Since my dad passed last year I was keeping everything to myself. Randomly came to this song in my apple music mix and damn, that was a trigger. Couldn't stop crying like a little kid. And I am 43 years old kid. When music touches your heart andsoul, you know it's for real
so relatable, i’m 16 and my dad committed just over a month ago. i got his tv and saw this song was the last song he listened to. i feel you, i’m sorry for your loss. i hope youre doing okay
I’m watching Prison Break, and the scene where the prisoners reflect on their thoughts and expectations before their escape has become so special to me. The way the song lights up that moment-it’s pure magic! It humanizes everything, making it impossible not to connect with the characters. It’s funny how this show was such a hit during my teenage years, and now, almost at 40, I’m finally watching it. Thank you, Massive Attack! Your music is truly something special.
@over8124 he's saying it's one of the most important pieces of music TO HIM, what's important to him may not be important to you or the world at large, but he wasn't saying it was, just that it was important to him.
Agreed. It's tragedy that every day young people aren't taught the difference between a pure, respectable, and selfish fleeting lust. If parents educated their children, the world would be a better place
You will never be forgotten Darius as you have a beautiful soul in your brother. It is beyond my understanding how many of humanity’s special people leave early.
Unfortunately it is a fake post… the same channel switches from sister to brother, pasting the same comment presumedly to promote their own videos. But you have a beautiful soul nonetheless to feel for and connect with the words of another. You are a special person yourself, David.
Years ago I listened to this album over and over to help me sleep after my marriage broke down. I believe in some small way this song helped save my life. First time I've listened to it since then. It really is beautiful.
This song is definitely gentler on the soul than listening to Moby's Porcelain immediately after a life wrecking break up. th-cam.com/video/13EifDb4GYs/w-d-xo.html
I’m sure it did help heal you. When I got divorced I suddenly became a single dad of 2 small kids and had no idea what to do. I immersed myself in music every day to take my sorrows away. It got me through to the other side.

