    "comment": "Massive Attack at the time was a three-man production team: Robert \"3D\" Del Naja, Grantley \"Daddy G\" Marshall and Andrew \"Mushroom\" Vowles. They used various vocalists on their compositions. Shara Nelson, who also sang on their song \"Safe From Harm,\" appears on this track. \n\nThis innovative trip-hop track features a string section and various orchestral elements (the title is probably a play on the term \"Unfinished Symphony\"), as well as samples and layers of vocals.\n\nThe rhythm track is based on the bells found in the 1975 song \"Take Me To The Mardi Gras\" by Bob James, a jazz composer known for combining elements of dance, funk and pop.\n\nAnother sampled song is Run-D.M.C.'s \"Peter Piper.\"\n\nThe male vocal is a sample of John McLaughlin from his 1975 song \"Planetary Citizen.\" McLaughlin is a fusion guitarist who led the Mahavishnu Orchestra. https://tinyurl.com/338yvu9b",
