wasn't she great on Jools Holland, i'm definately going to get the new album monday. Wish i could see her live, both london dates sold out within 2 days :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
she looks like a horse.. great first album tho. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
who cares what she looks like, she's an artist not a manufactured pop singer. Personally i like the way she looks tho and her first album is good but since then she has made much better |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I knew you'd take it seriously. her first album is definately her best. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
All her albums rock. The new one looks like its going to do the same |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'll probably have to stop listening to her music...she's way to mainstream these days... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
her second album didn't rock |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
i really like "Rid of me" that has some great tracks, "50 ft Queenie", "Yuri G", "Dry"..... and I think, like Max off of Hart to Hart might say, that she's gorgeous. I like to think that, if she met me, she'd really really fancy me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think she has gorgeous bone structure, and is stunning when properly dressed and photographed, but she needs a little less armpit hair. |

"stunning when properly dressed and photographed, but she needs a little less armpit hair. " - What the hell??? You want to meet some real women and stop wanking over the soulless robots featured in Maxim. |
||||||||
|

I guess she has too many polygons for your gameboy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I also like it when a girl has nary a landing strip down under. Chew on that. |
||||||||

Well you're missing out sir. Hirsuite women, unwashed, ideally feral, make for excellent lovers. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've got the new album and its definately better than stories... though i'm not sure if its as good as her earlier albums. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
she was good, although the 2 songs they played next to the obligatory single weren't the best on there. I'm seeing her live in 11 days! :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah but it was good to see her perform 'Who the Fuck' :) how did you manage to get tickets? I so envy you! what tracks are your favourites on the new album? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
she's playing a large concert and at a smaller (innercity) festival. I didn't want to go to the concert, because the place is just crap. my brother works in a recordstore, so he got us free tickets for the festival. my favourites on the new album are "the pocket knife" and "the slow drug" especially. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm looking forward to this... I think I will get it tomorrow. I heard 'Who the fuck' on John Peel, very nice, and a nice return to the old punky polly. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Okay I have it and it is cool. You know what sucks though? She played an awesome track on John Peel, the chorus went "don't marry uh huh herrr". You'd have thought that song would be on the album Uh Huh Her. But it isn't and its confused me :s |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
bought the album just now i shall report back with my findings like the botonist im not |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i might go see her at the astoria tat'd be nice |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've seen her unintentionally live (big day out). Not impressed. I've never really given patience to her music, but it's always irritated the shit out of me; the voice is /so/ whiny. Maybe I'm just listening to the wrong songs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, she was good on jools holland (the same can't be said for the out-of-tune Ash). Definately gonna get the new album, but i think its pretty sad when people compare her old style, to her newer style, as she writes (and produces!) some great songs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've only seen her live once on a festival. But it was a terrible concert. Totally uninspired. All the songs somehow missed "the magic". She even looked bored! Maybe she was just having a bad day, I dunno... I bought the new album a couple of days ago and I like it alot. imo there was nothing wrong with the stories-album though ;-) "shame" is a fantastic song! I can't get enough of that one. My opinion will probably change, but right now it's my favourite from the new album. |
||||||||

|
i saw herr on Jools. i need herr album now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm not like other girls!!! You can't straighten my curls!!! WHO THE FUCCKKK?!?! woo I'm liking it :p |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
man there was such a helpful quote on the uh huh her sleeve "if your stuck with a song remove the part you like the most" uking so helpful. me praises harveys production safe clart |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
maybe its a b-side? you know what its called? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have solved the mystery. I went on the John Peel chatroom last night and asked the producer... aparently she played it exclusively for the session and hasn't been released. It is called 'Uh Huh Her' though, confusingly :s I hope she puts it on a B-side |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
probably. she releases 3 to 4 new songs as b-sides per single. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, it will probably be on the next single from the album (if there is one). Any idea what the next single should be? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think Who the Fuck would be a good choice if it didnt have the word fuck in every line :p More realistically, perhaps Shame? Or Pocket Knife? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
OK, I'm new to her work. Don't know anything she's produced. So what makes her so special? That's a serious question, not a negative one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
have a listen. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Actually I was hoping one of you could give me an idea without me having to download something ;) I would have, but soulseek has been a complete fuck-up lately :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there's always about 3 singles from each album. I hope it's not "who the fuck" - that song is pretty boring, I think. "shame" sounds pretty probable. although "it's you" could also do pretty well, I think. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
she goes from very sparse, very intense rock ("rid of me") to more full, electronic work ("is this desire") and everything in between and around it. what makes her special is her songwriting and voice, which are both quite unique and almost instantly recognizable. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"is this desire" is usually regarded as her best album, especially for people into electronica. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ah OK, thanks. Will try to check her out (provided I can find any of her stuff on alternative download sources). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you should be able to, she's a fairly popular alternative artist |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm about to download an album called "dry". What's it like? Any good? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats her first album, yeah, its pretty good, its more raw rock orientated though (isn't a bad thing). Most of her albums are good, just avoid "Stories From the City..." for now though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"dry" is a pretty good place to start. the sound of a very young Polly Jean. :) "rid of me" can be too harsh for some people to hear at first, although when it finally gets a hold of you, it'll be hard to get rid of. ha ha ha. |
||||||||

this picture makes me laugh VERY loud and also makes me sad. |
||||||||
| Attached picture | |||||||||

| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
uh huh, 's her boom boom! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