Really, they weren't. This sort of downtempo has tons of contemporaries - most of them have just gone ignored and/or weren't featured in major motion pictures or television. That's not to diminish Massive Attack's skill or success, just to suggest that there's a lot more to explore within the genre!
@@zkhcohenAbsolutely, yet they managed to pull mesmerizing songs above the rest of their genre counterparts. When I first heard Massive Attack I thought they were a 2000's 2010's band.
only stumbled upon this cuz of house, this is far from being a great song. You guys are just saying that just to be different and not to be "mainstream"
I remember when this hit the shelves. Me & my mates liked the cover & so bought a copy at HMV, Southend on Sea, UK. We went straight to East beach to have a listen & blaze a jay. On the way we had the black track "Angel", which already had us curious. We parked, sparked up, & then this BOMBSHELL happened. We were totally stunned. Never in a million years could we predict this incredible haunting sound. We looked at each other in amazement. Not a word was spoken. We just sat there.. in the burning sun beaming through the windscreen of the car with all doors open, polarized by this odd & inimitable song. Then people started jogging over.. almost begging us to tell them... "What is that track?" They would text each other the name of the album (phones were primitive back then!!) & then they were racing down to the stores to grab a copy. Good music used to be a drug back in the 90's because you didn't have You Tube. If you missed that title.. you may never hear it again. We knew then that the generic shit we were listening before would sound totally inferior by comparison.
Asdayasman I don't mean that to start an argument, I just hate how cannabis is thrown in the "drugs" category. To me a drug is Meth, crack, Krokodil etc. Some sort of mish mash of awful chemicals. Whereas a cannabis plant grows just like a potato or carrot etc.
This is so haunting. I remember the time I saw the video on VH1 after school in five or six grade. Totally hypnotized. I’m 30 now and it’s still a favorite.
I was in my 2nd year of high school when i heard it for the first time, it was summer holiday and I was drunk and high on weed at the park with some friends and one of them played this song on his phone, I was hypnotized, i must have listened to it at least 20 times that night and Massive Attack became one of my favorite bands.
Vividly remember seeing it for the first time in 5/6 grade, sleepover party at a friends place, late night watching RAGE (Australians will know!), what a time to be alive. Literally jaws dropped in the room, so beautiful, so serene.
Yeah dude be proud to live where someone who wasn't you did something having nothing to do with you. Humans are amazing regardless of geography. Wherever there are humans there has always been music. Stop speaking on behalf of actions you did not perform.
While I agree, it's rather outstanding the amount of amazing music this country has produced. Of course I only really listen to English music so I've somewhat limited myself but compare the UK to the rest of the English speaking world and we've done something incredibly right
This song is still way ahead of it's time. Just randomly discovered yesterday and genuinely thought this was a recently released song. There's something about this that cannot be described in words. Dangerously captivating
I really love seeing someone discover great music for the first time. This song, while not super well known, has had staying power over the years, albeit having more of a sleeper/cult fan base. As you can see it has over 600k likes, just edging out the subscriber rate for the band itself. I just so happened to be putting a variety playlist together and threw this one in. Who knows, maybe someone out there will make more happy discoveries this way. Happy music exploring! th-cam.com/play/PLNFOplKnrHHDTNHnuWwJd0uI-CruPS_kX.html
I actually thought of this song while watching the TV show house m.d. and waiting for the intro with this song but I think they removed it and went back to their old intro... but I love this song and it popped back into my head recently along with this video... but I absolutely love this song and had to listen it...
I have a long history with Bristol. From 1996 onwards. I moved there when I was 18. This started from when my so called mother couldn't remember my date of birth. I played this song for her. She didn't get it. I went to Bristol University and got a 1st. I was the 1st women in my family to go to University. I still love this song X
My younger brother committed suicide last weekend by overdosing on something. He was found with headphones on, presumably listening to something. This is his youtube account. He made a playlist containing 6 songs that was edited the day he passed. This is one of the 6 songs. With the method he used, he was dead after about 30 minutes, probably unconscious around 12 minutes. I like to think that it was peaceful for him with his music on. I love you Darius, I'll miss you everyday for the rest of my life..
First time i heard this song it was winter 1998, i had just moved to a new state. I was sitting in the snow, watching the flakes fall to the sounds in my cd walkman. Tears fell and my soul weeped to hear such a haunting melody. To ever try and recreate that first listen can never be matched. ❤ but i still love this one.
I thought that in the future more music would follow suit and push the limits of what trip-hop could be. Now there is certainly still very good music of the same genre being put out there but none that truly surpasses this album.
Vocally Elizabeth Fraser is on a whole other level. Just amazing really. Her voice is positively uncanny. Stupendous. Seriously, there is not enough can be said about it.
On a whole other level compared to what? The talentless so-called superstars in the mainstream who literally can't sing? Yes. Compared to real signers? Not really.
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers, who were there, floating on CT's music thru Garlands, Treasure, Blue Bell Knoll, Heaven or Las Vegas, on vinyl, tape and CD, knew of Liz's voice. We've travelled thru Liz's voice.
I was in the hospital listening to this song trying to create a memory of my baby, in my womb, knowing he had almost no chances in this world. He was beautiful and perfect.
This reminds me of my beautiful nephew Christophor, who at just 18 in November 1998, chose to leave us. He left his mother, my sister, he is her only child. How awful that time was for us all, but her suffering was unspeakable. Oh we miss you Tiff 💔
God's honest truth - way back when airlines used to have those 'radio stations' to listen to on their planes, this song came on just as the aircraft (that I and my family were on) was coming in to land at our home city and at night after we'd had a fantastic holiday. It ended just as the plane was coming to a stop. It was like the end of a movie or something. Whenever I hear this song, it always reminds me of that incredible few minutes... along with a whole bunch of other memories.
+GhostDoggSamurai that's so relatable, sometimes there's just one song that captures the moment so well and every time you hear it it brings back those waves of nostalgia
+GhostDoggSamurai Lovely story :) for me this song makes me feel the world is slowing down and I'm the only one walking seeing how bad the or ugly our earth planet is becoming due to greediness/enviousness people became, so selfish -_-
I listen to this son while sleeping. The vocals and the music everything just calms my body down.... House brought this song into my life and i couldn't be more thankful than this.
For those who don't know, this song is composed by the lead singer of Cocteau Twins Elizabeth Fraser, at the time she wrote the lyrics for this song, she was dating Jeff Buckley that unfortunately happened to die of drowning in that same period, i guess no more explanation is needed, this song represents grief in all forms, the melody, the lyrics and the overall energy of the song.
People's heartbeat, flowing blood and breathing all resonant at a low frequency and this song's impact on that phenomenon are closely linked. Makes it all the more incredible work
Love, love is a verb Love is a doing word Fearless on my breath Gentle impulsion Shakes me, makes me lighter Fearless on my breath Teardrop on the fire Fearless on my breath Night, night after day Black flowers blossom Fearless on my breath Black flowers blossom Fearless on my breath Teardrop on the fire Fearless on my... Water is my eye Most faithful mirror Fearless on my breath Teardrop on the fire Of a confession Fearless on my breath Most faithful mirror Fearless on my breath Teardrop on the fire Fearless on my breath You stumble in the dark You stumble in the dark
I'm sorry, I don't quite understand you. Was it a crime to post the lyrics to the song I wanted to sing along with? You can correct it where you may like to while being polite, it won't hurt 💛🙂
I remember this song started playing over the tannoy while doing a overnight shift at work...and everybody naturally stopped speaking and just let the song play out first ...never had a song had that much power to control a room...its simply beautiful.
I stumbled upon this on “A discovery of witches”. Really good quote & songs in the show. Grief carves a place in the heart and sits there forever but when focused it can be a powerful motivator. Sadness becomes resolve and pain becomes action! “Fear is an illness. If you catch it and you leave it untreated, it can consume you. You face it. Facing your fear is not easy. ❤ “Nobody smart plays fair.” “It’s hard to regret something you didn’t choose.”
Massive Attack are trying to tell us what love is. The beat of the song perfectly represents the fragility of such an ethereal concept as love. It is fragile like the crystal of a teardrop, yet powerful like a droplet falling into a fire. Love is a doing word.
I adore Liz Fraser's voice but this collaboration with Massive Attack is without doubt among her finest, its serenity and the purity of her voice makes me have tingles all through my body. Though I'm not too sure whether it's this amazing video or the 2 times I've watched their shows live on ecstasy. It's almost enough to bring me to tears remembering times and people who passed on by.
I have lost count how many times I have watched House MD seasons 1-8 again and again and again. And this song...will forever be associated with Dr. Gregory House. Watched the show in the early 2000's and it never fails to bring some joy to me till today.
Love, love is a verb Love is a doing word Fearless on my breath Gentle impulsion Shakes me, makes me lighter Fearless on my breath Teardrop on the fire Fearless on my breath Night, night of matter Black flowers blossom Fearless on my breath Black flowers blossom Fearless on my breath Teardrop on the fire Fearless on my Water is my eye Most faithful mirror Fearless on my breath Teardrop on the fire Of a confession Fearless on my breath Most faithful mirror Fearless on my breath Teardrop on the fire Fearless on my breath It's tumbling down (as in love falling apart) It's tumbling down (as in love falling apart)
I first heard this as the “theme song” to House back in the early 2000’s and fell in love, looked it up, found this. I used to play this song to fall asleep to, it invokes a deep sense of peace and… nostalgia for me. It’s beautiful. So is Jose Gonzales’ of the same name.
English trip hop group Massive Attack. Vocals are performed by Elizabeth Fraser Trip hop at the very beginning of it all as techno faded away. Also--- with deep shades of Portishead.
@@BrianCarnevaleB26 Portishead and massive attack are both from exactly the same part of England. The city of Bristol, much like Seattle has grunge, Bristol has triphop. Bristol also has a huge cultural and arts scene, there's graffiti art on every wall and building, it's truly the city of artists in England.
I was born in 92 and have core memories starting in like 97ish and some slight memories before then of life and music from that time does the same to me. I felt so warm as a kid and the music puts a little bit of that warmth back.
Im with you there - 90s were a great time to be alive, we were free and looking forward to the future, fast forward to now and what a mess we are in. If only we could go back.
He meanders through sounds like a river running to the sea, he runs through landscapes on the way longing to be free, his spirit will never be fully understood. RIP Buckley
It's modeled on a heartbeat... Its emotion is modeled on what happens when that heartbeat stops. If this doesn't grab your attention and give you a moment of pause, you are missing something. Sadly, if you are missing something, this music has a way of hitting even harder.
Heard a great cover of this on The Last Dance, about the Chicago Bulls and Michael Jordan. I absolutely had to listen to the original. One of my favorite songs of all time!

