[@phuturephunk]

Still one of the greatest outros of any album ever.

[@betablue5079]

Correct phuturephunk it can't be beaten. Coming after Elysium and with the created "sample" outro, words can't describe...

[@Golfstar17]

It’s good. But I wouldn’t even put it in top 50. Just my opinion of course. Perhaps in the top for trip-hop, but spanning other genres, I’d say Steely Dan has a solid 30 songs with more powerful outros.

[@RUBIZEN]

Im a truck driver and I was driving through Michigan in January. It was cold as fuck and there was about 2 ft. of snow on the ground. Imagine the whole world in only 3 colors: Black White and Grey! 5 hours of just fields, forest and creeks going by. Surreal as hell when Portishead is on the i pod. This song especially. No coincidence that most Portishead videos are shot in black and white huh?

[@erickcastillo398]

Silent Hill experience.

[@milesborg9812]

Amazing, Portishead is perfect solitary driving music.

[@ufinc]

RIP Shaun Atkins. Thank you for giving us the greatest sample at the end of this song, that actually never was one...

[@TheHermit72]

this is not my kind of music, but i just can't stop listening to this, i agree, what a piece of art, sometimes we have to open our heads to different things, just awesome.

[@josephbercahburnett]

I've conceived to this music...

[@joshgarrity4068]

Then that means its exactly your type of music friend

Soy fanatica de Portishead. Tuve un momento de dicha al verlos en vivo en el 2011, tengo depresión crónica y recurro a estos hermosos sonidos de Portishead aún más cuando mi existencia se torna nihilista y sin sentido, me provoca un remanzo de calma.

[@JorgeRojas-lc1cw]

Que lindo ver a beth y geoff❤. Seremos dos que nuestra existencia se torna sin sentido y por momentos nihilista. Suerte donde sea que te encuentres.

[@ElizaDay66]

It is depressing but beautiful nonetheless. I was a die-hard Portishead fan at the peak of my suicidal phase. I can only listen to them in small doses now.

[@zurisadayca1370]

También soy fanática de Portishead, tengo depresión crónica y en mis momentos más nihilistas, sin sentido me cobijo en este hermoso sonido .

[@phuturephunk]

I'm so glad I was at the age when I really started appreciating music when this dropped. So much better days..

[@JanaShute]

I was just thinking a few minutes ago that I am glad I missed a wedding to go see them when I was 16 years old. I'm in my 30's now.

[@0lemus0lent05]

Jana Shute i would miss my own wedding just to see them live

[@petestrat07]

Odds are they're divorced by now. You made the right decision.

[@AghoraNath]

Well, depressing, glad I'm a rich capitalist now, still love trip hop. Feels are underrated!

[@the2ndcoming135]

[@sincitymut]

This is what music is all about. Taking what u hear and relating it to an artistic eye. Love it!

[@catpajamas3305]

Sometimes, it's okay to be sad. Just don't let it eat you up.

[@BADchinchilla]

Or do.

[@breannabailey5698]

Thank you 💔

[@bjrnarbrathen1563]

Very difficult to relate to any of the comments below. This is poetry, this is art. The vokals are so tender and so brittle. The melody so gentle. I feel at home.

[@julietakoran8335]

i love how she sings

[@mojo76]

Dark and beautiful.

[@ainonen]

Nothing beats her voice. It sounds like heaven. Ahh.

[@ml9365]

Forgotten throes of anothers life The heart of love is their only light Faithless greeds, consolidating Holding down sweet charity With western eyes and serpents breath We lay our own conscience to rest But I'm aching at the view Yes I'm breaking at the scenes just like you They have values of a certain taste The innocent they can hardly wait To crucify, invalidating Turning to dishonesty With western eyes and serpents breath They lay their own conscience to rest But then they lie and then they dare to be Hidden heros candidly So I'm aching at the view Yes I'm breaking at the scenes just like you (I feel so cold on hookers and gin...this mess we're in!)

[@shumiel16]

Breaking at the seams.

[@mikesinclair7135]

This is one of the most beautifully haunting songs ever.... Just wish it lasted longer.... 3:13 just gets me every time

[@thisisme54]

such a cool track!

[@damonfosdike8708]

This is an awesome tune... love this band!!!

[@rong2912]

I could die to this...

[@subarulancaster2024]

[@NoQuarter1008]

music is subjective. i personally love this song, doesnt mean everyone else should.

[@MaxRoad23]

Que excelente canción...que manera de terminar.

[@flp3737]

Depressão com glamour, e esse final é sensacional

[@ezequielmoscatelli8552]

Sublime!

[@Minimaliztisch]

bewitching music...

[@enriqueelgenio]

Me van a perdonar, pero estos videos son más conceptuales que los de Radiohead. Los segundos serán más populares que los primeros, pero los primero son el contrabando del jazz al siglo XXI. Realmente genios.

This song had got me threw the darkest part of my life and even intill today it still puts my state of mind at ease,seeing them Live was so sick,memory of a lifetime

[@scaleshchess]

fanmade? this should have been the official vid! what a piece of art

[@matrags]

What a very great band. Never really in fasion, never really out of it. Just there for all to enjoy.

[@arthercasillas2755]

She has a very svelte voice. 😍

[@ofudgems]

I agree with you! After I saw this I had to put it in my favorites, simply amazing!

[@ttobiasg]

tiene que ser el mejor fan video del mundo mundial

[@klink2u]

love this song!

[@PercivalFromWales]

This is the Portishead I know and love. When "Third" came out, I could no longer relate. But maybe that's just me.

[@isaacbone6029]

For me third took time. The other two were instant classics

[@CristianViorelPasat]

great video... great song... great band........ simply beautiful... this is not a song, it is more like a musical experience...

[@josecasimiropina3931]

RIP Shaun Atkins. You'll be missed

[@vidamosa]

Wow..I don't even think I blinked while watching the video. It really gets to your head

[@Jabberwock156]

"With western eyes and serpent's breath we lay our own conscience to rest..." Does the word Illuminati rings a bell to anyone?

[@fumblerunk]

that's the thing about music.. it means different things to different people. If it touches ones soul then it has meaning and is understood & consequently enjoyed. like a more artistic voice for ones soul.. if it's not understood by narrow minded fools then the resulting attitude is a shame! WESTERN EYES!

[@oh69ohyes]

Great vid!!! *love the added touch of the mushrooms on the table. YUMMY!!!!!*

[@user-jc1jb4ku1m]

Sublime.

[@kellcamz]

BRILLIANT ARTWORK...

It is an amazing song, and the video is as good as the song. Really amazing.

@zaitt "This is a very sad song, but if you're like me, I always find the saddest music is also the most beautiful and this is one of my favorite songs that I've ever written" - Steven Wilson on Stop Swimming (Porcupine Tree) . I think this quote answers the question !

[@MarianHossa219]

ya pretty cool

[@MarianHossa219]

Agreed...

[@tretahko]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤

[@klink2u]

@zaitt I love it. when i am bummed out, I listen to it. and it somehow gets me out of my funk...but when i let my friends listen to it they always say ...oh it's to depressing for me!

[@Jpres]

wish all their songs were like that haha

Niezmiennie od wielu podoba mi się ta ilustracja. Hieronim Grecki-Filozof

[@alperozen3177]

Who does the sound at the end of the song belong to?

[@phntmsmshr]

It’s a “fake” sample, intended to sound like a Sinatra-style crooner called “The Sean Atkins Experience”, but really made by Adrian Utley.
