You could hear a pin drop for that entire performance, she is absolutely captivating! This performance is so many things at once, powerful, striking, disturbing and exciting
I have to say, that still after all these Decades, her music is still so powerful!!!!*. She has been and probably always will be a force of nature!! ... Blessings to you Lady!!!..
I remember seeing this live (by accident) back in the day. I've been a fan ever since- I forgot the whole sheep testicle interview - ahhh English humour!
Yeah, ignore all of that crap from '95 on (Oasis, No Doubt, Green Day, Korn, Blink-182, Spice Girls, Britney, Christina, Backstreet Boys, N'Synch, etc.)
This song and to bring you my love are so powerful without drums or much else happening. She's AWESOME!! Btw, it's rare for me, a drummer, to concede these songs are better served without drums. 😌
I like this song this song reminds me of true things when Ruth Wilson with dancing at the Disco I wish it was me and her singing to this song this is our song me and Ruth
TBYML is one of the best albums of all times for sure. An absolute masterpiece. I could listen to it five times in a row and never get tired. Wonderful music and... She is wonderful too.
She uses it so well though. It could appear condescending but she moves it on to castration on national TV like she is a farmers wife and new member of the WI talking about how her onions are doing this year. Peerless.
He probably didn't know what to make of it; she was something quite different as far as female-led musicians went (adding her being only 24 here). Not excusing but trying to help explain.
She doesn't seem too keen and perhaps understandable. Kissing a woman on the cheek was probably outdated even in the early 90s, especially for a powerful feminist like Polly. I mean, she touches sheep testicles, thus she's clearly outside of the box ;)
This performance feels right home at a dimly lit basement venue in a metro city late at night encapsulating the audience in a haze of smoke and whiskey.
honestly she has more musical education then any other popular singer on that scene. Not only she is cool confident and talented but she is classically trained and plays like 14 instruments. She is a PRO
Tie yourself to me No one else, no You're not rid of me You're not rid of me Night and day I breathe Hah hah ay hey You're not rid of me Yeah you're not rid of me Yeah you're not rid of me Yeah you're not rid of me I beg you my darling Don't leave me I'm hurting Lick my legs I'm on fire Lick my legs of desire I'll tie your legs Keep you against my chest Oh you're not rid of me Yeah you're not rid of me I'll make you lick my injuries I'm gonna twist your head off, see 'Til you say don't you wish you never never met her Don't you don't you wish you never never met her Don't you don't you wish you never never met her Don't you don't you wish you never never met her I beg you my darling Don't leave me I'm hurting I've been lonely Above everything Above every day I'm hurting Lick my legs I'm on fire Lick my legs of desire Lick my legs I'm on fire Lick my legs of desire Yeah you're not rid of me Yeah you're not rid of me I'll make you lick my injuries I'm gonna twist your head off, see Till you say don't you wish you never never met her Don't you don't you wish you never never met her Don't you don't you wish you never never met her Don't you don't you wish you never never met her Don't you don't you wish you never never met her Don't you don't you wish you never never met her Don't you don't you wish you never never met her Don't you don't you wish you never never met her Don't you don't you wish you never never met her Don't you don't you wish you never never met her Don't you don't you wish you never never met her Don't you don't you wish you never never met her Lick my legs I'm on fire Lick my legs of desire Lick my legs I'm on fire Lick my legs of desire
"I work on a farm and I ring sheep's balls." - Well, folks, that's all the time we have for today. Won't you join us next time? The performance was better than the interview, I can't believe they did her like this.
I bet The Tonight Show didn't have any idea of what the performance would be like, they thought it would be just some girl in a dress playing the guitar, how cute.
She spins a yarn, or is it? Does she really live on a farm? Do they really do that thing with the rubber bands? He is tempted to take the piss. He is a bit afraid. He starts a potentially sexist joke. Polly Jean stops him dead with an adult to child reminder that castration is not a suitable topic for a date. He moves on. Wise man. Hilarious.
Right?! Like who tf is she anyway? You had your turn to talk lady, now sit aside and let the amazing Polly Jean have her say now. I'm sure anything PJ Harvey said was more interesting than whatever that woman was promoting there.
Someone doesn't get it. You are very likely to be sexy if you are amazing. DERP. Is Prince less talented or respected because his sex appeal is off the charts? How about David Bowie? Oh, the shallowness. That person must not be a musician. I am, so I feel that I speak with a bit of authority ... turns out even homely mo'fo's start lookin' sexy when they're GOOD at what they do. You see? Again, DUH. No offense, but come on.
