They were together for a bit but fell apart largely because of Cave's drug problems. The Boatman's Call was largely about her. Maybe the most musically brilliant couple ever while it lasted
God why do I love this song so much? I know poor old Henry Lee gets murderized but damn... this song is just gorgeous. This live version is actually really good too. Thanks. :)
yea me too, every time i watch the video! but the one that really gets me is the studio version. i think it's because they were really into each other when they made the video, and you can tell, and deep down, don't we all want to love, and be loved, by someone that much?!
This is very old traditional British (and American) Ballad. Dylan, Peggy Seeger, NLCR and many others have recorded it, too. Nice to hear timeless music still being performed in the "modern" age. They do a creditable job on their arrangement.
[I'm paraphrasing Lee Hazlewood's gloss on "Jackson" here]: Q: Is "Henry Lee" really a love song? A: If love rides a white horse and votes the straight pacifist ticket, the answer is no...but if love is death and death is love and agony is ecstasy and melancholy's sweet...then yeah!
@@katscy Thanks so much for writing to me. The original source was something that Lee Hazlewood said, semi-facetiously, on the back cover of the famous NANCY & LEE album, from 1968. In response to the hypothetical question, 'Is "Jackson" really a love song?', Lee wrote, 'If love rides a white horse and votes the straight pacifist ticket, the answer is no...but if love is an everyday thing...good and bad...up and down...sad and happy...warm and warmer...then yeah!!!" I was just doing a little riff on that. You can see a picture of the album-cover with Hazlewood's original comment here: images.45worlds.com/f/ab/nancy-sinatra-and-lee-hazlewood-reprise-ab.jpg I love Lee Hazlewood. I don't really know if Nick Cave considers Hazlewood to be an inspiration, but I do know that Blixa Bargeld and Rowland S. Howard loved Lee Hazlewood too. Blixa Bargeld covered Hazlewood's "Sand" (see here: ruclips.net/video/znubGHJm5ag/видео.html), and Rowland S. Howard and Lydia Lunch covered Hazlewood's "Some Velvet Morning" (see here: ruclips.net/video/bBdK7PZSCxw/видео.html&spfreload=10). Do you like Blixa? Or Rowland? Or do you just like Nick? I love them all.
Polly can look like the strangest woman I've ever seen in some pics and vids, and in others she's absolutely gorgeous, as she is here. Unlike most female singing stars who always need to look their best, Polly has zero vanity about her.
(8) Lie there, lie there, little Henry Lee Till the flesh drops from your bones For the girl you have in that merry green land Can wait forever for you to come home (8)
You know it´s true love if you have matching nail polish. I would give all I have to be Polly Jean, because she had Nick Cave. Or maybe I would give all I have to be Nick Cave, because he had Polly. Wouldn´t mind.
Hello! Thank you from Russia, Vladivostok! I love songs of Nick Cave, and this is so beautiful! And why I thought that PJ Harvey has waved blonde hair like the princess from David's Linch film Dune? Thanks!
Jipp , war bis gestern noch einer meiner Lieblingssongs , bin nur etwas abgedriftet , real Story " Henry Lee " " the Iceman Maffia serial killer " etc , seite mit original Serienkiller ( auch der original Hannibal ( Schweigen der Lämmer ) ) .

They look like a couple of human ravens. I love them.
Maestro Tao pai pai Love that description
Love that description
That's an accurate description of both of them
Such a hot thing to say
Excellent comment 🖤
I would give to them a chemistry nobel prize for this way to look each other
i love them, i love you now jajaj
They actually dated pretty much sure he married her
he didnt, but yes they dated
They were an item at the time this was recorded.
They actually was intensely in love here. They locked them self inside Nicks house for months, probably takikng drugs. It ended.
Cave and Harvey make a gothic murder ballad sound like a touching love song as only they can!!
Also, this is one of the all-time best male-female duets ever recorded and performed!
Zz meets halle over berlin
If I ever get the chance, this could be my wedding song! One of the best songs ever. 🥰
Also❤@@shruggzdastr8-facedclown
It's not often that we see little ole PJ with the "I'm in love" eyes.
SuperSlimothy
she was so in love..
That beautiful high voice she pulled at the end... I... Every cell in my body lived only for her for few seconds.
That's the gayest thing I've heard in a while
@@samdoyle3945 he has "anal" in his name 😀
@@samdoyle3945 Because a guy liking a woman is gay 🤔 ?
agreed! from guttural growl to sweet lilt, her voice just thrills me!
@@samdoyle3945 takes one to know one
I love PJ's voice!!!
Her voice is even better performing live! They were so perfect together, damn
I wish they had a kid. If they had that kid would be the most talented kid ever
the chemistry between them was undeniably strong ..
They were together for a bit but fell apart largely because of Cave's drug problems. The Boatman's Call was largely about her. Maybe the most musically brilliant couple ever while it lasted
I know they were never meant to be, but in my head, these two intense souls are still together.
Totally
What a duo! Pj looks so beautiful.
Harvey's last two verses give me goosebumps. Great hoarseness to her voice.
SHE TRULY LOVED HIM
Beauty and the beast!
What a hot Gothic couple of class acts!
that kiss at the end punched me in the ovaries. as do they in general.
Ouch.
.ĺ
I don't know why but this makes me cry.
Because o n yoir life u do not have ot
@@Влюблённая-х7р um what
God why do I love this song so much? I know poor old Henry Lee gets murderized but damn... this song is just gorgeous. This live version is actually really good too. Thanks. :)
i dont think i,ve seen two more people more suited than them great voices excellent beyond words
This must take the award for the most chilling duet ever.
yea me too, every time i watch the video! but the one that really gets me is the studio version. i think it's because they were really into each other when they made the video, and you can tell, and deep down, don't we all want to love, and be loved, by someone that much?!

