Does anyone else think she's kind of lost it recently? I've
been dissapointed with the last 2 cd's she's put out.
Scarlets Walk was too long and too 'safe', lacking the
experimentalism of Boys for Pele and much of her earlier
albums. Not just her music, but her artwork has been really
poor lately too, it seems like she just doesn't care as much
as she used to. Also the new DVD is censored, and on one of
my favourite songs as well.

I really hope her next album is amazing, its really a shame
to see artists as amazingly talented as her mellow with age
and lose their creative, experimental side. (Bowie amongst
others)

Is it just me or do others agree?

I think I'll get it. I love the coverr. Also she's not
sticky, she knows how to move on.

yeah i know, i'm sure she'll come out with something amazing
in the future. Are the tracks on the cd ones that didn't
make it onto scarlets walk?

Professional Widow is censored, its probably due to
marketing and DVD rating. Still, the live DVD is amazing, i
watched it in the cinema last week. I'll definately be
buying it, although the artwork is crap imo. Think i'm going
to design my own DVD sleve for one of my final Graphic
Design projects.

i dont know, i dont think they are.
the 6 songs are better than b-sides

im guessing all new writtings

great song ! ill have to check the dvd tonigt to see if its
censored on mine, i wonder if they just did it for the
cinema showing ? maybe...

yeah there is little to no artwork in the dvd, its still
worth it though, if not for the 6 songs alone

it's much better than Stories..

and I really disliked Stories.. after loving each and every
album before that.

if you like the cover, the cover of the "The Letter" singles
are good too - drawn by PJ herself.

you can hear a few tracks on pjharvey.net - they're
"unlocking" a track a day.

also, the new video of "the letter" is up on there. it's
pretty nice.

Tombigbee, what a great track! I have a feeling they are

tracks more

yeah i know it wont. I just don't understand it, i mean, how
many people under 16 listen to Tori Amos? They are putting
off more of the target audience by censoring it!

it's stupid, I agree.

if it wasn't censored on the cd, why should it be on the
dvd.

i thought scarlet's walk saved her as a favorite artist of
mine; absolutely loved the album after being disappointed
with everything since boys for pele (choirgirl was okay)

on the dvd she sings like shit. her pronunciation has
gotten more annoying.

Hmmm Choirgirl is my favorite by her
You cant beat Liquid Diamonds or iieee

and yes while Scarlet's Walk is a bit more safe than Pele,
I dont think there is anything wrong with that.

I think the only thing that she has released that was just
alright was strange little girls

Have you ever seen her play Live, in person (not watching a
DVD?)
