I feel like the actual, the most beautiful thing about a song is that it is something that goes out there in the universe and people use it in the way that they need it in their lives.
PJ Harvey

Like I have to pretend like I'm a male rapper, that I got stacks and we're in the club, and what do I want to say. And then, when writing Rare I could just be PJ.

The first song I heard from me was Meek Mill [I Don't Know], it was his first single before he went (to jail). I remember the first time I heard it was like eleven thirty at night, and I was like, Yo, this is crazy! And, I was smiling from ear to ear.

We just kind of lost our way. But we were looking to be free. One day we'll float. Take life as it comes.
PJ Harvey
Image
And all of these writers offer me a greater understanding of what it is to be alive, and that is such an incredible thing art can do for other people. It made me want to try and get close to this strange, mysterious thing that people can do with words.

Being a recording artist and having thousands of people listening to your music and singing your songs, and paying for it? It feels great!
PJ Harvey
Image
The way I make music is unique to myself and the way I have lived my life - no one else would tell that story in the same way that I do.
PJ Harvey
Image
I don't loathe interviews, I'm just one of those people who makes music because I find it difficult to talk.
PJ Harvey
Image
I make tiny wooden people with bits of hair. Puppets and things like that.

People like Howlin' Wolf, Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, John Lee Hooker, Nina Simone, Captain Beefheart - all of these artists were what I grew up listening to every day of my life. And there's a very healthy music scene in the west country of England, where I grew up.
PJ Harvey
Image
I feel that my dreamscapes are part of my everyday life, and sometimes I can't tell the difference.
PJ Harvey
Image
I think it does surprise me a bit when people have a very fixed idea of what I'm like, based upon the work that I do, which is something that is very separate.
PJ Harvey
Image
Most of the stuff that I do talk about, about being counted out and being an underdog, 'cause that's what I feel like I am.
PJ Harvey
Image
[Writing] has helped me meet people.
PJ Harvey
Image
If I ever meet a writer or a painter, I don't presuppose that they are like the work they are presenting.
PJ Harvey
Image
I find it hard myself to feel justified to sing in a very politically direct way about war or social conditions because I feel so ignorant of a lot of it.
PJ Harvey
Image
I've been so used to being supported by musicians, and I don't class myself as a particularly adept musician on instruments. I think I'm a songwriter.
PJ Harvey
Image
I'm a very private person, so obviously I don't enjoy talking about more personal matters. But at the same time I care very much about my work and I would like people to know that it exists. So I appreciate that there's a meeting point, where I would like people to know about the work that I'm doing, and that requires me to talk about it.

You shouldn't separate the piece from the way it's intended. I always feel like words shouldn't be unraveled from the music. They're all linked so much together.
PJ Harvey

I think that most art is asking a question or is looking for something, looking for answers and that is what life seems to be about for most people.
