Favourite song by Massive Attack

[scooter1]

Hymn of the Big Wheel

Cracking shout that man, but just edging it for me is Unfinished Sympathy which i'd place somewhere in my top 10 ever songs

 

[Twinkle Toes]

God, they've been responsible for so many brilliant creations I find it impossible to pick a favourite. One of my all-time fave artists & absolutely COLOSSAL live. Marvelous Scenes

Eurochild

Unfinished Sympathy for me. One of my all-time favs.

'Any Love', just, for me. Although I pretty much cannot fault Blue Lines, the stream of conciousness raps on Five Nation Army, Day Dreaming and Ble Lines are class...
'Trendy Wendy, you know what I mean..'
But, really, I like everything they've done...
Listened to 'Hymn of The Big Wheel' as we crossed into the new millennium (a bit cheesy, but, there you go...)

 

[Carrot Cruncher]

Unfinished Sympathy is pure musical perfection. One of the few songs of any artist I could put on a continous loop and not get bored of it.

Angel is immense and I love the way it builds up. Horace Andy's vocals are a joy. The same could be said of Terry Callier on 'Live With Me'.

Honourable mentions to 'Safe From Harm' with, like US, Shara Nelson's beautiful voice.

Angel - such a brilliantly dark track that builds up to a fantastic finale. I feckin love MA

Is the correct answer.

Angel is immense and I love the way it builds up. Horace Andy's vocals are a joy.

As is that.

As wonderful as MA are, all their other songs are merely excellent. Angel has no peers, especially when played in a darkened room with the sound turned up to 11*.









*The only other two songs by anyone that sound that good in the same circumstances are Bauhaus's Bela Lugosi's Dead (12" version only please) and UK Decay's hugely under-rated and largely forgotten masterpiece, Werewolf, both of which carry the same fantastic air of menace.
