That stuff between your ears is for thinking, kid. Not poking repeatedly with sharp things.

But hey, go ahead....

This probably is her most well-rounded album... Tux might even like it too, since it has a great duet with Thom Yorke...
:p

Seriously, I had the volume down and logged back in to complain about the crappy U2 and found out it was PJ. Sad. Sad. Sad.

Don't hear U2 in there, and I obsess over U2...

What are you talking about? Too much like U2? (!!) Did you forget to take your medication?

To each his own I guess... Love this. "One day they'll be a place for us" - across the vocal background, driving guitar, strong melody, driving emotion - great song.

Boring and annoying. A cross between the worst of The Cure and the worst of U2.

Get off the damn fence, Tux! Where do you stand? You either like U2 or you don't. Give it to us straight, boy! We can take it. :)

Do you obsess about anything else but U2... do you stalk as well?

Bill Bill Bill...ma'man ! The past hour or so has just been musical bliss for me. Woah ! Radiohead, Bryan Ferry, Sarah, Beth, U2, Smiths and now PJ...PG...my dear God! Just amazing. Orgasmic...

okay...did I mention that PJ is one of my favorite artist. This song is so powerful. Happy Robbie!

You dare to compare PJ Harvey to U2? Oh ye heathen. Go sit in the corner! ;)

But seriously, this is not "shit", on the contrary. More Polly Jean please! She is a diamond in the rough.

This whole cd is terrific. Was jealous of PJ when I met my husband because he held her in such high esteem, but now I'm totally with it. She rocks.

You are right but i had it in my car for about 3 months and had to get it the hell out of the changer. I'll be listening to it tonight though! Bring on Kamikaze

PJ Harvey is cool. Seen her twice in concert.

This isn't gonna be my favourite song by her though. Plz more from her, but perhaps different stuff.

Polly Jean is one of my favorite artist. Her latest work is different from her earlier stuff. An artist in full evolution. I just looooooooove this.

Very well said! PJ has been making solid, gets-under-your-skin music for years. I first discovered her when "Down By the Water"(a really spooky song) was played on my local "New Rock" station. Been hooked ever since.

I agree that it is a fantastic album, one of the few I can listen to all of the way through. This is, by far, my favorite track, though.

This song rocks as hard as the entire album. One of the best COMPLETE albums to come out in the past few years. If you like this cut...BUY the album and let it rip.

Great song, kind of like a hard driving cross between
"There's a Place for Us" and "We Shall Overcome"

An interesting comparison would be with "Soon Love Soon" by Vienna Teng.
