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.
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 ;)
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.
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
I salute the date as my 37th birthday to me now in 68th year of a life of music in no small part to Google/TH-cam/Alphabet Empire: calson associates circa 1920. 🐬
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
Forgive them for they no what they do. Marriage in between the man and woman only. Though, I love England still for no killing by the law and it must have to be stated for all this poor, children in their mothers womb. Love you whatever.
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
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."
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.
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.

@Lars Poen Shiny facets, two boys, funny dwarves amazing
Bow to theQueen
Was lucky enough to be there all weekend. 19 yrs old and not a care in the world. One of the best weekends ever😊
This album was unbelievable.
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
This woman is incredible!!! One of the best female artists ever to exist !!!
coolest gal ever
Bless this woman!
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 ;)
Was lucky to be there the whole weekend. Brilliant!!

She's just the best.🎉
Show me a group of people having a good time, and I'll show you...this crowd.
And no violence
Great song dedicated to Celt fertility
And we never had anyone like her again, only her ♡
Man what of a year I was 20 listening to this a trippy moment

The Bun is the best ❤

pj is the most beautiful woman in the world!
She's so beautiful without make up it's insane.
Perhaps, but she's most certainly wearing makeup in this clip.
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.

I salute the date as my 37th birthday to me now in 68th year of a life of music in no small part to Google/TH-cam/Alphabet Empire: calson associates circa 1920. 🐬
Id love this full set
Did not know Dot Cotton played Reading The cab back to Walford must have cost a fortune
Good stuff Mar!
Next year, 30 years ago!
Not a mobile on sight. Not a tattoo in sight. Just talent
THIS IS INDIE ALTERNATIVE BROTHERS
THERE IS NO GROUP TODAY TO PRODUCE SUCH SOUND
YES
I was there … there I am
Tu es belle Polly !!
"Child bearing hips"
Dunno but this rembembers me a lot of the early Tool
I thought of her as the female Kurt Cobain back then. Very similar songwriters in some ways
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.

TUNNEEE!
All the shiny pleather, looks like The Matrix
Ok. so the Wachowskis invented shiny boots of leather before Velvets. Also Francis Bacon was a shiny leather fan, so Wachowskis influence was heavy.
..... ❤️🌍❤️😎😎😎
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
Amazing !! Is there any more vid of Polly from this gig? This is pure gold !!
fretless bass guitar
Yosemite Sam yes. Coolest thing.
No backing vocals from Rob Ellis? Must have had a sore throat😊
He said Sheela-na-gig,you exhibitionist!!!
aha!!!!!!!! it was YOU
How many in the crowd really knows what that term means???
They found out
kurt cobain was there ?
And by the way, 35 to 40 minutes is about standard for a non headlining act at a major festival. Get a clue.
Forgive them for they no what they do. Marriage in between the man and woman only. Though, I love England still for no killing by the law and it must have to be stated for all this poor, children in their mothers womb. Love you whatever.
What?
gonna take my hips to a man who cares
she was 23 years old here! holy shit. so cool.
She looks about 12. Bless her!
and i was 9 yo , time happens
Well, i was in my late thirties back than.🤣
This girl is amazing.
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?
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.

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.
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.
Love this album - but then everything she's done is fantastic.
That crowd will have better memories than the new iPhone film everything brigade who pretty much miss the moment.
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
She's almost too good. Honestly.
Was here she was fantastic that day
@@jahwobble5214 goddam lucky you

PERFECTION...I can listen to it 50 times and get chills FIFTY times.
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.
She stole my heart that day.
Did you see the show?
You exhibitionist !!!
*"you exhibitionist!!"* 💪🎸🎶
The Amazing PJ Harvey what a wknd I was there somewhere in the mosh pit!😁🤘
hey Nirvana played this same festival two days later
PJ is awesome! I can hear the Pixies and Patti Smith in this song, amazing
omg I just found this - I was there somewhere in the crowd, I have a vivid memory of her doing this!
It seemed she was swallowed up by nirvana and others at the times …. But equally as great
So in love with this woman~!
Gonna take my hips to a man who cares...girl, you defined feminism in the 90s. Love you and what you gave to us.
I'm in that crowd somewhere.
2023 new album coming!!!!!
great video. she looks very happy :)
I got this on a VHS tape. Early nineties...
God I fucking miss the 90s

tectonic
Look at the insanity and the moshing from the crowd. I'll never not be jealous of gen xers in that respect.
damn she is so wonderful
the most confident and consummate perfromer, song writer and gutarist
What a woman 🙌
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.
Me yes me yes me! xxxx.
just founf this and I was there, Great!
Perfect
