Oh Wow! GEE! Christ! Speakless.
Pls don´t forget to save this video against the kids. You know. Its really UuuuuHH!
Apart from that I like porn – I have no problem to combine it with MA .. I like controversy and “break on throughs to the other sides” .. besides a documentation .. and yeah the org is a feeling really from other dimension. ;) … public dispute … Massive Attack have to work it out again! *lol*
Love this track and love this video. Already heard this live when (I think) it was called harpsichorded and was digging it then but am loving this mix and the video really brings a new dimension to it all. Can’t wait until february fro the album!
so hard, so exiting, so fustful – it makes me slightly crazy…
not suitable for kids at all, but it’s feeling really from other dimension…
and… i love it at last ;) :redface:
Hmmm, now then. Where do we take this? Massive Attack, that well known pioneer of the sonic dark and sometimes visual, combining new audio material with vintage porn…not too sure fellas I have to say.
You have, for years, tried to highlight the underclasses, the desperate, the disparate and the hard done by, does this new combination serve to highlight the plight of those in the new-world porn industry, the one that has become very dark compared to the seemingly easy-going version portrayed by the “star” and interviewee in Mr. Dye’s piece?
I for one am confused, if I’ve missed the point, then more fool me and I apologise, but on the first couple of viewings I can’t help but think this is just going to be misconstrued and misunderstood.
Great video – really!
Great idea, great song, an original!
Who said, that he or she thinks there’s no need for this video?
It’s not only about the fact that porn actresses and actors are human beings just like bus drivers or the people who work in supermarkets – perhaps these people are even more honest and real than other “normal” people? So what’s the problem?
Who are the real prostitutes in our world?
Well, I live in Germany and I have worked for 10 long and totally wasted years as a book and newspaper seller – I never want to go back there, because I know that I was a prostitute in the end. And I think that this is nothing special in these times. We have many many prostitutes here who have already sold their soul, their peace and their heart for nothing but money.
Porn actresses and actors know what they sell and what’s its worth – so do we???
@ Enge, yes, that’s Hope Sandoval :)
to me, this is a thought provoking video. i know there has been discussion about this elsewhere to,o but this is the first place i was able to get a chance to watch it from. i think looking beyond the obvious porn aspect to the human nature is important. the porn makes a strong statement one way or another and doubly so because it is from an era that most people on this board will not relate. the woman interviewed is also older than the people watching this video. these are perspectives we would not easily have in our normal lives. but despite these elements, the very human aspects are universal.
I’m a little bit shocked this is not art or something like that !
If teenager see this, i don’t know if it’s right to express this kind of sexuality on that way .
Enge, are you a feminist? Take it easy and let us believe that she really loved it. The lady maybe an exhibitionist with a slight masochistic tendency …. thinking that still, watching this made me feel uncomfortable – especially as she said she was uncomfortable !!!! Pornography often pulls out the darkest side of human beings.
Nice!!! Guess I’ll have to buy the Album to hear it without that docu stuff… *G* Consider it done, once it’s released!
Liked the voice of the singer (Yolanda?) of the live version better, but Hope is Hope….. still great, just love her voice, do more stuff with her!
And come back to Frankfurt, please!!!
If this video leaves you a little grossed out (old gal talking about getting diddled) but strangely intrigued by the contrast of sound and video, as it did with me, then MA did a good job. Cool beans.
Is this possible that their best song ever – the collaboration with Fraser named Silent Spring will be mixed and included ina future album one day? PLZZZ :)))))))))))
Hey,
@ firecat: not a feminist mate, just was thinking a bit deeper about the promo and it’s meanings really.
I also thought that Spelvin’s voice linked with the imagery and track was strangley symbiotic, I managed to *ahem* aquire the track from the nice people at Zane’s show and although still a fakkin’ great track, it felt like something was, missing…strane but true.
I see that Psyche is making on to Heligoland, I wonder what the album version is like as the one that’s on Splitting The Atom is going to take some bettering.
Enge, and others interested,
I think this audio/video combination also mean something to the people affected by porn addictions or those who are susceptible to that. Coincidentally there’s a chapter describing about it in a book I’ve been reading. Apparently, increasing number of men are affected by internet porn addiction: the nature of addiction is similar to cocaine addiction, and the affected cricks images rather automatically for quick fix; eventually developing tolerance sexually craving for stronger images; and become troubled physically and emotionally (e.g. feeling disgusted but can’t stop etc). Becoming slaves to own brain biochemistry that make them reinforces the habit, severely affected had compromised their relationships, jobs and own health.
But thankfully, our brains can re-adapt itself (i.e. it is possible to undo the bad habit). The author of the book claims that most addicted he encountered were able to go through cold turkey, and found their loved ones again.
If anyone interested in reading about that, the book is called “The Brain that Changes Itself” by Norman Doidge. Go for fairly readable chapter 4. If anyone is happened to be affected by the issue, good luck to you.
In the first and penultimate segments of Spelvin’s narration she expresses her love for the camera. How thrilling it is, how despite that she found some of the experience of filming The Devil in Miss Jones “uncomfortable” and “humiliating,” she loves the camera. In between she describes orgasm as “a mystical instant that doesn’t really exist in this dimension,” which also describes that which a camera records. Her last line is “we are our own devil” then the film burns–the camera, her devil–what makes her spin–ceases to exist outside of her, is gathered up and in that flame the mystical instant is made ordinary. Her face at 73 and her body at 37 are at once united and separate, discrete instances in dislocated time made whole only by her being (and her devil still there, filming her, loving her again).
@ Brizzle: you said exatcly what i thought, well done on expressing it a lot better than i could have done!
that woman’s pretty impressive, not many ladies her age would be as frank as her regarding their past…