I lost my uncle in an accident in 2022. We've been slowly trying to sort out his stuff and we recently managed to figure out the password for his iPad (it was his own birthday haha). I had a little look and went into his music, this was the last song he was listening to on it. I started listening to this song in early 2023 after hearing it in House and I loved it, I didn't ever know he liked it too. He had a great, diverse taste in music. Miss him every day ❤
im so sorry for your loss, im in nearly the exact same situation with my uncle - he died last july and loved house. fairly fitting considering he died from his alcoholism. i want you to know that you arent alone. i still struggle but knowing i have my friends and the rest of my family helps. i dont know who you are or how youre doing but i understand and im right by your side
There is an illusivity to this melody line like captured fairy dust.It’s like it has the force of nature running through it. Liz was the perfect vocalist to interpret this exquisite song!
Time. Yes. Time. It's 17-11-2023 and this track is still going SO strong. Insanely strong i should say, this track is going to live forever.. i hope..🌟 What a godsent this is.
This track by Massive Attack is so hypnotic & still absolutely beautiful after all these years. The video was & still is perfect for it. I will never tire of it.❤
I still remember hearing it for the first time when it premiered on TV. Goosehumps and visual trauma from the regular music videos produced at the time. I’m 36 now. Time flies guys🎉
This was the favorite song of my dad who died 2 years ago. Listening to this makes me want to cry and makes me feel the good memories again. Thank you, massive attack❤️
Wow ( in the sense of your comment made me look up and realize he lost his battle with lung cancer)... hmmm .. I wish we could all live forever .... damn ... Song will be on repeat in memory of him, for 24 hours - just something I do.

