"Glory Box" is a single by Portishead, released in 1995. The title song samples "Ike's Rap II" (from "Medley: Ike's Rap II / Help Me Love" from the "Black Moses" album (1971)) by Isaac Hayes. The music video features lead singer Beth Gibbons dressed as a man.
The song is a love song, featuring the frequent refrain, "give me a reason to be a woman."
It can be viewed as an anthem for female empowerment and liberation from traditional gender roles. It celebrates the beauty of being a woman, and encourages the listener to embrace their femininity and own their destiny. It also speaks to a broader theme of breaking free from oppressive expectations placed upon us by society and taking control of our own lives. The song's message is one of determination, strength, and resilience, as signified by the lyrics "Give me a reason to love you / Give me a reason to be a woman / I just wanna be a woman".
