The best classic dance record of all time. It was there first and will always be the starting point for everything that came after. This is the donkey's bollocks!
i love this song and always have. its probably my all time fave.i would like to hear an updated remix tho. it deserve's it so much now nearly 20 years on. but it must be done properly in my opinion by someone like high contrast, influx uk or the mighty ray keith!!
why dont sad youtube let me post when i spend half hour typing responses??

classic video i could never forget although i forgot the song, was asking everyone "whats that song with the black woman walking down the street in the ghetto?" and singing one line of the melody. soooo glad i found it.
Only 800k hits, how insane is that? While the little Beiber bopper gets 100's of millions, this song will stand out long after he has come and gone, just has so much heart and soul.
cor blimey...theres a few tunes that can bring a tear to my eye..and this is definately one of them...the irony is, im in bristol where this band is located....massive attack (or massive in the states, due to the war) FTW!
It was "Massive" here for a very, VERY short time. If you mentioned it now, most people probably wouldn't even remember them being called that. And you are right...FTW. Regardless of what our government does, most citizens here don't want the war and think it's bullshit. A government of the people, by the people and for the people? My ass!
it didnt use to be during the gulf war, hence me bringing it up..during the war it was deemed too offensive so they had to change it just to 'massive'
I dont doubt that now that they got their heads outta their arses its reverted back...typical yanks
quick question, because I am honestly wondering, can piano be considered "strings" since those are what are actually making the sounds? Cream794 made me think of it with their quote re "I love the strings at the end they're epic". I do understand what are normally considered "strings", violin, etc
dude lay off the green.. or atleast do it and soak up some information at the same time.. piano IS percussion.. strings are bowed or plucked the piona is struck by hammers covered in felt... and this mechanism took about a 100 years to develope properly, if you go to the music section of the museum in Munich you can see this.. or do an online search.. hope this prevents any major sweat beads forming on the brow
brillant tune. 90s house/dance/rnb/etc.... sound alot better when left alone.too much remixing and sampling by djs ruining tunes,trying to make them their own.well done massive attack song still sounds great.
I'm almost shocked to discover, nearly 20 years after, that this brilliant and famous song came from a British band and not from an obscure hip-hop black group from Los Angeles!
i only excpect that s. nelson have a full bojetive mind, meanwhile da record of that video, ( so, ah, the persons & actors that appears, in dat video , are more real that my life, so...). i just dont know what to say, only that when i was () in da 91 i was an estuopidous kid, & im still bein da same

The piano is actually considered a percussive instrument, since what's making the sound is actually the *hitting* of the strings.
