One of the most innovative post-punkbands of the 1980s, Cocteau Twinsbuilt a sound based on woozy atmospherics and singer Elizabeth Fraser's utterly unmatchable vocals, most of which featured lyrics of made-up words, words plucked at random from the dictionary, and her native gaelic, which varied strongly in pitch in minimal times, drawing comparison with acclaimed singer Maria Callas. Forming in 1980, their first release was Garlandsin 1982 on 4AD Records, which was received well. Founding member Will Heggie left the group in 1983, prior to the release of their second full-length, Head Over Heels, which was also received well.

The pair had a hit with a cover of Tim Buckley's .

Cocteau Twins
When he pushes away
Like he's gonna have to make me
He gladdens
(x2)
Oh, please
Please
When he pushes away
Like he's gonna have to make me
He he he he he he
It's so good to have a man
It's so good to have him check him out
Saliva peeks from his trail
I gained a lot of advice from him
(x2)
Oh, please
Please
It's so good to have a man
It's so good to have him check him out
At night
Oh, please
Please
It's so good to have a man
It's so good to have him check him out
When he pushes her back
Like he's gonna have to make me
Saliva peeks from his trail
I gained a lot of advice from him
It's so good to have a man
It's so good to have him check him out
Saliva peeks from his trail
I gained a lot of advice from him
(x2)
Oh, please
Please
When he pushes her back
Like he's gonna have to make me
Please
Please
It's so good to have a man
It's so good to have him check him out
My love
