Official video of Massive Attack performing Protection from the album Protection.
This song is fucking immortal.
Why wouldn’t it be?
Indeed
Word.
Can Michel Gondry get massive credit for making this video? The building is actually 6 stories laid on the ground. All the window scenes where people are standing up and walking around are actually shot at a large mirror at a 45deg angle while the actors are 90deg to the view and are further down. You can see the mirror angle on the wall at 1:02 and 2:30. All the other shots are well built stages to make you think that gravity is down, but really all the actors are pressing against a wall or chair and gravity is in z-axis, into the screen. The planning and genius this all took to make one seamless shot is so incredible and it almost goes unnoticed until one actor starts throwing a ball up towards the camera. So good. 11/10 directing genius.
I'm too dumb to understand the explanation about the mirrors but I came here because I've learnt the video was taken in 1 shot..
It's one of my favorite videos. A true work or art.
I remember tripping acid in NYC one night, walking the tracks. Passing by apartments and buildings, peering inside every lit window from a far. Seeing everyone's personal little world. A little piece of everyone's life as I pass by. This video brings me back to those moments. Wishing and hoping everyone is doing alright.
Thanks internet friend
I love this

CLASSIC
Tracey Thorn, one of the greatest female voices in pop music ever!
Sublime voice and presence
The girl had everything
Absolutely! Totally and criminally underrated!
She don't get no respect
Magic ☮️👍
I was 15 when this song came out, 29 years later I am still listening to this. This song is timeless.
Same, I was 15 when this came out. At 17 I would smoke a spliff, my fleece hoodie on, fall to sleep with this playing. I felt so lost and alone. Now I feel alone but not lonely and not lost. I have so much love and so much strength in me now.
Tracey Thorn has one hell of a voice.
15 year old here now. Had no idea this was twice as old as I am. Time is weird. 😵💫
you mean came out on youtube? this song came out 1994.
Rip Bradley. Hope you're hearing this in heaven.
For me, Massive Attack is one of the Best bands ever!
Absolutely
Not only for you! 😊👍
Amen!
Three things I like the most about this song:
1 - Tracey Thorn's voice!
2 - The beats!
3 - The part where the piano starts till the very end!
4 - everything
@@caleron0 Yup!

@@audioamateur I forgot about the rain, dude!
but also the theme, the lyrics, the video. It all works together to paint a very specific feeling, that has no name, but Massive Attack orchestrated a song, for us to put our finger on it. That's the genius of Massive Attack.
What Massive Attack, EBTG and Portishead (and probably others) did during that period was groundbreaking, no less.
Add faithless,evanescence,cypress hill
I was there at their peak...heady days...pure nostalgia
So true. Massive Attack and Portishead literally changed my mind during the 90´s. I just can thank them.
The whole movement was just incredibly creative. Not forgetting Tricky, Mo Wax, James Lavelle, DJ Shadow etc. All that music against the back drop of britpop and the club scene too. So much music to choose from. :)

Shout out to all trauma survivors who feel this in their soul. Believe you can heal, know you are loved. You are here for a special purpose, hang on 💖💖💖
Love what u said there definitely struck a chord in my heart.
God bless xx
Thank you💖
Likewise shout out to all of the empathetic people out there that have seen people hurting or suffering and decided that though walking away could be easiest, that they couldn't forgive themselves if they left that person there just the way they found them.
Love to live, live to love especially if it didn’t happen to you 💚
My dad used to play this . Rest in peace . You opened up my ears to some amazing music x
I'd love to have met your father. Greetings from Mexico.
I lived in Bristol for a year.
I never met him but I love your dad
Lost my dad two months ago. I can relate to this. He also loved Massive Attack x
My condolences listening to this song is like your father were protecting you
🙏🙏Like Mine played Guitar...... Your Dad May be with mine somewhere playing Music......... 😔🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠
This is what you call a "Timeless Classic" ❤

I had a little girl almost 2 years ago. Things didnt work out between her mom and I, now I go see her when I have time off work. I dont get to see her as much as I would like. I miss her. I come to places like this when I miss her more than I normally do. I adore her. I imagine sometimes when she is older we might listen to this song together, and some of my other favourite songs. Music has always been my solace, my safe place and my saviour. To all the single dads out there- keep strong, and keep your head level. Much love.
Make her a mixtape of your favourite tunes that you want to share with her.
She’ll always have a Daddy💜Daughter soundtrack to listen to.