Yes, why not this video. Everyone needs it, does it. It don’t find it at all porno. It’s shown lovely what we looking for, with our loved person. Special moments. New track support it’s fantastic … or vice/versa
so perfect. Seein’ her young as a prostitute -as she says- and nowadays just takes me away, because of her way to tell us her experiences. And this is not pornography, but erotic explicit material, it’s just art. Compare it to the trash talk shows on afternoon tv… it’s not WHAT you show, it’s HOW you show. And here it’s a higher level.
Also it’s so emotional and true what she says: ”orgasm is not something from this dimension”. Best words to describe best thing on Earth.
Kis Kids Kids don’t deludes yourselves. I am a lesbian and an artist. and I’ve been around the bloick so I know what pornography is and this is pure unadulterated porn. stop trying to convince yourselves it’s something other then what it is.
really? this video is bad? anyone who thinks that, that believes it wasn’t called for it, that thinks its a joke and got disgusted, should see ramstein’s “pussy”. now that is pure porn, totally uncalled a meaningless, like porn is!
now this isnt’s porn! this is kinda a documentary about it, and it doesn’t promote it, i thinf it makes the opposite, it shows that it is people that do it because they don’t find another options, not an object that we can film and sell.
its aboput time that a film like this should be done, to show the other side of porn we donts wanna know… it sends a message of morality that everyone sholud capture.
and by the way, we all have sex! we all are sex! so what’s the problem?
Skip and sasha have kinda shown their ignorance on this matter by wholly missing the point. This video does pretend to be anything it isn´t – there´s no veil and there is no pretention. It´s a portrait of a woman who was in the porn industry, who in some way was clearly defined by her brush with that industry and the film does not shy away from showing exactly what that entailed – to cut away or to censor that would be infantile. For me the film is extremly moral and I certainly wouldn´t say pro-porn, though I wouldn´t say anti-porn either – to put it into either catergory is to miss the point. It´s not film about issues (porn or whatever) it´s an intimate, candid snapshot of one woman (Georgina Spelvin for the record). Oh and I love it.
I´m with the last coment, this wonderful little film deserves some thought and not dumb quips or lazy moralising. Watch it, think it through. Magnicent stuff Massive Attack. Can´t wait for the album.
Will I be able to buy this video somewhere? I´d like to get the single too but I know that will be made available eventually, but I´m curious to know about this and the previous video posted here fro splitting the atom.
Absolutely fantastic,
the fact that you see her having orgasms when young and pretty doing porn, at the same time you see her old with white hair and humble is just outstanding.
Sexy, dark and twisted. Just how romance should be.
Well done Massive Attack. an outstanding combination of music and video.
wow!, sin palabras que se adecuen a lo que realmente quiero decir, será uno de mis videos favoritos del Massive, sin duda, y es genial escuchar a Hope Sandoval, aunque para ser honesto esperaba algo más explosivo de esa combinación. Pero me sigue gustando mucho la canción
Simone I’ve just seen that there’s a HD version of this just gone live on vimeo – http://www.vimeo.com/8521418 – well worth checking out, it looks amazing. There’s some really nice little details I missed in the low res version – check out what’s being reflected in her eyes!
@ Mark Hutchinson: In so far as this is a “portrait of a woman in the porn industry,” you can’t draw conclusions from a handful of words excised from an interview that lasted who-knows-how-long. She’s not even necessarily talking about the images we’re shown; its the editor who juxtaposes the words and images to create that impression (somewhat overdetermined by the “reflection” of images in her eyes). We have no idea what she’s really talking about or whether her words are in context. Your term “portrait” is apt because all we are seeing is the band’s creative team’s interpretation of a woman, or rather, selected images and words of a woman that that the creative team cherry-picked to convey *their* vision. Which, when you get down to it, is juvenile and trite. Personally, I’d love to see a long, unedited interview with Georgina Spelvin – she seems fascinating. But as for this video, I agree with Sasha – there’s no “there” there.
Taking into account the music, lyrics, film clips, and the final “God help me, I loved the camera” line, what this video tells you is that the band and/or their creative team believe sexy = slinky, “sinful,” “dark,” “devilish,” “infernal” in a vaguely Catholic sort of way. Which is just silly. Sex is a natural function; its a normal part of life. In this day and age, do we still have to dress it up in all this pseudo-mystical hooey? Can’t we put this “dark side of human nature” thing on the shelf alongside Adam, Eve, and the Garden of Eden?
And speaking of snakes, that business with the live snake was and still is just ridiculous. A snake is an animal, and like all animals, it does not want to have its head put near or in any larger animal’s mouth. Between poor Georgina having to act like she’s turned on by a reptile, and the poor snake thinking, no doubt, in its primitive snake-y way, “what the fuck, get me the fucking hell out of here” the last thing those scenes are is sexy. They’re not sexy – they’re absurd!
What a painfully cynical view. I wonder if Burnsey believes all film and music are so bereft of any truth or integrity or is it just this example in particular? I’m well aware that people can be edited to say that black is white, but I see no reason to assume that is or isn’t the case here. In fact one of the many things I liked about this video was that whilst the segments of interview we get to hear are brief they were refreshingly non-soundbitey, when Ms Spelvin does speak she is allowed to say her piece.
I heard the song today and instantly loved it. I am gobsmacked by the video, however. Pure genius. I think this is positively brilliant and the track overlaid to the vintage scenes becomes suddenly desperately tragic and haunting. Seeing Georgina Spelvin in her old age reflect on what drew her to porn is compelling. As much as I love porn and freedom in sexuality, I think we are oversaturated with it and with the obsessive need for carnal satisfaction. We are becoming quickly addicted to images over real bodies and what actually feels good. What’s most fascinating about this video is the close-up of pubic hair and real tits, which I haven’t seen in porn in forever.
The song is great. The movie is quite dark. The actress’ life is as sad and disgusting as every porn actress’ life.
Of course she loves the camera, it brings her much more money than being a hooker.
Neverthless I think she’s brave.
Now I’m wondering, what would think a 10 year old little girl who is interested in the music of this band after watching this video?
