    Ah this whole genre often referred to as Trip Hop is incredible, it was unique to Britain, and mainly in the Bristol area. You should check out more from Trip Hop artists such as Portishead (songs like Glory Box, Roads, All Mine, Mysterons and Sour Times), Tricky (Ponderosa and Black Steel) and Goldfrapp (Strict Machine, Utopia and Train) as well as more Massive Attack (Unfinished Sympathy, Karmacoma, Angel and Safe From Harm) all great songs.

      @radbarij they were immaculate, and Beth's voice is extraordinary live. Her album Out of Season with Rustin Man (Paul Webb bassist from the band Talk Talk) is also a great listen.

    Beautiful song ❤️ it's been almost 25 years since it came out, but it is so ahead of its time! The singer is Elizabeth Fraser, she was the lead singer of the amazing band Cocteau Twins!!

    That's Elizabeth Fraser from The Cocteau Twins singing. She has an amazing voice and a 5 octave range.She wasn't in the band but dating one of the band members at the time I think. Listen to her songs with This Mortal Coil, especially Song to a Siren. I think you will like it.

    Hypnotic! Completely get it about feeling music in moments of your life - like a soundtrack. Music is deep. If you want more trip hop, Portishead "Glory Box" is a famous one to try. Thanks guys!!

    @nikki-noir 2 года назад +26

    Guys, you stumbled upon my favourite bathtime tune, haha.
    Madonna almost got the job to sing on this. I do not feel it would have had the same effect. Elizabeth absolutely blows this out of the water and learning that her boyfriend Jeff Buckley, another amazing musician had passed away whilst writing and recording this makes it extra amazing.
    I'd recommend you guys check out Moby - Porcelain. It's another wonderful journey.

    • @stuartaustin8130
      @stuartaustin8130 2 года назад +4

      I can't imagine Madonna doing half as good a job. Plus it would've been remembered as the Massive attack song Madonna sang on instead of just being remembered for the brilliant song that it is.

    You have to read the lyrics, this song was her farewell to the music artist Jeff Buckley who she was very close to & had recently died & was found in a River . It’s one of the most haunting yearning songs, & it’s so sincere & pure with its sorrow. 👌🎵🎶🎤🎹🥁

    I remember being 17, floored when I first heard this song. It was playing in the local independent record store and it set a fire under me. I asked the store clerk who it was and got Mezzanine immediately. It’s still frequently played in my rotation

    Dissolved Girl, from this same album, Mezzanine, is another very cool track that you guys definitely will want to hear. There's a very trippy video for it that is comprised of scenes from a bizarre sci-fi movie made by Luc Besson, the same guy who made The Fifth Element, except it's much, much, much more strange.

    You should check out “Unfinished Sympathy”- simply amazing! They also did a collaboration with Madonna for the Marvin Gaye remake “I want you”, which to my mind turned out to be one of her coolest tracks of all time.

    Elizabeth Fraser dated Jeff Bucket after Cocteau Twins broke up. Her first UK hit was a cover of his dad Tim Buckley's SONG TO THE SIREN. Elizabeth heard Jeff Buckley was missing and presumed dead in the Mississippi River as she arrived to write and record TEARDROP. Her emotion for her dead ex filled the song with sadness.

    Always great to see people get so emotional to great music. It's something that moves me like nothing else. This was such a terrific album when it came out, and it has really stood the test of time. Teardrop is one of the best on it too, so moving and Liz Fraser has to be one of THE greatest female voices of all time.

  • @OneDarkMartian
    @OneDarkMartian Год назад +2

    This is such a beautiful piece of music, so enchanting and emotional. The simplicity, the heartbeat drums, the vocal… just sublime. You should check out Massive Attack Paradise Circus. Equally as powerful but with a very seductive quality. That track crescendos in a way that just sweeps me away every single time. The power of music is something else, and these guys are masters.

    Not sure if you're aware of on going rumour that one of the members of Massive Attack, Robert "3D" Del Naja might be the famous mysterious street artist BANKSY or at least friends with him because he was in Banksy's Graffiti Artist group "The Wild Bunch" in the 1980's in Bristol UK.

    Massive Attack, the kings of Trip Hop! No matter how many times I listen to their albums, they will never grow old or bore me. It is like being pulled into a different dimension. They definitely were the soundtrack to my life for some time...They have so many great songs, especially on the "Protection" & "Mezzanine" albums. Try "Protection", "Angel" or "Inertia Creeps"...BTW, that heavy background beat to Teardrop is supposed to reflect a heartbeat, just in case nobody else has commented on it. It becomes more evident when you see the video.

    Hi bro’s! Helene here. Nice to see you. Two things:
    You both have heard Aurora, I know, and love her voice. Picture her covering this song. She does an outstanding job. Just for yourselves….check out one of her covers of this……
    Secondly: This is a genre of music called trip-hop. It originated in Bristol, England in the mid-late 90’s. Massive Attack and Portishead are probably the best known bands in this genre…..which is…as you can hear…pretty “trippy” and hypnotic. Very unusual melodic lines. Kinda dark. I discovered this genre through Aurora’s cover a couple of years ago….and it became one of the new genres I came to know and appreciate during the pandemic…….in my 70’s. Goes to show you are never too old to discover and appreciate new sounds and styles of music, if you keep an open mind. I would suggest Angel…the official video, as your next listen for this band….or Dissolved Girl. Both excellent and representative of this genre.

    SADE is an artist with a band who has been with her for multiple decades and you can start with her music from the 80’s and track it all the way up thru the 2000’s and it is WONDERFUL, soulful, melancholic, with a tropical island minor slant music. It is AWSOMELY enjoyable that will stick with you for your lifetime once you discover it. She is gorgeous and originally from Nigeria but ended up growing up in Britain and at 17 moved to New York then, somewhat Americanized. But, her sound NEVER lost their original flavor of soulful, jazzy, smooooothe, sexy. Is what you’d expect to hear in a smokey,intimate, table-club setting with live music.
    Songs to start with from early days that are classics of hers and of music period:
    “Is It A Crime”
    “Paradise”
    “Sweetest Taboo”
    Then you can move into:
    “Ordinary Love”
    “Soldier of Love”
    She has MANY wonderful songs does a GREAT show (which, in her instance, I recommend to EVERYONE that your 1st experience checking her out MUST BE LIVE (recorded). There are a number on RUclips to choose from. Once you see her live, then you can FULLY enjoy her experience from then on with or without live.

    People are saying to listen to more Massive Attack, but this song is kind of an anomaly in their discography. If you like the dreamy ethereal aspects of this song I'd recommend listening to the Cocteau Twins (same singer as on this song). Their album Treasure is a good intro. It's an 11/10 and every song is amazing.

  • @johansilencio
    @johansilencio 2 года назад +4

    While this is a great track, don't skip Dissolved Girl, Black Milk or Group Four off of this album! Angel is also excellent but like Teardrop it's one of the only tracks of theirs besides Unfinished Sympathy that ever gets reacted to, which is a crying shame. Another super group of the Trip Hop genre is, Portishead, who's debut album Dummy is simply amazing, I highly recommend checking out the following tracks from their Live at Roseland NYC concert, where they are accompanied by a philharmonic, Roads, Sour Times, Only You and Glory Box, I also highly recommend the studio tracks for Western Eyes and Humming!

    I love trip hop, especially Portishead and Goldfrapp!! I think the US had a similar music trend/genre called "slowcore." A great example of that is a song by the band Low called "Monkey."