I may have just found the love of my life, and this is how it feels. Teardrop on the fire of a confession. I love and am loved. Out of nowhere and out of everywhere.
In the bible Jesus dissapears between the ages of 12 and 30. So we know nothing of this period. He could have done anything, including marrying and fathering children.
Well, there are. A couple of suggestions: "Song To The Siren" by This Mortal Coil - "The Lobby" and "The Taxi Ride" both by Jane Siberry - "Lonely, Lonely" by Feist. But there are a lot more. Enjoy.
I wonder how many hundreds of thousands of fans House was responsible for. All their albums still sound ahead of their time, especially 100th Window. Timeless, actually.
i was in the Goth scene/club scene before *House* aired. I was a DJ too, and you're exactly right. *House* put Massive Attack on the map among Vanillas. They'd come to our club, thinking they'd hear more Massive Attack, and ilk. Instead they got *Dead can Dance*, *Sisters of Mercy*, *Skinny Puppies*, *Grendel*, and *Xuberx*, then they'd ding, dong, ditch really quick, realising we were a bunch of freaks, lol
For me there are really just two songs from them that do anything: this one and Unfinished Sympathy. Other stuff they did is not exactly bad, but I have to actively take the time to listen to them, whereas these two can just take me with them regardless of what else may occupy me at the moment.

It is 100% feathers not fearless like these sheep are all saying. For proof go listen to the Jools Holland performance, you can blatantly hear the TH in feathers. Also, 'fearless on my breath' doesn't even make sense.
Is it crazy I never heard this song until this year? So it's brand new to me and fits this time and age perfectly. Glad I got to hear it before my time here is up.
I was 7 the first time i heard this, one of the best things my family did was to teach me music is beautiful and experience it anytime you can be it good or bad, same as life.
my mind scatters throughout the day with business and social events, but I simply play this and it's like everything suddenly formulates into a beautiful prism and reminds me of how beautiful it is to be alive and experience life before you are taken. Share it before its gone.
Up until now I have only ever listened to this masterpiece on the radio with good vibes. Now I will have to listen with sorrow. Which means I can now still enjoy this song, but just on another level. My condolences still 2 years later.

