Good Tears for Polly



guy says he doesn't know what good tears are, but he's kiddin' around. any musician knows what good tears are. these good tears are coming with the news of pj harvey's new record and it's release date of September 24 (3 weeks after my birthday = awesome)...but mostly the good tears come when you hear this, her first single off the new record, her amazing soul-wrenching voice, her passion, her bare, gut-churning honesty...


whenever i see her live, i am in the company of someone i understand. i am in the company of a woman possessed of more energy than her little body can give. i am in the company of a woman perhaps crazier than i. polly jean is the real thing. i mean, she is more completely present and more completely giving when she plays her music right in front of you than any other artist i have ever seen, and that is a fucking lot.
