Amazing song. Always been a big fan of darker Trip Hop sounds and the likes of Massive Attack, Portishead, Tricky, Unkle, DJ Krush, Amon Tobin, Allflaws
I love Massive Attack. It's very trippy and sensual. When i listen to them i close my eyes and travel somewhere else. Trip-Hop is my favourite genre, and Massive Attack is my absolute favourite band.
Liz Frazer's voice is so versatile. She is able to sing in such different styles, but still sounds unique...she's not copying any style, she's just doing a different gorgeous thing with her voice.
i love massive attack's abstract psychedelic lyrics to death, you can make anything you want from them, just close your eyes, turn your imagination on and let your thoughts go. mezzanine will have its spot in my top 5 best albums forever, the most powerful and dramatic, subtle and fragile, irredeemable and hopeless and there's no happy end.
I am rigz i guess i can relate to "best baddest bits of living" in some way. probably not in the way you had it in your life but this song is one of the best but at the same time the most hurtful memory for me
Anya Brigadina music is so evocative that you can feel the emotion linked to it each time you hear it, I hope it has become easier for you with the passing of time, but it isn't always so. No denial tho of the vibes that this tune can bring, and I still feel ..some... of them when I hear it.
Just started getting to know massive attack. The thing i love is in the main they use real drums not synth drums and it adds so much to their music for me. Great band. Exceptional videos and fantastic singers. Just beginning to get to know their work.
This is really strange. I bought this album roughly ten years ago and I have always imagined the song playing out like a black and white setting movie, but i never thought i would actually see a music video per se with this exact song depicting that very same thing. Trippy....
+Idan Levin no, i don't think i was clear. the very content that is being played i imagined when listening to this song for the very first time nearly ten years ago and i remembered it every time i played it. and now i found this video and i see the same visuals i imagined the first time in the same fashion, as if I were in some weird kind of time loop or something. that is the part i found strange.

The best song from their 1998 album title Mezzaine, this song has beautiful combinations of cords and vocals - and appropriately associated with the video - The Spy who Came in from the Cold, starring Richard Burton, circa 1962. I love the part which starts at 3:38 to 4:01.
I was sooo in love , August 2000. .. had this on repeat , CD those days. Made two of my best drawings ever.. always puts me right back there. I don't dare listening to this so often anymore.
[Liz Fraser] You're not my eater I'm not your food Love you for God Love you for the Mother Eat me In the space Within my heart Love you for God Love you for the Mother Mother fountain Or live or not at all The most level Sunken chapel Love you for God Love you for the Mother All's there to love Only love
I loved this music with an amazing film! Just adored Burton, what a voice, unforgettable. I always remember his recordings of "under milk wood" by Dylan Thomas, so beautiful and evocative.
As a kid i used to love walking over the scrubs and around wormwood, summer holidays tent city would appear on the scrubs with students from all over the globe playing music football arts crafts. and knowing Richard Burton my idol along side John Thaw also another idol did filming around there always gave me a buzz.
omg me too! Im writing a blog post about it right now and came to this song because it was the first MA song I heard when I was exploring my dads ipod. Changed my life i swear!
I see comments like yours on some of the most creative, avant-gardé & expressive songs on YT. There's this nascent mis-understanding of songs that aren't happy happy joy joy, & all this dancing around the word we're all avoiding.. "SAD". Depression is when nothing is of value to you anymore & you don't enjoy anything. Sadness is misery due to a loss & is enjoyed in many ways. It's a valid emotion, & has much beauty. In a word; Solace. It's not an illness, & should not be treated as one.
You're not my eater I'm not your food Love you for God Love you for the mother Eat me In the space Within my heart Love you for God Love you for the mother Mother fountain Only Your not at all The most black road Son kid child Love you for God Love you for the mother God stares to Marvel Only love Apparently, Ive been singing the wrong words for over 20 years.🙄Go me! 🤪
This music goes with the whacked dreams I get. There always set in industrial settings with me searching for the exit. Yeah well I said whacked. Sometimes I find the exit only to start looking for another one.
This was a great movie. One of the best. Richard Burton was awesome. I don't know why it has flied below everybody's radar. Fabulous story John le Carre
one of my all time fav tunes, I just watched that movie, brilliant. Richard Burton was a great talent, The music goes so well with the clip. Does any one know why they chose that film.?
Massive Attack are my favourite band of all time and to think that I only listened to heavy metal before ie Metallica Regards Doug Hughes Williamstown Nth Australia❤😊
This was the last song I heard just before I went to sleep, when I listened to Mezzanine the first time. Had nightmares about giant spiders for several days after for some reason. Total masterpiece, as is Black Melt, but I find this the creepier of the two. I would *not* want to be listening to this if I was walking alone in a forest.
my fav Massive Attack song, lucky me being in highschool mid 90s listening to Dj Krush, Dj Food, Dj Cam , Dj Vadim Dj Shadow, Massive Attack, Amon Tobin, Portishead, Kid Loco, The Herbalizer, Tricky, Moloko , so many less known interesting nobodie of them called trip hop
