Tricky - Makes Me Wanna Die

[missielovelie]

tricky's voice always sounds like hes been on the herbs!

[Aelliotb]

One of my favourite songs along with 'I talk to the wind' by King Crimson, 'A Warm Place' by Nine Inch Nails.

[kamillcpn]

I like too these three songs! ! ! But KC is on the top ;)

[avedic]

regardless of the TRUE(whatever) content of the song. the feel most certainly replicates the feeling of a really good marijuana high. that connected to the senses laid back surreal happy yet aware feeling.

[emptyBEERcans]

- Who do you think you are?

> You're insignificant

> A small piece, an ism

> No more no less

- You try to learn the Universe

> Can't even converse in uni-verse

> You know it's ironic

> Smoking hydroponic

:'(

[thekylies]

this is one of my favorite songs.

(L) !!

[Levana44]

Thank you, It was my favourite song, but never knew who sang it. Then I went to Manch last Sunday to see Massive Attack and she was there too..What a beautiful voice

[Levana44]

Is this Martina TB??

[Jabberwock156]

yup

[kuarkik]

yes

[julianajuliana]

This was my favorite back in 1998... and still rock my socks..!

[cmj2099]

And he was in the back of a car - not driving.

[cmj2099]

Anyone remember the song, about 10 years ago, by Tricky where in the video he's riding in a car ( think for the whole video)? ? Can't find it.

[aliaemar22]

money greedy comes to mind.not the whole video,but he's riding in a car quite a lot there.

[bashthebandello]

Tricky (Broken Homes) thats the name of the song!

[deliibrahim19]

money greedy.

on my channel of course....

;)

[callasexperience]

come on guys i play the guitar on that but I had no idea what martina was signing about it felt like love and hate between a man and a woman

[britneybaby89]

just heard this for the first time in the Replacement killer.. I loved it

[byronairfun]

I was big fan of this song when it was on The Replacement Killer, great song and movie.

[droppedsoap]

what a powerful song. such a punch in the gut, this is so strong, like whiskey. i love tricky

[Gixer66]

There are a few "perfect" songs out there. For me... this is one of them. I love it...

you know it's ironic...

and smokin hydroponic...

[emili0josE]

Un temazo, un temazo! Tal vez o mellor de Tricky.

[Redstar309Z]

bout rox  and the babylon condition ?innit?

P.M.T...hard tymes

[Hajalin]

Pretty sure it's about Catholicism, I think this song is basically about the things that religion puts in ones mind. But I have no clue where the Hydroponics comes in lol.

[autte]

You know it's ironic

Smoking hydroponic..

i think it's about weed

[Hajalin]

What about the rest of the lyrics.

[breyenz]

Mary...Jane:)

[Masterpeewee]

for me the weed part is more less the same as drinking, trying to feel something else or something, i've never smoked though. Its not the theme of the song

[CampHeadFirePhase]

Absolutely love this song, so different to anything in the mainstream, its just so real. Martina has some voice on her. Tricky and her seem to be telepathic in their thoughts.

People with bi Egos should listen to this:

"Who do you think you are? You're insignificant, a small piece, an ism, no more, no less."

Shed your ego, don't worry about what others think, look inwards not outwards, be yourself, stay happy.

[dymfoning]

Wanna listen to this song over and over.

Great video!

[robyllanes78]

i saw tricky live when he toured with tool!!! he had everybody amazed at his sound!!!

TRICKY!!! IZ DA SHIT!!!

[tragicallyelite]

I adore Tricky. This song is so damn sexy.

[greatchrisS]

love this group wish u could find them on limewire

[goreobsessedgirl]

Tricky isn't a "group."

[adrianteh]

ive watched this a million and 8 times and still lovin' it!!

[tucute4u2tuch]

I love love this song so much.  I have been listening to tricky for years. His music moves me in so many ways, glad an ex gave me at least this. lol

[electronicmilkman]

[leunderground]

[kubarules]

[miztli77]

oo forgot 07!!! one of my personal favs!!

[petermurphreak]

This is such a fucking amazing song.... the kind I'd be playing if I was licking "red wine" off my Peter Murphy-clone as he laid tied up in my bed, and I was smoking some great stuff ( like fucking "White Widow"!!!).... It'd certainly be a fucking "out body experience"....

[jaketea98]

i always catch myself singing this song

[koifishy02]

[robdazombie555]

[dishdolli]

[sean1er]

[Masterpeewee]

makes the pain sound so good. so sad at the same time. amazing

[wiseblood90]

its just so beautiful, love the big 3 from bristol , tricky, massive attack and portished

[igehring]

delicious toes she has

[infamystar]

why is embedded disabled? wtf?

