She’s the most soft spoken person but her music is like a monster
❤ rock on
It is hard to wrap your head around the fact that this is the same person.
r.i.p. the honestly, savagely, unflinchingly brilliant steve albini. the finest producer of all.
DEVASTATED 😢
Besides the whole pedophilia thing..
"Steve Albini and working with him changed the course of my life. He taught me so much about music, and life. Steve was a great friend - wise, kind and generous. I am so grateful." - pj harvey
@@asong4thedead everyone's a pedo if you dont like them enough
He knew how to mic a snare better than anyone. Or at least at good as those Cali dudes.
i get impressed by how a simple video like this can transmit so well a feeling of confidence, authenticity, and uniqueness, love u PJJJJ
and to think when she wrote most her her biggest hits she was like 18 or so.. stunning woman inside and out 🖤
She is, without any doubt, one of the most talented, committed and serious artist around.
She is biggest thing in the 90's thats for sure - A decade
@@stevanbg66 get real dude.
@@051963mf she is one of them for sure
Oh my god her personality is just so addicting
Underrated and way ahead of her time.
I've never underrated her.
Underrated?
Yeah pretty underrated compared to the plastic pop dolls... but who cares? Pj Harvey is one of the most amazing, unforgettable girls ever in music history! My favorite ever! But at the right time...She's like Patti Smith from the 90s but better!
@@vinyldiary6664 ♠️🃏🎭♟🎯
man she just oozes confidence. so cool and inspiring.
She has strength , but is truly vulnerable. Bears soul.
Already know😎
And yet she so timid in person....
She is high as a fucking kite on (at least) MDMA.
@@jrwhite3950I would not describe her as timid in person. She has a very unpretentious and dignified attitude yet always comes across as confident and assured about her artistic visions.
I've had a big crush on her since the 90's. Her confidence, earthy natural sexiness, and huge talent and creativity are simply magnetic, and never more on display than in this video.
Earthy is the perfect description for her. It’s just like she grew straight out of the earth like a force of nature. I’m in love with her.
Hell yes
been listening to her for over 25 years and i'm still not bored
Legitimate art does not age. Most of the crap music today is overproduced canned bs that nobody will care about in a few years.
A Master Piece !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree 100%! I mean how could you possibly be bored with her hot tunes, deep lyrics and those wild-ass improvisations? They all mesh together for a fascinating artist. I loved her from the very first time that I saw her. STILL just totally unbelievable.
Same here!
@@anselmopitombeiraneto5307p⁹ñ0ñ9ññ
Her first 2 albums are simply incredible. Intense, dark, raw, and explosive rock n roll.
PJ Harvey is a Kurt Cobain in a shirt
First two? Are you crazy? To bring you my love is one of the best albums ever made and her discography is so much more than these first 3 aswell
@jens2049 Rock n roll is a unique thing - blues based and highly rhythmic. Her other albums are great, but they're not rock n roll records. The first 2 records are loud and nasty rock n roll records and I personally like them more for it. That's all I was getting at.
This video is the spiritual ancestor of Radiohead’s “Lotus Flower”.
damn! I was just about to type "Thom Yorke was here."... and then saw your comment. Beat me by 38 min! Kudos
Pretty black and white of looking at it
and death grip's You might think he loves you for your money but I know what he really loves you for...
Fun fact : Kurt Cobain mentions her multiple times in his diaries. He must have felt she'd become huge. And he was right.
This album was produced by Steve Albini, who also produced In Utero.
Yep, he even went to see her live a few times. just read it in Nirvana Manager's new book about Kurt "Serving the Servant"
Could you imagine this fucking couple?!
Vinyl Diary666 dont remind us on what we lost out on 😭
@@thewedge8823 Really ? Thanks for your answer, I missed it. And I actually wanted to know that. I also missed Steve Albini AMA on Reddit where I could have asked him directly...
so thanks again !
Not produced, recorded
Polly is just a fucking badass! The real deal
I’m 14 atthe moment and I absolutely love PJ so much. What a musical genius who a lot of people, will never appreciate or understand her art. I started hearing her music around the house when I was 8 and when I was about 11 or 12 started properly listening to her. I will always come back and listen….
No one cares rhat youre 13
so glad other people my age love her too
@@phoenixocm yeah me too, I never really see people my age who like her….or even know who she is
So glad you discovered her!