Yeah dude be proud to live where someone who wasn't you did something having nothing to do with you. Humans are amazing regardless of geography. Wherever there are humans there has always been music. Stop speaking on behalf of actions you did not perform.
Brexit sucks!!

While I agree, it's rather outstanding the amount of amazing music this country has produced. Of course I only really listen to English music so I've somewhat limited myself but compare the UK to the rest of the English speaking world and we've done something incredibly right
Yet more proof that the harpsichord is a massively underrated instrument
This song is still way ahead of it's time. Just randomly discovered yesterday and genuinely thought this was a recently released song. There's something about this that cannot be described in words. Dangerously captivating
It was a beautiful Sunday morning come down choon for us back in the 90s after being out raving all night....❤❤
I really love seeing someone discover great music for the first time.
This song, while not super well known, has had staying power over the years, albeit having more of a sleeper/cult fan base. As you can see it has over 600k likes, just edging out the subscriber rate for the band itself.
I just so happened to be putting a variety playlist together and threw this one in. Who knows, maybe someone out there will make more happy discoveries this way. Happy music exploring! th-cam.com/play/PLNFOplKnrHHDTNHnuWwJd0uI-CruPS_kX.html
I actually thought of this song while watching the TV show house m.d. and waiting for the intro with this song but I think they removed it and went back to their old intro... but I love this song and it popped back into my head recently along with this video... but I absolutely love this song and had to listen it...
Theme Song for the Tv Show House starring Hugh Laurie
i just discovered this song listening to a 90s music playlist and this song is something else... its so amazing
As a human being who has been in a womb for 9 months I can confirm this is what we sing everyday and why my mom can feel the kick
This made me laugh very loudly. Thank you.

"Love, love is a verb - love is a doing word" ... my all time favorite lyric.
I have a long history with Bristol. From 1996 onwards.
I moved there when I was 18. This started from when my so called mother couldn't remember my date of birth. I played this song for her. She didn't get it. I went to Bristol University and got a 1st. I was the 1st women in my family to go to University. I still love this song X