They both are amazing👏
i just love seeing them singing together we feel their love.. and i like their voices
Gorgeous. Such love ...
Best everything, i watch this every week, it gives me hope :)
After the official Video, this was the second time I fell in love with PJ Harvey 😍
Agreed, there's just something that draws you in about her.
I love how you can see that kiss building through the whole performance. Fucking magic.
2 amazing talents! Love this live!
Absolutely awesome. Thanks to my beautiful friend for sharing this with me
They should have been together forever
yes! are you able to watch this without crying? its so intense. stop my beating heart
That'd be cruel, people do need to split when it's necessary..
It all worked out for Nick in the end because he met and fell in love with Susie shortly after the breakup with PJ and they are still married today
Chemistry, Body Language...This is true art
what a duo...
I love this.🎉🎉🎉🎉
Tears me to pieces whenever i listen....
Песня чудесная. Спасибо авторам
Two awesome singer songwriters ...so good

These two give me chills
Just love these voices together such a charming little song !!
Бесподобно гармоничная пара! Великолепно!
Doesn't get better. Mesmerizing and chilling to the bones
LOVE this song. They're both so sexy and mesmerizing and the song is hauntingly beautiful...
Why am I welling up at this ffs. Love this guy too much man.
They’re amazing
"You won't find a girl in this damm world".......and the wind did blow.....
Oh that Henry Lee.....
4:07 they´re pure love T-T
No me canso de la intensidad de ambos 😏
THIS IS VERY ROMANTIC MOMENT!
Une petite française fana dingue de cette chanson...
Que dire?
L'extrême bonheur de l'écouter..
Merci peut être..
That'd be so amazing to see these two
Haven't seen chemistry like this since Johnny Cash and June Carter
❤❤❤ ma la tenerezza non è più di moda richiede esercizi bisogna dimenticare se stessi

Till the flesh drops from your bones
For the girl you have in that merry green land
Can wait forever for you to come home (8)
:) kalbinde bu melodi ile tatlı rüyalar...
You know it´s true love if you have matching nail polish.
I would give all I have to be Polly Jean, because she had Nick Cave.
Or maybe I would give all I have to be Nick Cave, because he had Polly.
Wouldn´t mind.
I too am struggling to decide which one of them I wish I was as I watch them sway back and forth together.
Pj
Brilliant
Great song!!
encontrar esta joya en 2024 no tiene precio
Esta versão e demais!!! Está linda com os dois. A química entre os dois e impressionante. O vídeo promocional,então nem se fala...Amei!❤️🎶
They did this performance the year I was born...Shit that's a long time ago.

How could they not love each other at least a little?
The high watermark of .. the mullet!
espero toda la canción para darle ese beso....💓💓
damn good song...
sexiest song and performance ever
Is it too late to mate these two? The child would emerge with a crown on it's head, ready to rule.
A Love Song!
Será que um dia ainda veremos estes dois juntos?
For me, it's the hand holding and the kiss at the end that make it.
Love the MC comments at the end about Kylie. That song with Kylie Nick C and the pogues guy.. Death is not the end (Bob D wrote it) is such a laugh.
Best couple ever since Adan & Eva
КЛАССНО!!!!
El besito del final 🥺🥺🥺

She gets to kiss Nick, not fair.
@buckleygeneration I admire the hoarseness too. Both their voices give me goosebumps in general.
