Can't believe its been 11 years since this gorgeous album was released. It's still amazing. I'm not from England but I honestly get something universal and extremely humane from the themes on this record.
England is in its death throes, a living breathing corpse of a country. On life support, which is slowly being withdrawn by legal, illegal and economic migration.
This song perfectly describes what England is to me. The lyrics, the images: everything resonates. I remember driving through the Yorkshire moors listening to this song. I miss you, England. 'You leave a taste, a bitter one'
Words can't describe how beautiful this song is.
sampled part is from an old kurdish song.
said el kurdi - kassem miro.
Said Axa Cizrawi - Kassem Miro is the song which is played on the background.
The rising vocal part near the end is amazing
There are a good number of people who discovered Said Axayê Cizîrê through this beautiful song, apparently. I guess I am one of the few people who had the experience the other way around :) I am an old fan of PJ Harvey, though to be honest I haven't been listening to her in a long while. Revisiting her music through Qasimê Meyro was pure coincidence, for which I am very glad, and lucky. Beautiful as always.
This whole album is so poignant it brings me to tears but it it also strangely uplifting at the same time!
I live and die through England
Through England
It leaves a sadness
Remedies never were within my reach
I cannot go on as I am
Withered vine reaching from the country
That I love
England
You leave a taste
A bitter one
I have searched for your springs
But people, they stagnate with time
Like water, like air
To you, England, I cling
Undaunted, never failing love for you
England
Gloriously heartbreaking. Tears me up every time.
the fact that this only has 188k views says it all.....while everyone is listening to garbage (literal garbage) artists, true artists like pj harvey truck along, what a blessing that i found her in the 90's during her tour with U2......i totally fell in love with her music then and have followed her ever since, may the universe always bless pj harvey with light and love and happiness, xo
Don't be so harsh Stupid Girl and I'm Only Happy When it Rains are pretty cool songs.
I'm so sorry I just can't help myself sometimes.
Seîd axayê cizîrî🙏
i’ve been a fan of PJ for three years already and always appreciated this album, but now i can not only adore it but also relate to it… as a russian i feel strong shame for everything that the government does but i also love my country and i am deeply connected to my roots, and i want the whole world to know how beautiful russia is and how many kind and smart people live here
sending love and peace, спасибо, Полли❤️🕊️
You are not responsible for your nation's leaders and well said, your country has much beauty and sadness just as England has. Privet from Yorkshire.
Do something. Stop your leaders doing atrocities. Nobody else can do this. It has to be you, the people of Russia.

Zimanê Kurdî tu behrî behra zimana yî 🌺🌺❤️❤️ I love Kurdistan 🧿🧿🧿☀️☀️☀️
The album is amazing, but this stunning song in particular has left me speechless.
An unexpected delight for many that know me. ❤️
The pair of identical twins are the Okonkwo brothers, Chet and Joe, eccentric characters from Islington, well known for their snappy dress sense and quirky philosophy. In the mid/late 1980s they ran their own street club outside Highbury and Islington tube station before and after school/work. People would congregate, gossip and find out where all the cool house parties were that weekend.
thanks men, nice info

Wow. Seamus Murphy is amazing. I love the opening scene w/ the young lady reciting the opening lines. Almost as if she just started reciting until she read the line "I can't go on as I am." Which suddenly hits her. That look on her face reflecting a profound sadness. Beautiful, beautiful moment.
никто, как мне кажется, не пел о своей Родине с такой пронзительной печалью и любовью... Let England Shake - это воистину альбом-откровение
воистину chef-d’oeuvre!
if a true greatest hits album of Polly Jean's work, it would have to be a complete discography box set.
it has been a refreshing joy to experience her breadth of work from the beginning to present.
A lesson in how to make something so emotive sound so beautiful - on many levels. The whole album is lovely to work to - and transports my mind elsewhere, away from the mundane and banal office environment. This particular song - with its perfect juxtaposition of subject and sounds, always rouses my emotions. Thank-you so, Polly, Mick, John, et al.
dengbej said + pj harvey = stay beautiful
Very beautiful, organic, realness in its purest form and straight from the heart. God bless!
Still love this song ❤️
Like the album it contributes to, this song is a masterpiece. Side note... the lady's voice in the background really reminds me of Elizabeth Fraser, my other favourite female singer.

