looooohl xD ^^ g I just screamed "naaaaaain" cause i thought, PJ belongs to the wmg victims. (but i just turned off my boxes hihi) thank god it's universal. great music! (:
maybe one of the things that is good about this song is that she can talk in abstractions like that (fish swimming in the water, probably not literal) and then, the audience can sympathize with whatever it is in them that it draws up
This is really amazing. You could almost imagine this song was written for White Chalk, it really fits and is comfortable within the aesthetic for the new album. The difference is where the original is grittier and more tortured, this version becomes fragile and eerie. A brilliant song all round.
(Hope that made sense, I'm not very good at explaining myself).
I love this Victorian dress thing she's doing! With the darkness of her songs and her being from Dorset, she's like a modern day Eustacia Vye. It's like a big Fuck you to what's going on with women's images in the media in the rest of pop-culture.
She has beautyful lips

Even though I'm a huge fan of Polly, I have never liked the original version of "down by the water". But I have to admit that this one is amazing!

or perhaps a realization that we're still living in Victorian times, we just dress it up differently now.
