- Stone (b-side to "You Come Through" from album "Uh huh her", 2004)
I don't wanna kiss you
I've already kissed you
And you said 'kiss me again'
And all the hills were rolling
And all the clouds unravelled
Looked down upon our shadows
Looked down upon our history
And then you came towards me
But my heart has turned to stone
What if my heart has gone
The world is weary, tired enough
I need help to hold this love
Was it that you told me
That you'd learnt to unfold me
To read my heart like a map
To throw it away and not bring it back
No-one in this house is sleeping
We lie awake just listening
For something human, something apart
To hear something other than our own hearts
My heart has turned to stone
What if my heart has gone
The world is weary, tired enough
I need help to hold this love
But the words just grind me down
When your tears just tire us out
When the words just grind us down
No comments for 3 months, oh well here's one from me; This lady seems incapable of putting out a bad track! One of the most talented people in the music biz!!! Genius.
Nine years later...yes, i agree.
This song is beyond words: the lyrics, music, her voice, the guitar...everything
So raw. So real.
As close to god as you can get. Will never get over her
No one writes heartbreaking songs like her.
I love her and her Bsides.
Stunning.
love this again, and most likely again and again and again. i wish #youtube paid the artist per play!!
She always is so different. What a great song. I feel like my heart is stone sometimes...or that it is turning to stone.
ZZqezza. I have found so many PJ tracks tonight I have never heard before because of your uploads xx I Saw her in Glasgow- I cried when she walked out on to the stage. I have had the shittest few days- your uploads have lessened the stranglehold of lost love on my heart. With tears in my eyes I thank you xx

PJ fixes me daily.
She and Katie-Jane Garside aka Queen Adreena are the most underrated British female artists. Pure artistic brlliance shines from them both. x
@@MsWanda1985 Hope you're good, fellow Pollyholic.
Thank you so much for sharing this!
Η ερμηνεία της σε τέτοιου είδους της κομμάτια,είναι αξεπέραστη.
wowww!!!
She must know that her b-sides are among her very best work. It must be a conscious strategy to do this. But why? Sometimes artists don't always have the objective distance necessary to accurately assess their own work. Could she think that her b-sides are somehow things that were not quite good enough to make the cut? It is possible, but I kind of doubt it. This is another excellent one.
Tens years in the future and I just have to say as a artist (Painter,sculpting and engraving) who no longer can create art because of a progressive medical condition and can now see my art from a objective perspective I can say that yes, we do not see our own art the way others do and are our own worst critics.
I have so many uncompleted pieces that I scraped thinking they were awful and pointless but I now see the potential and see them as some of my best pieces and wish I had finished them more than any other pieces I've ever done.
Brilliant! ❤️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍👌🏼✌🏼
Love!
It's great to find some of these Polly rarities uploaded by ZZ. For many years I got ripped-off buying her many b-side gems.....I gave up on principal.
@briteness I wish she would release an album of B sides...I love Polly Jean Harvey xxxxxxx
This song is also on her 2004 EP "B-sides"
Anthem
Love this song...Has Polly ever listened to the Wipers ??? If she and Greg Sage could ever collaborate there would be no "Generation Gap"...
PJ Harvey is FIT.
FACT.
Yes
@briteness I think the b-sides of most artists tend to be better because the record company won't reject it for not being commercial enough. For some reason record co.s want to water down everything.
Artist can get away with a lot more when it's 'just' a b-side.
I generally only listen to classical music, but I have a terrible problem with opera (& the classically trained voice in general). The singers are too in love with the sound of their own voices, striving for an idea of perfection which doesn't exist. And there's always too much vibrato.
I suspect Polly, for me, fills the space left by opera. She attains the raw emotional truth it aspires to without melodrama, or preening self-regard. I simply believe every note she sings.
thank you ZZqezza
This is much better that You Come Through (which I find as much annoying as You Said Something) :)
I read that she opened up for U2 back in 2000. I feel some similarity between her and Bono as far as vocals are concerned.
coolio!!
sounds like 66 promesses
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is, then let's keep dancing.
