Haunting, haunting lead single off Tricky's third album Angels With Dirty Faces, it mixes marching drums with a gospel choir and his own dark feel to create a great song. And video too. The single made #25 on the UK chart, b/w "Money Greedy".

Maybe the best song out of an album that, to put it simply, is the very portrait of an artist deeply confused with his own inner demons back then. And not only did it show in the almost impenetrable nature of the music, it also affected the final results, which were, at best, shoddy. I'm all up for breaking the rules and show artistic independence, yeah. But not at the expense of creating some sort of invisible wall between the artist and the listener. In short, Angels With Dirty Faces is what you usually call an indulgent mess.
