Portishead - Over (PNYC)

Portishead doing a kick ass performance of 'Over' with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra...

[@lucifersam99]

Whenever i listen to Portishead, my life becomes a confusing and muddled espionage story for a few minutes at a time. ...I love it.

[@Dyltron31000]

This is more than a performance of one song, it's a brief three act play. She starts with her vulnerable side, then the snare ignites her sinister defiant self that we see so much in the second album, then finally she brings forth her most emotional, most personal appeal.

[@williamp7278]

Well said

[@RevCTW366]

it's pretty wild that they are so good live. Most musicians sound better in the studio, but they REALLY come alive on stage and to blend hiphop, rock/jazz and orchestral music. Very impressive.

[@seanbrazell6147]

This is easily the best live album of any band, from any genre, ever. Perfection doesn't get more perfect than this wonder!

[@GrimAlecks]

one of their greatest performence, beth gibbons just fucking rocks, shes like a rare beauty, you dont find someone like her and when you do you just dont say nothing

[@corinnaw3420]

The nineties were the best decade.

[@silentjob]

I said the exact same thing to my wife today

[@Soesjaah]

i love portishead, and they're awsome live. most bands aren't. i'm just 13 but i love there music

[@notmaaason]

You're 23 now. How's the last decade been? Lol still in to Portishead? 🤘

[@Monscent]

The intro is so fucking chilling. The song so damn mysterious.

[@Fleschtube]

It's crazy. Her voice live sounds just as good as if not better than the album. Impeccable.

[@herofliphunter]

I can't hold this day Anymore Understand me Anymore To tread this fantasy, openly What have I done Ooh this uncertainty, is taking me over I can't mold this stage Anymore Recognize me Anymore To tread this fantasy, openly What have I done Ooh this uncertainty, is taking me over is taking me over To tread this fantasy, openly What have I done Ooh this uncertainty, is taking me over is taking me over is taking me over

[@thalieh.6470]

Thank you!!!!

[@mefeline]

each of portishead's song has a life of its own, thank you beth and the rest of portishead

[@TooHaiku]

I've been a fan of Portishead since Dummy first dropped. I still listen to them quite often, but have never had a chance to see them live. Thumbs up for great vid, and another for convincing me to catch their show if they ever tour again.

[@zurisadayca1370]

Lo he visto en vivo y anheló verlos de nuevo como si fuera la primera vez

[@teferioscar]

Portishead = Perfection. Beth Gibbons = Goddess

[@RealidadeDaTerra]

THEY REACHED PERFECTION, DEFINITELY!

[@Homnuangirl]

The perfection shown here is unbelievable.

[@StonedOdie]

Gettin chills... Can't get enough of their shit! Fuck I love Portishead!

[@StonedOdie]

And I mean come on, when you've got like 20 string instruments behind you and a conductor there to rock your song, you are just the shit, period....

[@asphodeline]

Those shivering strings really add to the performance, and Beth's just amazing.

[@reynoldsstacie]

she is just mindblowing. her voice is so pure and perfect, she sounds exactly as she does on the album when she preforms live, not many people have that kind of talent.

[@Neuroelectronic]

Of all the music I listened to when I was 16, this is still one of the musicians I still dig... This and Marlyn Manson.

[@Mantcer]

Sencillamente, genial. Pagaría lo que sea por verlos aquí en Sudamérica (anoto en esta categoría a Gilmour-Waters y Blur). Amo la actitud de la cantante. Puro feeling.

[@VatoFeo]

I never get tired of listening to this song

[@tophertucker3828]

I would marry this woman's voice... God..

[@Dyltron31000]

The best performance on this DVD and the best version of Over ever done.

[@dtownlove10]

This is sooo good. I can’t understand people that don’t get moved by this performance.

[@mulherbarbada9385]

fell in love with this woman the 1st time I saw her

[@dirrty3]

you stand the whole song just for that glorious last 1 minute, it is wonderful

[@idkaikooly]

this is wat u call art of music pure power and emotions

[@jaminturn1]

this album is the first LIVE album I ever owned that I liked better than all the studio albums.....there was something in the air that day. gives me chills

[@juggern8]

This has been my favorite P song since a Danish friend introduced them to me over ten years ago. The Roseland version is actually better than the studio version IMHO. The simplicity of the guitar hook, that odd drum beat, and Portishead's unique approach to scratching (which is, sadly, completely absent on the Third album) all combine to make a truly amazing song. Beth's voice carries this song into the stratosphere.

[@Nawratil2]

I absolutely adore this song, yet this version tops it all! Wish I could've seen them live!!!

[@Vykers]

I just love the way scratching starts at 2.19

[@masturdate]

THIS!!

[@KushClarkKent]

Chills everytime

[@Renato404]

Every band needs its groove and they got the Best!!!
