Cocteau Twins | Sugar Hiccup | 1983

This video is a completely re-edited version of a Cocteau Twins TV performance of Sugar Hiccup, a track from their 1983 album Head Over Heels. • Wiki: Head over Heels is the second studio album by Scottish alternative rock band Cocteau Twins. The album was released on 24 October 1983 through the label 4AD. It featured the band's signature sound of "Guthrie's lush guitars under Fraser's mostly wordless vocals". Fabulous piece published in The Quietus on the 40th anniversary of Head Over Heels, written by Darran Anderson: https://thequietus.com/articles/33528... • As a teenager in 1983, I had my dream job, working behind the counter at Virgin Records, Croydon High Street. I vividly remember in October that year, Head Over Heels arriving at our store. I recall that the 4AD artwork made it hard to ascertain which was side 1. I put the vinyl on the record deck and the store became filled with exquisite soaring vocals, reverb drenched guitars and unidentifiable instruments. Prior to that, I’d written off the Cocteau Twins as gothy 2nd-rate Banshees imitators. But somehow with Head Over Heels the band had completely reinvented themselves, and created something entirely new. Certainly I’d never heard anything like it. Sugar Hiccup was very obviously the most accessible and catchy song from the Head Over Heels album. It quickly became a staple for alternative music lovers during that era. It’s no surprise that a few weeks after the album was released, an 12” EP followed with Sugar Hiccup as the lead track. Perhaps if 4AD and the band had the budget and the will, a promo video could have been made, and Sugar Hiccup might well have been a 1983 Christmas hit! Until quite recently, I was unaware that there was any video of the Cocteau Twins performing Sugar Hiccup. Then I stumbled across the Àngel Casas Show footage, originally broadcasted on the 3rd of July 1984 on TV3, a Catalan TV station. The footage is very problematic, because it features some extremely, shall we say, "random", lip syncing. Liz Fraser seems to remember many parts wrongly, and even totally omits miming whole sections of the song. Her voice rings out, as she stands mute at the mic, and it seems, a little embarrassed. A few months ago, I tasked myself with creating a coherent video for Sugar Hiccup with the Àngel Casas Show material, and have been dabbling with it ever since. I swapped scenes around and manipulated others. The fact that the original video often has lengthy double and triple dissolves did not make things any easier. Anyway, now we have a video that [hopefully] appears to show Liz Fraser miming correctly to Sugar Hiccup. You dear viewer, may be the judge of whether it works, or not. Thanks for watching, hope you dig it! • Credits Video source: Cocteau Twins | Sugar Hiccup | Àngel Casas Show | TV3 | 3 July 1984 | Episode Directed by Àngel Casas and Produced by Paz Canals Audio source: Cocteau Twins | Sugar Hiccup | from the album Head Over Heels | Recorded Palladium Studios, Edinburgh | Released 24 October 1983 ℗ 1983 4AD Ltd Music Publisher: CMRRA Music Publisher: Universal Music Publishing Ltd Music Publisher: Harry Fox Agency Music Publisher: Momentum 3 Music Musicians: Liz Fraser | Vocals Robin Guthrie | Guitar | bass guitar, keyboards, drum machine Cocteau Twins | Production • Always more videos to follow, so please keep your electric eye on me babe!