This should not be in the official website.
I must say: GREAT! But we’ll never see this video in Italy! Too hard for our false niceness society…
By the way… the actress is Georgina Spelvin – porno actress of the 70s.
Guys, met you at V99 and you both kindly signed my copy of Inertia Creeps, love the video and the song too. Didn’t know you were back in the studio until I heard the single on Radio1 today, can’t wait for the album!
Having sex in front of the camera, is a lot like being nude on nude beach. You mus remove the clothing which protects your virtue. Everyone is naked. It’s true freedom. And to swim naked is beyond Bliss. Imagine cool water all over your hot body. It’s like making to the ocean and vice versa.
I can not walk up and down the beach, but I can sit in my chair and be free. To remove your clothing is liberating.
I’ve made love to my boyfriend in front of the camera, but I could not watch it after wards. He could though and enjoyed it.
The music is fabulous and also “I Love The Girl”. Please come to Los Angeles. Air is here soon.
I love you guys eternally and I respect your Art. Also, please listen to Nineyears on Myspace under music. He worships you guys. ;)
I just cried when I saw this, so real, so simple, so close to what we are, near my skin and soul, and flesh and blood.
Thank you. Since I’m 14 years old (in the 1994) my life has your music as a soundtrack. You just make me cry. Once again. With this. So real. So near. Thank you MA.
Great song, great video. There’s nothing sexier than a confident woman. Her reflection and complete acceptance of who she is and what she has done is refreshing. Keep up the great work.
hmm… could have been an interesting musing on sexuality, aging, self-reflection, sadness, acceptance, defiance… but it’s sadly lacking in poetry… too heavy-handed. damn– the first 15 seconds set you up for something profound, and then it let’s you down. hope it’s not a metaphor for the new album…
simply a poem. one of the most beautiful of recent years. what is amazing i how this brilliant song challenges all your feelings when watching such a video. and there is no interconnection with porn. telling this porn is an insult for this cult movie. what is an insult is the sui generis porn we are watching every day of our lifes in low-cost media…
beautiful, dreamy track…greatly anticipating the album and the live show in March. as to the video, unfortunately for me it freezes just after the halfway point (coitus interruptus!) so i can’t offer a true critique but of what i did see, i can say that i had no issue with it in any negative sense (i’ve seen the original film, it was actually the first “porn” film i ever saw all the way through way back in senior high school). in fact, it kinda turned me on. i know it ain’t PC and all but every once in a while it’s nice to drop the politics and just get down to business…thanks MA, your shit’s always great to fuck to!
That was wonderful. It’s like a battle between reality and fiction… The music is just perfect, in my opinion one of their best, and the combination with simulated sex (which gives the impression that the act itself gives more pleasure than it actually does) makes us directly go to 7th heaven, or further… Loved it.
Chromosexual,I don’t think that is the message we should get unless we think that Massive Attack wants the world to have better sex.
MA – am I wrong to think that you guys are trying to push the moral envelope ?
Most impressively it that is the case, outlining the sex vs society problems.
I have to say , Placebo has done it first and their song is better from an erotic point of view. But then again, thats not your message, is it? Olkcohlick and many others think that you just want us to be horny
Brilliant… the juxtaposition between her now watching herself then, her eyes reflecting the action, and the sense of pride mixed with sadness, the lyrics and the beat – hypnotic and moving. We are our own devil… well said.
Una pena lo de este video, realmente massive attack me ha decepcionado en si el nuevo album nada que ver super x y luego este video para levantar un poco la voz por que no esta sonando su musica.
Has anyone listen the song and see the video and analizd them as part of the same piece? i mean you see the video but can you feel and hear the music?… guys try it again… can you see how it relates? I totally loved it
That’s really a great idea. Grandma talking about the explicit sex scenes she made 40 years ago, when she was about 35 years old. I know it’s just prejudice, but we really don’t expect that a woman her age talk about sex the way she does. As for the music, I love Hpe Sandoval, but I prefer everything on the previous version of this song, that was called Harpsichord. All of a sudden it’s just too fast and Hopes’s voice is not profound and misterious like the voice of that singer (sorry, I don’t know her name) whose video is available on the Net. In short: It’s not bad, it’s just not as beautiful as the the other one.
Taggart would sigh, they are. Will you wait for me? The entire San Sebastian swindle. What was happening to him? Why, yes, yes, of course. Shouldnt you want to find out the reasons? I am one of the dollarchasers, Dr. He turned and looked at her.
great track, although i have to say i liked the live version better. I was at their concert in Bucharest and when this song started you could feel that something awesome is gonna happen. it got quiet, all of a sudden everyone stopped to listen and we were all trippin’ to the same waves… video is also very interesting.
A strange hopelessness threatened underneath the pleasant thrum of release, but he fought it off. Savous crushed Hyles mouth with his, bearing the shorter man down to the ground. For a heartbeat, Nialdlye thought shed fall into Radins embrace and that Savous would follow. Rhaes markings stood out on his black skin, almost glowing in the amply lit arena. They deserved to find comfort. So handsome, she thought, relatively sure that he wasnt listening. Im looking forward to seeing the spell myself. He pulled her from Gala into his own embrace. Eyrhaens here, he announced quietly to the room, waving for her to pass by him. I…didnt realize until recently thats what Id done, but its true. Her righteous rage dimmed, however, when she saw him flinch. Ive gotten better at controlling it. She groaned, twisting the wrists in Tykirs grasp, rotating the hips pinned under Lanthans weight. He was on his elbow now, his lips a breath away from hers. Over, he commanded with a light slap to the side of her hip. She frowned a little and squinted to get as best a look as she could. There is no blaming yourself for this, Nialdlye. So, I know how you might feel. As shed known she would, she melted. His eyes closed the rest of the way, tongue teasing her fingertips.
paradise circus is such a great track, wish they could have played it at their awesome sydney opera house gig. never mind, the other tracks off heligoland were amazing. see the gig footage [11 tracks] go to youtube and put /coolhandluque after the dotcom.

