I don't loathe interviews, I'm just one of those people who makes music because I find it difficult to talk.
PJ Harvey

I think blues music is music of the soul. Of course, there are other forms. You could call some classical music blues music in that way.

I make tiny wooden people with bits of hair. Puppets and things like that.
PJ Harvey

I try to see as much dance, theatre and films as I can because all of it feeds me in a way that I need feeding for what I do.
PJ Harvey
Image
There's a level of discipline I use as a writer, designed to get better at what I'm doing, that requires quite a lot of study and quite a lot of hard work as well.

I'm probably much more influenced by film-makers and painters than I am by other songwriters or poets.
PJ Harvey

I do write a lot of prose. It's not disciplined enough yet that it's actually become stories, or short stories. The idea of writing a novel seems impossible.

Ive always been very visceral in that I feel things very deeply.

If you come at the record feeling really happy and optimistic, it can be incredibly beautiful and uplifting, and if you come at it in a bleak moment, it can feel like a very dark place to share. It's all down to the listener.

Making me into a role model is placing too much importance on what I see as a work in progress.

But even when I do give interviews, I always come across as such a completely different person. It seems like there's no controlling it anyway.

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.
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

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
Folk music was to strengthen and unify people, whether it was through an uprising and rebellion or whether is was through hard work, bringing in crops. But it was to strengthen each other and that's still what music is about today.
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.
PJ Harvey
Image
I think I've been interested in music since I was little.
PJ Harvey
Image
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.
PJ Harvey
Image
I feel like it's very important that I'm doing what I'm doing, and I want to keep honoring that and try and do it as honestly as I can.
PJ Harvey

Well, I don't really concern myself too much with what other people make of my work.
