i like this one with the fountain footage better,but thats me.
lyrics:
As she walks in the room
Scented and tall
Hesitating once more
And as I take on myself
And the bitterness I felt
I realise that love flows

Wild, white horses
They will take me away
And the tenderness I feel
Will send the dark underneath
Will I follow?

Through the glory of life
I will scatter on the floor
Disappointed and sore
And in my thoughts I have bled
For the riddles I've been fed
Another lie moves over

Wild, white horses
They will take me away
And the tenderness I feel
Will send the dark underneath
Will I follow?

Wild, white horses
They will take me away
And the tenderness I feel
Will send the dark underneath
Will I follow?

I just recently discovered Portishead (thanks to Pandora), and I hadn't yet heard this song. I'm going to have to hear it a few more times before I can tell how much I like it.

The video, however, is nothing short of amazing. Now I have to move The Fountain up to the head of my Netflix queue. All my careful planning gone for naught, thanks to you!

Oh my god, how I love this film. Some of the most beautiful scenes ever been made. Sobbed and sobbed while watching it too. And, well it's Portishead, who have imo made some of the best music that ever was. Happily *promoted
