[@MrChrisStingray]

PJ Harvey is a rock goddess.

[@mariondelaronde385]

She has no equal, in a class all her own. A master at putting things together in a way that makes us think for ourselves. Human emotional approach, journalistic reportage in music. My respect for her is boundless.

[@havalinachiel7694]

Yes , yes - but what is it she ´s trying to say right here . Put in it perspective - she has been like a MTV crown jewel for all these years . She ´s trying to say " All I can say is that all of this is a piece of ... ! She ´s well aware of what ´s going on in the world . You really gots to look at her songs all alligned , her developement - one big moment of clarity , folks

[@braissanchez9832]

Nice words! PJ is a máster writting songs and create perfect melodies for catch the own esence

[@MrAngel4165]

Marion, I could not agree more!

[@cementheed]

And one of the most underrated guitar players in the world, equal in creativity and sound to The Wizard himself, JP.

[@the2ndcoming135]

🐐

[@elmusicodelantifaz]

We are lucky this woman exists

[@MrPolytoximania]

living legend , me saying this as a nirvana fan ( yeah , she was a part of that so called riot girl movement , she didn ´t car btw ^^ ) cheers

[@royceedwards1910]

Yes, yes and again: yes !

[@brunofernandes3298]

that last part where the coral are singing "they gonna put a walmart here" is so powerful.....outstanding...

[@indigohammer5732]

+Bruno Fernandes lol!

[@dwshank]

+Bruno Fernandes The irony - Walmart changed it mind. Now they're not putting a walmart there. Seriously.

[@satisfactoryrelief]

+Dana Cruikshank PJ got in contact with them.

[@brunofernandes3298]

+Dana Cruikshank this is going to be a irony for ever.

[@ty12t2]

Gangsta!💯 I'm a dedicated "Hip Hop Head" but this is one of the many reasons why I have her complete discography!

[@fleurali2294]

You are a piece of me and I am a piece of you, thats why I love you. Thank you for being part of my life PJ. Belgium is calling for you. In fact, the whole world is. Hugs.

[@emptysresponse]

PJ Harvey never ceases to amaze me with her awesomeness.

[@omariwest9068]

Dope! - I grew up in DC; she has captured this process of change using the rock n roll medium - and the community has then taken the riff. new to pj harvey, but the subject matter is close to my heart. this is amazing art. inspiring. love it.

[@havalinachiel7694]

check out " send his love to me " - PJ Harvey is one of the greatest . right damn straight and lyrics full of sheer beauty - poet , rebel , grunge , musician like . . . real !

[@havalinachiel7694]

@David Wishengrad you ´re welcome , thx

[@forsomemasses]

Touching description of a beautiful city in desperate need of hope and compassion. Instant classic.

[@IDASOFAR]

This choir is absolutely awesome, I definitely wish I could hear a version sang by them too ! I love the way you sing it guys ! Love you PJ !

[@fvb7615]

the first time the word "walmart" is poetic.

[@JoeyLevenson]

What a brilliant track. The lyrics are amazing. The ending refrain just kills me. I never heard anyone sing about a Wal-Mart so beautifully ....

[@pedrofaria7451]

+Joey Levenson hum sounds so much like pretenders so amazing memories that song bring to me

[@thequango1676]

PJ HARVEY is the only musician that takes the trouble to actually read the news and attempt to realise that the world exists outside of Hollywood

[@LivingInTheKaliYogurt]

Wouldn't say she's "the only" one, she's probably among a small circle of those that do though without just regurgitating the POV of the corporate outlets.

[@pioughd87]

That church group breaking into the harmony at the end just tears my heart right out

[@wagnersilva7918]

Exactly one year ago, I had the oportunity and the honor to appreciat a brilliant and solemn presentation of Pj Harvey, in São Paulo, accurately at Latin America Memorial: personally, a place so special for me. The weather was too hot. Even though the sky was blue, the sun burning everybody was exposed to it and a I sweat very much hoping excited when this genius artist was to enter the stage. PJ delayed the show purposely. When the sun began goes down, a beatifull dusk hosted the introduction of Chain Keys. It was a Beatifull and Unforgettable Day. Thank you for this special show, Polly. Brazil is waiting for you again with open arms.

[@timmcardle2233]

I'm sorry for anyone that would give this a thumbs down.PJ Harvey is a great artist and this song proves she's also an awesome human being

[@jane---489]

Polly, just being Polly, as beautiful as ever ... I would like to go where those Geese are going at the end.

