  • i love love love this song ....

  • ლ(ಠ益ಠ)ლ Y U NO- No need to do that on this one :)

  • I can't believe you people don't know who Horace Andy is...or that you thought he was a woman.

  • what an epic performance :O

  • In the 21st second of this vid, I see him doing a freemasonry symbol... Interesting!

  • I love me some Massive Attack.

  • it s so awesome! i wonder why they dont do it this great on their albums.

  • Fantastic.....2:06!....holy shit!

  • Ohhhh Man the singer is a DUDE!?!Q?? Oh Man man super weirdness!

  • @NILBOG13 yep, hes on a shitload of their albums, pretty much like their go to guest for every album.

  • @NILBOG13 ? That is just not any dude! THAT is HORACE ANDY... SUPER BAD ASS RASTA from JAMAICA MON... listen and learn!

  • Heard this song on the pilot of Person of Interest. Being that it already had Ben Linus and Jesus, it's funny how this was the thing that absolutely made it for me.

  • best

  • spoiler alert ... the girls a dude !!!! (voice wise)

    noooooooooooooooo

  • Never heard a song that I could both and kill and fuck to till now.

  • If I could trade my soul to be able to sing it exactly like Horace, I would not think a second.

  • Hoooo fuck!!!!!!!!! Massive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Je.Sus.Christ

  • im in love with this song,makes me wanna get naked

  • Who was the original female vocalist for this song?

  • @Jeorney there was no female vocalist. This is the vocalist you are hearing.

    

  • Comment removed

  • i would never think in a million years that's the dude who's singing by the voice lol

  • Production on this is mental.

  • I love the original version, but the guitar on this mix is just soul-shivering. Fantastic stuff.

  • @Andreus I literally got bumps everywhere when it went in.

  • "you are NOT my angel" (Justin Bieber)

  • Amazing seeing horace perform live

  • 3 idiots

  • inspiration i get of that song damn

  • i have never heard a better song than this

  • I never understood, what does Del Naja or Daddy G do during songs they dont sing on? Are they playing and I dont see them, or do they just leave the stage? regardless of whether or not this was when Daddy G was with the group

  • @ProfQ For the songs they don't sing on, 3D and Daddy G seem to be enjoying their high, grooving out, and doing stuff w/ synthesizers and DJ equipment. At least that is what they appeared to be doing when I saw them in Chicago last year. Also, Daddy G (aka Grant Marshall) has always been in the group...he was one of the founders, and he has been making music w/ Robert Del Naja since they were performing as The Wild Bunch with Mushroom in the late '80s before they became Massive Attack.

  • @44Smclaren yeah but he left for a long while, like during the 100 Windows period

  • Damn this song is amazing.

  • Ya he he really comes from another World, FourhtWorld..........

  • What IS he wearing !? Did he stop in for the performance on his way from Iraq?! Great performance though

  • Just Great!

  • I whish I could be your angel

  • This has to be one of my all time favorite tunes.... its just amazing.

  • Is that Horace Andy?

  • @GauldyTrebeach yes, he sings on almost every album. what a voice... met him at the LA show and almost lost my shit. he's brilliant.

  • @GauldyTrebeach yes !

  • Perriwinkle blue

  • @mooseasaurusrex Ah, Santch. Excellent movie and the moment where this song played was top notch.

  • A quién podría no gustarle éste video!!????!!!! Es simplemente hermoso!!!! Horace Andy ES hermoso!!!! Su voz as well!!!

  • @KameaSaturni Tu me caiste bien por tu comentario hahaha Suerte

  • I don't know much about electronic music but I love this song and especially this version. I'm going to show this to the guys in my garage band and see if they don't want to cover it.

  • I thought this was a girl singing! WTF!

  • the voice match with me music, its like an angel

  • teh voice match wih music....

  • Amazing song and band!

  • UFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!! TRANSPORTING!!!!!!!!!!

  • No comment best band live

  • Luv

    M A <3<3

  • i was pretty sure that this song is sang by a woman. i know i'm drongo :<

  • as much as i love this song and performance, i just cant wrap my head around the live dynamic of massive attack. in a couple shots here it looks like 3D and daddy g are just creepin behind a window, watching the no name musicians play. if they dont play any instruments and just creep in the back unless they're rapping, why does the name massive attack not include session and live musicians then?

  • @lazer59882 because Del Naja and Marshall produce everything

  • I like this one better than the original. Don't know why. I just do.

  • @ujwalaraj Same here. I guess the sound is warmer because the cd production is very very fine so it's more chrystal clear where this live version is raw ,)

  • yoooooouuuuuu are my angeellllll this song is the meaning of beauty

  • I remember years ago when I first heard this song and didn't know much about the band, I imagined the singer of this song as like, a bald black middle aged woman.... This dude has an amazing voice.

  • @DOGxDAYxSONxRISE His name is Horace Andy, I believe

  • @DOGxDAYxSONxRISE He sings like an angel,i feel ya tho

  • Fuck Beiber, Fuck Gaga... Fuck pop music! These guys aren't bad, but not my cup of tea... I love me some trance music, but this just doesn't quite hit the spot for me. Bring on some Blutech or some Ott... better yet some jam bands! XD Then again... listen to the end... this song is pretty badass!

  • FELLOW MASSIVE ATTACK ANGEL VIDEO FANS:

    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.

  • this song has something dark i love it massive attack rulez

  • I truly recommend seeing them live if you get a chance too. It was like nothing I had ever seen before.

  • That is one of the best examples of minimal, powerful guitar playing I have ever heard.

  • Woah. I always thought it was a chick singing. Rock on!

  • I can seriously think of like fifty movie scenes that this song would go great with. P.S. I didn't think an old rasta guy sang this!!! Ok I don't know if he's old.

  • the emotions i feel from this video just incredible such soul

  • if james cameron ever makes a Battle Angel Alita movie he needs to have the seen where it flashes back to Alita as a child being forced to walk with her friend across a mine field and have this song playing. seriously.
