  • Realmente bueno!!!

  • I've got a totally new appreciation for Portishead from these live performances. Beth's performance and voice rules. Most importantly these lives performances really keeps her techno bandmates electronics in control. They totally go over-board on the studio cd's.

  • beth is like fuck it. i am going to sing my song the way i want to sing it, and i dont give a shit if you like it or not. right when you think this is whack, she hits you with it and it touches your inner core. you dont know whether to shit or go blind. she sees you and you cant hide. i am loving her soulful sound, and the orchestra kicks ass, i dont mind the lp scratching its clever.

  • The string arrangement in this version is really beautiful! Thanks for posting!

  • This moves my soul.

    loving dark trip hop/electronica. The darkest are prob

    Portishead, Massive Attack, Tricky, Unkle, Allflaws

  • I would kill for a HQ version of this version.

  • Oops, meant to search that. Looked em up, not really industrial....but still very nice

  • While the city sleeps rooftop

  • What would be amazing if she collaborated with Maynard J Keenan.

  • @TearsOfWar1 oh man you almost made me barf in my mouth.

  • @googlemymusic His voice goes very well with talented woman singers... I don't know why that idea would make you barf...

  • Look up "While The City Sleeps - Rooftop Dreamers", kind of similar industrial triphop techtures yet huge emotional crescendos.

  • In Love, mystifying as always.

  • I much prefer this version, adds a whole new dynamic to the song

  • САМАЯ крутая группа в своем жанре блеать

  • very creative..

  • I don't miss Amy W. so much anymore.

  • I like this song but someone should help this girl. She seems more than labile

  • Late Paleolithic

    • Homo sapiens sapiens - current type of man

    • Art (decoration of caves)

    • Evolution towards the Basque type(the white man) begins

    • Homo sapiens sapiens soon divides into the racial groups which now inhabit the earth Each group becomes the origin of the races which we now distinguish. One of them, Cro-Magnon man, evolved into the Basque group.

    • Cave of Urtiaga (Deva) Cro-Magnon cranium begins to evolve into the Basque cranium.The basque man founded and schooled europe

  • esto para mi si que es una muy buena música y la bocalista me parece hermosa

  • year & place anyone?

  • ce sont de bons musiciens,le reste ...ils st discrets

  • I guess this must be an acquired taste. I listened to several Portishead tunes and don't like any of them, Sigh. Oh well, I tried.

  • @DrummerGrrrl

    Either it hits you right or it don't , I give you super cred for giving them a day in court

  • Just epic

  • amazing beth

  • beth gibbons is perfect!

  • Hello my Jodie Foster of music,......awesome band

  • Awsome love this band got alo of ppl into them,

    And to compare is disrespectful shes totally her own style and she fits me well!!!

  • how can you people came with names like madonna and lady gaga, on this marvelous band. For not speaking that this style of music uncomparable. Different genre, diferent kinds of feelings when you listen to it. she will never be madonna, cause she will always be herself uncompared person.

  • Magnifique !

  • GREAT....greetings from italy

  • stoned!!

  • I love portishead watch?v=BvvbMjXVOzo

  • i bet it was amazing to play this with the orchestra backing up the steeze they put out. everything, so good

  • This is music, fuck the bullshit like lady gaga, justin bieber and whatever bullshit is on the radio.

  • @hellridesnorth79 really you see Lady Gaga in the Bieber bracket. I would say it apparent she undenibaly (very) talented musician and songwriter - and interesting for a pop act. Not especially to my taste - luckily I've never heard this Bieber kiddy on the radio; I'm sure his popularity is a youtube conspiracy

  • @jackjude Lady Gaga is Madonna all over again. Not original.

  • @hellridesnorth79 she will never be madonna......

  • @jonjon2034 thank goodness

  • @hellridesnorth79 You might be right, however, it has nothing to do with the song in question. I don't care what the fuck they play on the radio these days, and I don't want it to invade the responses of music videos it has absolutely nothing to do with. Stick to the topic.

  • @snakeweirdo I don't care.

  • @hellridesnorth79 I thought so.

  • I love the faces Beth makes when she sings, you can really tell she is feeling it.

  • ah, what a performance! beth just can´t be from this world. looking in her black black eyes while listening makes me feel afraid of them. why this all must go and mostly hurt so deep? they stole my soul. and I love them for it

  • watch?v=jcDKE_qLCk8

  • ℒℴνℯღƸ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒღ✿♥‿♥✿ღƸ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒღℒ­ℴνℯ

  • DOPE!!!!!!!

  • This is... INTOXICATING!!

  • perhaps the greatest female non guilty pleasure voice in music today. she could sink ships with her voice...absolutely entrancing...

  • Really like the way they are not scared to changed the tempo or feel of the song

    eg, The difference between this version and the Live in NYC

    They should also be asked to do a Bond theme as they would be perfect for it!!

