Head over Heels is an August 1983 (see 1983 in music) album by British rock group Cocteau Twins. The album was their first as a duo. Head over Heels is a mix of sonic textures, melodies and harmonies. Though the album's popularity has always been limited, its critical acceptance is virtually absolute, and its influence on countless future musicians well-documented. The album can be seen as the origin of much of the Britpop boom of the mid- 1990s, and many of the styles which preceded it, including shoegazing, twee pop and space rock.