I discovered her when I was like 17+/-? I'm 50! now, I love her old recent stuff, contemporary & what's to from Polly Jean Harvey!
the world would be a lot smaller without songs like this
That energy tho👀
this is like when you're alone wearing headphones lip-synching with music blasting, but from outside it's silence
What ever she does is pure poetry
I love her expressions, her face is so beautiful
I've been in love with her voice for 25 yrs. Love watching her videos and performances from this period of her career.
She's awful
I wish I could paint her!
Marylin Monroe Go back to your grave
PJH is way more complicated than a beautiful face/body and I love that.
Female artists from the 90's have yet to be surpassed.
And males.
100% agree
I agree 👍 💯
Facts
mmm..... try Annie Clark, Brandi Carlile, Allison Russell
Do you feel the drum? The snare? The Guitar? Raw, raw, raw!!!! Why? Steve Albini production!
The early 90s had so much amazing female rock artists
She has so many incredible songs that are unique to her. PJ is a genius.
She's a genius. And a real humble spirit. Still writing great music in 2019. We love her since the 90s.
One of the sexiest things of her is her attitude and confidence, She is fire
I love her guitar. Her playing is always beautiful.
PJ Harvey is an amazing artist! So talented. I’ve had all her albums on rotation for years and years.
What a ARTIST! Mind blowing
I think what people may have a hard time understanding about PJ is her authenticity and lack of pretension. Music is force fed and manufactured and churned out in such a way that we become accustomed to what we THINK we like, because it's safe and simple and popular. Modern music and modern audiences don't want artists that challenge us or take us outside of our safety zone, which is exactly what Ms. Harvey encompasses. The thing is, she doesn't even realize she's doing it because it just...comes OUT of her; it's so organic and yes, raw. I doubt she even realizes (or cares) what a musical genius she is or the influence she's had and will continue to for a long time. All hail PJH.
Yes Elise Bach, and the baseline is being raised
just like sonic youth. purely pouring out.
Yes.....what you said totally encapsulates how I feel about it...no one wants to be challenged and want to stay in their safe little comfort zones and never leave...it sickening!
It is authentic but at the same time her first five or six albums the protagonist is never her (male, female, mythical is the voices in the songs..)... It is always a character, like subtler Bowie really. And ways she was in costume basically on stage and how she is quite reserved and shy but onstage is larger than life reminds me of Bowie.
This doesn't challenge me, or takes out outside my 'safety zone' This just a piece of good sleazy sounding rock, it's nothing new. All of her stiff is great which is why she sells out concert, shifts albums, top charts, and is highly critically acclaimed. And her more recent output is better than her early stuff.
I'm a new fan. This musician is AMAZING. How did I miss her im 46?
She was always on the margins, never quite hitting the big time of mainstream success. While alternative rock did have a niche for female artists in the 90s, most of it was and remains very dude-centric. Also, you had people like Alanis Morisette and Gwen Stefani who were much more acceptable to mainstream ears, eyes and sensibilities, which drew attention away from gems like our Polly here.
This album holds a seriously special place in my heart. It was the first album I bought at the old Tower Records in Austin, Tx on The Drag after moving there at 17 in 1993. Not only is it a brilliantly powerful album, song and performance wise, it is also a masterclass at simplistic studio techniques. The whole album screams my first hard earned freedom, finally leaving New Orleans, true independence at that young age. I will always cherish this.
blech... masterclass...
I bought it at 14 when it came out it scared me but I loved it too still listen to it one of the best ever
If I were a female rocker I'd want to be like her, she's a complete artist ♡
Yeah, she kind of reminds me of Kate Bush in a way. She totally owns what she does and looks at it like an artist does, she doesn't just see it as "product".
Why don't you become one? Nothing's stopping ya!!!
Honest to God we need more.
^ What she said
Go get yourself a cheap guitar and get started! We need more, like Jo said
listened to Rid of Me last night - hadn't played in a while. It's just simply a masterpiece. the whole thing. Then tension in songs like man-size and yuri g is just phenomenal. That is the word for the whole album "tension", and phenomenal would be the album's rating.
Her sound isn’t this floral bouquet of sound… it’s this massive, raw and gasoline of sonics wrapped within her howl as well as that guitar that cuts with a bomb of British stiff upper lip. Pj Harvey at her best and a masterpiece of sound within this song and the entire album!