Rebecca Lynn It;s just a ridicilous comment. Polly is pretty much inarguably the most respected artist of the past 20 years. Every album she makes tops the critics polls.

Close your eyes and tell me you don't imagine at least three people performing this song. One of my favorite artists of all time.
She was (still is) so ballsy and so present. You will forever be my favourite Polly.
You could hear a pin drop for that entire performance, she is absolutely captivating! This performance is so many things at once, powerful, striking, disturbing and exciting
This makes me miss the 90s. I wish I could go back to that era just so I could discover PJ Harvey again. She is the best!
I like how her mouth pulls to the right.
Yeah, looks like she had a stroke. A sexy stroke.
Her speaking voice is such a surprise. Lovely.
She owns the show. Boss lady PJ. 🥂
that voice...
She's got the most soothing soft voice, and that powerful vocals.. 💓💓
Yeah, she has a powerful voice. It also impresses me that she's not inhibited about using it different ways.
God, she was only 24 years old here!
Even then she was an old soul.
with Kathleen Madigan looking older than she does now.
no one has got more balls than her, what a performance
a Voice and a guitar and a Great Artist- you don't Need more
her voice is so unique and powerful. I absolutely love it
I never get tired of watching this version of this song.
shes so young in this and what a talent
I have to say, that still after all these Decades, her music is still so powerful!!!!*.
She has been and probably always will be a force of nature!! ...
Blessings to you Lady!!!..
I remember seeing this live (by accident) back in the day. I've been a fan ever since- I forgot the whole sheep testicle interview - ahhh English humour!
this is the nineties
Yeah, ignore all of that crap from '95 on (Oasis, No Doubt, Green Day, Korn, Blink-182, Spice Girls, Britney, Christina, Backstreet Boys, N'Synch, etc.)
...did you write this in 2000 teenies.
Yup… an irrefutable, provable, historical fact
@@BaconTomatoCheese lol. I was 16-17 when i wrote this :D
Super genuina ella.. ♥️
This song and to bring you my love are so powerful without drums or much else happening. She's AWESOME!!
Btw, it's rare for me, a drummer, to concede these songs are better served without drums. 😌
All that means you are not afraid to see and admit, hell even enjoy it despite the fact. Like a true fckn gentleman.
How could I have been a hardcore fan for so long and never seen this???!!!! Nothing short of spectacular 💓🤘💓
She is unique and for me, all the live version of this song are the best stuff on youtube
I like this song this song reminds me of true things when Ruth Wilson with dancing at the Disco I wish it was me and her singing to this song this is our song me and Ruth
Back when original music was still appreciated
she's so wonderful... and it sounds better live than on the album :D
try the 4-track demos version
Out of all the music put out by Pj this is my favorite
brilliance is rare
Natural women , rock.
favorite!!!!!!!!
Love Rid Of Me, TBYML is my favorite album though from anybody.
TBYML is one of the best albums of all times for sure. An absolute masterpiece. I could listen to it five times in a row and never get tired. Wonderful music and... She is wonderful too.
PJ 📎 is a miracle of life.
"This chick scares me" - Beavis or Butthead, can't remember which.
Perfect!
Nice quality!
Just a suggestion Jay but how about asking one of the most talented musicians ever to walk the planet about her music.
I was thinking the same thing.
I liked his question, it was interesting. I mean, she just played her music, does he have to ask about it?
She uses it so well though. It could appear condescending but she moves it on to castration on national TV like she is a farmers wife and new member of the WI talking about how her onions are doing this year. Peerless.
He probably didn't know what to make of it; she was something quite different as far as female-led musicians went (adding her being only 24 here). Not excusing but trying to help explain.
She may well have the hottest voice in all of music.
Leno accidentally called Michael Richards 'Michael Kramer' at the end.
I love the old oil gas heater behind her. Always clever and impressive.
There has NEVER been a better live performance on Leno; she, Kate Bush, and, maybe,in the future, Marling, rule the U.K !!
"Very nice - thanks for coming". Michael seems very keen to kiss her - lucky git!
An amazing performance for a show like Jay's in '93.
She doesn't seem too keen and perhaps understandable. Kissing a woman on the cheek was probably outdated even in the early 90s, especially for a powerful feminist like Polly. I mean, she touches sheep testicles, thus she's clearly outside of the box ;)
Une grande leçon de vie, de vie intense !
My dream woman.
So badass
This performance feels right home at a dimly lit basement venue in a metro city late at night encapsulating the audience in a haze of smoke and whiskey.
