best decade for music. I hit university as nirvana broke. was already into nirvana, pj, tad, alice in chains, stone temple pilots, soundgarden, nine inch nails. It was the best man
@@citizenpb I just turned 18 a month ago and this is an awful decade for music - I would rather be physically incapacitated for the rest of my life than continue to deal with the shit I do in this era lmfao
This woman is one of my hugest musical inspirations. As an artist, she's a shining example of how someone can explore every facet of themselves in front of the world, creating something amazing in the process.
Walk down 5th avenue and stop 100 people and ask them who PJ Harvey is. 99 will have no clue and the other will be PJ Harvey. Ask the same 100 who Miley Cyrus is? 99 will know and the other will be a dude from Ulan Bator. 9 albums released in the US and the highest got to #29 and the last one didn't even crack the top 50. I think that's fairly underrated. I know she's better known back home in the UK, but still nothing like as highly rated as she should be.
I was obsessed with going to a European festival or concert ever since seeing Mudhoney's set from this festival on Seattle Public Access. A drummer could almost keep time off that crowd
Look?! Nothing was about “look” then. It is all about BEING… In your case I suggest: Die. And get reborn proper. Live proper. This approximation you kids attempt.. it isn’t life. It won’t satisfy. You will look back with regrets. What is the point of living like that? If you at all relate to what she does, make your own way and luck. It’s not gonna happen on its own. It’s not about earrings and buns and stuff (honestly….🙄) . It’s not about aesthetics... That’s a byproduct. Trivial almost…. If you find the real meaning that would already be there, no effort. No reverence needed either. Even if I sound ornery, what I’m trying to say is a good wish: Good luck, young people, you’re gonna need it!
Oh then you guys must love the video for Judith by a perfect circle... when Paz rushes to put her hair up in a bun. The video is slightly sped up because she couldn't do it fast enough for the break. But it's absolutely adorable, fellas. It's one of those things that is so hot in stolen glance kind of way.
Great song from one of the true musical geniuses of Rock. A Sheela-Na-Gig is a Celtic fertility idol found on many medieval churches and castles in Britain and Ireland. A vestige of pagan times, it is a nude female figure with exaggerated genitalia. Women wishing to have a child but having trouble getting pregnant would place money in the err... appropriate hole, hence the lyric "put money in your idol hole."
Aahh, the good old days..........Thank god for Polly and her amazing songs that never get old and after twenty years I never tire of listening to them Fucking genius ;)
I made the mistake of completely failíng to see the immense potential of this amazing performer when this album came out, as it didn't stand out all that much from other stuff I was listening to. She's easily the greatest British performer to appear in the 90s and she keeps on getting better and better.
Yes: Nirvana kicked opened the door to the return of Guitar-Rock. Oasis, PJ Harvey, Blur, Pulp. Thom Yorke said that without Nirvana, Radiohead wouldn’t exist. He said that Nirvana’s enormous success meant that record companies were suddenly trying to sign young Guitar Bands, and Radiohead was a Young Guitar Band. Pulp started way before Nirvana, obviously, but their big successes came after Nirvana made it big in 1991. Nirvana was like The Beatles in that Record Companies were signing “similar artists” that were playing their type of music. PJ Harvey DEFINITELY fit into that category. I love PJ Harvey, by the way.
When she plays that first riff she knows the power she has over a huge and potentially unruly crowd, and almost disarmingly,it’s apparent she knows she can live with it. A lot of stars literally go mad because of the God complex induced by massive adoring crowds, and then further accelerate the decline with hourly doses of stimulants ( delivered by courier , free to all recording studios and live venues throughout the 80s and 90s I promise you ). But Polly didn’t go that way, she always saw the audience as a trusted old friend , even when she was so young, and so she’s had a long ,happy and ,not coincidentally, a relatively drug free career.
Pj went through two rough mental breakdowns in the 90s and was underweight as a result of it. She felt invaded by all the attention at some point. She has spoken on this elaborately. I’m glad she survived it.
HER BEST SONG A THUNDER , A MONSTER SONG, SHARP AS KNIFE TO MAKE YOU MOVE. THE SAME STYLE REMAINED AND TO HER SECOND ALBUM. AFTER SHE BEGUN TO SLOW DOWN AND UNFORTUNATELY SHE NEVER MANAGED TO REACH THIS NERVE
sometimes I wish I could just live the 90s over and over again
Me too, but then I cant remember most of it......

