I really don't know, such a perfect catalogue do these guys have. Still, I can't think of anything by them that has wowed my quite like 'Machine Gun', so I'll throw that a vote

Yeah, Wandering Star is probably the third greatest live moment Ive experienced after hearing 'All My Friends' by LCD Soundsystem and the first few minutes of fucking shivers when I saw SWANS.

I know I'm in the minority when it comes to Portishead, as I don't really think they're all that brilliant. Still, they've had their good moments, and "All Mine" is probably my favorite of their concessions.

"It's such a lovely day to have to always feel this way" is one of the greatest second lines in history.

Picked "Only You". "The Rip", "Sour Times" and "Glory Box" were all contenders as well.

Roads of these. It's a Fire is very close to it, though.