Single dad fistbump, mate 👊
The world is mad. I go out the back and put the music on. I play this all the time. I will love it forever.
At first I thought this song was about romantic love, but actually this song is about all sorts of love. Romantic, parent-child, friendship. It's about sticking up for someone, protecting them and making them stronger, but also accepting them for who they are, flaws and all. We protect the ones we love, and we love the ones who protect us. Parents, siblings, friends, partners.
Perfect!!
Yep!
yep!
Mentally I would play this track over and over in my mind tending to all the people I cared for as a nurse...gave me strength
Helped me through some dark times
That's really nice 🙂
I once met an old buddhist monk that was giving a buddhist talk on arresting the 5 poisons ( AKA 5 destructive emotions) in us as we go through life to created good karma and cessation of negative karma.
He instructed the attendees on reciting some buddhist MANTRA, which is a phrase, rhythmic or musical, again and again, until the negative feeling ceases.
I'd like to think that this song is your beautiful mantra for patience and compassion and care for your patients as you help them.
The monk also said that one day when we all leave this realm and we reach rhe afterlife, no matter where our negative karmas might impede us, mantras recited with sincerity and positivity would transport us to a place or state of being that is reflective of the mantra's purpose and purity.
When i read what you wrote, i'd like to imagine sometime in the future when you move beyond this world, it is this, your beautiful mantra that will bring you a place of protection too.
That's beautiful!
Thank you...
I love this comment! My mother Roberta(RIP)was a nurse .. she was such a caring and beautiful person.. much peace and love to all the nurses out there! The ones that truly care!! You are appreciated!
Genius track and still as fresh 22 years on. Tracey's voice is like a healing medicine.

Tracey Thorn........... drum and bass a marriage in heaven
Starting in the mid to late 90s, I would periodically catch a few seconds of this song while watching episodes of the first few seasons of the real world, but I was never able to find out any information about this track. No internet, mid 90s, you know the rest. It wasn’t until 2005, and completely by chance that I finally found this gem. Words could scarcely convey the absolute fucking elation and gratification I experienced when the case of the magical mystery song was finally brought to justice. Surely, everyone has had mystery songs that took a short eternity for them to find. What an experience to have.
The same happened to me a couple of times. Fellow 90ies kid, here.😊
I had that same situation with Unfinished Symphony. Just kept catching bits of it, couldn't quite remember the lyrics. Then boom - full track (and the internet existed). Immediately bought Blue Lines.
Luv your comment.
Two come to mind.
Pulstar by Vangelis. Heard it as a kid in the UK. in the mid 70's as the theme tune for a tv show on the BBC but never knew what it was called. Took seventeen years to find out that one when a mate at college stuck on a random tape one night and started blaring it out.
Even better though was Unsquare Dance by Dave Brubeck. Same basic start to the story but it only concluded when the yt algorithm shoved it under my nose about four years ago.
A world before Shazam..
Hands down one of the best tracks I’ve ever heard. The youth today will never have anything memorable to reflect on the past like our generation did. Was a great time to be alive. Peace and love
As much as I love this song and I loved the music of my generation I completely disagree with you. The youth of today will remember their music just as fondly as we remember ours, just as our parents remember the music from their youth as 'the best'.
There's still loads of great music being made today, by the way...
all they have is tiktok and instagram..
@@mindlessthought3296 That's such an unintelligent comment.
@@jaredburgess8381 There is indeed a load of good new music, but the listening audience is fragmented, and too little opportunity for the artists making the music to gain any real financial reward
💯👌🎉❤
A perfect song. Astonishing still, almost 27 years later.
@@wonkyal3097 Why does less informed necessarily equate to Blur and Oasis ? Bit of an uneccesssarily subjective overgeneralisation that isn't it ?
Strange, isn't it? When I grew up, I did not at all understand the 50's and 60's music my parents had listened to 10 or 20 years earlier (like Stones, Beatles and Elvis) And although I can appreciate all of the the three today , I'd never put them up on a Spotify playlist. I totally agree with you, though. This song will stay with me for the rest of my life.

