Biography

Polly Jean "PJ" Harvey MBE (born 9 October 1969 Bridport, Dorset, England) is an English musician and singer-songwriter. Harvey began her career in 1988 when she joined Bristol band [a668599] as a vocalist, guitarist and saxophone player. In January 1991, following her departure from [a=Automatic Dlamini], Polly Jean Harvey formed her own band with former bandmates [a=Rob Ellis] (drums, backing vocals) and [a344002] (bass). Harvey decided to name the trio "PJ Harvey" after rejecting other names as "nothing felt right at all or just suggested the wrong type of sound". The trio consisted of Harvey on vocals and guitars, Ellis on drums and backing vocals, and Olliver on bass. Olliver later departed to rejoin the still-active Automatic Dlamini. He was subsequently replaced with [a=Steven Vaughan]. The band released two albums: "[Link]" (1992) and "[Link]" (1993). The band's final tour was to support [a=U2] in August 1993, after which the trio officially disbanded. Since that PJ Harvey started recording music solo under the same name.

LYRICS

A carnival, a flesh farewell
Heissens rising from the dead
Wyman-Elvis! calls our gurrel
And counts the ash to where he bled:
At the first a crimson mist
At the second sleeplessness
At the third a broken tryst
At the fourth, Iwonesomeness

Gawly in the sweethearts leaves
Gawly in the soldier's tears
As the Riddle river grieves:
Wyman-Elvis disappears

Only in a scrid of flesh
Hooked upon the hart's-tongue fern
And only by her own gooseflesh
Knows she somewhen he'll return
