''Superstition'' is the tenth studio album by Siouxsie and the Banshees, released in 1991. The first single, "Kiss Them for Me" gave the band its first top-forty Billboard Hot 100 hit in the United States, peaking at number 23. The band widened their musical influences with the arrival of Indian musician Talvin Singh, who was asked to play tablas on the songs "Kiss Them for Me" and "Silver Waterfalls".
''Q'' magazine hailed the record : "They pop it up with sweet string textures on the single 'Kiss Them For Me', bear down on the maritime metaphor of 'Drifter' with doomy foghorn and bells effects, give it the all but Twin Peaks dreamscape for 'Softly'." ''Melody Maker'' highly praised its first single: "Kiss Them for Me is gorgeous, wicked, and glamorous" ''NME'' wrote : "With the delicious 'Kiss Them For Me' gracing the Gallup Top 40 with a touch of real class, the release of Siouxsie & The Banshees' 10th studio LP could not have come at a better time. 'Superstition' is a giant of a record, casting a sinister shadow over the listener in true Banshee style." - Wikipedia
