PJ Harvey - The Wind Lyrics
Catherine liked high places
High up, high up on the hills
A place for making noises
Like whales
Noises like the whales
Here she built a chapel
With her image
Her image on the wall
A place where she could rest and rest
And a place where she could wash
And listen to the wind blowing
And listen to the wind blow
And listen to the wind
And listen to the wind blow
She dreamt of children's voices
And torture on the wheel
Patron Saint of nothing
A woman of the hills
She once was a lady
Of pleasure and high born
A lady of the city
But now she sits and moans
And listens to the wind blow
Listen to the wind blow
I see her in a chapel
High up on the hill
She must be so lonely
Oh Mother can't we give
A husband to our catherine
A handsom one, a deal
A rich one for the lady
Someone to listen with
And listen to the wind blow
And listen to the wind blow
And listen to the wind blow
And listen to the wind blow

PJ Harvey The Wind Comments
is like a song from Madonna's Erotica Album
I love PJ Harvey!!
Such a phenomenal voice and composer. And "Is This Desire?" is a perfect album.
The Doors vibes are so strong in this one!
The first part sounds like Gillian Anderson whispering
I wonder why she made this video in New York and not at St Catherines Chapel, that would have been cool, at nightfall.
Polly is an important soundtrack of my life. Thanks!
j'adore
Maniac depressed get a life woman .
Thank you for the introduction to PJHarvey. I caught Tori singing we float.. had to find lyrics.
Big Little Lies
This is such a groovy fucking jam man. What a badass she is!!
shes fucking great
Wow 😊 they have PJ Harvey on the Season 1 Episode 1 outro of Big Little Lies. Forgot how good this whole LP was. 1998 seems like so long ago now, yet just yesterday. I'm gonna have to download to the whole thing again. As many times as I've heard this song I didn't know it even had a video. It's a good video. Goes with the HBO series pretty well actually.
This song gives me vibes of Nicole Kidman’s character in Big Little Lies
I'm 42 and just now really getting into all of PJ Harvey's discography. Having dumped my ex I'm now obssessing over "Don't you wish you never met her...!!" from "Rid of me", but wow I mean she's fucking awesome all over the place!
What's "big little lies"?
Oops, my phone lagged, thought that nobody left a comment, my apologies 😋x
Heard a kid in BLL had good music taste... well :/
Brilliant.
This song is excellent, but it sounds like some other song that I cannot place for the life of me. Someone help, it’s driving me crazy.
обалденно. зашло как нож в масло.
🖤🖤🖤
Kurt belongings here not with Courtney
The look at 1:11 melts me.
I knew singer and always wanted to listen it because I'm a big fan of alternative music and pop music which mixed with trip hop it's always awesome.And i thank Big little lie for showing this artist
Big Little Lies S1:E1 Somebody’s Dead. Heard over closing credits. Sally Lou Sunday March 24, 2019
You literally embody “cool.”
💚💙 your tunes.....blow, wind....blow.
ASMR pioneer
I love you Polly 🧡😍
she looks like tori amos here
ACID 🔮🔮
That smile after she cracks her knuckles just levels me
I <3 PJ
Omg. PJ Harvey has been around forever, people! She rocks.
Te amo, eri pulenta ay!
Able to be so many people...and all at once or so it would seem. Hayranim ad infinitum sexy bebbe!
This is a poem.
Shhh... Listen to the wind blowing
Can it possibly be twenty years?
She's so fucking beautiful, talented and sexy...
I love the dark, twisted melody and whispering vocals, amazing. I also relate to the lyrics a lot (well, apart from the bit about torture on the wheel). Me and Catherine should take some beers to the hills.
What's it about exactly?
listen to the wind blow
Yall sleep brokedown palace baby
I have loved PJ Harvey since Dry, and it would never be too late to discover her music I don't think. She is timeless.
Let People live the life they Choose as long as it Does not Break the Law of which there are becoming more and more
That "fake" PJ Harvey is creepy.
Very nice
Does this song give anyone else ‘Game of Thrones’ vibes? It conjures up various images of Cersei, Danyris and that manipulative redhead in my mind. I could imagine Cersei jamming to this while planning domination with a goblet of wine in hand, high in a tower- or Danyris on a rocky cliffs edge by the seaside making daisy chains and watching her dragons flying around.
90s ASMR
Catherine liked high places
High up, high up on the hills
A place for making noises
Like whales
Noises like the whales
Here she built a chapel
With her image
An image on the wall
A place where she could rest and
And a place where she could wash
And listen to the wind blowing
And listen to the wind blow
And listen to the wind
She dreamt of children's voices
And torture on the wheel
Patron-Saint of nothing
A woman of the hills
She once was a lady
Of pleasure, and high-born
A lady of the city
But now she sits and moans
And listens to the wind blow
Listen to the wind blow
I see her in her chapel
High up on the hill
She must be so lonely
Oh Mother, can't we give
A husband to our Catherine?
A handsome one, a dear
A rich one for the lady
Someone to listen with
And listen to the wind blow
And listen to the wind blow
And listen to the wind blow
And listen to the wind blow
Best song inmho
A Dramatic yet soothing Piece of Musical Literature PJ Harvey. The more Track creates of yours I listen to, the more I respect your unmatchable unique style. You are in a World of your own PJ Harvey. I have spent a far bit of intimate time judging and categorising my next move with Wind, Predominately connected through AIR. It is so very important to be at one with that witch surrounds, You know it PJ Harvey.
PEACE. LOVE. RESPECT.
JOOSHKA
_(:/)D
Lmao- watching Big Little Lies I thought this sounds like such a PJ Harvey ripoff. Shame on whoever tried copying her so blatantly. It’s not even as good. I feel stupid now... and no, it’s actually a really great freaking song! Glad I finally found out
Sexy lady
I fell in love with this woman! Such a shame that I discovered her music just on last few days. Although, music video would be much better... If it was filmed by Michel Gondry or smn like him, for example.
Pollo j Harvey stories from the city Great Great
Delicious. I could feel the wind in my face.
No one deserves so much talent like Polly. But I'll give her a free pass.
Oh god this is good.
fuck youtube mit euren werbungen
......wow,so good,thank you!!!
Algum BR ai que curte PJ Harvey???? Eu amo!
穿过骨头抚摸你
I came here for Polly :-) ♫ ♪ ♫
I've been listening to the wind blow ever since I started watching youtube
She just never stops being awesome!
How mediocre to get to know a music thrill, a female living legend, from a stupid tv show. Better go back and listen to ryhanna and bieber...
PJ Rules, that's all!
This song is so 90's.
You make a shit not music.
Beautiful woman
yes, you are right.
not everyone's go-to which means fuck all. i didn't see it from the start, took me a while.
GR8EST FEMALE VOCALIST OF THE DECADE. THANKS PLS COME VISIT THE DEEP DARK SOUTH ALABAMA?lol!

