  • Ear orgasm

  • @drayzej8 eargasm.)

  • Had a rough day - found out that the university made a mistake and that I didn't really graduate after all (they told me I did two months ago and printed out a copy of completion)! I need a ton more credits apparently. I listen to this and realize that at least I am not alone.

  • @adempc

    Hang in there, man.

  • @adempc

    Hang in there, man.

  • Horror.

  • My art professor showed this video to us as an example for mixing up and building connections between High and Pop Culture. Some components are found in the art video Flex of Chris Cunningham from 2000.

  • This is a very "pricey" video. =p

  • wow. portishead, chris cunningham, the pharcyde???

    god i just creamed haha little ways of getting into my little heart lol special collabs

  • delightfully creepy, Portishead's signature trait.

  • when i listen to this, it suddeny starts to smell like weed! weird...

  • man! i love Portishead!

  • I ♥ Beth Gibbons

  • 8 people have NO appreciation of REAL music...

  • MISFITS FTW !

  • I was told that this music video was filmed underwater and she was actually lip-syncing, because you apparently cannot sing underwater. Love the music video! =]

  • @t0nib0l0gna Gee. It was filmed underwater? You think? What gave it away? Was it the swimming?

  • @WhatTheFuchs Yes, the swimming, but also the unusual way their hair, the boy's shirt and his shoelaces were moving. I was also told by my film professor that this music video was influenced by an experimental film called Un Chien Andalou (An Andalusian Dog). At 0:14 the man in the apartment is shown without a mouth. Similarly in Un Chien Andalou, a man is shown without his mouth beginning at 13:00

  • Cooooollllllllllll !!!

  • my favorite Portishead song...her voice is so smooth on this track

    peep this in full screen 720p in a dark room...the later the better

  • @onomuknub

    Unfortunately, no. But believe it or not, he was very, very close to one: an adaptation of William Gibson's Neuromancer. It was confirmed abandoned in 2004. It never got past the scriptwriting stage.

    Cunningham is amazing, and he knows it. His fans want a picture that embodies him, and he wants that too. But it's been ten years since he's created anything of real substance.

    Now he's 40, and time's running out.

  • Fuck, i really feel this. Too hard.

    Kinda makes me wnna cry. =(

    xd

  • i want them desperadely in greece. i love their sounds, their music, their style, their everything

  • cuando los vídeos solían impresionarnos Nice

  • cuando los vídeos solían impresionando Nice

  • has Chris Cunningham directed any actual films? Michel Gongry and Spike Jonze obviously have. What has he done since his music video years?

  • Great song and greaaat video <3

  • I wonder how this was shot? It has to have been underwater but how does she appear to be singing normally?

    i love Chris Cunningham and Portishead, they're amazing beyond belief...

  • what a voice..

  • @aekoriginale21 hell yeah

  • i love this video!!! cunninham is god!!!

  • We suffer everyday - what is it for?!

    she is TIGHT!

  • MASTER PIECE!

  • its the first portishead I ever heard, and I still love it. just so utterly classy, yet mind blowing at the same time. then the video is just iceing

  • this song & vid giving me seizures of the good kind... @.@

  • Love it!

  • adoro essa musica 

  • Chris Cunningham's directing work combined with Beth Gibbon's voice? Sounds like a winning combo to me.

  • What happened to the original posting of this video? Sometimes the air feels as thick as this video makes it look.

  • @sullyvsearth This vid was actually filmed in an underwater tank and they just put in a background, quite impressive if u ask me..

  • This song and video are sick as hell.

  • @karelzich i love that song, i totally agree

  • I totally dig this video. some similarity to fever ray's "when i grow up" imo

  • That said, great upload, thanks ;)

  • has this video been flipped?

  • @Hazmus weird... yes, it has.

  • @appjuice21

    I believe it is to keep youtube from recognizing the video, as it would likely be removed by youtube if they could recognize it. I'm not sure how it works, or what technology is used, but flipping the video avoids a match through youtubes scanners.  If youtube finds a match that is protected, youtube takes the video down. You'll see flipped videos fairly often, actually.

  • @Hazmus what do you guys mean by flipped?

  • @wiggerleague Flipped horisontally. Left is right and vice versa.

  • @stickmister321 oh ok. yeah i didnt notice, cuz i havent seen the original in so long. i had it on my pnyc dvd, but i mostly only watch the actual concert footage, not the videos, except for the live version of wandering star. its ashame they didnt play that at roseland. :/