My younger brother committed suicide last weekend by overdosing on something. He was found with headphones on, presumably listening to something. This is his youtube account. He made a playlist containing 6 songs that was edited the day he passed. This is one of the 6 songs. With the method he used, he was dead after about 30 minutes, probably unconscious around 12 minutes. I like to think that it was peaceful for him with his music on. I love you Darius, I'll miss you everyday for the rest of my life..
I'm sorry for you... hope he found peace now...
Sorry for your loss
I'm so sorry for your loss I hope your brother has found his peace ❤
Sending much love in such a time ✌️🙏❤️✨ wish you all the very best 😌
So sorry 🙏
First time i heard this song it was winter 1998, i had just moved to a new state. I was sitting in the snow, watching the flakes fall to the sounds in my cd walkman. Tears fell and my soul weeped to hear such a haunting melody. To ever try and recreate that first listen can never be matched. ❤ but i still love this one.
It's 2020 and 1998 Massive attack are still way ahead of their time.
I thought that in the future more music would follow suit and push the limits of what trip-hop could be. Now there is certainly still very good music of the same genre being put out there but none that truly surpasses this album.
Maybe they built a strong road, I've enjoyed the same genre in recent times from different underrated artists ...
Still going back to 1991 massive attack honey xxx
Music today is proof of idiocracy
When Music reaches deep, Time doesn't matter
Vocally Elizabeth Fraser is on a whole other level. Just amazing really. Her voice is positively uncanny. Stupendous. Seriously, there is not enough can be said about it.
Fans of Cocteau Twins can attest! Heaven or Las Vegas is still my favorite!
We knew from early Cocteau Twins days. She is an angel who walks amongs bus
On a whole other level compared to what? The talentless so-called superstars in the mainstream who literally can't sing? Yes. Compared to real signers? Not really.
Song to the Siren is an absolutely beautiful tune as well 👌
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers, who were there, floating on CT's music thru Garlands, Treasure, Blue Bell Knoll, Heaven or Las Vegas, on vinyl, tape and CD, knew of Liz's voice. We've travelled thru Liz's voice.
Who can tell that this song was made 25 years ago ? Incredible music - incredible song - thank you Massive Attack
Most good music was made prior to 2000. So very believable, almost obvious that this made made before then
someone can tell me what kind if music is that, i want to listen more of this type!
Ageless imo
@@umserdistante It's called Trip Hop. Specifically 90's era UK Bristol Trip Hop. Some artists worth a mention. Hooverphonic, tricky, portishead.
@@alsimmons3649 thank you for the information! I will search up these mentioned names!
This song speaks for the mothers womb. The visuals are deep.
I was in the hospital listening to this song trying to create a memory of my baby, in my womb, knowing he had almost no chances in this world. He was beautiful and perfect.
I am sorry for your loss. Wishes of recovery and love
May he be at peace.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Hope you're well now.
This reminds me of my beautiful nephew Christophor, who at just 18 in November 1998, chose to leave us. He left his mother, my sister, he is her only child. How awful that time was for us all, but her suffering was unspeakable. Oh we miss you Tiff 💔
God's honest truth - way back when airlines used to have those 'radio stations' to listen to on their planes, this song came on just as the aircraft (that I and my family were on) was coming in to land at our home city and at night after we'd had a fantastic holiday. It ended just as the plane was coming to a stop. It was like the end of a movie or something.
Whenever I hear this song, it always reminds me of that incredible few minutes... along with a whole bunch of other memories.
+GhostDoggSamurai that's so relatable, sometimes there's just one song that captures the moment so well and every time you hear it it brings back those waves of nostalgia
+GhostDoggSamurai Perfect touch down ending at the very end!
+GhostDoggSamurai Lovely story :) for me this song makes me feel the world is slowing down and I'm the only one walking seeing how bad the or ugly our earth planet is becoming due to greediness/enviousness people became, so selfish -_-
+GhostDoggSamurai This is a nice comment man, its all about memories.
+GhostDoggSamurai
Sweet---sound like the song actually closed out your holiday for you,lol.
20 years old and their music still sounds futuristic.
that's right my friend
The song was released as the second single from the group's third studio album, Mezzanine, on 27 April 1998.
English music
So true
I’m 63 and still loving it
I listen to this son while sleeping. The vocals and the music everything just calms my body down.... House brought this song into my life and i couldn't be more thankful than this.
For those who don't know, this song is composed by the lead singer of Cocteau Twins Elizabeth Fraser, at the time she wrote the lyrics for this song, she was dating Jeff Buckley that unfortunately happened to die of drowning in that same period, i guess no more explanation is needed, this song represents grief in all forms, the melody, the lyrics and the overall energy of the song.
Powerful I’ve only ever written a song before losing the one I love and care about but never after it’s too painful to write about it
She wasn't dating Jeff Buckley at the time. He was in a relationship with Joan Wasser, to whom he had recently proposed.
@@createseventyeight3082 Ever heard of cheating?
. 😅😅сдай
Jeff Buckley was a _who,_ not a _that._
People's heartbeat, flowing blood and breathing all resonant at a low frequency and this song's impact on that phenomenon are closely linked. Makes it all the more incredible work

Me and my first soon-to-be-born baby are listening to this. It's peaceful for both of us (and one day we'll binge-watch house together).
This song is otherworldly. I can't get enough of this song. Massive Attack is soooo grossly underrated.
*There's a cover of Teardrop by Brad Mehldau while he was performing in Vienna that's massively underrated as well.*
I’m with you. I just absolutely love this song.
No they're not luv
You'd probaby like Anemone from the brian jonestown massacre.
Homeostasis you look beautiful in that tiny picture
It blows my mind that I was once in a womb like this...and that everyone I meet or see was too..Be kind, we're all human and miracles!
Nobody asks to be born. And you dont pick your sex or race. But somehow people use it against others. Never understood that.
@@johndef5075 At my lowest point, I could swear the human race is cursed.
Don't get carried away, every vertebrate comes out of a womb. Nothing biologically special about humans getting born.
I remember this song started playing over the tannoy while doing a overnight shift at work...and everybody naturally stopped speaking and just let the song play out first ...never had a song had that much power to control a room...its simply beautiful.
This song makes me sad for the forgotten unborn who never made it out the womb to seek a journey of what life may have taught us all.
This song is literally one of the best songs ever made.
I stumbled upon this on “A discovery of witches”. Really good quote & songs in the show.
Grief carves a place in the heart and sits there forever but when focused it can be a powerful motivator. Sadness becomes resolve and pain becomes action!
“Fear is an illness. If you catch it and you leave it untreated, it can consume you. You face it. Facing your fear is not easy. ❤
“Nobody smart plays fair.”
“It’s hard to regret something you didn’t choose.”
Also one of the best music video off all time too. Its crazy.
Jesus christ that was deep@@irismast5107

