saw a Cocteau Twins show, back in 1996 here in São Paulo, Brazil. All love for Massive Attack and Liz Fraser.
I will always Love you Liz. Your ghostly voice that carried my heartbreaks over the many years I cried and fell apart, kept me alive long enough to live and see my children grow up. Thanks for that my dear old friend. I grow old with you.
She's incredible I must say..... I hope now you all can agree that Elizabeth is among the greatest musician of all time.... what's your favourite Elizabeth song?
Liz has been in my life since my teens; Cocteau twins pink opaque album,I have all her 🎶 CDs,saw them live in NYC Roseland ballroom 1994, fantastic,she's lovely and sings like an 😇 angel!
This literally brings a tear tomy eye! Beautiful. Sooo beautiful and Elizabeth sounds jaw dropping fantastic! Wish I could have seen her live myself! 👍
Teardrop is regarded as 1 of the best songs ever made & Elizabeth Fraser has often been regarded as the best voice in the world. A very good live performance by a little 56 year old siren 😎
57 years old and still the voice of an angel

She’s Scottish not British.

She's not underrated at all
Came looking for the standard "underrated" comment that is mandatory on all music videos. I was not disappointed 🙄
@@supertouring22 Came looking for someone calling out the 'underrated' comment. I was not disappointed either.
I grew up with the Cocteau twins , Dead can dance . Liz has the most unique voice , even today . It’s timeless really isn’t it ?
Same. And yes, it truly is.
Few voices can convey the mind to places like Fraser's...rare, sacred.
Don't know...couldn't hear it.
Yes.
Dead can dance, Couteau twins...still listening in 2022. Throw in Peter Murphy and chills run through my mind.
This song was playing on the radio when I took my wife to the hospital to deliver our first child. It will always have a huge place in my life.
Madonna wanted to record this track with Massive Attack - Massive Attack chose Liz 😎
Wise choice
wise move! madonna was a leech back then

It really has stood up.
The beat sounds like a heartbeat ! That's why the "calming effect" is powerfull.
you're absolutely right. No more to add
She had stated it’s a song reflecting about her failing relationship with Jeff Buckley. She was recording it when he went missing.
Elizabeth, rightly, gets praised for her mesmerising voice, but never for her beautiful melodies. The melody in ‘Teardrop’ is so memorable. Go have a listen to the instrumental version. It’s just isn’t anywhere near as good.
My god she sounded even better then on the album... and the higher key change was also nice.

Legendary, I count myself as being very fortunate to have seen Liz Fraser perform live once.
Me too, sawthe Cocteau twins in the eighties, absolutely brilliant.
I envy you both...
I saw them 6 or 7 times back in the day. Best was the Paris Zenith for 4 calendar cafe. I didn’t get to see Kate so I’m happy with Liz !
I saw her with the twins in 80s and attack in 90s. Rare creature she is
Mezzanine should have garnered a million awards.
That album was a masterpiece.
Probably the most beautiful song ever written
and we return to listen repeatedly, haven't we
The only one singer that sings the song a tone ABOVE. perfect.
Bravo for the comment, this is beautiful.
Auroras cover of this is amazing
She's even singing in a higher tone! Wow! Soooo delicated! I miss more volume in her voice to hear it more. Amazing interpretation.

It’s actually “feathers” on my breath. She pronounces words a bit strangely.
It's also 'We're stumbling in the darkness' at the end, not 'it's tumbling down'
And its "feel your breath on my face"
Still one the greatest and most unique singers of our times.
This is everything to me. One of the greatest most iconic songs of all time sung by the voice of a generation.
You are so right Chrysta!🥰
Cried listening to this. Loved it since school days. Now I’m a mother of two.