Fuck I love Massive Attack. No other music evokes the same emotion.
Yep
When you makes love under influence it catches you very high
Always wanted this as the first dance at my wedding. My ex didn't. Really glad now as I can still listen to it without a bad memory.
Heard this song once - missed the title as the car I was in went through a tunnel - many years later in a store in Liverpool the girl on the counter play this - the same tremor went through me as the first time - luckily she gave me the title. Know nothing about music - but this is tremendous and so wonderful to hear each time !
You know enough to know this is a great track. This is from Massive Attack's second album Protection. Their next album is their most well known album and my personal favorite. Mezzanine.
The vocals you hear in this song belong to Tracey Thorn. You've most likely heard her voice before. She's a part of a duo called Everything But the Girl. They had a really big hit song called Missing. The song was famous but there is a remix of the song that is even more famous.
This masterpiece is definitely in the top 5 best trip hop songs ever.
Mark Zane Number One without any doubt for me.
Mark Zane #1 trip hop song of all time. It doesn't get any better. Tracey's vocals are absolutely brilliant. It's perfection!
Mark Zane Whats in your top five?
Nada Kurdi For me:
1.- This one. Protection - Massive Attack
2.- Portishead - Cowboys
3.- Telepopmusik - Breathe
4.- Thievery Corporation - Any song you could pick here LOL them are perfection always.
5.- Koop - Modal Mile (2 banks of 4 rmx)
Nothng better that that LOL.
DnPoe Good choice. :-)
Thumbs up if you still have this in your playlist in 2020
you'd be crazy to remove it
absolutely
Oh yeah 💔
TIMELESS
Indeedy
Will always be my favourite MA track, and that's no easy feat. There is an intelligence to Massive's music. The spirituality and depth of emotion through the lyrics and chords, that relentless, elongated bass beat and beautiful, simple piano melody...it's timeless and gives me ultra-frisson every time I listen to it (which must be going on 10,000 times since 1995)!
Same here 😊✌️✌️
Nobody will ever make a track like this again
Kind of split in the middle between wishing somebody could and hoping nobody does, both for the same reason that this track is simply a beautiful creation that stands alone!
Thank you Tracey Thorn for singing like a bird. Bless you girl.
Her voice is brilliant.
which bird.

typisch massive attack... I bought the album mezzanine in 1998 (was 14 years old) and it is still one of my absolutely favourites!!!!
Actually this sounds better thanks to being recorded 26 years ago. No autotune, little compression on the original record.

I would've been 4 when this track was released. I must've heard it when I was very young, as I have always loved it and I get a very warm feeling of nostalgia from it.
Massive Attack really are amazing, as is Tracey Thorn.
Massive Attack have done so many brilliant tunes, but this is the best. Tracey Thorn's vocals are sublime.
No matter how time will pass, this track will remain one of the best ever. It's so deep...
So proud to be part of that late 80's, full 90's and early 2000's generation.
Same Here.
Great isn't it? 😁
Best music era for sure
Same here man. We r old now but we were part of something amazing. Nowadays ppl don't know some many good vibes and values. Just fucking social media and shity non worthy plastic music in media.
You mean the last generation to not have its soul completely stolen by the Internet?
Yes, I wish I was younger. Being in your early 40s ain't cute. But so grateful that I got to experience the world when it was real and not just this digital crap.
Never turn your back on anyone who is struggling with life and needs a wingman we are all part of something way greater than ourselves! Live to love! Love to live.
Decades of her voice. Very calming. Something so simple that adds to one's life. A stranger's voice. Crazy.
Still gives me chills. As a parent it reaches me so much more than it did when I first heard and loved it.
I know exactly what you mean.
I love her voice. This song is a trip without drugs. Thanks.
Who needs drugs when you can really connect to music?
Amanda H Exactly!
Massive Attack have this amazing way of transporting you somewhere else with their music. When you lie down, meditating to them through headphones, taking in every little layer with your eyes closed, its close to ecstasy.

Never quite thought about it until i read this comment
I will always remember Massive Attack for the beauty of their lyrics, the sweetness of the vocalist's voice and the innovative sound and videoclips.
Just been reading Tracy Thorns biography, she says she wrote the lyrics in 10 minutes !
I'm so glad to see here so many of you appreciating this masterpiece like I do. This song speaks volumes in times like these and the importance of the human soul, and the fact that we are all connected. This has to be one of the most important songs ever composed! Bravo Massive Attack and Tracy Thorn!
“And I miss Tracey Thorn, like the deserts miss the rain!!”
Everything but the girl, my mom played that song too death, those were good days.
So true
I believe she writes but doesn’t make new music, I think. She’s more focused on family. You have to hand it to her for not cowing to the corporate machine, EBTG could have been a mega-band.
That 303 bass is like butter!
yeah definitively :)
What I love about nineties music is how adventurous it all was, these days every song sounds like the other and artists have been told by their labels to fit neatly into holes since it makes their music easy to sell.
This song by Massive attack is a good example of a song which was successful in its day but wouldn't sell today.
Hear hear.
Why do you think it wouldn't sell today?
Matthew Proctor
No four-on-the-floor beat, no sing along anthemic chorus, no autotune on the vocals.
I think they wouldn't be on the top spot of the chart but would have a massive following of festivalgoers and music enthusiasts waiting for their albums. The XX do have that kind of success nowadays, and they are inspired by Everything but the Girl and Massive Attack.
There were shitty music in the charts in the nineties too.
Id buy it....hell yeah!!! This is my new music to interpret in figure skates!!!this is 2020...thissou dsbrandnew!!!
This is one of the most powerful songs ever made, Love it to this day

@@kaylabey Only Tricky ever said he hated the term. He wanted to be known as "brown punk". Doesnt have quite the same ring does it?!

