Do you remember this one? Apart from the "foreign" language part this was a somewhat untypical summer hit. Not at all accessible. Beeing featured in a quite sexy Levi's jeans commercial and released in 1997 when Portishead was at the top of their game obviously helped it though. Nothing sums up a Bergen summer more accurately:
"After the rain comes sun, and after the sun comes rain again"
I didn't remember the video was this good. It's class. Unlike most other songs in the genre summer hits this one has stood the test of time surprisingly well. I'm still fascinated how they on this track have managed to capture the underwater mood. Just makes you wanna jump in and lie about floating for a while. Every time the Portuguese parts kick in - still give me the chills! If you like relaxing music like this, I would also recommend you to check out another Smoke City song: It's Amazing.
