The Bay

(released in 1998, b-side to A Perfect Day Elise)

The dead man came calling

My name and in need

Said "Betty, you're my girl

The strongest I've seen"

But oh my heart

Is heading to break

They say God forgives

But I can't learn the same

Said Betty she's fine

And Betty she's torn

And Betty makes love

Like woman at all

But oh my heart

Is heading to break

They say God forgives

But I can't learn the same

So I gave him my time

And I gave him my peace

And I gave him my heart

Gave it to keep

But oh my eyes

Making fools out of me

They say love is blindness (They say God forgives)

I could no longer see (But I can't learn the same)

Now I've no more to give

And I've no more to say

And the stars shine less bright now

Over this dead man's bay

But oh my heart

Is heading to break

They say God forgives

Is this love in the grave?

They say God forgives

Is this love in the grave?

A very good song - very Nick Cave like indeed. My favorite PJ Harvey song though is "The Dancer", specifically the acoustic version. If you haven't heard that, look it up!

this song is just brilliant! :) thanks ZZqezza because of you/thanks to you I'm listening to the b-sides more than the albums tracks nowadays. :D :)

Every time I hear this, I can't help but think of 16 Horsepower. The similarity to some of their work is uncanny, IMHO.

'the falling' comes to mind, as a possible best song. i saw her 5 times and i can't overly recommend that you do it as much as possible. so cool that we can watch all this here

This is very Nick Cave like. You can feel here the influence he had on her while they were together.

Thank you very much! I usually really dont take things from internet, but in just cases its just impossible to buy the records or even the mp3 files. But, considering that I´v paid 4 times for Let England Shake (once for download, twice for the cd´s when I was in England (record took more than one year to arrive in Brazil, so one for me, one for a gift), and once for the vinil, I am ok if I cannot pay for these songs... So I thank you in advance! :)

@bazzellmike this is not about being famous, this is about creating sonic stories and moods, harvey is not interested in fame at all, that's why her work is so unique..and doesn't appeal to everyone..

If this is all it takes to gain fans and sell albums, then I will be famous in no time....

Strašně se mi líbí, jak jsou její věci strašidelně krásné. Nádhera, ta husí kůže, to mrazení :o))
