Massive Attack - Babel feat. Martina Topley-Bird

[Trevmeister42]

I wanted to comment about the lack of dislikes...and then I realized that as soon as I did, someone would probably dislike the video, which would just be terrible for such a fantastic song!

[rustytheginge666]

haha never thought about the possible anagram with Heligoland and A God In Hell. Although I do believe Heligoland is also the name of a small German archipelago in the North Sea. Boring geography GO OUT AND BUY THIS INCREDIBLE ALBUM. A 21st century Dark Side of the Moon in my opinion. A bold statement which i firmly believe.

[Humandavid1]

@rustytheginge666 Why do you believe that? Just curious.

[mikedmc121]

like to say a big fuck u to mathew whos a hotel manager somewhere in blabalbla

[Hugo411]

@piperdiaz12

True . And Cover Art is written in the style of Anagram. I Wonder what that conveys?

[valou384]

Un groupe que j'adore tout comme cette chanson.Excellent !

[Hugo411]

Title is Anagram: A god in hell.

[aussieconservative]

@Neoverbal dude get the cd if you can its worth a listen. I can confirm the sound quality is balls!!!! (and balls is bad people)

[Drummafolife]

the most depressing, despotic, oppressive beat ever

[white0elephant]

@Drummafolife How do you mean ????

[br00talKidHxC]

every single person replying to @blancomusic1 don't realise that Youtube reduces the quality.. you can be all smart arse like "sounds fine here buddy" but it honestly does. Try find a HD 1080p upload of it, or buy the album.

[drawinablank23]

i thought this song was called babel

[0Mischieff0]

love that acoustic bass guitar

[Chusquienmas]

Massive Attack , a group with magic!

[MrFondueKnight]

You wanna be the one that shoots that truth to my death?

[AnRTPgA]

Massive Attack.

For ever and ever.

[hiphop1999]

Good study music, inspires creativity somehow

[dels93]

it is amazingg!

[blancomusic1]

Honestly, I can't believe how bad this song sounds on youtube. I listened to this in the car on my cd player this morning (original cd) and it is HUGE. Massive, massive drum and bass. Then I listened to it here and it sounds like nothing. All the snares and high-hat are just stripped out by the awful sound quality. Oh, that's awful. If you've only heard this song on youtube, you are missing so much.

[darkjedi327]

@blancomusic1 Listening to the song on youtube sound epic.. I can only imagine how it sounds on the original cd..

[facecheek]

@blancomusic1 idk my killer headphones sound pretty damn good.

[PoorElbe]

@blancomusic1 omg i just put it on from ipod after this.. (wondered why i was totally unexcited during the youtube play) love psyche too, it's taken me two years to really listen to this one :/

[olmecbones]

@blancomusic1 Sounds the same to me. Maybe you need to update your audio drivers.

[stev019]

@blancomusic1 I don't know what kind of sound system you have, but this sounds fantastic to me...

[FatPlus1]

@blancomusic1 Maybe your car has 5 thousand dollar cables that help smooth out and enrich the sound!

[BellTollsForThee]

@blancomusic1

The reason it might be so awful on youtube is that your car speakers are much better then you computer or laptop speakers, also youtube compression.

[TheMushrumable]

@blancomusic1 Now you made me want to hear it in your car on your cd player.

[nocturne811]

@blancomusic1 That kind of goes without saying.. We're getting (basically) free music streamed without limitation, can't be surprised that audio quality on youtube range from 60kbps to 128kbps (not to mention that being an unofficial vid, we also have to trust that the uploader used a good source and processed everything properly, before even giving youtube a chance to screw it up).

Though, I downloaded this album the moment it hit the rls scene.. and, a pc isn't the proper way to listen... :\

[supersharpshots]

@blancomusic1 It actually sounds a bit weirder (in a hallucinating way) way. So it sounds, sound as a pound to me ; )

[karapacibenny]

i love Martina Topley and masive attack too but this song really don't fit with the beauty of her voice... it's covert her voice.

[n00bs4ib0t133]

@karapacibenny sounds fine to me, bra. id understand your arguement if it were martina feat. massive attack. but this is a massive attack song. and i think her voice fits well just the way it is. it compliments the track and adds to it rather than making the song all about her.

[zooted22k]

<3 MTB.

[adamxxxy]

holy shit this is amazing

[Dianush123]

I like Martina, she has a very special voice. Massive attcak rocks! I'm going to buy this cd, it is so fucking good.

[krissmith1986]

@Dianush123

going to buy? why didn't you get it the day it came out?

[aczuczu]

darkness

[idontspeakblackanese]
