Massive Attack - Teardrop 1998
"Teardrop" is a song by English trip hop group Massive Attack. Vocals are performed by Scottish singer Elizabeth Fraser, former lead singer of Cocteau Twins, who also wrote the lyrics. It was released on 27 April 1998 as the second single from the group's third studio album, Mezzanine.
In the UK, "Teardrop" peaked at number 10, becoming the group's highest-charting single and only top-10 hit in their native country. It reached number one in Iceland and became a top-20 hit in Australia, Denmark, Ireland, and New Zealand.
The song has been featured in various television programmes, including as the opening theme for the medical drama series House.
"Teardrop" was first developed from a simple harpsichord riff picked out in the studio in April 1997. Andrew Vowles, the main songwriter of this song, originally sent the demo to Madonna as he wanted her to record the vocals (the band had previously worked with her on their 1995 reworking of the song "I Want You"). However, the two other band members Robert Del Naja and Grantley Marshall wanted Elizabeth Fraser of the Cocteau Twins to record the vocals, feeling her ethereal style suited the mournful melody and feel of the piece. Madonna was very keen to record the vocals, and was disappointed when the two-to-one vote went in Fraser's favour.
"Teardrop" received a total of 73,3% yes votes! Previous Massive Attack polls: #39 "Angel"

I have a love-hate relationship with the housemd intro bc on one hand I love the music, the coloring, the little shuffling sound right before RSL's name shows up on the screen...on the other hand why is everyone else represented as some anatomical part of the body but then Jennifer Morrison is a fucking river