Steve Albini production at its best.
i watched this video about 30 times these past few days i am so hypnotized by her and her voice
@tecdessus welcome to the club.
Thanx Daisy, i was hoping I wasn't the only1.
My first time hearing PJ, and I'm fuckin blown away. Wow
She’s been blowing my mind for 27 years. Check out “Dress Live 2003” and “Working For The Man Live 2016”.
It's clear to me she is a musical genius...
N
Crystal clear!
Most underrated rock album of all time.
Probably because of Albini's sound production.
Won't go loud enough
Kinda how the album is mixed.
@@matthewhill5895 There's a guy that did an independent private remix of a lot of her early stuff to boost her voice in particular and the overall levels. He Goes by "Zararity". Search "Zararity PH Harvey" in TH-cam.
You r equipment isn't loud enough!
Now I know where Thom York got his inspiration for the "Lotus Flower" video
Was working at a restaurant many moons ago, walked into the kitchen and one of the chefs was playing Rid of Me. I said " who is that?" I adore her and she is still making amazing music.
I absolutely love this video and song! One of my favorite from her!
one empty room, no special effects, no expensive costumes or dancers, none of that shit, just ONE WOMAN doing her thing, could you do a cheaper and better performance?
+Sini Sia oh yeah there she is. Very real as I like singers. Music ufff even better,.
+Sini Sia
I loved her first few albums...4-track is amazing...
She's great though...
Hard to constantly be so raw and on edge.
100% authentic
I'm glad she didn't fall into the trap of quenching people's thirst for self destruction.
That's youth for ya. Rock is all about the youthful, dangerous, sexual energy that is in all of us, but that can't be contained for a certain span of time....
Mmm, low production-values and yet completely compelling. I could watch her all day.
solo se precisa ser buena
2:12 earring falls out. She seamlessly incorporates it into the performance.
it was a booger......she is rubbing her nose right before that happens..........and she looks on her hands right after to see how big it was........
I always thought she had a cold too, but maybe earring or ear piece? 🏴
@@MrPioneerlight2011 I thought so too but it's the earring; keep your eyes on it
2:10 earring
i saw the band on this tour, Rid of Me. Vancouver BC, i was 19. i remember watching the opening act and looking to my right and right beside me...PJ Harvey!
TheJambees ain,t she just all full of herself,id say my size,little cutie
Wow! Sounds like a great time! Awesome
damn why do I always find the great ones soooo many years later! Wow, what a great backup band too! Fuck!
PJ really shows her dance genius here, big influence on my karaoke performances.
Heard this live in current tour and it still sounds freaking amazing 🔥
Looks like she has fun. Many don't get her sense of humour.
Most people don't even get the 90's.
strange... i cant think of any other video ive seen that does this. pj harvey kicks ass.
I found her recently totally awesome. She's on a different level. Only song I knew before was Down by the Water I just never knew it was her lol. Whenever I hear shit music now I come home and put on PJ to cleanse my soul.
I love PJ harvey!!!!
P.J. Harvey can do whatever she likes.
She's beautiful
This is still the sexiest music video I’ve ever seen.
I love the fact that some people don't get her. Makes me feel I am still on to something special that not many know about.
I don't thing you have to worry about her popularity,all my freinds and family in Bristol,VA a mountainous "Hillbilly" town of 30,000 know of her and lover her.She's play in the back ground of the more mellow bars,etc.
I get her. I`m a bit weirdo myself :) Love her.
Considering that she has her own "VEVO" channel and that some of her videos have roughly 2mil viewers, has been on letterman, and has preformed with bjork, I doubt there are many people out there that listen to this genre that don't "get her."
So much for having something "special" right?
James Brewer John Doe it's so cool that you so completely shot mykylc down, and trashed his/her enjoyment of the piece. You must feel really superior now, which is good. Well done.
pbridge1300 I love that some people don't get the Beatles makes me feel like I'm cool for liking them
There's only one PJ Harvey.
An exquisite, over the top masterpiece.
She's a genius witch.
The first time I saw this video was on MTV's "120 Minutes". I used to VHS tape that show every week. Brings back a lot of memories.

Thanks
@@elisavieira737 thx
We all know this music is perfection, but... wow, PJ Harvey has got an amazing figure
shes so crazy love her
I first saw this video as a teenage boy and it really messed with my head. In the beginning I was like "ok, she's trying to be sexy here, standard video" but then NOPE. It felt like the video wasn't aimed at me, like she was doing her thing and being a weirdo and I was FASCINATED. In the context of 90s music videos this was really something else.
so you now understand PJ's music and others like it. challenging the standard male notion that everything is about them and for them.