Great Song i like all Records from pj harvey... :)

thank you big little lies for me discover this song.
I love this song, the whispering vocals just makes this song.
Brokedown Palace
So friggin cool
I'm sixty, and when I discovered her i fell in love. But she's not so young already?
Great song. "Is this desire" is very interesting album. Trip-hop influence all over the place which is good. Makes sense, trip-hop sound was everywhere in late 90s music.
Poetic transcendent High Priestess spirit a la Patti Smith

This is such a good song
awesome vibe from this tiny women 😎
A Catherine le gustaban los lugares altos
Muy altos, hacia las colinas
Un lugar para hacer ruidos
Como las ballenas
Ruidos como las ballenas
Aquí ella construyo una capilla
Con su imagen
Su imagen en la pared
Un lugar donde ella podría descansar y descansar
Un lugar donde ella podría lavar
Y escuchar el viento soplar
Y escucha el viento soplar
Y escucha el viento
Y escucha el viento soplar
Ella soño con voces de niños
Y la tortura en la rueda
El santo patrón de la nada
Una mujer de las colinas
Ella una vez fue una dama
Del placer y el nacer alto
Una dama de la ciudad
Pero ahora ella se sienta y gime
Y escucha el viento soplar
Escucha el viento soplar
La veo en su capilla
Muy alto en la colina
Ella debe de estar muy desolada
Oh madre no podemos dar
Un esposo a nuestra Catherine
Uno guapo, un trato
Un rico para la dama
Alguien quien le escuche
Y escucha el viento soplar
Y escucha el viento soplar
Y escucha el viento soplar
Y escucha el viento soplar
The sexiest song on earth
Still love this song. Brokedown Palace brought me here
I believe this song was on the soundtrack for Brokendown Palace w/ Claire Danes
I'm very lucky because i've just discovered this amazing singer!
Bungholio reminds me of Patti Smith
This track reminds me of Laura Nyro circa 'Christmas And The Beads Of Sweat' album.
reminds me of sonic youth's "shadow of a doubt"
the beginning is the best ASMR. 😋
Eleonora Carcarino LMAO...
Im offended that people are learning about PJ through big Little Lies.
She's a legend!!!!!! X
i'm even more pitiful because i know about her from gilmore girls...
I'm watching big little lies. Was glad to hear it. It's been one of my favourite pj tracks for years. Maybe people will go on to listen to more pj. I've certainly heard songs on TV and in films and gone on to explore more. There's a few shows I feel really grateful for because they introduced me to artists that are in my all time favourites. Fever Ray is one of these artists. I know a lot of people would never have heard of Nick Cave were it not for Peaky Blinders. I think it's great they can find a new audience.
I am glad to be reminded of her greatness from Big Little Lies. I love her. Didn't even know this song had a video, as many times as I've listened to it. I love the fact that movies, TV, theatre, art... all bring people to great music. It's actually how I've found some of my favorite artists. Top 40 radio just doesn't play great music like this anymore. I'm glad people are getting the exposure to her. Better late than never. Of course I was born in 1970 so I've many more years of listening to music than younger audiences. Welcome to a really great artist, PJ Harvey, everyone. 😊
🗣🎙🎼🎵🎶✌💜
Seriously?!! At least be grateful they have good enough taste to listen to her. Stop being so elitist.
How old are you?
