    I used to play this SO LOUD in my kick ass stereo at 3am totally pissed dancing around my living room in London. In the morning, late morning, I would ask my kindly elderly widowed neighbour if she was disturbed by the loud music and she always said “no darling you just have fun”. She was sweet.

    I am forever a 16 year old boy in love with Beth. Holding that cigarette, delivering some of the best our culture will ever have to offer.
    This song is so timeless and sultry. I have no shame singing it as a guy. I do quite frequently.

Beth Gibbins performance was SO intense, her eyes connected with every person in that audience. At the end of the show she jumped down in front of the stage and shook hands/exchanged hugs with everyone in the front row, including me! Set a bloody high bar for other vocalists to meet after seeing her :)

    So don't you stop being a man
    Just take a little look

    Sow a little tenderness
    No matter if you cry
    Give me a reason to love you
    Give me a reason to be a woman
    I just want to be a woman

    Freaking genius at work here. Portishead was just incredible. Beth being surprisingly audience engaged here. Very Billie Holiday phrasing at the opening few lines, great groove, what's not like? Compare this to most of what passes as innovative pop/rock in 2020 and the comparison is pretty stark. We were lucky to have been alive when music like this was conceived , recorded and performed.

      I assumed it was a joint, not a tobacco cigarette. Personally, its no big deal either way, but it does change the "vibe". I mean, lonely and desperate, or DESPERATE?!?
