This was my introduction to P.J. Harvey, I distinctly remember my jaw dropping, who but Polly Jean could write and sing this... precious few.

The segue from Nirvana's Polly must be that the P in PJ stands for "Polly". Spooky song, right enough.

The comments are love or hate; the ratings are middling.

Ah yes, watching this video on MTV back in 95 left a permanent mark in me. I was overjoyed that someting so raw, creepy and still alluringly provocative had sneaked on to the corporate wavelength that was Music Television.
I went out, bought the album right away and played the dog out of it, I never looked back after that... This is what I crave from music.

Must have been in an off-mood last time I heard this - it's back to an 8 for me today! Funny how moods can change so much...

It's been years since I've heard this song....today I'm trying to remember why I liked it. Was an 8 for me way back then, now I can only muster up a 4.

PJ Harvey...fine enough, but I hate this! this is the (first) and best album she has done. PJ grew up in the boredom of a scottish farm in the middle of nowhere. when she couldn't stand it anymore she grabbed an electric guitar and shouted out all her frustration (what became the first album). That's pure, dark and raw. Now that she seems to no longer live on a boring farm, frustration as drive is gone. her last album is just plain boring for me. |