  • I've been so-----looking for that sexy voice that touches me in so many spots, she does it for me...

  • i cant watch the singer, she really tortures every sound out of her.

    still.. great music

  • Lifetime fan right here.

  • The theme of my life, I definetly want Portishead played at my funerel, all their lyrics and songs genrally sum up my life...

  • I actually saw them in Dallas in the 90s. Portishead is GREAT! Don't ask me why. I think it is either something you "get" or not.

    I SAID DON'T ASK! :)

  • @thejbc1128 ... i agree with you and i have been asked by MANY people "what the hell do you see in them?!" .. you either get it or you dont....

  • That is some deep dark Dracula shit.

  • Portished always makes me think of a lost, lonely and "karmicly venomous" old lady with lots of cats...

    always loved Portished thou.. great stuff!

  • tell you something, I enjoy gardening and California is great for that, but the coincidence this afternoon goes like this : my bucket was filling with water while my Youtube playing this song and I'm mesmerized by Beth's deep emotions, my bucket filled and filled and overflowed and overflowed and guess what , a pond of emotions filled my heart. this is unbelievable performance ! brava ~~~ brava.

  • ITS SO DRAMATIC WHEN YOU LISTEN TO THEM IT MAKES YOU FANTASIZE ABOUT THE CRAZIEST SEX THINGS!

  • first time I heard these individuals, i was high on ecstasy and at my first orgy. lol

  • Ahh those were the days!

    When I first heard this tune I was on elephant tranquilzers and a Pervuvian midget was fellating me and injecting my bellend with heroin.Good times!

  • so blows my mind

  • I love how her music enraptures you into a melodic euphoric bliss.

  • meee likeeee!!!!!!!

  • i love the juxtaposition of the string instuments and the DJ -MODERN AND CLASSICAL.I can imagine drifting off to another place while listening to this track.

  • Her voice is priceless.

  • Depressed Biych naw Im just kidding I like her

  • my soul opens and closes!

  • My zipper it opens

  • It's funny how parts of this song is sampled from a hiphop producer (J Dilla), and this song is later sampled from another hiphop producer (RZA). Trip Hop & Hiphop's all about taking elements from other songs and constructing it in a way that it fit's how you see it.

  • @SlawtaProducer which dilla and rza beats?

  • @westJiant Portishead head sampled a bit of Pharcyde's "She Said Jay Dee Remix" for the original version of Over, and RZA sampled the original version of Over on the track "Kiss Of A Black Widow" featuring ODB. Sorry for the sample snitching

  • how the fuck is Dj Khaled and Akon is the featured video

  • @m7oda10q sry m8 better go in a mosq and kill some helpless ppl as usual

  • This music is pure bliss,light magic!

  • to like this music i must get OD from something first...

  • Love Portished..

    Let me sing for you youtube.

    love life Music

    Milissa Music

  • y en todos los idiomas portihead esta bien chido

  • transcedentno

  • k what the hell is with the trolls it was a good performance of a good song, if you dont like Portishead why are you here, and where the fuck did this whole poltical thing come from

  • lsd

  • Amazing...

  • -76576576584856354232

  • I know that this group has been around for a while. For some reason I have not really been interested in them until recently. I am totally in love with them!

  • me too

  • @violetsun9 you grew up

  • @violetsun9 I Feel The Same Way...

  • не знаю что вы тут пишите, но поет клево!!!

  • what a gorgeous song, and Beth just lives it! She's wonderful!

    FYI When I first looked at the comments I thought I was on the wrong page. People with fire in their belly about some political issues should use the appropriate place. This is a comment page for the music of Portishead.

  • @linnybins

    wow, you are so right THUMBS UP !!

  • cmon people cut that short and look at Beth. SHe is gorgeous man.

  • you all need to chill and enjoy the music!

  • I ll give oil to u and some fire too :/ now shut up!

    nice song :D

  • get a life. i like the trippy hip hop cafe girl ya see? what aboute the trip haha thats whats up,forget aboute the war......ive been ther'''''''''

  • she's such a torchered soul - chocolate would help

  • @roblowefan1 It's interesting that sarcastic smart-asses never know how to spell...

  • @dragmio thumbs up - I hang my head in sham

  • @dragmio I'm a sarcastic smart ass that would whoop you in a spelling bee.

  • Para acompañar la lluvia, acá en Buenos Aires jeje

  • BUENOO

  • great performer. great sont. there's nothing more to be said than this.

    leaving that aside, she seems kinda sad. it seems it's a pretty much of a price to pay for good music...

  • all great art is born of suffering...

  • @IAMME000

    true

  • You know, you don't HAVE to read the comments. If you're here to enjoy the music and performance, then quit getting hung up on the twerps who are so easily entertained by flaming others.

  • holy crap ... you understand.

    nicely done.

