Courtney Love sings PJ Harvey's "To Bring You My Love"

[@jozefscott4935]

it winds me up so much when people say she can’t sing. not in the usual ironed out smooth pop vocal style of the masses of artists that have been forgotten about, but in a crooked, ugly but hauntingly beautiful wail. her voice has so much emotion and moves me massively.

[@rickb.4168]

She can talk, so can I.

[@AlexTapisevic]

Yeah just like Yoko...

[@cendsending3567]

Oui, avec l'album que Kurt à quasiment écrit...le premier quoi.. sinon...

I think everyone just loves to hate Courtney Love, it's a shame, she and the rest of the Hole members made some amazing music in the 90's.

[@Taquana26]

She is amazing! Live Through This is a personal fave of mine. I totally agree with you!

[@jadoremiaa777]

courtney love is a terrible person, from saying racial slurs, and claiming she can say the f slur because she has “gay friends” but shd does have amazing music

True.

Well...she tried. I'll give her that. It's bad karaoke and the piano makes it sound like vegas somehow...oh well. It makes me appreciate PJ Harvey even more if that was possible.

This is so arresting and powerful. I have a hard time believing that all you Courtney haters even listened to one second of this performance before judging.

[@marciocassu4990]

its impossible...

[@dirkturtle3354]

It simply pales next to any performance of PJ. Even at 50 Polly still has everything over this song.

[@Pandi-Fackler]

Dirk Turtle You don’t have to put a woman down in order to praise another. It’s fine that you like the original but you don’t have to be a jerk about it

[@dirkturtle3354]

@@Pandi-Fackler I suggest you re-read what I wrote. I would also question whether you've heard the original. I have a hard time believing anyone who has, or has heard any of Harvey's performances of it in the past 20 years would rank this as anything other than a pale shadow of the song.

[@Pandi-Fackler]

Dirk Turtle Of course I have. That’s why this version was recommended to me

[@paulperkins1615]

I have to wonder how many of the people dumping on this haven't even listened to the original song. At least she convinced me she really likes the song, that's a good start.

[@WabsEnt]

OK I don't want to be judging but she could at least choose a rhythm and then follow it through the song which I think is the only real big problem in this performance actually

[@ck2892]

Courtney is the problem in this performance

[@jennymacko9297]

She reminds me of Marianne Faithful

You get an E for effort and F-minus for execution but I love you Courtney America's Sweetheart is an ironic classique triple xxx

Those were the days when Lydia Lunch punched her in the face.

[@daddyzarex]

I was standing near them at that show at Slims in San Francisco! That was her first tour in 1992! 😃

[@Theodre_Verany]

I can tell, that cover nearly made my ears bleed it was so terrible

[@bugsby4663]

Obviously the original is better but I think she gave it a decent shot. It's not that bad as some seem to be suggesting.

[@blinkypushbuttons]

Live Pj and Courtney... Courtney deserves an apology from a lot of people who like to witch hunt powerful, amazing women.

I was born in the desert I been down for years Jesus, come closer I think my time is near And i've traveled over Dry earth and floods Hell and high water To bring you my love Climbed over mountains Traveled the sea Cast down off heaven Cast down on my knees I've lain with the devil Cursed god above Forsaken heaven To bring you my love To bring you my love To bring you my love To bring you my love I know he's gonna be here You know he's gonna be here Yeah alright Forsaken heaven Cursed god above Laid with the devil Bring you my love To bring you my love To bring you my love To bring you my love

[@KaueBitencourt]

I really don't get why people in the comments think this is bad. Haters. This is raw and beautiful, of course no one can sing it just like PJ, just like no one can cover a Hole song and be as good as Courtney. The thing about covers is that everyone is always expecting it to sound just like the original or even better, which is very difficult because everyone will always prefer the original version, so for a Courtney cover this is pretty good guys!

[@lissie3669]

I love courtney's music but it's ok to not identify with every single performance she does. It's not an attack on art, expression, or you and your tastes. Sometimes you can be too off key to a point where the expression is lost in translation for most people

[@lucysmith2856]

no you’re wrong

[@lucysmith2856]

she’s obviously very talented but this song isn’t a song she should try and cover

[@tomboddington8028]

She SLAUGHTERED that song!!!

[@Spawnisntdead]

I worship her too Courtney

[@sheltonchang9220]

"alllright!" 5:34 🤣🤣🤣🤣 what a dumpster fire. No vocal prowess, emotion, or identity.

[@Maymun_Maymun]

Sorry, I'm all for Courtney paying tribute to PJ but I think she just picked the wrong tune. Meet Ze Monsta would have suited her voice and style best.

[@gbrl2574]

She's pure perfection

Your joking, right?

[@kellyfelton476]

Wow, my 2 favorite females!. No where near as good as Polly but still cool as fuck

[@zeroxox777]

I would love to know what PJ Harvey thought of this! I so agree with her on PJ Harvey and the humility of Courtney who is after all one of the most iconic female artists of all time is a credit to her devotion to music before even her own rock star ego, which we know is no shrinking violet.

[@dagothkid6372]

Who did she say Patti would rather be reading???

[@daniellev7258]

God this fucking awful. To say its even kareoke shit is giving it too much credit. Awful is being kind.

[@Oske.images]

Oh dear.... 😮

[@johnblonde8589]

Fucking tragic!! What was this woman thinking she could even come close to the majestic heights of PJ Harvey and even consider covering this track??!! Beyond awful she should be embarrassed and clearly has no self respect. Tried to endure the whole track but it just goes beyond irony!!

[@johnnyridd]

This is ropey!! I was hoping for so much, but it delivered so little! PJ Harvey is the pinnacle...of pretty much everything she does. Courtney just can't come close - flakey! Piano riff is cool though

She was never a singer,she could only scream-sing. This appalling performance makes it obvious how awful her vocals are.

[@tubimusic]

Sorry Polly, it´s so bad.

[@alrune8]

Her star has definitely faded. She's searching for her own voice and searching for what's left of her past prowess. It's sad to see her not being able to age.
