[UniqueEva]

[Voltigeur07]

[30inventionman]

terry can go fuck himself and his racial slurs , fucking idiot basdard, and you brain fucked

[Freshnewz10]

This song makes me feel as if the world is mine but im too iresponsible to have it. Weird it feels like you see the truth surrounded by fog. Too hard to explain.

[NitemareBaby]

I wish they would have put the clip in where the bull fighter gets gored in the ass.

[MrAllsgood]

I thought to myself at the end, poor animal with a mouthfull of steak ? lol. Cool tune.

[TheXiu1983]

Piosenka fajna, teledysk już nie...

...jakby jakiś byk zabił tak dla relaksu ze dwoje ludzi to może jakiś głos bym oddał...

[Kluddmanbull]

Turn vegetarian... You might be a little skinnier, but you will survive... Live and let live.

[mattvange]

Viva Massive Attack !! Viva los Toros !!! Viva La Fiesta Brava en todo el Mundo !!!!!

[metroduced]

i hate corida

[elpapijt]

Yes, silly people it's an "official" vid. It's on MA's website too.

[sibanak8888]

in France too we have those f....... barbarians.

[raindancersv]

who has the right to torture and kill animals for their own fun????fuck them all!!

[illicitconcept]

@raindancersv who has the right to torture and kill animals for getting his cheeseburger for 1 € and not seeing all any of what's behind the story of this burger?

you guys are just so shocked because you can see that animals actually get killed by humans, big surprise...

[Gaspardg]

Commencez par sauvez des gens autour de vous avant de critiquer les matadors. It's too easy to criticize, act.

[gweflj]

@Gaspardg Yeah it's really easy. It's sick.

[ROTZGOERE11]

I love this song and somehow it fits to the video. But I dont like bullfighting

[areagravitysense]

bullfhigting is a tradition from spain and mexico is one of the worst sports

MASSIVE ATTACK excelent music

[mychelyny]

La perbercidad de Ser un Humano.

[WzasieguTwegoWzroku]

straszna lipa z tym 'twoim clipem/

[balticseatrout]

sick video

[AdrianaMorpheo]

I´m from Spain and I think that bullfighting is disgusting.

[evfdurs]

really, daddy g's voice is sensual in this one.

[JohnwiththeMustaches]

bullfighting is mint

[super2vidrios]

Besides being a clear expression of violence against animals characteristic of Spain

[juanggrados]

the art of bullfighting is the only cultural way of expression where life and death are real.

[popestofjp]

ヘリゴランド入手しました。

Splitting The Atom聞いて、確実だろうとは思ってましたが満足の出来。

教授好きでもあるので、初回相当テンションあがって聞いてました­。

これからも無限に、新作期待してます。

KOOOL！

[tigerpjm]

What a fantastic video for a fantastic song. I'd never seen bull fighting before, hopefully this raises some sort of awareness of this disgusting "sport"..... torturing a defenceless and confused animal to death.

I think that the most beautiful thing about this "beautiful" sport would be seeing the matador severely gored.

Massive Attack at their challenging best. Genius.

[101decastro]

great post, they should sub out the bull for lion or gorilla.

[GeXeS]

Exactly! I feel very happy each time I see some of those dancing bastards mutilated.

[mmlifego]

ヘリゴランド収録の一曲ですね。アルバム発売前に見られて非常に­嬉しいです。

元々、マッシヴ・アタックに不安要素なんてありませんが、今回も­ちゃんと期待通りの音が聞けそうで嬉しいです。相変わらず高水準­且つ、ズブズブズブズブと脳が沈んでいくようなサウンド。

とにかく楽しみに待ってます。

[Aridcreaturehere]

This release is very chill.

[INSOMNIA812]

i'm from spain and i am totally against these criminal acts... save the animals!

Massive Attack Rules The World!

[chazswaz87]

i previewed the album on itunes , sounds pretty good

[bossanoga0123]

Thanx Richard

[fluffycrab]

I doubt this is an official promo video.

[madotie]

Yes it is an official promo, directed by Baillie Walsh who directed the Blue Lines era videos

[trsten8]

Music is great, but video is a BIG shit.

[snowymanul]

so.... damn, it's so fuckin good! :)

[theFirecat00]

lyrics - first part the baby was worn nettles and ferns the evening it chokes the candle it burns this disguise covers bitter lies repeating the joke the meaning it dies pass me a coat I'm not afraid to leave I'm letting u know I know what u need I'll turn u around this beautiful town and then u'll believe it when ur eyes then deceive u its easy, dont let it go don't lose it its getting colder outside your rented space they shadow box and they paper chase it never stops and we'll never learn

[theFirecat00]

no hope without dope the jobless return

the bankers have bailed the mighty retreat

the pleasure it fails at the end of the week

u take it or leave or what u receive

to what u receive is eternited leave

its easy, dont let it go don't lose it

[milou6934]

Is there anyboby in there who understood the lyrics? We know that Massive Attack loves to criticize what they judge absurd, it's not new! According to me, I love the song.

[kanyonx]

It amazes me that some people still don't see the moral difference between eating animals (which animals do) and slowly killing them a stab at a time sheerly for the amusement of an audience (which not even animals do). There's a difference between moral relativity and moral equivalence - the application of judgement. Kudos to Massive Attack - they evoke a lot of empathy with this video.

[footballisthewinner]

confusing moral selectiveness is all i see reading these comments

the above images are wrong?

why is that then?

[meathena]

Well that certainly made me hate bullfighting more. And made me want to throw up. Sick fuckers. If that was the point of the video (and I sure as hell hope so - MA, care to clarify?) it certainly worked.

