The Garden, a PJ Harvey Discussion Site

"Shame" was the song that got me into Polly.

It's so weird to think this is 10 years old already! How time flies... The era that got me into her.

wow. the first record of PJ's that I bought upon its release.

Uh Huh Her was the era I joined as well. I bought most all of her back catalog in short order as well as eBay stuff.

I unfortunately missed her performance that year in San Francisco, but the 2004-10-10 Electric factory live concert video is forever burned into my brain. She was absolutely riveting. It's a shame this video is no longer on Youtube. She started off with UHH and just tore the place up. Here's some video captures:






The first 6 tracks were:
1. UHH
2. Meet ze Monsta
3. The Letter
4. Big Exit
5. Who The Fuck?
6. Dress

One right after the other. She was relentless.

The last lines of UHH:

"I fill the sea
All with my tears
I drown the fields
You will remember
Remember me,,,,,,"

Indeed, I doubt anybody who saw this could forget her.

I like pretty much everything.
