Portishead - "Strangers"

Portishead - "Strangers": "The nearly a cappella part near the beginning is nice, but I really like it for the counterpart it provides to what it leads into - a echoing beep, followed a nasty fuzz guitar and a deep bass beat. (Actually, this song does kind of make me want a lowrider that bounces.) When you add all that to the powerfully pained Beth Gibbons vocals, not to mention the 'snag' at 02:11 in the song, it's almost too much for me. I am totally feeling this right now."