She wasn't trying to be sexual or a weirdo. She's talking about how women are taught to hate their femininity and "stay in their place", in a state of "less than", strive to be "man- sized" , yet , when a woman DOES NOT act "feminine", she is hated even more. Damned if we do , damned if we don't. And we still are.
@@TheBeezusjones I think you're reading too far into it. He's talking about how she acts in the video - which is goofy and weird - not about the depths of the thematic angle. Even though the song's theme may be especially resonant, some videos of the time were very spontaneous and lighthearted and didn't reflect the nature of their songs.
I just thought it's someone rocking out in their bedroom when no one's watching. Slightly awkward look but like a release, empowering - girls expected to behave and wear pretty clothes or whatever social norm not goofy.
"As a male, i was fucked to find a woman's music video WASNT AIMED AT ME."
Says it all.
She's an exceptional Artist.
Wow. THAT is charisma.
she’s so cool i can’t even comprehend it she’s just incredible
PJ Harvey is a goddess & this song rocks . love it
One of my alltime faves from Polly Jean. You could dig your way down down down to the bottom of the meaning of this song & all you'd discover is a secret door behind which is more meaning. Stellar writer, guitarist, performer.
this is what freedom looks like.....love u PJ
HARD-ROCK !
Director: Ok PJ, here's the video idea, you in a chair.
PJ: Sounds good to me.
Oh god, this is exactly how my mom dances.
I never realized until just now how awesome my mom is.
JacobTefft That is awesome......
Oh good, my kids wont grow up embarrassed. Not that it would stop me.
Top comment mate!
Very cool mum
sí.
Polly, Tori, & Bjork were the powerful trifecta of 90's female greatness. Untouchable.
First time I heard this song, very cool song, very unique. Love her.
Butthead: "This is really noisy" Beavis: "Noise is cool"
Beavis: "Heh heheh. I like chicks that have their own room".
Butt-Head: "Yeah, A-huh huh. She needs, like, some posters and stuff. A-huh-huh".
Lmao
Yeah. Heh-hm. And some barbed wire.
they'd be terrified of her
@@ZorbaTheDutch Wire, wire, WIRE!
1:11 huh huh whoa check it out butthead...
She's taking the piss in this. Love it
gotta luv an artist who doesnt stick with something that conformity says works , but keeps searching.....on...and on....and on.... Isnt life about the search?
Brilliant
she is everything that every single female rocker aspired to be.
She has more balls than these pseudo male rockers!

Uh - she's everything ANY rocker aspires to be.
one of my favorite recordings ever
Uff...you fall in love instlanty!!
Polly doin what only Polly can do well. Holds your eye and drills her way in.
"Dress" was the first song I heard from her, shortly after its release in 1991 on MTV Europe's 120 Minutes (yeah, MTV used to have some kindling of goodness within), and I was hooked. "Dry" is a great first album, but when the so called misogynist Steve Albini produced her second album, it was something stellar. Also, get the "4-track demos" if you can. Her vision and Albini's are very close, but distinct and ultimately different.
Forgot how brilliant this was... a true artist
Damn its 2023 and shes still cool as fuck
60 Songs That Explain the 90s sent me here, thanks Rob!
Minimalist simplicity primal art
I bought this album at 14 and it scared me and excited me still listen to this day
Another good job by Steve albini capturing raw rock
Шикарная женщина.
This is literally the best music video in the history of music videos
This is just sooooo raw! This is proper R'n'Roll!
Ohh hell yes Polly!!! HOW I adore this WOMAN 😍💃💘
What a fabulous song...and performance!
Love this!!!! PJ Harvey a pure artist!
This is art...
And?
Best female artist of all time.
Mr. Alfi Solomons has entered the backery.
Few singers can match PJ when they sing in their granny knickers and a short top.
That's what like about this video. When I first saw this video at 14 years old I received a serious enlargement and released stuff out of me. She looks hot in them kickers. I love seeing women in those kind.
Just discovered Polly and creeped her past for a minute one day last week... I am sofa king Enchanted!!! She IS a "WOW"... As Spirk would hear from Kock... "Fascinating"... all that head banging...read her lips @ 2:38 "That hurts my head.... it does"
