Music Video
The video for "Unfinished Sympathy" was directed by Baillie Walsh, and filmed in January 1991 on West Pico Boulevard between S. New Hampshire Avenue and Dewey Avenue in Los Angeles, California. Dan Kneece, SOC was the Steadicam operator. Scott Ressler was the focus puller. John Mathieson, who later went on to shoot Gladiator for Ridley Scott, was the DP. It features Shara Nelson walking along the sidewalk, unaware or uncaring of her surroundings, which includes drunks, gangs, bikers, disabled people and other; the three members of Massive Attack—Robert Del Naja, Grant Marshall and Andrew Vowles—gradually start walking behind her. The video was later paid homage to in the music video for The Verve's song "Bitter Sweet Symphony". The art director for the video was Leigh Bowery.

Famous quotes containing the words music and/or video:
“We often love to think now of the life of men on beaches,at least in midsummer, when the weather is serene; their sunny lives on the sand, amid the beach-grass and bayberries, their companion a cow, their wealth a jag of driftwood or a few beach plums, and their music the surf and the peep of the beech-bird.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“I recently learned something quite interesting about video games. Many young people have developed incredible hand, eye, and brain coordination in playing these games. The air force believes these kids will be our outstanding pilots should they fly our jets.”
—Ronald Reagan (b. 1911)