Wow! That’s Georgina Spelvin and the movie is her in The Devil In Miss Jones from 1973. At the time it was considered an “artistic” porno film and was shown in mainstream theaters. Many relevant directors today hold it in high regard due to how effective it was at breaking barriers. Crazy. MASSIVE ATTACK ARE CLEARLY JUST AS EFFECTIVE AT BARRIER BREAKING. Love them!
I couldn’t find a forum section, so here goes:
Last night MA started their North American tour in Toronto. This is one of the first bands I’ve ever liked, and I have been a fan for the past 15 years. Yet, I have to say it was very disappointing.
Martina Topley Bird opened for them, and she did a wonderful job at keeping the crowd entertained. But following her act, we had to wait almost an hour listening to elevator music, standing squished in against each other, before MA showed up. And this wasn’t even in the front area. Two ppl fainted close to where I was, and at one point everyone around me was booing that band saying they were being disrespectful. And I think it was disrespectful to show up an hour late and oversell your concert to the extent that ppl faint.
You may see fit to delete this comment, but please note my friends and I walked out of this much-anticipated event for fear of being stampeded. The band owes us the courtesy of reading this comment, since we’ve thrown $60 a piece out the window to support them.
The irony is that I work as a concert reviewer for a number of publications…
[...] So I’ve been very influenced lately by some incredible movies and media. For example, I very much enjoy this clip, which is an interview with Georgina Spelvin. “The Devil in Miss Jones” is a great porn film. And if you have a moment, I’d invite you to go ahead and view the clip. [...]
this is popsong, so, and video too.
“we are our own devil” is excuse for taken place losers,i guees..coz some people break their life to fight with their own defects and sins…accept it as fact.
Is this Marilyn Chambers?

