PJ Harvey - When Under Ether 

The song coupled with the scene of Tommy riding down the canal to meet Alfie, one of the most peaceful, yet haunting scenes..takes you away.

We need to realize how blessed we are to see all the footage of PJ in her studio and creating . She is one of a kind

A Masterpiece. To capture so much life's gravity and tenderness in such a brief echo of a song. Beauty beauty beauty.

Peaky Blinders music selection is really great. The artists and songs are way too beautiful and haunting.

Peaky blinders got me into this song and artist lol

PJ Harvey brought me here.

No other artist could have made this album. Genius.

Terrible how different the world is when people aren't in fear of you. From contract phones to thieves to my own father. Terrible truth. Hopefully rach ruth an mam will recover with myself. Thank u to everyone thats made my recovery this far possible n thanks to entire francis family for trusting me with your youngest child,sister. So lucky i am.

I thought nothin could beat her first three albums.. this'n sailed o'er them.. hauntingly good🖤

I loved this song from the album White Chalk. And had the great surprise to discover from season 2 how PJ Harvey music fit perfectly the Peaky Blinders. I read Cillian McMurphy had submitted it himself.

When i first heard Polly Jean Harvey here on RU-vid i felt immediately that she is a musical giant! the voice is like velvet silk. the songwriting is phenomenally great. greetings from germany.

White chalk...Best album out of all the most amazing albums, PJ I adore you...THIS IS MUSIC

Another Peaky masterpiece, on the way to introduce Alfie. Brilliant 👏

White Chalk and Is This Desire were underrated? News to me!

The ceiling is moving Moving in time Like a conveyor belt Above my eyes When under ether The mind comes alive But conscious of nothing But the will to survive I lay on the bed Waist down undressed Look up at the ceiling Feeling happiness Human kindness The woman beside me Is holding my hand I point at the ceiling She smiles so kind Something's inside me Unborn and unblessed Disappears in the ether This world to the next Disappears in the ether One world to the next Human kindness

PJ Harvey is music. Music is PJ Harvey. It’s in her blood. It’s in her body. It’s in her soul. And for that we should all be eternally grateful. Thank you Polly ( for everything).

PJ you are FANTASTIC!!! "When Under Ether" is one of my favourites!!!

PJ Harvey never denied the song was about abortion. What she actually said when questioned was "That's obviously what you hear, but for me it's not actually tied to anything specific, like an abortion. These aren't just words. They're songs. They inhabit themselves, really" ie it's open to interpretation by the listener.

Peaky Blinders special.. 👑

What an amazing soft and Heavenly voice

PJ Harvey brought me here...been a fan since the early 90s

she's more than unique this is what an Artist sounds like,adept, non-definable borderlined ,exquistely envisioned , executed .

I think its a beautiful CD, I didn't get PJ before this and sadly I don’t think many got this version of PJ, I love the fact that it haunts me, that’s what art is supposed to do Love to all spud custard

Her voice is just so........haunting :)

Peaky blinders 🖤

Very beautiful song

My good taste in music brought me here.

thank you for being, Polly.

human kindness!!!

Been there a time or two…

I love PJ, but never really cared for this song. But today I really took time to read the lyrics and quietly listen to this song like someone with a new pair of ears. Beautiful.

I just returned here after almost a decade lol I used to listen to this song all the time when I was 19-20. My best friend at the time used to complain that it was too depressing hah *looks around at the comments* Nice to see Beaky Blinders giving PJ more deserved attention

I adore this song but it makes me feel a little unsettled every time i listen to it!

The whole album is wonderful. i love the layers.

Wonderful composition. Thank you for this!!! Best iv´e heard in 2023

Tommy shlebey riding boat in river ❤❤❤

The woman in the beginning is Edith Cavell, a british nurse from the WWI shot for "spying" because she helped German soldiers too, is it right? Since I saw her picture, suddenly I imagined that this song is a perfect image of what it would be like to be in a soldier's head ful of morphine or ether or whatever, after coming to a operation desk from the hell of frontline, to a woman like as generous as that. And yes, peaky blinders brought me here. greetings from Serbia :)

by order of the peaky fookin blinders

Brilliant song. Humankindness seems intentionally ambiguous, it is about the human kindness that made the abortion procedure possible, and the humankind-ness that leads to this sort of situation. It is amazing that a short song has more depth than 95% of the "feminism" discourses you see in media or in college these days, Polly is a true artist.

This song brought me to the Peaky Blinders and i dont fooking regret it

excellent to ponder

PJ Harvey is a brilliant and inspiring woman.

TE AMOOOO

Anyone who's had ether never forgets the experience!! Blecccchhhh!!

What a good song wow

Harvey's haircut in this vedio is really adorable.....I just love it! and there's no need to comment about her music.

Wow...just wow

Costo mucho pero al fin te encontré, hermoso tema!

The Following

Good stuff 👏

Sailing down to Camden Town..

Cuando llega al corazón eriza la piel

a chilling song more like it.

Peaky blinders❤

What I like about her as I'm here checking out a lot of her music for the first time is she's really out there if you pay attention to her lyrics. When I started this being out of work because of the pandemic a month ago I started going thru all my cassettes. I have about 30 tapes of all my ideas over the years before I went digital and the about 200 mix tapes and other stuff. I came across a tape of PJ that was on the b side of a mix tape.....I was like I remember I used to like this artist and decided to keep the tape. I was like I'll listen to it while I'm painting next week. Then strangely she came up in my suggestion box while looking at another artist.

So much PJ stuff I haven't seen or heard before

this song is so fire

White Chalk and Is This Desire? her best and most underrated albums!

Ok, since these "The Following brought me here" remarks have taken over the comment section of late, for those not watching the series but curious about context, this song plays near the end of The Following episode entitled, "Whips and Regret" which was first aired in the states on 4/1/13. They play a good chunk of the song in the last few minutes.

Peaky blinders!🖤

Thomas shelby and the boat

Her body. Her right. Her decision. PJ u r poetic Queen Scribe of the worlds beyond reason, logic and the veneer of mundane life... plunging hands deep into other realms beyond to clutch new creative imaginings to share with us.... Will you marry me?

Happy Mother's day!

Was unsure regards buying this album.But this has changed my mind.Just the first two records to get now.!

Her best album for sure, weird, but her best.

PEAKY FOOKIN BLINDERS

Classic.

I'm ARTHUR FUCKING SHELBY seriously one of the best shows I've seen

Beautiful song

A hauntingly golden song 😊 I've been a fan of Polly for many _many_ years though I must say I've fallen out of favour with her more recent work. This is the last track of hers I really loved. I'm just biding my time until she straps her Firebird back on and cranks the overdrive up again!! The 50ft Queenie shall rise again!! 😈😈😈

Ecstacy got me more into this song then i was already, that and butthole surfers pepper oddly enough.lol

we are Peaky foookinn Blinders !

Nice to see analogue tape being used. I think this is Polly's best album, better than Let England Shake.

F*cking peaky 😂

Peaky Blinders 🙏🏾

The Following rules!!!

yea, it's Peaky Time....very nice song.

This song scares the shit out of me.

Treze Dias Longe do Sol.
