Better than nothing: PJ's Man-Size is listed as number 50 of Pitchfork's "The Top 50 Music Videos of the 1990s"!

"As late as the mid-90s, it was novel just to see certain artists in music videos. Hell, it was novel to see them in photographs, or magazines-- in any context outside of their record sleeves and live performances. The alt-rock boom pushed some artists into a brighter spotlight with larger music video budgets. But in the first half of the decade, clips for all but the biggest pop stars were modest affairs, typically without narrative or special effects. Seeing someone walk and talk and sing and move on video was a thrill in itself, and personality went a long way. Polly Jean Harvey certainly had personality. This simple yet arresting clip is a good example of both the limitations of those early videos and how an outsized presence could transcend those limitations."

Glad to see it, but she (and Maria, of course) deserved much more in my opinion

This, DBTW and C'mon Billy all deserve a mention. Notice how her videos are so much better than most? Such Presence! Her looks alone demand your attention.

True, even the Black hearted Love video which could hardly be more simple is great. Plus, you get to see her feet
