I remarked on the Let England Shake thread that while I stuck UHH in my top ten it sounds like a B-side comp now: the detritus of a phase she needed to collect and abandon.

4 Track Demos is great. the version of Rid Of Me on there will blow your hair back.
― dmr, Monday, 23 May 2011 21:29 (thirteen years ago) link
Those demos really underscore, along with the new Neil Young and, um, I guess Billy Bragg the strange power of the solo electric guitar.
― Josh in Chicago, Monday, 23 May 2011 21:42 (thirteen years ago) link
hm, yeah, good point. is there a thread for solo electric guitar + voice records? probably not that many, really.

― maura, Thursday, 18 September 2014 02:21 (nine years ago) link
way to reduce one of rock's most interesting artists of the past three decades to her effect on your boner. well done. thanks a lot.
― maura, Thursday, 18 September 2014 02:22 (nine years ago) link
i just hope that he can eventually find a way to find the cuteness in other musicians too, before it's too late
― Karl Malone, Thursday, 18 September 2014 02:32 (nine years ago) link
Wow, all that just because he/she mentions PJ Harvey looks cute in yellow?
― Evan, Thursday, 18 September 2014 02:39 (nine years ago) link
- revive a thread after nine months- never mention her music or anything but attractiveness- ah now she is worth discussing because i finally found her cute
so, yes
― mookieproof, Thursday, 18 September 2014 03:00 (nine years ago) link
That's assuming her cuteness was the entire point of sharing. Could have just as well been a side note. Second video had no mention of cuteness.

evan it's nice that you want to give this guy the benefit of the doubt but maybe giving the artist the benefit of thinking that she, you know, exists outside of what men think of her would be helpful too

Maybe we can talk about this (the music, that is), probably my favourite PJH youtube clip:

This cuts to the bone and gives me chills every time I watch it. I love the crowd response in the last fifteen seconds of the song, they know they've seen something epic.

oh god enablers like evan are as bad as sexists like outdoorfish, what is wrong with you

― Twist of Caliphate (Bob Six), Thursday, 18 September 2014 11:09 (nine years ago) link
enablers like me are just as bad as sexists, who we are totally 100% positive are sexists based on half sentences. how about let's not be horribly negative people and at least try to get a little tiny bit more information before we call everyone a fucking full blown sexist AND say that everyone who says "whoa, hold on a second" just as bad??
I get it, you really WANT to believe outdoorfish isn't a fan at all, but now he stumbles upon a clip of pj harvey in a yellow dress and checks his dick to see whether he should give her a chance.
maybe, this is crazy because I know his blood test came back sexist, but maybe he is just a fan of her music already and wanted to share a clip and add "she's particularly cute in this clip" and just chose poor wording. Is that possible? because it's worth getting a little more info before you call someone a sexist over admitting they hadn't found someone cute before. Plus, the next clip wasn't all "check out her titties in this one" it was "I was at this show!" I'm pretty sure that's enough to assume the entire reason for sharing was most likely not to talk about how attractive she is and how much more important that is than her great music

Just trying to give the benefit of the doubt, that's all. I don't like to assume the worst in people without a certain amount of information.

behind everyone doing something sexist or racist or homophobic will always be some clichéd idiot saying "WAIT DON'T JUDGE THEM"
― lex pretend, Thursday, 18 September 2014 12:32 (nine years ago) link
PJ's general appearance/demeanor isn't "cute". I'd describe her stage presence as compelling, commanding, mysterious. At least every time I've seen her. In this video, she looks cute. She's having fun, smiling. Like a young Linda Ronstadt almost.
God, I want that Firebird.

Simon 'Dingo' Archer; AFAIK she borrowed him from The Fall for the 2004 tour.
