I was in Chicago when 9/11 happened and PJ Harvey played two days later, opening with this song. An incredible experience that I will never forget. I get goosebumps listening to this now.
The world is so messed up with coronavirus and all that the only thing left is to enjoy such great artists as Polly Jean Harvey... Art is all we have and all that will remain from us...
I see that someone seems to think this song has no meaning without Thom Yorke singing along with PJ Harvey, I'm afraid I disagree with that, I think this song has just as much meaning, if not more, when PJ is singing it solo as she hardly sings in the album version as it is.
Its so much more powerful with her singing solo, cause on the album it feels like she's just a bystander observing Thom Yorke as he relays a situation that happened with him and a girl and she just chimes in every now and then and then joins in speaking out what the girl may have said as he gets lost in his thoughts....the album version is all about him.....where as a solo with only her...its a far different situation and experience...its from her point of view...her feelings about it and observations...and her calling the shots and her saying this wont work and goodbye...and being left to ponder while the sun sets over her.....its so much more beautiful devastating and powerful Both versions are very magical in their own way.......anytime i cam see just PJ with a guitar though.......Thom who? Lol (love her love this) 💖
the whole beauty of the original song & what makes it super powerful is the structure: having Thom Yorke leading while she's following him during the chorus...until it transitions to her talking on top of Thom's singing, and ends with her being the one leading and him following her....a complete symetry with the lyrics adding so much to it too! solo, it's a basic subpar cover lol
Yesterday I have seen PJ in Roundhouse. Oh gosh, how she transformed from rock`n`roll girl to a mature folk artist. Stories from the city... is my favorite PJ album but a quiet and intimate face of Polly Jean attracts me as well.

I have a recording of that Chicago show :)
That was a haunting opening of a concert. I still remember it very well.
@@monsmartyrium Can you upload it?
this woman and a guitar are a riot.
Here in Brazil few people knows something about PJ Harvey, but i love that woman so much
real :( uma pena, queria ela no Brasil
She's great, delicious and rocker.
Muita gente conhece PJ Harvey, todos aqueles que se interessam o mais mínimo pela música já ouviram falar dela.
amo ela
Verdade! Fui no show de 2017, em sp, acho q o pessoal não ovacionou o tanto q ela merecia. Maravilhosa, show incrível!

Just a masterpiece.... I wish I had been there
PJ and her Telecaster... Amazing.
I just love her music, voice and stage presence. One of the most underrated artists out there.
I'll never get tired of this amazing song...
The goddess some call PJ Harvey. 😎
Talented woman,that she is PJ Harvey,
Best woman in rock,keep on keeping on Polly.
She's so underappreciated!
She's super appreciated and it should be ;)
what a fucking amazing voice, very powerful, very beautiful. she's a fantastic artist, seriously considering looking into more of her stuff...

alright
I'm a big big fan of Radiohead and Thom and while i do love they colab, i agree wth this!

She has a plethora of excellent songs. this is one of them, for certain.
I will be honest, P J passed me by until Thom Yorke's involvement introduced her to a wider audience, thankyou Thom, this lady is fabulous.
Was lucky to see PJ live in nyc about fifteen years ago, 2005 or so. She is so good live. A great artist.
Oh my word - I LOVE THIS WOMAN
Moving, beautiful, perfect.
What a brilliant and very beautiful woman
Goddess !!!! One of my favourite songs, tenderly gloomy. Thank you for this, she is perfection live.

Thx for the upload. She's great

The song doesn’t even need Thom Yorke

what in the world makes people think that screaming during a performance doesn't just piss off the people around them.
♥️
Great
İnanılmaz.
godess
THIS is dark femininity.
songs are meant to be sung. when you sing this song is tom yorke singing with you?
riot
where's yorkie bar?
😱
Had Kurt Cobain married Polly J we would still have him here today. Many more Nirvana albums and the World would have been all the finer for it🙃
Супер!
:))
Whats peoples problem with thom here
It is like half of apple
T.yorke.was.in.love.wi.her.but.she.wos.not.wi.t.yorke.she.loved.for.is.tallant
I'm not that fond of many women. But I love Polly.
Yorke！ where are u！
Yorke is not important. PJ is
who cares?
I think this song is better without Thom Yorke to be honest lmao.... I like him in it but prefer it without him.
there is no mean the song without thom
should learn to play and to sing...
