This was the first Massive Attack song I heard. It was 1995 and I was 15 years old. I was just starting to smoke pot. I was sitting on my friend's bedroom carpet and he put this on. At first I opposed because I was only into rock, but he insisted I give it a chance. Before I knew it, I melted into the wall I was leaning my back against. My friend was laughing because he had said my name several times without me moving or saying anything. This had me STUCK!! I have been a huge fan ever since! This version sounds a little different from the version on the album.
Good to hear! This album has inspired many people. If you don't know it yet, listen to the dub remix album No Protection. Massive Attack v Mad Professor.
"This song is about all sorts of love... sticking up for someone, protecting them and making them stronger, but also accepting them for who they are, flaws and all." An inmense feeling 💚

Having right now a boring drawing class in a lost town in Finnish countryside. This song playing in my earphones is like a soft LSD drop. Tasty lines coming out of my pencil.
I believe that every human being has their own very personal song and message to give to the rest and this song is CERTAINLY part of what massive attack leave to the world. unique, touching... kudos for putting yourselves into this song!
Beautiful group....I met them for the first time at Boom..A bar I used to work at in Soho NYC...As far as I remember.🤔I was high ...Working...After their first Concert in NYC ..Since then I’m a big fan.......FOREVER

My god I always knew that Massive Attack were good. But never really got to listen. As I like Stoner music which is slow pacing, i like this now! great music to be baked on
Kind of surprised when I scrape up the black spot on 3rd St in LA and find the center is something from 1996, and this song oozes out and it smells like orange blossoms.

Devo farvi i complimenti per come avete remixato questa che, a mio parere, è una delle più belle dei M. Ak. Ho sempre sognato di poterla remixare e se lo avessi fatto l'avrei costruita proprio così. ❤️
I listen to this a few times a day. Total addiction as I now live with my daughter taking care of me. Please, please, someone tell me what this cover art is...
The answer is simple never turn your back on anyone in need off help we are part off something so much more important than ourselves this in turn seals your immortality! Love to live ……live to love 💚

It’s a damn fine song, send an even better group. Thank you for sharing your experience, happy smoking.
@@slapyaface I accidentally bought this album instead of Protection sometime in the late 90s. I love it. Thanks for the recomendation.
@ClayTomlinson My mom, you, and at least two other people on TH-cam.
Quality gold
Never tired of this tune

Still listening Worcester 2024….needed more than ever!!!
2013 and I found this at a very good moment. This is pure gold :)
One of the best tracks...…..ever!
Wisdom is the rib of truth, in the image of God, there is no separation.

Flawless piece of art at its finest.

I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection
This girl I know needs some shelter
She don't believe anyone can help her
She's doing so much harm, doing so much damage
But you don't want to get involved
You tell her she can manage
And you can't change the way she feels
But you could put your arms around her
I know you want to live yourself
But could you forgive yourself
If you left her just the way
You found her
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection
You're a boy and I'm a girl
But you know you can lean on me
And I don't have no fear
I'll take on any man here
Who says that's not the way it should be
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection
She's a girl and you're a boy
Sometimes you look so small, look so small
You've got a baby of your own
When your baby's grown, she'll be the one
To catch you when you fall
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection
You're a girl and I'm a boy
You're a girl and I'm a boy, yeah
You're a girl and I'm a boy
You're a girl and I'm a boy
Sometimes you look so small, need some shelter
Just runnin' round and round, Helter Skelter
And I've leaned on you for years
Now you can lean on me
And that's more than love, that's the way
It should be
Now I can't change the way you think
But I could put my arms around you
That's just part of the deal
That's the way I feel
I put my arms around you
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection
I stand in front of you
I'll take the force of the blow
Protection
You're a boy and I'm a girl
You're a boy and I'm a girl, hey
You're a boy and I'm a girl
You're a boy and I'm a girl, yeah

Still one of the few bands on my bucket list that I have not seen yet. The next festival will be the one I swear.
12 minutes qui passent sans s'en rendre compte. Parfait !!
Tout à fait d'accord...
Except there’s an add in the middle????
@@seth286 wait, you knew what they were saying?
This song still going strong bumping like me in Sept 2024
you and me both :3
Tracy Thorn is just "THE" Voice
Hello ? If only Julie Driscoll ,could've taken a turn with Massive Attack
Love her voice!

This reminds me of walking out of school on the last day of school
That sounds like a happy memory, I remember walking out covered in eggs, flour, and permanent markers.
I miss those fuckers dearly, lol 🍻
This Gemälde fits perfectly well to my Dias de los Muertos Monster Drink I had THIS evening at approx. 17:00 h. Fine, fine, fine.
Great version
This is so a start of a day. Relaxing...
Great song... with the exception of the ad popping up at the 6 minute mark. Huge mood-ruiner.
Absolutely
i love this song
I agree, Scott.
Cosas que traes grabadas a fondo y que se vuelven a activar. Ufffffff!
BEST Fxxxx SONG EVER!
This particular mix, I just cannot find it anywhere to download on my iOS
Maravellous......
When you find them, make sure you're there to catch them when they fall.
Cool 🍀🙏🏻❤️
I needed this
Amen 🙌
