It'll End in Tears Studio album by This Mortal Coil Released 1 October 1984 (1984-10-01) Genre Dream pop Length 44:12 Label 4AD Producer John Fryer, Ivo Watts-Russell Professional reviews Allmusic Review MP3.com This Mortal Coil chronology Sixteen Days/Gathering Dust (1983) It'll End in Tears (1984) Filigree & Shadow (1986) It'll End in Tears was an album released in 1984 by 4AD using the name This Mortal Coil as an umbrella title for a loose grouping of guest musicians and vocalists brought together by label boss Ivo Watts-Russell. When released in late 1984, the album reached #38 on the UK Albums Chart. It features many of the artists on the 4AD roster at the time of issue, including Dead Can Dance, as well as key post-punk figure Howard Devoto, who sang "Holocaust", one of two covers of songs from the Third/Sister Lovers album by Big Star to appear on the album. The other Alex Chilton-penned track, the album opener "Kangaroo", was released as a single to promote the album. Two key songs were performed by Elizabeth Fraser of Cocteau Twins, including "Song to the Siren" by Tim Buckley; which reached #66 on the UK Charts when released as This Mortal Coil's debut single a year before the album. Their version of Buckley's haunting original showed continued popularity in alternative record shops as it spent almost 2 years on the UK Indie Chart. Fraser also performed on "Another Day" by Roy Harper, a track which has also been covered by Peter Gabriel as a duet with Kate Bush. 4AD would go on to release two further albums under the This Mortal Coil name: Filigree & Shadow (1986) and Blood (1991). Valentino Records, a sublabel of Atco Records, released the album in the United States in late 1984, marking the only time a This Mortal Coil album would be released simultaneously in the UK and America. All three This Mortal Coil albums would later be re-released in America in 1993 on 4AD/Warner Brothers, and in 1998 solely on 4AD.

Trivia "Song to the Siren"'s 101 weeks on the UK Indie Chart was the 4th longest chart run after 3 classics of longevity, Bela Lugosi's Dead by Bauhaus (131 weeks), Blue Monday by New Order (186 weeks) and Love Will Tear Us Apart by Joy Division (195 weeks). The album is referenced in Patton Oswalt's stand up set on his album Werewolves and Lollipops, on the track "America Has Spoken" when ranting about the miserable, lazy, lonely and failed mentality of someone who eats Kentucky Fried Chicken's Famous Bowls. Quote, "Is there a way that the bowl can play This Mortal Coil's It'll End In Tears album while I'm eating at two in the morning in my darkened apartment, just kinda staring into the middle distance?" "Song to the Siren" was used as opening song by Spanish rock band Heroes del Silencio in the shows of their 20th anniversary commemorative World Tour 2007. "Song to the Siren" also appears in the soundtrack of David Lynch's Lost Highway, although it was not included in the album. External links Allmusic album main page MP3.com album main page