[Miyuki4president]

I thought Tricky was the girl in the video XD so is he a musician? or a dj or something? and does the girl always collaborate with him?

I really love this song...

[Miyuki4president]

thank you ^^ oh what a pity they no longer work together!

[aaalchemy]

really great song...just as nice as when it came out!

[sonicjay007]

she sure did...

[callasexperience]

I play the guitar on that track but I never understood the meaning of the poem because I am french.. tricky wrote them in a few minutes in the studio just before recording as he usually

[olmo123lke]

Thank you for the answer. I was not sure. In spanish the suffix is "-ismo", and as a word it refers to the vanguardist art movements, like dadaism, surrealism, futurism, etc...

[CCarmen]

his best IMO.

[olmo123lke]

Muy buena. what is an ism?

[AnotherWorld82]

Many isms are defined as an act or practice by some, while also being defined as the doctrine or philosophy behind the act or practice by others. Examples include activism, ageism, altruism, despotism, elitism, optimism, racism, sexism, terrorism, truantism, and weightism.

[Megara]

Omg I was always under the impression this song was by Massive Attack?? Oops!

[JiggersGenius]

This reminds me of Protection by Massive Attack, somehow. They're both gorgeous and they kind of feel like cosmopolitan angst.

[MyhEadiSnOtRight]

In a little bit, this reminds me of the music video for nine inch nails' closer.

Wich is a high complement in my opinion.

[TearDropCatcher]

I want to drown in it.

[valjham]

Increible la canción.

[Formulastreet]

ur a fag.

[MillionInChange]

Love you tricky. Since 1995. check me out. Search millioninchange at myspace music. much love. I used to be a tricky kid, I live the life they wish they did...

[HaloedG]

This song is such a beautiful piece of slow-motion chaos.

[nepta00]

Devastating. The beauty.

[gayspoon]

is this the version on the album?

[AnotherWorld82]

Yeah this is the album version

[indecisiveassasin]

The woman who directed this video directed The Beautiful People by Marilyn Manson.

[dethspud]

Trippy, timeless, tune.

"You try to learn the Universe

Can't even converse in uni-verse"

Luffs it.

Be Well.

[callasexperience]

the guitar was composed and recorded in about 5mn as a last idea before we left the studio at 2am as for the lyrics tricky wrote them in the studio one day before

[ledzeppelinsucks]

donairs rule

[rayek4eq]

Was this written about a particular person *coughBjörkcough* ?

[Cristoinho]

No, this was writen for his mum

[sonicjay007]

in 'summer 1998' this was the sad soundtrack to my shortlived time with that bohemian strange girl...after she almost did "make me wanna die"..she said.. "you get what you give"..

[THExBENJ]

Benji was here o_O

[millianne55]

90's i miss ya!

[ralphinioresurrected]

No better song has ever been written about skunk psychosis. Absolutely sublime.

[ramzyutd]

didn't mean to give ya a thumbs down, pressed by acc, 3 thumbs up. Here's a bet, smoke a spliff and listen to this on ya stereo, if you don't feel sad or trippy by the end...you can stay in my house for the day, i'll sleep in the garden with the dog

[ilta]

it's a love song to weed, right?

[KnowleWestBoy]

vrai artiste,pas la merde formatée qu'on nous sert chaque jours,titre tout simplement fantastique

[molinasantander]

I miss the 90's.

[keepitthai]

me too!!

[Cristoinho]

Me too...

[ibindundaia]

[Slippy1979]

only the music, and only some of it.

[toolekk]

[AutomaticTLC]

I miss Martina + Tricky.

[Dambizarre]

I love Martina's voice

[idigmusicalsequels]

[paulitoTUgato]

[TukenNuken]

This song makes me wanna live

[dogmiagy]

!!!!

[eXowomb]

you're saying drugs is bad?? preposterous.

[plutoohno]

you listened to a tricky song and expected NOT to find marijuana references?

are you kidding?

[JonnyRPW]

Yur an idiot.

Music drugs have gone hand in hand for years.. All the golden oldies a drug fueled trip outs. Floyd, The Stones, Marley, etc.

SHUT UP! Lookin for a new reason to not like music just so u can be different.. Gayer..

[PhouFoo]

ahahah ... so go fcuk yourself!

[davekpo]

try to live.

and you'll find 'drugs' eveywhere

[KennyIsMyDog]

you live in harsh reality while we swim about the nectar of a sweet parallel feeling, drugs and music are my roots

[RodCauciuc]

this song is simply awesome..it brings along a lot of emotions..feeling..great song :x

[AnotherWorld82]

I just uploaded the Tricky documentary, check my channel.