[@coxley]

Love this! Hope for a community isn’t the chance of a fucking Walmart. $90 million on tax breaks and incentives for the business instead of social supports for the community might have meant cheaper products for some residents, but it also meant closure of small local businesses that can’t compete, profits going out the community not in, the school still a shithole, kids still unhappy. What sort of community saviour bails because they can’t get round a minimum wage bill?

[@ArtificialFertilizer]

+Bob Blackadder We should blame the white privilage

[@coxley]

ArtificialFertilizer Weirdo

[@coxley]

***** The guy that drove them around, was a Washington Post reporter Paul Schwartzman. The community wanted a Walmart AND a living wage for those who worked there. Unfortunately they didn't realise this is the company that would rather shut down an entire store than let let any of the staff join a union, so there's no way they are going to follow through on the promise to build a Walmart (let alone 2) in a community that has a minimum wage legislation in effect!

[@andys5141]

+empty wallet "Confusion" - fuck you.

[@wowimaoi]

PJ YOU GOTTA TOUR IN AMERICA FOR THIS ONE. WISCONSIN. See you soon.. obviously this song is perfect...

[@almclucas]

I understand why some people dislike this song but I love it. I find it very hopeful and uplifting.

[@mrjolieguy8673]

excellent!! choir in the last part of the video is genius!! polly cant get any album wrong... LOVE IT. As usual....

[@rbthanos]

Brazil is the need of "The Community Of Hope" right now

[@DocBrown3000]

I love me some PJ Harvey. Great to see her back on the music scene.

[@johngablesmith4671]

The images in this music video perfectly encapsulate the banality of the US as opposed to the mediatised version foreigners are generally sold.

[@Ryan_Ek2]

THEY'RE GONNA PUT A WALMART HEREEE

[@brunofernandes3298]

Any doubt that 'The Hope Six' is going to be the GREATEST ALBUM of the year.....AND also of the decade?

[@orapazfeio4903]

nope

[@BohemianConspiracy]

+Bruno Fernandes don't push too much...Harvey is great... she's at the top... but she's not the only one to release great things... To do the best album of the year is already a near impossible mission... the choice is rather subjective anyway

[@brunofernandes3298]

+Starry&Bohemian Of course...i agree with you......it's just a hyperbole :v

[@brunofernandes3298]

+Tophotbabes Channel kkkkkkkk lol

[@mikebuchanan8647]

+Irene Sharp This scammer knows what she's talking about. Blackstar. FREE. Blackstar. $20-$50-$100. Blackstar.

[@iiihamzapoloiii]

dayummmm this song is too good

[@Tunaboy45]

PJ's ability to wind up overly-sensitive Americans is nothing short of magical.

[@zombietvchannel2]

idk what you mean. im american. she lived in america so long i didnt even know she wasnt american for along time. and walmart is great.to all you haters. its great. its not walmarts fault all the trashy people are drawn to low prices.

[@johnchristopher3895]

she didn't wind anyone up.. ..

[@TheForlornEidolon777]

PJ Harvey AND Battlefield in 1 video? Easily one of the best songs of the 2010's decade!

[@donperinon7697]

the seven ghospel singers "they gonna put a walmart here" ...my gosh, my eyes filled with tears, not because i like walmart (i hated it actually) it´s because they're singing so beautiful, i love that part.

[@AmandaLarsson100]

PJ HARVEY always brings HOPE & she is a Dorset born & bred English WOMAN ! LOVE HER

[@willrichardson519]

She's a helluva woman, awe.

[@rorydavis2559]

let America shake. brilliant.

[@GenePark]

I love this and I'm a Washingtonian! Polly's light shines as bright as ever!

[@aaafnraaaaafnraa7869]

point of thought, musicians/performers are doing it for themselves. they are being selfless in that that they share it with us. too bad, most new performers don't abide by that rule. they aren't musicians, they are just actors/performers. Polly Jean deserves more. We all do.

[@adamdarren2659]

This album is shaping up nicely. The Wheel was great and this is spectacular. Thank you PJ Harvey.

[@Luvie1980]

Very good video with a strong message. If some of you haters would get your heads out of your asses and listen to the lyrics and pay close attention to the video you would see the message PJ is trying to make.

[@Whuditlooklike]

+Luvie1980 I see it and can appreciate it for what it is. The problem is that it feels forced an inauthentic to me. By comparison, the polemics on Let England Shake felt like a hard, resonant look at one's own homeland. This seems like PJ is reaching but missing the mark, both musically and with her rather simple social criticism. It comes off as naive and rather half-baked, frankly.

