Favourite Artists Track 421 - PJ Harvey - nominated by Tim, Voting

[Spacepig]

Next up, English musician, singer-songwriter, writer, poet and composer. (according to Wiki) PJ Harvey.

Wiki lists an impressive 14 albums, including the two with John Parish which Tim has allowed.

As usual, noms close 10pm on Sunday evening. Don't forget your link, and don't forget to come back to vote.

This one should run smoothly enough but next week things may go a little off kilter for a few days. My son is bringing his girlfriend over to visit for a week, and coincidentally enough, he has timed his visit for the Monolith festival here in Cork, being headlined by Greek Black Metal band, Rotting Christ. I can't think of any better way for me to put on a good impression for her :-)

"Greek Black Metal band, Rotting Christ"

One artist whose nominations I've always liked but never bought any of her material, will get round to changing that one day. Look forward to this list.

I forgot to put a nom in, didn't i...silly me. Anyhoo..quite enjoyed this list. Never really took much interest in PJ Harvey before; my thinking that she was just another pop princess with forgettable songs....it's nice being pleasantly proven wrong! :)

Several other tracks, worthy of points..but here's mine..

Well, as was stated at the weekend, my son and his girlfriend have come over for a week, and this evening we spent a few hours in the village pub. Which was great fun, good laugh with the locals and all that, then I had to come home and sort out what has happened here and I have to confess, I might have got it wrong. But, as far as I can see, the gold this week is going to Johnny's nom, Sheela Na Gig, just edging out Tech's Down By The Water with three max pointers to two. No doubts about the bronze though, it's Lez's for her nom, Dress.

Twelve voters I believe for the twelve noms. But the Duke voted without nomming (thanks Duke) meaning we have one non voTing nommer. Anyone hazard a guess as to who that might be? :-)

[Craig White]

oh globbits! if it hadn't been for that meddling embra b...., i'd have gotten away with it!

well played j.b. p.j.h. is one of those artists i tell myself i should buy her stuff, but i don't! my favourite (not nommed) is of course her wonderful duet with nick cave, 'henry lee'.
