Colin Greenwood posted a version of the song on Waste Central, performed by Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood. Have a look:

Amazing. They should really add this to their setlist. It would be really great to hear this when I see them in Toronto!

Ha they’re just as bad as the rest of us on youtube.
(not bad as in performance but as in doing a cover and posting on interwebs)

That’s awesome.
I saw this song’s music video on TV and I didn’t know who it was but I loved it!
I made sure to wait until the name popped up on screen but my dog distracted me as it happend and I only got the end of it as it zoomed off screen. Somehow my brain caught the word “Portishead” and I typed it on youtube and found it!
Now one of my fav bands are covering it!

I keep watching and listening to this video. I really appreciate the fact that they posted it up for us.
A proper b-side or compilation release for this song would be great

this reminds me of those funny youtube videos with a fan in front of a webcam making a fool out of himself trying to passionately cover his favorite band
