First time i listened to this song i was riding my bike on a parkway peaking on an acid trip with a friend. It was extremely enjoyable until the final part started... It's almost a mantra... Don't really have to tell you guys how special this song been since then, do i? :)
Note to AVfoundry: The video you made for this is nothing short of genious, in my opinion. It is abstract yet subliminal, which is how i perceive most of massive attack's songs.
From 5.30 it's pure heaven. I just finished a screenplay with this music in mind for the very end. Imagine scubadivers swimming in the middle of a school of jellyfish, sunrays shining through. Very halucinating. If there is a movie named 'Rendez-vous in Yonaguni' in 2012 you know it's the one I wrote.
What a composition this is! At 5.30 onwards its just one of the most awe inspiring things I've ever heard!!!! I'm going to see them in september and I'm as excited as a child on Christmas day.
I agree..it's all beautiful but at 5.30 it climaxes into something other wordly. I'm seeing them in two days time!!!! loved them for 19 years and still going strong.
surreal and yet so real the thruth is we live in a fucked up world let us deal with it multiple orgasms a fantastic climax awesome that let us deliver ourselves from the policies of boredom
I DK why they chose "Group 4" Maybe they were just stoned when they made it...You know sounds like thier could be four people in the song MC, singer, Beatman and the.....um ...fuck Yeah they were just stoned
Group 4 is the largest Security company in the world, now known as Group 4 Securicor.
The references to Cameras, self defence, hardening, locks, and keys, have connections to the security industry. Not sure what it means from the original perspective.
*sigh.. i still wish that the last few minutes of the song were a whole song on its own instead of just the climax of this one.. allthough i love the whole song.. i mostly skip to the last bit xD
@EmpresSilvia This is the case with the live version of the song. The climax is longer than the rest of the song, and it keeps increasing tempo until it explodes into a mindblowing frenzy blitzkrieg. I recommend checking out the 1998 live version at the Royal Albert Hall.
Ive been watching this video again, after I discovered it last year, and just wanted to say it its still amazing. When I was rolling last week I somehow seemed to be able to grasp the story behind it (if there is any), but that was most likely the drugs doing it's work!
It does leave me with some sort of depressed/angryish vibe, but I also think that's one of its strengths. It's a powerful piece of work!
This is fuckin amazing. I watchen this vid while I was friggin' off the charts, that stoned was I, and I didn't came back the morning after. That stonded was I when I watched this vid and it was A - MA - ZING!!!
I recommend every true smoker to this video! It's really perfect to those that are perfectly stoned. THIS IS A SONG FOR STONERS!!!!! IMO anyway :P
the last few minutes excites my crotch region

Massive Attack, if I were to be held in a 6*6 spot and played a certain genre and/or musician, I'd request them.

@BrittyBamz The camera skills are pretty shaky, but Im pretty sure that if someone were to get high and watch this, it would be trippy and awesome.

Oh yeah man!
When they get the repeatage stuff going with the guitar etc, it's just plain awesome!
I love atmospheric stuff, and Massive Attack delivers just that!
I'm a Bristolian as well, so it makes it just that extra little bit special! :-)
