[@KingKonway92]

mark my words, this album will go down in history as one of the greatest of its generation.

[@facundofonseca8769]

nme magazine said its the 4 album of the decade

[@dominichaworth-staines7266]

palo santo that’s what made me listen to it, so glad i did

[@kerrybusbridge7528]

It is a stand alone piece of brilliance

[@ladgrove]

I heard this song ONCE and had it in my head for years. I've come back now like 3 years later. Time to listen to the whole album. Very well said!

[@MephProduction]

8 years on, it hasn't. It has however been forgotten.

[@daviddoble5956]

Pj is seriously one of a kind, we are lucky.

[@matthewjdouglas6471]

A proud English Rose 🌹 she is an amazing artist. She isn't a fool either. Love her music and her lyrics.

[@roryrug]

Amazing song. The vocal delivery is something to behold

[@frankplatt323]

Who else tears up at this whole work? Such a beautiful album, who else could pull this off but our Paddy Joe?

[@Starkardur]

its amazing album. its rare for an artist who has do consistently great music for 2 decades and this album is in my opinion her best.

[@org1969]

PJ Harvey is not only outstanding musician, but very good POET.

[@johnbarry1965]

"ENGLAND'S DANCIN' DAY'S ARE DONE"!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Cavitation68]

Polly is a genius! I think PJ invented crossing the road,she’s so unique!

[@beautybuffblog]

A couragious album and deserved winner of the Mercury Prize

[@teutonictosh]

Morgoth sent me!

[@jason01442]

Thank god we still have innovators such as PJ

[@skinheadsoulbhoy2858]

One of the most important albums of the last50 years, incredible

[@matthewjdouglas6471]

Yes, she loves this nation, as we all do. Unfortunately we are being told we should be embarrassed about being white British, we are to be eradicated and replaced.

[@ThomasMichaelsonActor]

The Mercury Prize is awarded for musical artistry, not popularity, not quality of voice. PJ Harvey is an artist, not just a singer. I haven't heard this album but know from her back catalogue that she is a diverse and musically interesting performer... unlike Adele, who can sing very well but has brought nothing new to the table. Good on the Mercury lot for continuing to champion intelligence and artistry.

[@-Deena.]

PJ is a bloody genius. ❤

[@lauramotos5957]

I get what you're saying but PJ sings actually better than Adele

[@ralphtijtgat3233]

Yeah, PJ is an artist. Her stuff isn't exactly easily digested, and she doesn't care. She just does her own thing and hey, maybe there's something in there for you. Or not. But it's always interesting. And even if it's not for you, there's still the excellent technique. She has a great voice and she uses it in, um, an unpredictable fashion?

[@user-lk4nk1gy7h]

Beautiful!!!! Wonderful video

[@IAMSEYMOURMUSIC]

This whole album is the most fitting tribute to the victims of war. The lyrics are amazing

[@amiranmsuknishvili1742]

connection of 70's to now...........amazing Polly Jean

[@rosie100ish]

[@Gerdam]

Let England Shake is the best album of the 21st century.

[@ronrendon]

SUCH A GREAT SONG.

[@hilarytully]

A worthy winner.. and she has stood the test of time.. we will see if Adele lasts as long.. Sheela na Gig.. great exhibitionist!! love it

[@Nathan-gd7xq]

Update: she did.

[@Johnnytotal]

I was at a TV show recording some 12 years ago. Where they told us that a women by the name Polly Jean wold perform. My girlfriend at the time just loved PJ Harvey, little did I understand that they where the same person . . Maybe that's why she left me LOL

[@eugenehogan2448]

Excellent song from a great songwriter.

[@johnbarry1965]

Two Performers that should have done a Bond Theme: Lana del Rey and Polly Harvey....These Girls absolutely Rock!....Respect due from this Old Goth....This is an incredible track

[@internet.cookies8531]

[@ronrendon]

[@CrusaderBeach]

Congrats on winning the Mercury prize :)

[@ritualpenguin]

England needs to face up to what we've done! Gonna watch the undertones mars bar song next, thanks!