What a beautiful, emotional and meaningful song. This is what art is about.
Just what I was wondering
Massive Attack are trying to tell us what love is.
The beat of the song perfectly represents the fragility of such an ethereal concept as love. It is fragile like the crystal of a teardrop, yet powerful like a droplet falling into a fire. Love is a doing word.
That's A Beautiful Comment

This is the greatest song of mankind. I haven’t yet heard a song more gorgeous than this.
I adore Liz Fraser's voice but this collaboration with Massive Attack is without doubt among her finest, its serenity and the purity of her voice makes me have tingles all through my body. Though I'm not too sure whether it's this amazing video or the 2 times I've watched their shows live on ecstasy. It's almost enough to bring me to tears remembering times and people who passed on by.
Massive Attack has done amazing collaborations with so many female artists. My first was Tracey Thorn in the 90's.
That what it's all about for me. Feeling connected.
I have lost count how many times I have watched House MD seasons 1-8 again and again and again. And this song...will forever be associated with Dr. Gregory House. Watched the show in the early 2000's and it never fails to bring some joy to me till today.

I first heard this as the “theme song” to House back in the early 2000’s and fell in love, looked it up, found this. I used to play this song to fall asleep to, it invokes a deep sense of peace and… nostalgia for me. It’s beautiful. So is Jose Gonzales’ of the same name.
Same here
Yo the jose gonzales one is fire, his music from red dead redemption is fire too
Its popped up in s10 of AHS nd im like...why on earth do i kno that song! House! Its quite serene😊
English trip hop group Massive Attack. Vocals are performed by Elizabeth Fraser
Trip hop at the very beginning of it all as techno faded away. Also--- with deep shades of Portishead.
@@BrianCarnevaleB26 Portishead and massive attack are both from exactly the same part of England. The city of Bristol, much like Seattle has grunge, Bristol has triphop. Bristol also has a huge cultural and arts scene, there's graffiti art on every wall and building, it's truly the city of artists in England.
This song always pulls me back to that deep, calm, sensory deprived mental place. I use it to put my baby to sleep too. Works like magic

Mine either. Its forever the 90's in my mind. And Im fine with that.
90s forever...🤘
I’m right there with you!!
I was born in 92 and have core memories starting in like 97ish and some slight memories before then of life and music from that time does the same to me. I felt so warm as a kid and the music puts a little bit of that warmth back.
Im with you there - 90s were a great time to be alive, we were free and looking forward to the future, fast forward to now and what a mess we are in. If only we could go back.
A boy of the 90s. A man of the millennium. This is a very special song. Timeless. It will be just as great in any era to come.
Massive attack.... PURE GENIOUS... STILL SOUNDS MINT ALL THESE YEARS ON
“We are born to live, we are born to understand, we are born to carry a cursed pattern and be transformed by pain.”
Rest in power Jeff
Amen, "All flowers turn towards the sun"
He meanders through sounds like a river running to the sea, he runs through landscapes on the way longing to be free, his spirit will never be fully understood. RIP Buckley

I was 16 yo when this song came out in 1997. I was nailed to floor when I first saw it on MTV. The lyrics, the video, the beat... music can do that
It's modeled on a heartbeat...
Its emotion is modeled on what happens when that heartbeat stops.
If this doesn't grab your attention and give you a moment of pause, you are missing something.
Sadly, if you are missing something, this music has a way of hitting even harder.
Heard a great cover of this on The Last Dance, about the Chicago Bulls and Michael Jordan. I absolutely had to listen to the original. One of my favorite songs of all time!