[grungeholtie]

What a song! She really does have an awesome voice!

... there's a girl thats certainly making me wanna die at the moment!

[fdlygremlin]

Can someone explain the lyrics? Thks.

[ellii737]

wow

[callasexperience]

The guitar tab is available from myself so contact me if you cant work out the guitar, I have bad dream and vent too

[hulkster26]

peace and love, thx whoever you are xxxx

[SamOConner]

Martina have a beautiful voice!

[Nora1989Nora]

I love this song!!!!!

[callasexperience]

well I guess not everyone will like it because it is a jam between a voice and a minimal guitar That song has never been finished recording in fact the guitarist looses it at the end it is a very rough demo versionsavEd by the great voice of MARTINA Demos are rarely released

[tiptbfw]

I am sorry, but I can't understand anyone who doesn't like this song. Her voice is way too inspiring and still to this day has not lost it's sizzle.

[tetraxiphos]

This song is absolutely terrible. The words are just awful. What a waste of two minutes (didn't make it till the end).

[richragsdale]

floria is my hero

[schwarzeherz23]

Ahh... sweet memories from the 90's, when music was ACTUALLY GOOD !!!

[drugstoremarc]

DAMN right

[bobble500]

makes me wanna cry

[callasexperience]

well it only costed tricky 500 000 Dollars in 1996 for this video but the poems video costed 150 Dollars

[Joefonzgoldenarms]

when i was between 9th/10th grades my gf of 2 months whom i had loved since 1st site, her grandmother, (who she was staying w/ for the summer/moving in w/ to go to school w/ me so we could be 2gether) suddenly died and my love had to go back to north carolina with her mom, i came upon this video very late the night she left while i was up late crying my eyes out, song stuck in my head 4 about a month, now i get a weird almost nice nostalgia from it, at the time it hurt + i really wanted 2 die

[plaidmc]

It happens to the best of us..just lost my other of 8 years...i feel for ya. look at the bright side, you'll be broken again at least 3 more times by the time your my age...but its worth it

[Zerumanner]

in loop for ages

[bigcyhutch]

Perfect album, when artists still ruled, not the pop factory we have today. Tricky is true.

[televene]

The 90's, the 90's... I remember :)

I love this song and this video

Check out my other favorites in my channel, also in "My videos" section I put some of my soap operas videos, let me know what you think. Excelente video

Chequeate mis otros favoritos. Por cierto, si te vas a mi canal me puedes ver actuando en mis novelas, jejeje.

[HeirApparent01]

Voor Joan & vrienden.

XXX

Guido

[callasexperience]

Very simple, a sampled drum loop, a low-Fi guitar and of course the superb voice of martina with tricky whispering... 4 stereo tracks in all.. mixed by Ian Caples...

[Parthoris]

Brilliant to me, calm me always down. Sensual.

[bronhi]

there's a subtle brilliance to this song

[KOERLMK]

bossra, man, I've been there.. except it was buckfast and a few spliffs.. ha, this song is truly beautiful, tricky is just pure brilliant.. :)

[peperonatadicozze]

D I S U M A N O

[callasexperience]

I only trying to help tricky as he had run out of ideas about what to do with this drum loop and voc as he could not come up with music.. with tricky I got 10 seconds to think of something and One take.....that is it all he said is: Patrice...Play something beautiful

[callasexperience]

not bad for a 2am guitar jam in a jamaican studio, on a out of tune half size guitar....

guitar god

[flankadank]

Beautiful song. Artistic video. Love it.

[gpx44]

This was on a soundtrack I can't think

of right now.

[kcutz]

Ztrip does such a sick mash up with this. werd. great post.

[LadyInsomnia41]

Wow, a Z-Trip mash on this track. Is that something I can get my hands on?

[jrem3]

this sux hard...

[gemgem368]

i like it... it touches my mind somehow.

[djoule1]

boring

[boosra]

Wait for the next time your life falls apart, grab a bottle of whiskey and a spliff, and stick this tune on.

Then you'll get it. :)

[Waxthumper]

Can't wait.

[banju111]

and you will only need three month to have a live as good again... lol...

[wonckybabe87]

there is a little bit more "hardcore" version of this tune which is extremly good

[trence5]

do mean the one from Replacement Killers? Yeah, I like that mix better

[papabear1971]

hard to define this tune..... Its beautiful at the least.. sends a gentle chill up my spine

[georgesle12]

Sublime, l'absolu génie de tricky dans toute sa splendeur !

[Bangheadda]

Ms. Topley-Bird is extremely beautiful!

[toolekk]
