Post subject: | PJ Song Survey |
Taken from the facebook group "if you don't like PJ Harvey, you're probably not worth knowing"; thought it'd be fun/interesting: SURVEY: Which PJ song... Makes you smile: A Woman A Man Walked By Makes you cry: White Chalk Makes you laugh: Sheela-Na-Gig Makes you want to dance: Sixteen Fifteen Fourteen Makes you want to rock out: Meet Ze Monsta, Heela, Taut Makes you want to sing along: Harder Makes you wish you were a child again: Grow Grow Grow Is played most often on your iTunes: Taut Is your all-time favorite: Taut Is better performed live than it is on recording: Big Exit Is better on recording than it is performed live: Pocket Knife Should be shorter: Cat On The Wall Should be longer: Harder Should have more lyrics: The Northwood Should be longer AND have more lyrics: Claudine My Inflatable One Should have been put on an album but wasn't: The Faster I Breathe The Further I Go Should be performed live more often: Easy, though it was never performed. Or Dance. Should have been a music video but wasn't: The Mountain Has lyrics that are unbelievably profound: The Bay Has lyrics that confuse you a little bit: Sheela Na Gig at first Has lyrics that confuse you very much so: Naked Cousin Has lyrics that you had trouble understanding until you looked them up: Primed and Ticking; I think I just wasn't paying attention enough. Will be played at your funeral: Rid of Me ![]() Reminds you of someone you love: Electric Light Tells your life story: Is This Desire? Turns you on: Harder or This Is Love (the first line just says it all) Depresses you: Before Departure Might give you a headache if you turned it up too loud: Rid Of Me Could you listen to all day and never get sick of: Water Would make great background music for fucking (whether or not you have actually played this song in the background during sex is irrelevant): Ecstasy or Working For The Man |

Should be shorter: We Float Should be longer: Broken Harp Should have more lyrics: I don't know.

Has lyrics that you had trouble understanding until you looked them up: I didn't understand a word of No Girl So Sweet before I looked it up. Will be played at your funeral: Before Departure Reminds you of someone you love: Is it terrible I don't have an answer for this? Tells your life story: Don't know. Turns you on: Harder. Depresses you: The Soldier. Might give you a headache if you turned it up too loud: Cat on the Wall. Could you listen to all day and never get sick of: 66 Promises.

For sure, I've been listening to Faithfull since I was a kid and love her but how could anyone listen to those songs and not wonder how they would sound if Polly had recorded them. Nice thing to do, kind of like paying respect to the elders lol |