can somebody tell me the meaning of this song, i think it’s beautiful but can`t totally get it…
Dec 16 •
delicious;o)
Dec 16 •
Definately benefits from repeated viewings….very nuanced video. I find the old ladies voice strangely hypnotic.
Dec 16 •
If this video leaves you a little grossed out (old gal talking about getting diddled) but strangely intrigued by the contrast of sound and video, as it did with me, then MA did a good job. Cool beans.
Dec 16 •
holy crap i just had a nasty thought about 73 yo woman wtf! that’s not supposed to happen. her attitude and wisdom are flat sexy what can ya say.
Dec 16 •
She totally rocks – never heard of Georgina Spelvin before but have just googled her – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgina_Spelvin
Dec 16 •
I love this!!!
Dec 16 •
Great!!! Always the best!!
Dec 16 •
@Ghostchase: yes that is our beloved Hope indeed.
Dec 16 •
Very unusual video. Amazing!
Dec 16 •
Love it
Dec 16 •
Yeah, Hope Sandoval. I love her wonderful voice since the Mazzy Star days.
Dec 16 •
I agree with Pearl, I watched it again and it becomes more enveloping with each pass through.
Dec 16 •
So true
Dec 16 •
wicked track, intriguing lady, ouch for all the hair
Dec 16 •
AMAZING! Absolutely brilliant use of imagery. The content of the film (aside from it being porn) is so spot on with the vision of the song.
Great great job!
Dec 16 •
Is this possible that their best song ever – the collaboration with Fraser named Silent Spring will be mixed and included ina future album one day? PLZZZ :)))))))))))
Dec 16 •
Hey,
@ firecat: not a feminist mate, just was thinking a bit deeper about the promo and it’s meanings really.
I also thought that Spelvin’s voice linked with the imagery and track was strangley symbiotic, I managed to *ahem* aquire the track from the nice people at Zane’s show and although still a fakkin’ great track, it felt like something was, missing…strane but true.
I see that Psyche is making on to Heligoland, I wonder what the album version is like as the one that’s on Splitting The Atom is going to take some bettering.
Dec 16 •
brilliant!
one of their best song ever…brilliant!
come to romaniaaaaaaaaaa!!!!! :D
Dec 17 •
I think this might be my favourite video of 2010. Though I guess I’ll NEVER see it on MTV!
Dec 17 •
OH MY ! THANK YOU SO MUCH !
I was like “noooo they didn’t put Harpsichord on the albuuuuum ;__________;” BUT MAN YOU DID !
I’m SO GLAD ! I almost cried when I heard it in Arles, performed by Yolanda ! She was amazing ! So powerful and beautiful !
THAAAAAANKS !!!
Dec 17 •
This won’t make it into iTunes, that’s for sure.
Great stuff. Who is she ?
Dec 17 •
I’ ve upload the orignal movie on my blog.
So you ‘ll see that the music is totally different !
Dec 17 •
She’s “Georgina Spelvin”, a nom du porn. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgina_Spelvin
This is the only porno I ever received as a gift, and it still rocks. Now, in my mind, it has a brilliant backing track.
Nice job.
Dec 17 •
Everything about this rocks.
Dec 17 •
I love the song … I can’t wait to listen the entire album…. <3 Massive Attack :)
Dec 18 •
Enge, and others interested,
I think this audio/video combination also mean something to the people affected by porn addictions or those who are susceptible to that. Coincidentally there’s a chapter describing about it in a book I’ve been reading. Apparently, increasing number of men are affected by internet porn addiction: the nature of addiction is similar to cocaine addiction, and the affected cricks images rather automatically for quick fix; eventually developing tolerance sexually craving for stronger images; and become troubled physically and emotionally (e.g. feeling disgusted but can’t stop etc). Becoming slaves to own brain biochemistry that make them reinforces the habit, severely affected had compromised their relationships, jobs and own health.
But thankfully, our brains can re-adapt itself (i.e. it is possible to undo the bad habit). The author of the book claims that most addicted he encountered were able to go through cold turkey, and found their loved ones again.
If anyone interested in reading about that, the book is called “The Brain that Changes Itself” by Norman Doidge. Go for fairly readable chapter 4. If anyone is happened to be affected by the issue, good luck to you.

