With emimusic's decision to label Massive Attack's video for "Angel" as PRIVATE (for unknown reasons), at the cost of losing close to 1,680 comments from YouTube viewers, I managed to find an archived copy of the ENTIRE comments section for the video.
Great performence,terrible filming.Film 101-when a solo is playing,film it-when the drummer is grooving-film it-especially when lil else is goin on!Miss those bands like them,portishead,morcheeba,etc..U dont see that kinda fusion much anymore.Its there but few & far between.
@Marifun4ik lol That image looks even worse ten years later, when Horace Andy grows out a greying beard, but still retains his high voice. It's funny, but at the same time, kinda awkward. Even so, the song is still awesome live. 8)
For everyone saying Mushroom isn't doing anything: He's playing an instrument used to make the clicking sounds (sound effects) throughout the song. Just watch his hands (i.e. 3:03) :-)
Amazing. The bass plays two notes the whole song and the drum beat is as easy as shit but somehow they create this deep, intense groove. Fucking awesome
this is, what I think, too... Its so fucking easy to play, but its the deep indescribable sound, what makes you feel well and calm. Its so awesome, that.... argh, i dont know. Its only pretty cool!
Hello all, my french is not brilliant but I can say that it's le Marvin Gaye de reggae that he says...the Marvin Gaye of reggae. Where do they come up with these notions? Perhaps he likes to frock up too!
"Massive Attack vient de sortir son 5ième album. Je dis "viens" car à ce jour, du groupe d'origine, il ne reste plus qu'un membre fondateur: 3D. En 1991 à la sortie de Blue Lines, leur premier album, ils sont 4: 3D, Daddy G, Mushroom et Tricky. Créant ce que la presse va baptiser le Trip hop. Sans le savoir ils viennent de lancer un nouveau courant musical. Leur musique est basée sur des nappes de Soul urbaine, mélancolique, qui s'électrifie sur des guitares post-Punk
et se came sur des Dub purs de Jamaïque. Le groupe fonctionne avec une géométrie variable et s'appuie sur des chanteuses occasionnelles comme Shara Nelson, Nicolette, Liz Fraser et de chanteurs récurants comme Horace Andy, le Marvin Gaye du Reggae. On le retrouve au chant pour le titre Angel lors de la sortie de Mezzanine.
the best movie that used this song ad to be "Snatch" with Benicio Del Torro and Brad pitt...it was used when bricktop smashed the casino and burned bradd pitts mom alive.....
Awesome song, but regardless they should've had a girl sing this. It's almost like Air in "Cherry Blossom Girl", but at least they use a machine to make their voices sound like that. Sorry...

If you know real METAL you WOULD KNOW REAL MUSIC...just because you have MUDVAIN in your favs, doesn't mean you know REAl MUSIC......FAG!!Speckin English..ALDOLP>>>
fuck's sake. everyone reckons there's such a thing as real/fake good/bad music. all music is real and good. it's just a matter of taste if you think otherwise.
Your joking right?...the band butchers it just by the singer alone....Stick to your screaming metal and leave the REAL MUSIC STAND ALONE....covers are just that...covers..
vocals a little rough in some places, I also love how the camera kept zooming in on the guitarist when he wasn't even playing anything. Awesome job by drums and bass, love the guitar solos too.
Ciao a tutti! Lo sapevate che i Massive Attack faranno una data in italia nel 2008? Il 20 Luglio saranno a Piazzola sul Brenta (Padova). Alle 21.30 all'Anfiteatro Camerini!! E' un concerto a cui andrò sicuramente, qualcuno si vuole aggregare?
Horace Andy has taken part in other songs, Such as from blue lines in Five man army and One love, he also did a cover of relight my fire on the protection album and Spying glass, On mezzanine he performs the lyrics to Man next door, He is a great artist LOVING IT ALSO :)
For real man? I've never heard a man sing like that other than Claudio Sanchez.. well just a bit I guess. Horace Andy use to have dreads but he is bald now. I saw on Wiki that he practiced Rasta and they don't really shave. Oh well. He is defintely unique.
EPIC
