Siouxsie & The Banshees

Christine
1980 7" 45rpm. "Christine" is a single by the British post-punk band Siouxsie & The Banshees, released on May 30, 1980, by Polydor Records. The track is featured on their third studio album, "Kaleidoscope." Written by the group's lead vocalist Siouxsie Sioux and bassist Steven Severin, the song is notable for its swirling, hypnotic guitar riff, played by guitarist John McGeoch, and its driving rhythm. The lyrics of "Christine" refer to the dissociative identity disorder of Christine Sizemore, who was the subject of the book and film "The Three Faces of Eve."

The vinyl release of "Christine" includes the B-side "Eve White/Eve Black," which further explores themes of multiple personality disorder, complementing the A-side's concept. The single's cover art features a distinctive, eerie photograph of a mannequin's head adorned with intricate, surreal designs, reflecting the song’s haunting and fragmented nature. "Christine" is celebrated for its innovative sound and remains one of Siouxsie & The Banshees' most enduring and influential tracks, showcasing their ability to blend post-punk's raw energy with experimental and psychedelic elements.