Quel film ! Massive Attack est toujours vivant… la preuve !
Personne ne peut resté indifférent sur ce clip…
Ce prochain album est prometteur !!!
<3 Massive !
Dec 18 •
Wow! Amazing….wonderful…let’s watch it again
Dec 19 •
This is just beautiful.
I love the delicate beauty of Hope Sandoval’s voice against the honesty of Georgina Spelvin’s commentary and the visual brutality of the imagery.
Dec 19 •
I think It’s too short.
Dec 20 •
I must admit I’d like to hear more…are there any plans for an extended version I wonder?
Dec 20 •
In the first and penultimate segments of Spelvin’s narration she expresses her love for the camera. How thrilling it is, how despite that she found some of the experience of filming The Devil in Miss Jones “uncomfortable” and “humiliating,” she loves the camera. In between she describes orgasm as “a mystical instant that doesn’t really exist in this dimension,” which also describes that which a camera records. Her last line is “we are our own devil” then the film burns–the camera, her devil–what makes her spin–ceases to exist outside of her, is gathered up and in that flame the mystical instant is made ordinary. Her face at 73 and her body at 37 are at once united and separate, discrete instances in dislocated time made whole only by her being (and her devil still there, filming her, loving her again).
Dec 20 •
@ Brizzle: you said exatcly what i thought, well done on expressing it a lot better than i could have done!
that woman’s pretty impressive, not many ladies her age would be as frank as her regarding their past…
Dec 21 •
Thanks to :@ la FIrecat ,@ Brizzle , and @Lauren L. for your comentaries. @ Laurent L. : I agreed whit your comentaries. Thanks. Cecilia.
Dec 21 •
Yes, why not this video. Everyone needs it, does it. It don’t find it at all porno. It’s shown lovely what we looking for, with our loved person. Special moments. New track support it’s fantastic … or vice/versa
Dec 21 •
hehe, mine is 69th comment..
the track and video is apsolutely fantastic together.
Dec 21 •
wow!!! it seems like pasolini’s films… on comsumption society
Dec 22 •
so perfect. Seein’ her young as a prostitute -as she says- and nowadays just takes me away, because of her way to tell us her experiences. And this is not pornography, but erotic explicit material, it’s just art. Compare it to the trash talk shows on afternoon tv… it’s not WHAT you show, it’s HOW you show. And here it’s a higher level.
Also it’s so emotional and true what she says: ”orgasm is not something from this dimension”. Best words to describe best thing on Earth.
Dec 22 •
Very unusual music video .. Great stuff. Better than Rammstein :)
Dec 23 •
Is this a joke? What does Hope Sandoval make of this? the thinest veil over porn I have ever seen.
The guardian readers will love it.
Dec 24 •
hairie
i like
allways massive this attacks
Dec 24 •
Kis Kids Kids don’t deludes yourselves. I am a lesbian and an artist. and I’ve been around the bloick so I know what pornography is and this is pure unadulterated porn. stop trying to convince yourselves it’s something other then what it is.
That is unforunate because the song is great.
Dec 25 •
really? this video is bad? anyone who thinks that, that believes it wasn’t called for it, that thinks its a joke and got disgusted, should see ramstein’s “pussy”. now that is pure porn, totally uncalled a meaningless, like porn is!
now this isnt’s porn! this is kinda a documentary about it, and it doesn’t promote it, i thinf it makes the opposite, it shows that it is people that do it because they don’t find another options, not an object that we can film and sell.
its aboput time that a film like this should be done, to show the other side of porn we donts wanna know… it sends a message of morality that everyone sholud capture.
and by the way, we all have sex! we all are sex! so what’s the problem?
Dec 26 •
She’s Georgina Spelvin…
Dec 26 •
Skip and sasha have kinda shown their ignorance on this matter by wholly missing the point. This video does pretend to be anything it isn´t – there´s no veil and there is no pretention. It´s a portrait of a woman who was in the porn industry, who in some way was clearly defined by her brush with that industry and the film does not shy away from showing exactly what that entailed – to cut away or to censor that would be infantile. For me the film is extremly moral and I certainly wouldn´t say pro-porn, though I wouldn´t say anti-porn either – to put it into either catergory is to miss the point. It´s not film about issues (porn or whatever) it´s an intimate, candid snapshot of one woman (Georgina Spelvin for the record). Oh and I love it.
Dec 27 •
I´m with the last coment, this wonderful little film deserves some thought and not dumb quips or lazy moralising. Watch it, think it through. Magnicent stuff Massive Attack. Can´t wait for the album.
Dec 27 •
Wonderful. I’d love to see this in HD.
Dec 28 •
The Devil And Ms. Jones!
Dec 29 •
ma che è?
Dec 29 •
Will I be able to buy this video somewhere? I´d like to get the single too but I know that will be made available eventually, but I´m curious to know about this and the previous video posted here fro splitting the atom.
Dec 29 •
magnifico
Dec 30 •
Absolutely fantastic,
the fact that you see her having orgasms when young and pretty doing porn, at the same time you see her old with white hair and humble is just outstanding.
Sexy, dark and twisted. Just how romance should be.
Well done Massive Attack. an outstanding combination of music and video.
Jan 01 •
PLEASE be on the CD.
Jan 03 •
wow!, sin palabras que se adecuen a lo que realmente quiero decir, será uno de mis videos favoritos del Massive, sin duda, y es genial escuchar a Hope Sandoval, aunque para ser honesto esperaba algo más explosivo de esa combinación. Pero me sigue gustando mucho la canción
Jan 03 •
I second that! Yes please!
Jan 03 •
Great music… but the clip : DON’T WORK…
Jan 04 •
How sweet!! loving this :)
Jan 04 •
Simone I’ve just seen that there’s a HD version of this just gone live on vimeo – http://www.vimeo.com/8521418 – well worth checking out, it looks amazing. There’s some really nice little details I missed in the low res version – check out what’s being reflected in her eyes!
Jan 04 •
@ Mark Hutchinson: In so far as this is a “portrait of a woman in the porn industry,” you can’t draw conclusions from a handful of words excised from an interview that lasted who-knows-how-long. She’s not even necessarily talking about the images we’re shown; its the editor who juxtaposes the words and images to create that impression (somewhat overdetermined by the “reflection” of images in her eyes). We have no idea what she’s really talking about or whether her words are in context. Your term “portrait” is apt because all we are seeing is the band’s creative team’s interpretation of a woman, or rather, selected images and words of a woman that that the creative team cherry-picked to convey *their* vision. Which, when you get down to it, is juvenile and trite. Personally, I’d love to see a long, unedited interview with Georgina Spelvin – she seems fascinating. But as for this video, I agree with Sasha – there’s no “there” there.
Taking into account the music, lyrics, film clips, and the final “God help me, I loved the camera” line, what this video tells you is that the band and/or their creative team believe sexy = slinky, “sinful,” “dark,” “devilish,” “infernal” in a vaguely Catholic sort of way. Which is just silly. Sex is a natural function; its a normal part of life. In this day and age, do we still have to dress it up in all this pseudo-mystical hooey? Can’t we put this “dark side of human nature” thing on the shelf alongside Adam, Eve, and the Garden of Eden?
And speaking of snakes, that business with the live snake was and still is just ridiculous. A snake is an animal, and like all animals, it does not want to have its head put near or in any larger animal’s mouth. Between poor Georgina having to act like she’s turned on by a reptile, and the poor snake thinking, no doubt, in its primitive snake-y way, “what the fuck, get me the fucking hell out of here” the last thing those scenes are is sexy. They’re not sexy – they’re absurd!
Jan 04 •
What a painfully cynical view. I wonder if Burnsey believes all film and music are so bereft of any truth or integrity or is it just this example in particular? I’m well aware that people can be edited to say that black is white, but I see no reason to assume that is or isn’t the case here. In fact one of the many things I liked about this video was that whilst the segments of interview we get to hear are brief they were refreshingly non-soundbitey, when Ms Spelvin does speak she is allowed to say her piece.
Jan 05 •
GENIAL!!!