[@badylasty79]

MRS Harvey, jestes piekna , cala soba, piekny tekst, muzyka, teledesk tez, wakacje nad morzem . Nie pisze po angielsku bo mam polska dusze :)

[@BenLawrenceWriter]

the late Benjamin Lo-Fi liked this, and etched the lyrics into two slices of Welsh Rarebit...we are still finding the late Benjamin's songs, and we post them up on our youtube channel, yeah, for curious ears to hear...

[@willh1970]

absolutely fantastic album.

[@thecinematicmind]

*10 YEARS*

[@nivarna1]

Fantastic artistry as usual from Polly Jean

[@8tem]

polly jean siempre hace lo que desea, sin pensar en ser accesible, aunque varios de sus temas lo sean. admirable.

[@stuartgibson9749]

Masterpiece

[@83ninjafaerie]

Art through sound :) x Love it x

[@benitolazio8193]

A W E S O M E

[@rowan7340]

this song is fuckin amazing

[@mrblenksmrblenks3114]

A true classic beauty. Under rated and over talented....

[@MrBuira]

Una reina esta mujer, excelente disco!!!

[@EvilEddtheRed]

I could imagine this being played by an enormous marching band.

[@livinder2010]

Come to Morocco , you have a lot of fans here Let Morocco shake

[@vgmediaTRAIN]

Good song :-) BIG LIKE!

[@beatjery]

We are enjoying on her Prag's gig. -Beatjery-

[@douglaslbarr9572]

🇧🇷

[@Baileycake92]

Surely the pure joy of discovering PJ Harvey's music is enough to make up for her not being a black rapper?

[@raycase6125]

While perhaps not stereotypically beautiful....I find myself wondering why she is the sexiest woman I have ever seen.

[@nic-ci_66-77]

ALTERA HISTORIA DU ROCK 11

[@ecedorsay]

is she using a shure sm57?

[@markussamnell6408]

Isn't "bigfishlittlefish" actually from a PJ Harvey song?

[@soaribb32]

Markus Samnell yes, Down By The Water.

[@kitemanflight]

who's reading lyrics at the end and in the beginning of this video?

[@lordtuck39]

@MariaRazzful ha ha , I'm just sick of the whingers . The Mercury prize is for musical artistry, NOT singing. There's loads of other competitions for that .

[@snowbunnee72]

LOL

[@AirQuotes]

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ Can't believe she won

[@nivarna1]

Why are people putting her alongside Adele- don't know whether to cry or laugh...Adele is nothing alongside just a singer...PJ is a complete composer poet musician

[@Scotty_Russell_Music]

@GeozzaDrum yeah its the occasional bit of atonality that adds to the tension...so if you feel slightly annoyed then im sure that was the intention :-) ken?

[@sinercusandterraanduyar4605]

probably one of the best...but just probably....but how tough and deli and fine what she does.......try yourself....jeje

[@amazonistt]

istanbul (not constantinapolis) :)

[@trab49]

I'd heard Adele's songs before on the radio and stuff, so for me she's nothing new. But PJ Harvey! I admit I only decided to check out her songs BECAUSE of her Mercury Prize win (and I LOVE her sound) so for me her win is a blessing to my ears, and it's probably well deserved from what I heard here.

[@nijbucks8673]

Englishness in a Cream Bun.

[@COMMUNISTPHILOSOPHY]

Death to Imperialism, Army? Try Dads Army

[@LawrenceIfYouWill_yup]

@lordtuck39 agree with you on everything except...I love X Factor xD

[@thomasmacmillan]

Anyone else notice the odd time signatures?? It seems to alternate often between two bars of 4/4 then a bar of 7/4. Or you could say three bars of 4/4 and a bar of 3/4....

[@massimocarasi9303]

I did .. not anyone is a musician ... she quite often uses this system to emphasise the lyrics

[@juliocesarpereira4325]

I noticed that, though not as precisely. It makes me fell somehow uneasy, as some of the sample collage of early rap music using bits of old songs.

[@diogopinto9462]

Tu tu tu tu ru tu tu tu ru

[@gazthebomb]

that old guy at the start owns ass

[@danthekid1981]

Who is the guy reading at the start and end of the video??