Then YOU should have seen..the 70's ! Dave NZ
@@sorearm Everyone thinks that the decade in which they turned 18 was the best decade for music.

Great song dedicated to Celt fertility

@Lars Poen Shiny facets, two boys, funny dwarves amazing
Bow to theQueen
So underrated as a singer songwriter. Classic.
+Tim Brownson underrated ????
shes pretty famous
Pretty famous. But not anywhere near as famous as she certainly deserves to be.
Underrated?

Tim
Yes she is underrated for sure. I did not even know who she was just today when I was browsing the "tube". I found her here.
That crowd is having the time of their lives
John major was prime minister
I was part of that crowd
I was obsessed with going to a European festival or concert ever since seeing Mudhoney's set from this festival on Seattle Public Access. A drummer could almost keep time off that crowd
This album was unbelievable.
Dry is so raw and powerful!
im quaking omfg this era was such a Look,, I'm l i v i n g for the jacket, the earring, the bun,,,,, she's killing me i love it

Christ yes 😭best outfit ever
The Bun is the best ❤

She stole my heart that day.
Did you see the show?
Was lucky enough to be there all weekend. 19 yrs old and not a care in the world. One of the best weekends ever😊
That crowd will have better memories than the new iPhone film everything brigade who pretty much miss the moment.
Such a nice, deep throaty voice! A real "Rock 'n Roll voice"
Actually, don’t limit her like that. She takes her voice every which place.
PJ's playing is awesome, such an underrated guitarist.
Egyetértek. Az egyik legjobb női zeneszerző-gitáros nem mellékesen énekes is 👍
Say it to their race
Love this album - but then everything she's done is fantastic.
coolest gal ever
PERFECTION...I can listen to it 50 times and get chills FIFTY times.
Bless this woman!

PJ is awesome! I can hear the Pixies and Patti Smith in this song, amazing
look at the public than and now at the concert
This woman is incredible!!! One of the best female artists ever to exist !!!
Aahh, the good old days..........Thank god for Polly and her amazing songs that never get old and after twenty years I never tire of listening to them Fucking genius ;)

PJ, I just love your music and your huge huge huge style and stage presence.
I saw you live in Imola (Italy) in 2004.
Thanks, for your music.

Man what of a year I was 20 listening to this a trippy moment
And we never had anyone like her again, only her ♡
Great song and guitar rythym
Just awesome
She's so beautiful without make up it's insane.
Perhaps, but she's most certainly wearing makeup in this clip.
thank you Scottish TEE VEE for bringing my brother back to me.
I'm in that crowd somewhere.

I was there … there I am
Holy shit. This happened on my 1st birthday. I'm a baby. O:
shes so hot in the 90s cool song
THIS IS INDIE ALTERNATIVE BROTHERS
THERE IS NO GROUP TODAY TO PRODUCE SUCH SOUND
YES
@screamingcockatoo I've been told it's an early 70s hollow-body Gretsch Broadkaster.
If she could just sing the lyric, “say my name” i would... every time
I thought of her as the female Kurt Cobain back then. Very similar songwriters in some ways
Not a mobile on sight. Not a tattoo in sight. Just talent
No backing vocals from Rob Ellis? Must have had a sore throat😊
tectonic
E so personalidade
What she saw in that junkie NC I’ll never know.

It wasn't always happy. She had at least two "nervous breakdowns" in the first decade of her career. What's great is she kept going.
Tu es belle Polly !!
HER BEST SONG
A THUNDER , A MONSTER SONG, SHARP AS KNIFE TO MAKE YOU MOVE.
THE SAME STYLE REMAINED AND TO HER SECOND ALBUM.
AFTER SHE BEGUN TO SLOW DOWN AND UNFORTUNATELY SHE NEVER MANAGED TO REACH THIS NERVE