This is good, toby dye has directed some interesting movies

Quite. Good vid by the way.
Jan 06 •
I heard the song today and instantly loved it. I am gobsmacked by the video, however. Pure genius. I think this is positively brilliant and the track overlaid to the vintage scenes becomes suddenly desperately tragic and haunting. Seeing Georgina Spelvin in her old age reflect on what drew her to porn is compelling. As much as I love porn and freedom in sexuality, I think we are oversaturated with it and with the obsessive need for carnal satisfaction. We are becoming quickly addicted to images over real bodies and what actually feels good. What’s most fascinating about this video is the close-up of pubic hair and real tits, which I haven’t seen in porn in forever.

disturbing: the old lady has so much sadness in her eyes, as if she lost all her passion.
Jan 09 •
Very cool video, I wanna see this movie
Jan 09 •
great video. and better music.
Jan 09 •
The song is great. The movie is quite dark. The actress’ life is as sad and disgusting as every porn actress’ life.
Of course she loves the camera, it brings her much more money than being a hooker.
Neverthless I think she’s brave.
Now I’m wondering, what would think a 10 year old little girl who is interested in the music of this band after watching this video?
This should not be in the official website.
Jan 09 •
really cool and stunning video
i think it’s a plus to the music!

one of the best videos i’ve seen in my life… the song… beautiful… I have no words…

Goooood Job !!

I must say: GREAT! But we’ll never see this video in Italy! Too hard for our false niceness society…
By the way… the actress is Georgina Spelvin – porno actress of the 70s.

Guys, met you at V99 and you both kindly signed my copy of Inertia Creeps, love the video and the song too. Didn’t know you were back in the studio until I heard the single on Radio1 today, can’t wait for the album!

Excelente, ya los estamos esperando en la Ciudad de México…. No existe mejor inicio de año 2010. Massive Attack Rifa y Rifa mucho.

SIMPLICITY & REVELATION
Jan 21 •
Having sex in front of the camera, is a lot like being nude on nude beach. You mus remove the clothing which protects your virtue. Everyone is naked. It’s true freedom. And to swim naked is beyond Bliss. Imagine cool water all over your hot body. It’s like making to the ocean and vice versa.
I can not walk up and down the beach, but I can sit in my chair and be free. To remove your clothing is liberating.
I’ve made love to my boyfriend in front of the camera, but I could not watch it after wards. He could though and enjoyed it.
The music is fabulous and also “I Love The Girl”. Please come to Los Angeles. Air is here soon.
I love you guys eternally and I respect your Art. Also, please listen to Nineyears on Myspace under music. He worships you guys. ;)
Love,
Victoria

I just cried when I saw this, so real, so simple, so close to what we are, near my skin and soul, and flesh and blood.
Thank you. Since I’m 14 years old (in the 1994) my life has your music as a soundtrack. You just make me cry. Once again. With this. So real. So near. Thank you MA.

this is genius, music and pictures, imagines are a perfect union!

The singer is Hope Sandoval the ex singer from Mazzy Star she is wanderful
Jan 23 •
Great song, great video. There’s nothing sexier than a confident woman. Her reflection and complete acceptance of who she is and what she has done is refreshing. Keep up the great work.
Jan 25 •
hmm… could have been an interesting musing on sexuality, aging, self-reflection, sadness, acceptance, defiance… but it’s sadly lacking in poetry… too heavy-handed. damn– the first 15 seconds set you up for something profound, and then it let’s you down. hope it’s not a metaphor for the new album…
Jan 26 •
Gorgeous song, beautiful video clip..
Haunting.
Classic Massive Attack…

Like a fist on my fu#@*ng face.

simply a poem. one of the most beautiful of recent years. what is amazing i how this brilliant song challenges all your feelings when watching such a video. and there is no interconnection with porn. telling this porn is an insult for this cult movie. what is an insult is the sui generis porn we are watching every day of our lifes in low-cost media…
Jan 29 •
beautiful, dreamy track…greatly anticipating the album and the live show in March. as to the video, unfortunately for me it freezes just after the halfway point (coitus interruptus!) so i can’t offer a true critique but of what i did see, i can say that i had no issue with it in any negative sense (i’ve seen the original film, it was actually the first “porn” film i ever saw all the way through way back in senior high school). in fact, it kinda turned me on. i know it ain’t PC and all but every once in a while it’s nice to drop the politics and just get down to business…thanks MA, your shit’s always great to fuck to!
Jan 31 •
Great music and a stunning clip. They belong together.
Feb 01 •
That was wonderful. It’s like a battle between reality and fiction… The music is just perfect, in my opinion one of their best, and the combination with simulated sex (which gives the impression that the act itself gives more pleasure than it actually does) makes us directly go to 7th heaven, or further… Loved it.
Feb 01 •
too bad : it’s not on the album :((

Magical.
Sexual Energy is the most important energy we have.
Feb 07 •
Chromosexual,I don’t think that is the message we should get unless we think that Massive Attack wants the world to have better sex.
MA – am I wrong to think that you guys are trying to push the moral envelope ?
Most impressively it that is the case, outlining the sex vs society problems.
I have to say , Placebo has done it first and their song is better from an erotic point of view. But then again, thats not your message, is it? Olkcohlick and many others think that you just want us to be horny
btw – live with me – my favorite..

Could have done WITHOUT the cum shot, the snake scene and the dude with the ’stache. Remind me to forget this link.
Feb 25 •
That’s really a great idea. Grandma talking about the explicit sex scenes she made 40 years ago, when she was about 35 years old. I know it’s just prejudice, but we really don’t expect that a woman her age talk about sex the way she does. As for the music, I love Hpe Sandoval, but I prefer everything on the previous version of this song, that was called Harpsichord. All of a sudden it’s just too fast and Hopes’s voice is not profound and misterious like the voice of that singer (sorry, I don’t know her name) whose video is available on the Net. In short: It’s not bad, it’s just not as beautiful as the the other one.
Feb 25 •
Just Amazing
Feb 25 •
Back just to say I’ve discovered the name of the singer when the music was called harpsichord. her name is Yolanda Quartey. Marvelous velvet voice.

Taggart would sigh, they are. Will you wait for me? The entire San Sebastian swindle. What was happening to him? Why, yes, yes, of course. Shouldnt you want to find out the reasons? I am one of the dollarchasers, Dr. He turned and looked at her.
Feb 27 •
great track, although i have to say i liked the live version better. I was at their concert in Bucharest and when this song started you could feel that something awesome is gonna happen. it got quiet, all of a sudden everyone stopped to listen and we were all trippin’ to the same waves… video is also very interesting.
Feb 27 •
Anybody knows anything about this new video for “Paradise Circus”?

A strange hopelessness threatened underneath the pleasant thrum of release, but he fought it off. Savous crushed Hyles mouth with his, bearing the shorter man down to the ground. For a heartbeat, Nialdlye thought shed fall into Radins embrace and that Savous would follow. Rhaes markings stood out on his black skin, almost glowing in the amply lit arena. They deserved to find comfort. So handsome, she thought, relatively sure that he wasnt listening. Im looking forward to seeing the spell myself. He pulled her from Gala into his own embrace. Eyrhaens here, he announced quietly to the room, waving for her to pass by him. I…didnt realize until recently thats what Id done, but its true. Her righteous rage dimmed, however, when she saw him flinch. Ive gotten better at controlling it. She groaned, twisting the wrists in Tykirs grasp, rotating the hips pinned under Lanthans weight. He was on his elbow now, his lips a breath away from hers. Over, he commanded with a light slap to the side of her hip. She frowned a little and squinted to get as best a look as she could. There is no blaming yourself for this, Nialdlye. So, I know how you might feel. As shed known she would, she melted. His eyes closed the rest of the way, tongue teasing her fingertips.

It’s what she would have wanted.
Mar 22 •
Wow…. Massive Attack, you guys always come out with great music & such interesting videos.
Mar 25 •
Wow! That’s Georgina Spelvin and the movie is her in The Devil In Miss Jones from 1973. At the time it was considered an “artistic” porno film and was shown in mainstream theaters. Many relevant directors today hold it in high regard due to how effective it was at breaking barriers. Crazy. MASSIVE ATTACK ARE CLEARLY JUST AS EFFECTIVE AT BARRIER BREAKING. Love them!

I couldn’t find a forum section, so here goes:
Last night MA started their North American tour in Toronto. This is one of the first bands I’ve ever liked, and I have been a fan for the past 15 years. Yet, I have to say it was very disappointing.
Martina Topley Bird opened for them, and she did a wonderful job at keeping the crowd entertained. But following her act, we had to wait almost an hour listening to elevator music, standing squished in against each other, before MA showed up. And this wasn’t even in the front area. Two ppl fainted close to where I was, and at one point everyone around me was booing that band saying they were being disrespectful. And I think it was disrespectful to show up an hour late and oversell your concert to the extent that ppl faint.
You may see fit to delete this comment, but please note my friends and I walked out of this much-anticipated event for fear of being stampeded. The band owes us the courtesy of reading this comment, since we’ve thrown $60 a piece out the window to support them.
The irony is that I work as a concert reviewer for a number of publications…
