Now that a new album is imminent, I've refreshed Polly's BMI and ASCAP list of registered songs. Rather than add new posts updating the same (3 year old) info to the Song List sticky thread, I've made a new thread for them.

Here's the ASACP list for "HARVEY POLLY JEAN" in its default alphabetic order.

Polly's been quite busy. She's added the below to her ASCAP list. Surprisingly, GUILTY is not among them. It is not a new addition to her BMI list either (which didn't change except she added MINISTRY OF SOCIAL AFFAIRS to it).

AIR 890373246
BIRDS OF THE AIR 890372821
BIRDS UNDERGROUND 890372822
BOY WITH AN URN 890373270
CALL UPON THE DEAD 890372823

CORPSE 2 890373284
DREAM 890372826
DUNJA 890372827
EARTH 890372828

FAREWELL MISS TESMAN 890373312
GENERIC HISS 890372830
GIVE HIM THE GUN 890373325
GOD OF WAR 890372831

THE LAST WALTZ 890373500
THE LONELY WOLF 890372837
THERE HAS BEEN A FIRE 890372838

If I ever get a chance, I'll incorporate these new additions into the numbered list and post it in this thread.

In the way of housekeeping, they also added (to the ASCAP list):

IN THE FACTORY 391621673
PERFECT DAY ELISE 760331288

and deleted:

LET ENGLAND SHAKE 883153285

"According to the International Standard Musical Work Code database, the song's official title is "He Must Be Guilty", with "Guilty" registered as an alternate title."

Why she would delete her own songs from the list?

Interesting. I never knew about the ISMWC database. You can also find it there by searching for "HE MUST BE GUILTY" instead of that number shown in the wikipedia page's footnote.
http://iswcnet.cisac.org/logon.do

Polly appears to shift published works around between BMI and ASCAP from time to time. I have no idea why. Probably some financial reason. I have to wonder if she published GUILTY somewhere other than those 2. That seems unlikely though since all the most recent new songs were published on ASCAP.

I looked again at BMI and ASCAP just now and there's no sign of HE MUST BE GUILTY or GUILTY that I could see.

http://www.dorsetecho.co.uk/news/5357265.Polly_loses_out_at_the_Brits/

Former music teacher Andrew Dickson recalls working with the young PJ Harvey when she and Bridport's other favourite diva Jess Upton (who now has her own soul band) formed the Hat Band, along with Thea Martin and drummer Ben Stephens. Mr Dickson, who writes music for film and theatre said: "She stood very quietly at the back and played saxophone. She was always very serious."

Mr Dickson said Polly then went on to join Bologna, a performance band that liked to stage offthewall shows with people cooking and juggling and doing circus tricks on stage. He said: "I write music for film and theatre and Bologna was just about writing for fun. We performed in village halls and charity gigs at the arts centre. It was really good fun."
Mr Dickson said even then Polly was always the quiet one at the back playing the saxophone. She also wrote songs for the band and Mr Dickson recalled one she had written about road kill called Dead Things on the Road Again.

Looking around.. I found this song called 'Holding On' that Polly co-wrote with Nick Bicat https://nickbicat.com/product/11-holding-on-song/

Quote:
Nick Bicat’s work with recording artists started in 1986 when he wrote the title song No More Lies for the American TV series Lace, which was performed by Deniece Williams. He wrote string orchestrations and played keyboards for Beverley Craven and Beth Neislen Chapman, and later wrote two songs for PJ Harvey: Who Will Love me Now? (lyric by Philip Ridley – selected as Favourite Film Song by Radio 1 in 1998) and This Is Mine (lyric by PJ Harvey). Who Will Love me Now?, originally used as a principle theme and closing titles of Philip Ridley’s seminal movie The Passion of Darkly Noon, was subsequently covered by UK technno/trance band Sunscreem, and entered the top 40 UK chart. He and Polly subsequently co-wrote the songs Holding On (for the TV series of the same name) and This Is Mine for Coky Giedroyc’s film Stella Does Tricks.

Thank you! I was going to say, How is it that nobody's ever noticed this before? but it *is* mentioned in Blandford's book. But he neglects to mention that she sings it!
