This song, the single on their decidedly more upbeat than past releases Heaven or Las Vegas, didn't happen by accident. Elizabeth Fraser is happy... mostly because she was a mother. This song is likely about her daughter, Lucy-Belle, who she had in 1989 with fellow Cocteau Twin Robin Guthrie.

30 December 2020 - Cocteau Twins - Iceblink Luck
I know a lot of people think the Cocteau Twins sound dour and sad. This is not a sad or dour song. It's quite chipper. This song achieved something no other Cocteau Twins song had prior - UK radio airplay. It cracked their Top 40 - and got some significant alternative play stateside.
