I've been to see Portishead about 2 months ago, they never played in my country so I went to a festival nearby my country, it was tremendous, just a shame that the orchestra didn't come. But despite that it's more than an honour to hear her voice and her new album - I don't have words to describe such a masterpiece!
This song takes OVER me. What I love about about their eponymous album is that it's the album where Beth Gibbons plays around most with her voice, becoming a vixen, at times I feel like she channels an ill tempered child through her voice. She becomes one with the drama and violence of the music. On a lot of other tracks it's more about the beautiful contrast of Gibbons light, fragile vocals against the rough edges of the music, particularly on 'third'. I just love this band, bottom line.
this album is the first LIVE album I ever owned that I liked better than all the studio albums.....there was something in the air that day. gives me chills
Só ai mais 1 sonzaço desta nina k tem 1 estilo mais k proprio, ate inagualavel, tal como a voz...Nao conheço ninguem com tanta qualidade vocal como ela...Excelente!
I can't hold this day Anymore Understand me Anymore To tread this fantasy, openly What have I done Ooh this uncertainty, is taking me over I can't mold this stage Anymore Recognize me Anymore To tread this fantasy, openly What have I done Ooh this uncertainty, is taking me over is taking me over To tread this fantasy, openly What have I done Ooh this uncertainty, is taking me over is taking me over is taking me over
Beth has the voice of an angel....all the so called Diva's should sit up and listen. You dont need to be prancing around on stage half naked shaking your ass. Beth's the real deal. :o) She lets her voice and lyrics do all the talking.
Love this strange, dark, hypnotic music. Makes me want to turn off all of the lights and dance around naked with a cigarette while standing in front of the picture window in my living room.
I've been a fan of Portishead since Dummy first dropped. I still listen to them quite often, but have never had a chance to see them live. Thumbs up for great vid, and another for convincing me to catch their show if they ever tour again.

@misspetedoherty This is why I adore the power of music. True art does not tell you exactly what your supposed to see or hear. It draws you in & provokes your own thoughts, inspires your own emotions when relating to it. In this case the lyrics are mysterious in what the singer is referring to. She is in pursuit of the fantasy yet the fear of the unknown consumes her with doubt in her choice. Still she refuses to go back to the life and person she was, she can't recognise herself in the past.
the funny thing is this group comes out with an album every 10 years thats a long gap they make good music from the soul not music that a greedy record company rushes to make.
it's pretty wild that they are so good live. Most musicians sound better in the studio, but they REALLY come alive on stage and to blend hiphop, rock/jazz and orchestral music. Very impressive.
BIG...Love This tune UK Bristol girl representing... nuff prop's 90s kicks arse... New skool need to cum correct! Period.. Markers have been set an none ov yar ar cuttin it.. 'Sour Times' say's it all...one
totally agree man ...if we think , they mix the contemporany efects , like beats and vinyl , with violins and guitar solos , of course with an AMAZING voice
This has been my favorite P song since a Danish friend introduced them to me over ten years ago. The Roseland version is actually better than the studio version IMHO. The simplicity of the guitar hook, that odd drum beat, and Portishead's unique approach to scratching (which is, sadly, completely absent on the Third album) all combine to make a truly amazing song. Beth's voice carries this song into the stratosphere.
This is more than a performance of one song, it's a brief three act play. She starts with her vulnerable side, then the snare ignites her sinister defiant self that we see so much in the second album, then finally she brings forth her most emotional, most personal appeal.
I beat the gravity while listening to this song.
This song is another drop in the ocean of Portishead's ingenuity.
