  • Massive Attack is amazing! I have been a fan for over 10 years! It never gets old listening to these songs.

  • @cjh444  hello

  • that kid at the start looked like eazy e...this song will never get old

  • timeless classic

  • If it was Mushroom, I doub't he have been following on foot, more like driving that loud arsed Aston of his :)

  • Funky street hop juxtaposed with Shara Nelson's painfully soulful vocals. Still have the original 12" at a friend's. Thanks

    to 2nd Avenue in Portland for all the wondrous wax.

  • i always think about america when i hear this song..

    and i live in holland haha

  • it Sounds like 90's, amazing. I love it,

  • sick

  • from 3:07 to 4:12 look at those 2 guys following her....i swear thats 3D and Mushroom

    look closely at them

  • Seriously one of the most beautiful songs ever written. Instant classic.

    How did MA feel lsitening to this song finished for the first time?? A moment close to God no doubt!

  • I never paid attention to the lyric.

    I imagine it is wonderful.

    But I tell you just by the melody,

    It's one of the best sound ever.

    Forever.

  • AWESOME ...........

  • One of the best

  • 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!

  • No, It's Massive Attack in the States as well.

  • 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

  • I've never ever heard it called that..........and I'm in the military and I was an adult when this song came out. Ever

  • well its true ask uhrich1972 down there...anyhow nice bit of trivia for you all ;)

  • @aaronUK2006 i have no idea how it hasn't

    love this :)

  • How has this tune NOT got a million views yet??????????

  • beautiful

  • It is indeed beautiful

  • Sound and beats ahead if it's time. Enough said.

  • its a mason video

  • This song is so AMAZING.

  • Timeless Classic, people.

  • It's true; how CAN you have a day without a night?

  • Love it! :)

  • Storico pianosequenza di oltre 5 minuti: da pelle d'oca.

    Per la serie: i video di una volta.

    grandi!|

  • i understand them perfectly fine and im mexican

  • yeah....this is awesome/...**********

  • why is it i have a hard time hearing or understanding any of these guys lyrics in any songs they have done?

  • listen and learn the native tongue of Bristol, home

    of Trip Hop !

  • <3 Trip Hop. Those who like Trip Hop should definitely listen to Portishead, Blue Foundation,Sneakerpimps(1st album) and Bitter:Sweet.

  • are you British or American ?

  • Same here. I love the music Massive attack Produced, but most of them don't make sense to me, either. :S

  • I LOVE THIS SONG SOOOOOOOO MUCH !!!

  • the guy with no legs on the skateboard is a mugger,how low can you get!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

  • best song, ever shara nelson ftw

  • Timeless, the song, the vid.

    I'm wondering if the shop at the start of the vid is still there... ;-)

  • love this dont know why

  • good times

  • You just loose yourself to this sound

  • so beautiful <3

    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

    Thank You :) <3

  • how high are you

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

    Hope that helps!

  • 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

  • Incredible!!!

  • It's addictive!!!

    i can't stop listening to it....

    it's just such a great song and the smple video clip really works well with it,

    massive attack are awesome.

  • Oh yeah. Hit replay like seventeen times. ...

    Freaking love this song.

  • This Song is the BUSINESS! I love the strings at the end they're epic.

  • unfinished love.....thanks to massive attack for that great music...

  • Are there any songs similar to this one?

  • Portishead, Glory Box

  • I miss the 90's. Music like this is hidden now and days. This song will always be amazing.

  • @ACEMontague Yes i agree .Hidden under the vast pile of shite that is simon cowell et all.Shame really.

  • She reminds me of myself, especially the way she walks, that's the way I walk.

  • 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.