[@maximopi]

@lordtuck39 and don't even get me started on all the bands and "artists" playing Glee songs...

[@gato2uk]

@TehRoobz I love Adele as well but I think that PJ Harvey's CD is far superior, more nuanced and pure. I was a bit surprised that Adele was even nominated. She's a lovely singer but her songs without that wonderful, expressive voice would not stand up nearly as well as they do in their current incarnation.

[@stephenmcpadden3770]

Alan C. Smith Adele who? 🙄

[@stephenboland3191]

?

[@stephenboland3191]

?

[@secularhumanist8662]

BRILLIANT SONG. Ominous though....read it and weep my fellow Brits, Swedes, Norwegians, Danes, Germans, Dutch, Belgians, French, Austrians, Spanish etc #Awake

[@oneclicktrailerz]

@regvarney Nor was he ever even SUSPECTED of any involvement in any murder..

[@wasabi509]

jak by bylo bez glosu (instrumental) byl by fajny

[@NenadTrajkovic]

Siuoxie on Polly Jean way...

[@droidekamoder5455]

V for vendetta (2006)

[@ironweighted]

PJ Harvey is making music that is politically engaged. She is one of the few doing so these days. Whether or not that deserves some prize is for me beside the point so if you like prizes just for the sake of them, yes, Adele should have won...

[@Swachitsky]

adele was robbed...you say...that's like saying nicki minaj was robbed of the grammy that went to bon iver. literally.

[@droberts753]

Adele who?😂

[@Youngster1970]

Legend....I won't get involved in past comments. She has the balls of Dave Groll, the inventiveness and diversity of Neil Young, the political awareness of Billy Bragg and is the most literate songwriter since Morrissey....And if you don't like it then you can either listen to something else, write your own stuff or shut the fuck up. Cheers

[@jamiewilliams685]

Billy Bragg is a fake tool.

[@TeeJtele]

cant believe i listened to more than 2 minutes of this lol.

[@TheLastLivingOne]

Why do haters spend their time to show how stupid they are ? Come on, just read her lyrics, you don't even have to listen to her to understand she's a genius, Adele's great of course, but PJ is a queen.

[@LaCiedu2eme]

y got a special realation with her

[@maximopi]

Hahahaha i love reading comments on this video such as "i though she was some cool upcoming new artist" or "she's a wannabe"... Go get musically educated, PJ's a true artist, just try listening to "Good Fortune" and you'll see you probably knew it and liked it but didn't know it was hers. I love Adele, i was listening to 21 about an hour ago, but she's nothing new... I can see PJ as the next Patti Smith, playing on for ages till she dies and always coming up with good stuff

[@pppatsy]

England was on it's knees waiting for America to step in & help during the 2nd world war. These overtones are translated in the song & in the introductions. Much of the songs are not easy to listen to on this album, but resonate suitably.

[@VCYT]

WRONG The UK won the air war an so had security. It also out-produced the 3rd reich in war production.

[@SuperSimonuk]

“England” I think you will find that it’ was Britain not England. Furthermore I don’t know what history books you have been reading, but clearly you will find that it was the USSR, not the USA that made the difference. By the time the USA entered the war, the tide against the Axis powers had turned against them.

[@VCYT]

England shakes but never falls, the vikings an northmen know this, an they are gone.

[@gardini100]

we are still here and we love England best football,best pubs :)..if you fall we fall with you..YNWA ;)

[@asobineko4742]

england is in tatters, has been for a while now.

[@sawtoothiandi]

one word: Boris De Pfeffel Johnson. every empire goes down. every empire. under the weight of their own karma. but there is no need for the civilians of such empires to feel any guilt. its the thread of establishment that would sell missiles to murderous regimes who should quake in their very boots. karma comes a callin'

[@sawtoothiandi]

the reason why england shakes is because unlike germany it does not acknowledge the true depths of its crimes. it pretends like usa to be only the good guys, they are both delusional in this regard and precisely why they are now both led by complete narcissistic idiots. you may deny it, but it is still true. as they say. god will not be mocked.

[@2010MAYCOOL]

[@guld1999]

This is actually giving me a headache