One of the greatest musical compositions ever made. Period.
Still sounds utterly brilliant..Tracey Thorn is such an underrated singer and the way the music builds is genius..
Still playing this song after 20 years. Timeless...
Had the cd when it first dropped.
lived 2 month in Bristol for a aviation maintenance assignment.
walking in that city streets everyday i could feel deep in my guts why massive attack music has that dark and depressing tone which stay with you forever
I was in the city time ago for business.. I perfectly understand what you mean..the city "plays" in that way.
11 months in my case. Portishead were still big, although the place was a bit of a let-down. Massive Attack just were in everything ...
Many hours spent at Temple Meads, the balloon festival over Hotwells, the Aussies got hammered in the Ashes for the first time in forever, the Airbus 380 made its maiden flight over the RR works, I watched it from down at the Cumberland Basin. Breakfasting at North Street diners, watching the worst Star Wars film ever up in Cribbs Causeway (never saw the Clown Wars or whatever it is called), walking the Downs at night, Coffee in Gloucester Road, waiting for my car to get fixed ... Good days, weird days.
Then I moved to the East Midlands and a new chapter started.
Huh..I'm an A & P for United Airlines at LAX..
These experiences are deep
astro farhi I’m Bristol born and bred. It’s a fantastic city to live in.
Tracey thorn is magic. This simply is an excellent example of brilliant music from the 90s.
Make them like this anymore, I doubt it
Defo. The 90's was a top era for music, Massive Attack played their part. I won't bother telling you my views on current 'music' haha ;-)
This is a covering velvet for any fragile human soul. Protection. Masterpiece in every sense.
I remember that time in the mid 90s when this CD dropped. After all those years it never got old.

+Fiddlestickz1 I want to go back!!!

+Bruhh trip hop x
Yes 90'S the best.....
One of the sexiest songs ever written.
Yes
Not too sexy for me (personally) more wholesome and feel good. Sheltering someone when they need it, being ones protection. Makes me feel very good inside
In case you want to hear what a perfect song sounds like.....Please hit replay! Peace from Detroit MI.
When Tracey Thorn received the request to sing on this song, her band EBTG was in decline, then out of the blue, this was released to huge critical acclaim and the EBTG track Missing which was a flop the year before was remixed by Todd Terry becoming a huge hit also. Funny how the world works for some artists. A magnificent voice with a stunning backing track. The mid 90's was where it was at.
Yes. That’s true. I remember these events. It was amazing how EBTG came back from nowhere. And thank god they did. Missing is quite an emotional song for me. As is this one.
EBTG went through hell just a few years before and Tracey's husband Ben nearly died of a terrible illness so that's why their career was in decline... they weren't sure if they would ever be able to play music again. Thank God they never gave up because the best of their career was yet to come!
I first heard her voice on Each and Everyone back in 1984. Absolutely amazing back then.
@@SquidProQuo80 They have a new album out the video for the first single. The song is called 'Nothing Left to Lose' The sound, her voice, the vibe. They still got it.

1st rave night. Travelled across light and time, through galaxies and back. Sun came up, Los Angeles, 5 freeway, 6AM. New mix tape, press play - "Massive Attack - Protection" . Driving for hours with light gleeming off the buildings, lost in the sound. No words.
Great band, great music, great writers and producers.
Each and every time I hear their music, I am instantly transported back to hanging out in a certain tattoo shop, where I first heard the soul-sparking sounds. I’d give so much to be back there..but I’m so very enamored with my luck, just to be given this lyrical connection..it has given me a perspective that I share to this day!🕉☯️💟☮️☪️
This terrific music video defines the 90s for me.
what, were you a peeping tom?
Long Beach, 2018, and this looks exactly like me and my neighbors
It's a long way from New Cross and Peckham but feel the same as we all did about this music, a legacy in itself!
Still one of the cleanest rhythms ever
What blows my mind is that this is like one of the top ten videos of all time, yet the music is even better. Looks at the comments: no-one even TALKS about the video...