[@Luvie1980]

Landon Brown I disagree with you.

[@kevinbutler94]

+Landon Brown Its a simple message, sang to a simple tune, something incredibly hard to do actually. To over complicate or emphasise the would be to miss the opportunity imo. Shes turning into a modern day Joe Strummer.

[@thesovgc]

It's far less complicated to talk about a war that happened over a century ago as opposed to issues that directly affect people living today 🤷‍♂️. Polly at least tried, which is more than you can say for a lot of artists..

[@timwalsh4852]

Poignant yet uplifting, an incredible song in the manner of Kirsty MacColl's classic "Walking Down Madison." An accurate, piercing commentary on Washington, DC of 2016; it really resonates with this liflong resident and community activist! You all must read Paul Schwartzman's article about "community of Hope" in Arts & Style section of Washington Post 3/20/16. Bravo, PJ, Seamus, and Paul! Peace.....

[@org1969]

I can listen to Let England Shake endlessly...New album is for one time.

[@eppoj13]

in a world filled with justin's miley's and nicky's thank god we have PJ,she gives hope there still is a future in music to embrace

[@garygee1468]

This would be a great clash song

[@allanmanzanares3119]

Ms. Polly Jean is timeless

[@Cesar_Alvarez28]

Esa voz tan angelical tan magnífica que tiene sin dejar de mencionar la composición musical. Que más puedo decir PJ me fascina es de otra galaxia.❤❤❤

[@anselmoecheverria6342]

Un viaje a Afganistán, Kosovo y EE.UU. ha sido el motor del nuevo disco de la británica. Algo así como la necesidad de mostrarnos lo que ocurre a nuestro alrededor, con una clara carga política y social. No es un trabajo fácil, tiene cierta urgencia y eso se nota en ese aire de imperfección, con temas grabados delante del público en la Somerset House londinense. Una obra a mitad de camino entre el rock y el blues, en ocasiones con canciones rasposas. on inevitables las comparaciones con "Let england shake" (2011) su obra cumbre, pero aquí hay temas de calado inmediato que pueden hacerlo olvidar por un momento, caso de: "The community of hope", "The Wheel", el rock de "Dollar, dollar" o "The ministry of social affaire" con ese aire opresivo, denso como una letanía que te taladra la cabeza. Lo nuevo de Polly Jean Harvey viene cargado de crítica social, de desamparo y de desigualdades indignas. Un disco mayúsculo. Música independiente novedades.

[@seanaldo532]

Anselmo Echeverria te amo

[@knotknown847]

I wanna see the gospel choir version. Then I wanna see the choir version with Polly and her band accompanying them!

[@havalinachiel7694]

She would . . . I ´ m quite sure .

[@scottcharney1091]

I saw her live at Wolf Trap (a venue near DC) when she toured for this album. The choir helped out.

[@spitfirefrench]

Thanks PJ!

[@ZenJuddhism]

She's just singing her notes from a journalist's guided tour of the area.

[@ZenJuddhism]

@Liam Kavanagh I read it in an article about it somewhere... the guide guy didn't recognise her.

[Intro] They took one of the old notorious housing projects, and they leveled it and rebuilt it as "Mixed Income Housing". It's called "Hope Six," and it's supposed to... sort of rejuvenate everything. It certainly looks a lot better [Verse 1] Here's the Hope Six Demolition Project Stretching down to Benning Road A well-known "pathway of death" At least that's what I'm told And here's the one sit-down restaurant In Ward Seven, nice OK, now this is just drug town, just zombies But that's just life [Chorus] In the Community of Hope The Community of Hope The Community of Hope The Community of Hope, hope, hope, hope [Verse 2] Here's the highway to death and destruction South Capitol is its name And the school just looks like shit-hole Does that look like a nice place? Here's the old mental institution Now the Homeland Security Base And here's God's Deliverance Centre A deli called M.L.K [Chorus] And The Community of Hope The Community of Hope The Community of Hope The Community of Hope, hope, hope, hope [Outro] They're gonna put a Walmart here They're gonna put a Walmart here They're gonna put a Walmart here They're gonna put a Walmart here They're gonna put a Walmart here They're gonna put a Walmart here They're gonna put a Walmart here They're gonna put a Walmart here 2 Embed MORE ON GENIUS
