I swear this band makes me feel like I am 14 again making mixed tapes. I don’t get excited too often but damn. I am feeling like crap right now (headcold or malaria not sure which) but this may have just cured me.
I’m geeking out some much I even included the lyrics.
I can’t deny what I’ve become
I’m just emotionally undone
I can’t deny, I can’t be someone else
when I have tried to find the words
To describe this sense absurd
Try to resist my thoughts
But I can’t lie
I’ve been losing myself
My desire I can’t have
No reason am I for
I can’t divide or hide from me
I don’t know who I’m meant to be
I guess it’s just the person that I am
Often I’ve dreamt that I don’t wait
Enjoy the gift of my mistake
Like then again I’m wrong and I confess
I’ve been losing my self
My desire I can’t have
No reason am I for

I love that song and it’s the best one on their latest album!

Haha. I feel the same way about Portishead…they bring a lot of nostalgia to my life, a better time of listening to , well, Portishead, and enjoying every minute of it. Great post!
Awesome cool to hear from some fellow Portishead fans. Third is brilliant. It isn’t a ‘first time’ listen kinda of album, much deeper than that.
