Yeah, it's also not one of my favorite Portishead songs, so I thought it was a strange choice. However, I absolutely love what Amy has done with the song. It took me a second listen, but I can honestly say I really love it. The instrumentation is beautiful and so different from the original. In fact, I think this may be one of those very rare times I actually prefer a cover over the original! It makes me very excited to see what else she has in store.

Not my favourite Portishead song, but it's a beautiful cover, and it's growing on me with every listen. Plus, it's great to see Amy trying something so different musically. Can't wait to see what comes next. Got to say though, I already can't be arsed with the inevitable bitching from certain fans....all those people that hated Aftermath for not being a standard album and not baring much resemblance to and Ev record are going to be hysterical after hearing this... You said it!!! I mean I just never understand the fans that bitch about how Ev is not the same as it was from Fallen. Look, that is never gonna happen again. You can't expect Amy to be in this box forever. She is getting older and has always been an evolving artist. She wants to spread her wings, and explore new parts of herself. I love being able to be apart of it.

I have to agree with you. Everyone is entitled to try something new. Look at Linkin Park for example. Other bands have done it too. Hell, Trivium has released a song...with ZERO screaming in the vocals. Anyways. I can't wait for more stuff to be released from her. Honestly right now, the new photos in HQ are on demand by me right now so I think I will just wait for that.

Hell, Trivium has released a song...with ZERO screaming in the vocals. Ummm... yeah. Exactly. Artists try new things all the time, which pushes some fans away and attracts new ones. We'll always see reactions like "OMG! The vocalist stopped screaming. Let's crucify him." or "This doesn't sound like albums X and Y. You betrayed your fandom. I hate you." I find this immature and unnecessary because we can't expect from an artist to be stuck forever in a very narrow style niche that made him/her successful. Art has to evolve or it becomes boring. Trying something completely different is a risk, but a risk that has to be taken. Sure, I don't like Linkin Park's latest album and I'm definitely not a fan of this cover but I respect their desire to show what else they are capable of. I know there's more to come and in the meantime I might just listen to another band half of whose fans are still in shock from the melodic turn in their former idols' music.

Plus without waiting an endless amount of time because she totally surprised us with it.

Amy Lee teasing us for months with photos and sounds --Excitement Amy Lee finally announcing a website that we all have been looking forward to --Insanely Excited .....Amy Lee not only releasing a website but, photos and a beautiful cover for free --Priceless Kinda bad but I think we get the point here

Oh, what a nice thing to wake up to! I was s busy with college yesterday that I had no time to countdown the hours, and I fell asleep rather early. And then I wake up to this. I didn't even realize how much I missed Amy's voice <3

I'm waiting for the release in Music to hear the .aac 256kbps! This song was unknown for me until yesterday so I'm seeing it like a new song. I like ballads and for me this cover is very cool. Not awesome but cool. I'll not skip this track in the album. And the cover photo… I really don't have words to express what I'm feeling. She is near to perfection! This photo deserves a new website just for her! XD
