Very articulate and passionate woman with a genuine songwriting and musical gift.

PJ is undoubtedly one of my favorite people in music. Unique talent and totally original.

I've loved PJ Harvey since Rid of Me. But how odd, I've rarely ever heard her speak. I'm so accustomed to hearing these huge vocals coming out of this petite woman, it's a little bit of a shock to listen to this calm, quiet, articulate voice. Not only do I want to revisit some of my fav PJ songs, I want to find some recent interviews of her.

"It's a form of expression, but it's not therapy." Well said. 🙂

Dress was the first and only song I ever called a radio station to request.

Like virtually everyone who bought Dry in 92, I was blown away. Loved Rid of Me and her Desert Sessions stuff with Josh as well. Just immensely talented and tremendously under appreciated. I’m glad she’s still making music.

[mikedebe]

One of the most important artists of our generation!

[suzannestone]

I just adore her, she definitely was born an artist

[Elephantsss]

I've just discovered this woman, she is like a breath of fresh air, inspirational and gorgeous at the same time. .

[iamthewalruscuckookachoo]

One of my favourite ever mussicians. I don't think people realise just how much PJ Harvey inspired alot of bands and other artists.

[gronxman]

PJ Harvey was and still is an awesome talent. Just an amazing musical artist

[bjo]

There is just something so attractive about her. She’s magnetic

[michaellinkroum]

After repeatedly being bombarded with fake soulless crap from the radio, she is a breath of fresh air!Her music is great for road trips or really any time!

[jamesdelcol]

One of my favorite musicians. I really like her.

[jeffg]

The first is almost always the best. Dry has that country twang that is so amazing (and I'm not even into country music much). She brought the passion with every album including dry, but really brought it from the get go with dry. Can't tell you how often I find myself singing it alone.

[tomitstube]

incredible vocalist, and minimalist song writer, a VERY hard thing to do well. it's the purest form of song writing, and pj is brilliant at it. period.

[NOWtheband]

She's absolutely spot on about being an artist and being hyper-sensitive.
A blessing and a curse.
🙂

[rhuntsinger]

she has made like 4 AMAZING albums.... and not just with 2 or 3 good songs. EVERY FACKING SONG IS AMAZING. there are like no weak songs. all are memorable and powerful. really impressive artist.

[kevinogracia]

A great underappreciated artist.
Love.
Peace on earth.