The girl is fearless !
Why is she so cool?...
She was wonderful in that period, artistally speaking and as a woman.
She has a general low temprerature?
honestly she has more musical education then any other popular singer on that scene. Not only she is cool confident and talented but she is classically trained and plays like 14 instruments. She is a PRO
Wonderful in that period? Yes but she still is going strong. A woman for all seasons
oh those wonderful days of grunge
lol'd when I saw Kramer
Thumbs up for the video description.
Back in the good old days, when rock was still mainstream.
i love you Polly Jean
Polly, I love you.
3:51 Two worlds collide!
Puro fuego
"POL-LY!"
wordless
On avait de la bonne musique il y a 25 ans !

Don't you don't you wish you never never met her
Lick my legs I'm on fire
Lick my legs of desire
Lick my legs I'm on fire
Lick my legs of desire
...and after about two weeks they drop off.
OH THAT'S where St. Vincent got it from.
Another woman who should be worshipped as a Goddess. I love the way she fills men with fear.
humble and sexy..
She's using squier? love it
+CHIEF CROWLEY Fender no Squier.
The raidos were not ready for here until 1995, no joke. I 'm talking the Detriot radios.
Hell I didn't know she was British... sounds from around here too🤔
She's from Dorset
@@thesovgc wow, I did not know that. How cool, love Dorset
skip to the song 0:21
...my darlin
Lol how has noone mentioned that Kramer is casually on a chat show with PJ Harvey lmaooo
cool song lucky ass kramer kissing her i love pj
Is there any live version with a full band??? I love the studio version
+Toxishimmycity early live version at the Metro with original trio.
man, nick cave didn't deserve her
NOBODY AS FIERCE!!! ^..^
The original lyric was “lick my lips”.
Yeah?
😮😮 what's... What's so great about her though I don't see or hear it so, share please! 🙏
Harvey--visionary, talented, cool. Leno--not visionary, talented, uncool.
... GrooveDial wants to do a collaboration with PJ.
I'd love to live on a farm...and especially with Polly. Sigh.
Sans doute la version la plus brûlante de "Rid Of Me"!
La fièvre monte...
sheepherding has never been so polymorphic - Polyxena- xantippa (w/ whom nothing else is known but the feast day -23 septiembre
i copied her one earring thing tho
"I work on a farm and I ring sheep's balls." - Well, folks, that's all the time we have for today. Won't you join us next time?
The performance was better than the interview, I can't believe they did her like this.
The UK's answer to Patti Smith.
PJ Harvey, Tori Amos, Alanis Morissette...... they had complaints.
My nickle
Where's her band?
They split before the performance
i would just go back - simpler
I bet The Tonight Show didn't have any idea of what the performance would be like, they thought it would be just some girl in a dress playing the guitar, how cute.
hahahaha right? Jay seemed very awkward at the end and I actually felt bad for Polly a bit.
She spins a yarn, or is it? Does she really live on a farm? Do they really do that thing with the rubber bands? He is tempted to take the piss. He is a bit afraid. He starts a potentially sexist joke. Polly Jean stops him dead with an adult to child reminder that castration is not a suitable topic for a date. He moves on. Wise man. Hilarious.
Omg, who is that wretched "woman" next to her these days? She was so snide in her comedic attempt to make PJ look like the odd lady here.
Right?! Like who tf is she anyway? You had your turn to talk lady, now sit aside and let the amazing Polly Jean have her say now. I'm sure anything PJ Harvey said was more interesting than whatever that woman was promoting there.
I think she liked being kissed by Krammer...
Jay didnt even kiss her...... what a douce.
Outta place on Leno.Though put a mustache on her and she'd fit as Groucho Marx.
too sexxxeee....doesn't match if she wants to be taken serious as an artist.
That is sooo ridiculous.
And I know you meant "seriously." How funny that you think her sex appeal is ... oh, nevermind.
Um, you realize she is probably the most respected artists of the last 20 years?
Someone doesn't get it. You are very likely to be sexy if you are amazing. DERP. Is Prince less talented or respected because his sex appeal is off the charts? How about David Bowie? Oh, the shallowness. That person must not be a musician. I am, so I feel that I speak with a bit of authority ... turns out even homely mo'fo's start lookin' sexy when they're GOOD at what they do. You see? Again, DUH. No offense, but come on.
Rebecca Lynn It;s just a ridicilous comment. Polly is pretty much inarguably the most respected artist of the past 20 years.

its a bloke
hahahahaha delusional
ew her hair
so bad
Animal cruelty.
