Since I got my new all singing, all dancing, mega-memory iPod (and sorted out the problem with loading on my iTunes library) I've been trying to hoover up all the stragglers in my CD collection that haven't yet been digitised.
In doing so I've been coming across some little gems I'd forgotten I had and this by Massive Attack is one of them.
My brother Derren introduced me to the band so thanks go to him. The track is from Protection, which is one of my mellow, winding down albums of choice. Of course I love the title track but Three has to be my favourite. It is it's haunting sound yet clarity of the vocal together with the soft yet intense beat that make it for me. Best listened to at night, preferably in the dark or on headphones:
