Portishead
"Glory Box"

I'm so tired, of playing
Playing with this bow and arrow
Gonna give my heart away
Leave it to the other girls to play
For I've been a temptress too long

Just. .

Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be ee, a woman
I just wanna be a woman

From this time, unchained
We're all looking at a different picture
Thru this new frame of mind
A thousand flowers could bloom
Move over, and give us some room

Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be ee, a woman
I just wanna be a woman



So don't you stop, being a man
Just take a little look from our side when you can
Sow a little tenderness
No matter if you cry

Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be ee, a woman
Its all I wanna be is all woman

For this is the beginning of forever and ever

Its time to move over... ...

2. I hear ya
I have a buddy in Manhattan that I was talking to tonight and he said he never got into Portishead. I had him log on to listen to it, and he is HOOKED.

It is a great martini bar style song. Very evocative. :evilgrin:

4. Me too
I'm listening to Sour Times right now.

Portishead is one of those way overlooked bands of the 90s. In a way, I prefer it that way. There hasn't been one person I've recommended them to that hasn't enjoyed it, so they're like a delicious secret.