I lost my uncle in an accident in 2022. We've been slowly trying to sort out his stuff and we recently managed to figure out the password for his iPad (it was his own birthday haha). I had a little look and went into his music, this was the last song he was listening to on it. I started listening to this song in early 2023 after hearing it in House and I loved it, I didn't ever know he liked it too. He had a great, diverse taste in music. Miss him every day ❤
im so sorry for your loss, im in nearly the exact same situation with my uncle - he died last july and loved house. fairly fitting considering he died from his alcoholism. i want you to know that you arent alone. i still struggle but knowing i have my friends and the rest of my family helps. i dont know who you are or how youre doing but i understand and im right by your side
This song takes me to another place. So soulful and heartfelt
This song was playing on the radio in the birthing room while my son was being born so it holds great sentlemental value for me.

It seems congratulations are in order, so... Congratulations!

This song is like being wrapped in a warm comfortable blanket.
more like a warm womb to me.
Heroin?
***** and i feel just like jesus son...
In the bible Jesus dissapears between the ages of 12 and 30. So we know nothing of this period. He could have done anything, including marrying and fathering children.
What the hell does being wrapped in a blanket have to do with Jesus?
This song is sad yet beautiful making me feel relaxed and at peace. I wish there were more songs like this to listen to.
haunting great video
Well, there are. A couple of suggestions: "Song To The Siren" by This Mortal Coil - "The Lobby" and "The Taxi Ride" both by Jane Siberry - "Lonely, Lonely" by Feist.
But there are a lot more. Enjoy.
it makes me want to watch House
despite of language barrier all babies in womb sing Massive Attack's teardrop now and then.
I know I did.
I have a sudden urge to write symptoms on a whiteboard...
I wonder how many hundreds of thousands of fans House was responsible for. All their albums still sound ahead of their time, especially 100th Window. Timeless, actually.
i was in the Goth scene/club scene before *House* aired. I was a DJ too, and you're exactly right. *House* put Massive Attack on the map among Vanillas. They'd come to our club, thinking they'd hear more Massive Attack, and ilk.
Instead they got *Dead can Dance*, *Sisters of Mercy*, *Skinny Puppies*, *Grendel*, and *Xuberx*, then they'd ding, dong, ditch really quick, realising we were a bunch of freaks, lol
For me there are really just two songs from them that do anything: this one and Unfinished Sympathy. Other stuff they did is not exactly bad, but I have to actively take the time to listen to them, whereas these two can just take me with them regardless of what else may occupy me at the moment.
First time I was aware of Massive Attack. That and Luther has brought them back I think.
Prison break!

It is 100% feathers not fearless like these sheep are all saying. For proof go listen to the Jools Holland performance, you can blatantly hear the TH in feathers. Also, 'fearless on my breath' doesn't even make sense.

Is it crazy I never heard this song until this year? So it's brand new to me and fits this time and age perfectly. Glad I got to hear it before my time here is up.
their whole album Mezzanine is excellent if you haven't heard it, or the song Paradise Circus is good like this one
fits the 90s perfectly, not now.
I'm sorry, I really don't want to be rude, but where we're you all this time? 😂
@@ianswift3521Maybe for you, I’m 17 and this song doesn’t give me 90s vibes at all lol
@@angelvuI'd argue it's timeless so you're right 👊
I was 7 the first time i heard this, one of the best things my family did was to teach me music is beautiful and experience it anytime you can be it good or bad, same as life.
RIP IN PIECES Dr. House.. :'(( best show ever made..
RIP IN PIECES = Rest In Peace In Pieces....... I see what you did there!
the show is.
piratebay anyone?
Rip in pieces what
wait did Dr House die if he did OH MY GOD WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME WUT THE FUCK
my mind scatters throughout the day with business and social events, but I simply play this and it's like everything suddenly formulates into a beautiful prism and reminds me of how beautiful it is to be alive and experience life before you are taken. Share it before its gone.
Twenty years ago this bought me love and life. Now I just wish to end it!
Or before you get lupus
Same but most dont understand
Up until now I have only ever listened to this masterpiece on the radio with good vibes. Now I will have to listen with sorrow. Which means I can now still enjoy this song, but just on another level. My condolences still 2 years later.
This song will never die
Nope. It is Art as mutch it creates souls😢
wrong
How can it die? It’s the song of birth. It can never die 😊