  • goddamn youtube trolls. stop spoiling this good music with your bullshit.

  • yah , that was pretty bad, but she still sings better than Dylan

  • wow, thats just pitiful, how stoned do you need to be to enjoy that sick caterwauling?

    I hope to never find out.

  • You are funny. How unfortunate for you that your mind had closed up so long ago. I believe you can still snap out of it and turn your life around.

  • It is obvious that you are very troubled. I find it interesting that you have to make things up about people in order to defend yourself. Your planet? The extent of your delusion is extreme and telling. I hope you get better and I am not your enemy so you do not have to follow me around youtube and try to attack me. It won't do you any good. All the best. Take care of yourself.

  • Awe, such confused logic. I bet you think darkness is light and light is dark too. The true owner of something is the creator not the destroyer.

  • this? from someone who believes in the power of orgonite?

    the truly ironic part is that liberal jackasses have almost completed the total inversion of good and bad, and now cant see either.

    Hippies suck.

  • It really seems like you have an unhealthy fixation on me.

  • This isnt an argument, its just a barrage of abuse! You know, theres a name for this kind of thing: its called the ad hominem attack. It means attacking the man, not his argument. Its invariably brought into play when facts and reason have been shown to be not on your side and youre rather angry about it. If you dont like being told to pack your bags and move to a totalitarian state, then stop being totalitarian and stop telling other people to pack their bags!

  • @msqtube he is taking AMERICAN buisniss and making it state owned, so why dont you go cry to israel you bong

  • what?

    what does Israel have to do with anything?

    are you one of those worthless hippies that automatically blames everything on Jews? ... dunno and don't care. eat dust

  • @msqtube

    what ever its all over for evryone anyway

    ignorance is bliss

  • then this is heaven

  • I did not know that mate, absolutely fascinating!

  • @icecreaman42013 well said! is that a quote ?

  • What kind of bitter, twisted individual comes on a site just to insult other people's tastes in music? I sometimes wonder, I really do. How would you feel if. your kind of music was called the pits and anyone who likes it sick and stoned? What's wrong with you, msqtube?

  • Hippies is what wrong with you? Is that an illness? I've not heard of it but listen, take it easy buddy, lie down, put on some C&W, you know, 'American Pie', that sort of thing, switch on the radio from time to time, hear how the troops are doing in Afghanistan...no, lie down, don't get up yet, you're not well, here rip up this article by Castro...oh no, Chavez, my mistake, it'll make you feel better...Nurse, what we.gonna do with this guy?

  • again, I think you need to find a friend in real life and spend some times with them.

  • thats pretty much my estimation of you so,...... "I know you are but what am I?"

    I went to your utube page and it instantly became obvious that either you are making it up or that you are insane , complete with religious delusions.

    I hope I never think of you again and that you own personal hell will contract until you can see you cage. then you can clean up and join reality.

  • Awe, how sweet of you. I hope you are able to free yourself from the thought of me too. It's amazing how much you love to spew hatred. I hope you grow up soon. Bye....

  • Quit talking bullshit. Get your closed mind out of here, please. We don't really want it. Stop hating and smoke a bowl. Hippie > you. By the way, I am one. =). Deal with it. Trolls are usually extra fail. It's okay, I'm pretty fail myself, just not on your level. So come chase me with a stick and expect your rectum to be prolapsed.

  • OH yeah! I forgot. I love you. <3.

  • still the best band i've never seen was at glastonbury 95 a huge crowd and a small tent could'nt c the stage but us crowd all danced as one hhmmmmm

  • superb song. i love u so much

  • RZA - Kiss of the Black Widow

  • What does RZA have to do with Portishead? Let me know

  • in the aforementioned track from RZA and ODB, the refrain "Over" is sampled in the background :)

  • Not much, he sampled this song.

  • HI again icecreamboy, made another hippie cry for you last night. .. Its amazing how emotional filthy stoners are. must come from laying around stoned all day.

  • Awe your thinking of me? That's weird cuz I don't know you? I don't know what I did to consume your time and effort. Why don't you take your mind back and use it for yourself. I don't want or need it.

  • I guess all that weed wrecked your memory. .. I pity you.

  • Ubutu Mawengwe

  • Oh my dear god in heaven its the type of music i dream of its all encompassing ....

    and i think if i ever met that singer i would sit at her feet and wait for further instruction

  • Ditto! Beth is unbelievable!

  • Beth,

    Do you know what 2 + 2 is? Is it 4?

  • This sounds like the popular beat combo, Portishead.

  • cuando escuxo sus canciones me olvido del mundo y de las cosas que ocurren alrrededor... la musica te absorve

  • i love this group ,because is soo deep and makes me fly. But is to depretioned too .

  • this is a different key than they album version

  • Idd, where can we find this version? do you know?

  • stunning and original

  • Portishead hits a special nerve that no other music can hit.

  • try tool !