[xxxladyFLY2xxx]

This song is amazing! I luv it

[Necrothorn666]

Don't get me wrong i love massive attack, and every video they make including this one, but this one horrifies me and upsets me so much, i was in spain this year and even the thought of bullfighting going through barcelona made me sick then, anyone who believe this shit to be 'sport; has insanity problems, which [dnt fuckin quote me] i think is what they meant by showing this

[67genxer]

"tree hugging bitch ?" your a angrey self hating mess are'nt you. Maybe you feel you could be the bull and no one would care... all the suffering that goes on every minute of everyday in the meat industry that most people are not even aware of, yet they have a problem with bullfighting but no problem eating KFC. Why do you think Massive Attack made the video. ever think about that. it's about the sadness of humanity and how cruel we are to each other, it's about you!!! now listen to the music.

[GameKing777777]

Cry me a river were all animals.

[CaptainChinblade]

I didn't wanna watch the whole video but I was compelled. Fucked up. Nothing against Spain, I plan to visit someday when I'm going to Germany with some friends.. but I'll be passing up the bull impalements and goat crushing and that type of shit.. Maybe some soccer..

[olamuz]

yea, I love good music, but why to promote this bullshit (sic!) bull fighting???! Fucking heroes

[MrTrubshaw]

hmm reading a few off the comments below it would seem people came here to hate on bull fighters and there sport, i just came here for good music and thats what i got.

[photogeen]

the video is good, its not about bulls, stop arguing about it

[barabasz55]

corrida = Sadism

[lumbrerasluis]

Please, we need the energy from many people from all of the world to stop this torture situation in Spain.

HELP US!! PLEASE!! HELP US TO STOP BULL TORTURE IN SPAIN!!

[GameKing777777]

You fucking tree hugging bitch shut the fuck up! Bull fighting is a sport. Now just listen to the fucking music!

[oldnavyrum]

@GameKing777777 I'm kinda ambiguous about bullfighting but you're definitely a prick. Given that bullfighting does involve killing an animal it's bound to be controversial - if you want to defend it at least try and do it intelligently. Moron.

[GameKing777777]

Wow I feel like such an asshole I'm sorry bull fighting is wrong I did now know it involved killing animals I'm so sorry.

[oldnavyrum]

Apology accepted. Just try to stop being such a cock in future. I'm sure we can all get along.

[AldaHuxley]

The singing style in this song reminds me a little bit of Leonard Cohen.

[henkka464]

I also hope that all thos bullfighter scums are going to die slowly with great suffering, and their children and childrens children and generations yet to come. *spit*

[outdoorschoko]

maybe they just wanna show whats going on in the world. i dont like to watch the video, too. it simply hurts. but i try to understand why they did it...

[moun38]

Just great, love it

[ljmas]

the songs pretty cool, i love horace andys voice! but the video sucks big ones!.. watching some matador poncing around in front of a dying bull is NOT my idea of entertainment!

[wartyflange]

well done Massive Attack - for making your worst ever video for one of your finest ever tracks... and yes, believe it or not, this IS official. I think they need to lay off the weed for a while...ahem....

[ImDBC]

Just because you think that, does not make it official, lol.

[wartyflange]

err, maybe reading more closely before leaving pithy comments would help - I said - the VIDEO is offical, smartarse.

[Justelfe18]

Et "Viva Espana !!" ....... ces choses devraient être interdites, c'est inhumain !!

[buzzy462]

nothing against massive attack but the spanish are a cruel fucking race!!! And these bull fighters, who call them selves heroes. You all need  to be ripped apart by those bulls horns and die a very very long and painful death, you fucking scum bags. Eat shit every one of you!!!!!

[Heerdalich]

oh you little racist asshole! Study history of your race, you'll see what does it mean 'cruel'

[ImDBC]

Come on man, he's like 8 and/or has the IQ of one. It's not fair that us wiser people pick on the intellectually dysfunctional.

[Westonelm]

Their future collaboration with Burial sounds really interesting!

[DougBlackport]

I tried to put a comment on ..yesterday or day before.....and it is not here,

[canttkeep]

I wish they made one for Psyche instead ;(

[Tehnikmusik]

Psyche ownz the EP

[huzy]

i cant belive this is offical!!

[mkkno1]

I don't think so!Massive Attack would hopefully not be that strapped for cash that they couldn't make a cool video!Unlike this!

[BaronDandy]

Me parece fatal que metan toreros en el video :-(

Estoy muy decepcionado con uno de mis grupos favoritos.

NO A LA TORTURA PUBLICA DE LOS TOROS

NO MORE BULLFIGHTS OF BULLS, LETS MAKE THEM STOP

[copacolegial]

a ver, que Massive Attack incluya toreros en su video no quiere decir que apoye esa práctica...al contrario, por el contexto, parece todo lo contrario..

[xxxladyFLY2xxx]

r u sure, that it's promo vid?

[madotie]

Yes, this really is the promo for STA. Its was directed by Ballie Walsh, who directed the Blue Lines era videos.

[toronjil9]

Oh sí, mucho mejor en privado.....

[xxxladyFLY2xxx]

nntomorrow

it is MA

[xxxladyFLY2xxx]

veeeery good music

[nntomorrow]

wtf? there's no MA

[yalexander]

amen

[vaginoplastica]

relax...grandiosi!

[telecinando]

Is this the official video? Is it meant to be against bullfighting?

[occhiodelre]

i wait the concert.....only massive attack...

[ZakusDM]

this vid tickles my nerves

[Jabberwock156]

are you saying that this is the official video for the song? D:

[HarryW1234]

no.1

5*

:D
