PJ Harvey & John Parish - April

[m06een00]

It's hardly a crappy song. It evokes a definite melancholy mood, and PJ sings it in just the right way to give it that character.

[nikgml]

She can sing the most crappy song and make it sound a masterpece! How she accomplishes that? I assume it' s not just talent but a deep knowledge to communicate it. In other words, just call it PJH...

[paulsreay1]

polly has so many different singing voices and they are all amazing.

"April, what if I drown?"

<3

[TravelAtmosphere]

this song is much more touching live

[superb361]

Eww, this song sounds like an old smoker woman trying to keep up with an even older church organist. It's like nails-on-a-chalkboard, with a cat being skinned alive nearby.

[paulsreay1]

@superb361 i know. fantastic

[Kakica84]

for me it sounds sooo sad and pesimistique.

[JadeLTanner]

she doesnt sing to please you fuckers who expect a angel voice, she sings how she wants to sing, thats why shes cool.

[behindeverything]

what an appropriate song to listen to, now that april is almost over.

[kmacmuzikmafia27]

The way she sings "I dream," is beautiful.

[chicoa]

@kmacmuzikmafia27 i agree, absolutely

hahaha.

There's something really bleak about this song, but that's why I like it! I never heard It's Blitz (punos) but don't you think that PJ sounded like Karen O in Who The Fuck (from Uh Huh Her), which is strange, when NME said that Fever To Tell sounded like early PJ Harvey, and it seemed in Uh Huh Her that PJ was imitating those who were apparently imitating her?! I tried to recreate this bleak sound in one of my songs, even used an organ effect, but it did not compare to this.

prawda najszczersza...

[sausage4231]

katie jane garside... ?

[chicoa]

hmmmmm,,, i disagree. polly's one sounds more... like an old woman, as i said in an older post.

katie's sounds more... male? smoked?

anyway, both are great!

[sausage4231]

yeAH...LIKE AN OLD WOMAN. THERS NO DENYING THIS, BUT KATIE DOES OT SOUND MALE...LOL...AND WHAT DO YOU MEAN 'SMOKED'?

I DIDNT MEAN THE VOICE YET THE WAY SHE SANG THIS PARTICULAR SONG

[punos909]

PJ kind of sounds like Karen O in this one. Lol, even the music fits with what the Yeah Yeah Yeahs did on It's Blitz. =]

[chicoa]

i though pj's voice sound much more like an old woman, instead of karen's.

[punos909]

Lol, yeah I didn't see it that way.

[kmacmuzikmafia27]

@chicoa

Damn! You ruined it for me! I thought she had a pretty voice and now all I can think of is a rickety old lady in a rocking chair. Thanks a lot.

[chicoa]

@kmacmuzikmafia27 you're welcome