You are hearing the sample of Said El Kurdi - Kassem Miro
Such a beautiful song, and resonates with me as an American, the same criticism applies to our country, tenfold.
I especially like the opening vocal part "laah ahh ahh ahhh"
Let England shake is a masterpiece
Never heard anything by PJ harvey before, this whole albums has blew me away absolute mint. God Bless England.
She's a genius I tell you
this is the only song about sb's love to their country that i can't get enough of
truly moving
Unbelievable album! So beautiful in everyway...love from Egypt!
This song makes me so sad yet so calm and peaceful ❤️
That's perfection right there.
There is a Kurdish song on intro and outro.
I love this album. It's stunning and this song is particularly haunting and gorgeous. ❤️
Such a Superb song ...
I love the lyrics ... they speak to me ..
so beautifull
Quelle surprise à l'écoute ! L'Improbable mélange entre la chanson kurde traditionnelle et PJ Harvey est juste géniaal !
PJ's most beautiful song.
I suppose it is a love song in a way, but one laced with bitterness. She loves her country but she is ashamed of the things done in its name-Iraq, Afghanistan- which probably goes for most of us.
She is a great artist
ΥΠΕΡΟΧΗ!
ΘΕΑΡΑ!
My favourite song I love it. Says much more about me than any anthems!
I felt in love with her voice and talent long ago, and that feeling still unbroken
Beautiful!
This song is exquisite ❤❤.
Amazing song, love from France
perfect. i left england 5 years ago. when i hear this song it resonates. i got tired of the war against the poor. the fascist mentality of people. i miss you england. we need to wake up and rise against the ruling class. the class system is very much in place and very present. its sad as it not about the foreigners, its not about the "other" people, generally English people have an acceptance of everyone. that's what makes us special. i think this song (to me) is talking about, and how shit houses like the bbc and the sun has ruined. remember who you are. the good, honest and human england i miss.
we must remember as people.. thats who we are... were not apart of war.. we just trying to eat and get by... that is all... i love you england..
Bloody hell, we now look upon those times with something akin to fondness
Where did you go, if you don't mind my asking?
The fascists being the Labour party and the lunatics who follow their racist ideas.
The fascist mentality of the people? Which people are they?
Thrills guaranteed.
Magnifique chanson et magnifique album... très touchant. ++++
Da dada daaa Da dada daaa Da dada daaa Da dada daaa
Da dada daaa [?] Da dada daaa
I live and die through England
Through England
It leaves a sadness
Remedies never were within my reach
I cannot go on as I am
Withered vine reaching
From the country that I love
England, you leave a taste
A bitter one
I have searched for your springs
But people, they stagnate with time
Like water, like air
To you, England, I cling
Undaunted, never-failing
Love for you, England
The best songs are named after England...this one and also the one by the National!
@blade1394 It's iraqian kurdish folk. The original song is called "Said El Kurdi - Kassem Miro".
Much love to the artist
c'est magnifique
100% spot on....couldnt agree more
I love you Polly! 🖤
@wualaguala
Qué bueno! Yo también saludo y felicito desde la Argentina, habiendo también vivido parte de mi vida en Inglaterra..siempre llevo un pedacito de esa tierra adentro mío..I am still searching for your springs, England!
I love it , great landscapes... but the sonorous images and your great lyrics are just great thanks for your talent and your stories...
I love you Polly
Lovely ❤
Bloody hellfire! Amazing!
Devastador... impresionante... Tremendo... Música y video.
This is Kurdish song? playing in the background
beautiful ! with love from an Italian/Scot from Montréal
As Remarkable as ever.
With the vocal undulations I’d love Morrissey to cover this but doubt whether his ego would permit...
fuck such a good album
A bitter one
I live & die through, England! The country that I love. warts & all no apology's end off
She is God
agree
There's something shocking about the way she sings "the country that I love"
amo este cd!!
I just watched the doc, `A Dog Called Money`, about the making of this record..... it ended with this song.... I once knew England a bit..... But never the warm-yellow-sun-Lionheart part, just the cold wet reflection in angry storefronts England...all throughout her bleary length... Polly
is choking.....
Remy Zero that doc is about making of her next album not this one
Mia moglie
nice post fella....check out all the other videos off this album...done by a guy called seamus murphy (photographer in afghanistan i think)...he has really captured something special about the uk....the good & the bad
POLLY.....I LISTEN YOUR MUSIC TO YOU HAVE SAYS YOUR DESIRE.......ME.......V.
Beu Tea Full. but 11 YEARS AGO! are u actually kidding me!!! what the hell have I done in all that time. 😧
Said el kurdi-kassem miro
I'd say "sorry you're British sucks to suck" but I'm American lol. Beautiful song
Remedies never were within my reach.
This song is my favourite from the album along with The Colour of The Earth. It's just too hard to call. And @DanielIVify how can you possibly say this is bad? What do you find bad about it?
Anyone hear after watching The queens long lost family 🙏🏼
see nighshakespeare response......nail on head
but mostly just the ordinary everyday england
@TheAharrison31 Right on, my friend!
I'm stunned and amazed this has only around 15k views. i suppose most of the youtube lurkers are busy watching justin bieber or the latest cat or baby meme or viral video.
This is a bit downcast for 2011, ain't it? We had no idea how great things were.
Anyone hear after The Queens lost family ...
whats the name of the vocal style in the background sounds like arabic yodeling or something? i need some of that stuff
it's Kurdish, Said El Kurdi - Kassem Miro
ALL THINGS AND ALL FEMINISM ARE THE BETTER IN THIS WORLD
no video/ photographer credits on this one?
work backwards from here....white chalk is something else
oh Polly ♥
wow shes got videos for like all her songs?
alın size gerçem müzük (said el kurdi )
Beautiful and the best Bjork impression I've ever heard.
Pj Harvey is not trying to emulate anybody she is in a league of her own and a unique talent.
I don't understand it. Interesting song though.
Kürtçe şarkı kaassem Miro bu sanatçı şarkı çalmış
Kurdish better than 😂
