Massive Attack’s Teardrop is one of the most iconic tracks of the late ‘90s — ethereal, haunting, and unforgettable. But behind the floaty melodies and Elizabeth Fraser’s ghostly vocals lies a stormy tale of creative conflict, betrayal, and heartbreak that nearly tore the band apart.

In this video, we dive deep into the dramatic story behind the making of Teardrop — from Massive Attack’s early days as part of the Bristol DJ collective The Wild Bunch, to the fractured and tension-filled sessions that gave birth to Mezzanine. You’ll learn how a harpsichord loop sparked a feud over Madonna vs. Cocteau Twins, how a personal tragedy shaped the final vocal take, and how this track changed the band forever

Whether you're a longtime Massive Attack fan or just discovering the roots of trip-hop, this is a story you won’t want to miss.
