And there's me only just discovered her!

From my perspective "Let England Shake" is her first album. I've since caught up a bit (old discussion below documents this) but I've heard nothing to match the brilliance of her current offering.

.....and Bill Wyman is 75 today.

Mind you, Bill has always looked about 75!

Bought 'Let England Shake',

thought 'hey, this is rather good'.

Never listened to it since.

( I do this a lot these days ).

She's turned 42...

and she's still a fox of the highest order. If you're reading this Polly, I look like Michelangelo's David (ignoring the "sculpture tackle") and can be reached via The Word magazine.

i am short, fat and 48 (form an orderly queue Word birds)

so this comment is not based on any sense of 'man assesses woman via aesthetics and fails to remove large plank out of own eye' ... but one of PJH's fascinating qualities is her ability to sometimes take her elfin, angular frame - and jolie laide looks - bedeck them in big hair, big lipstick, heels and sexy gear (all or some of the above, over her career, see pink catsuit passim), then do 'sexy' while simultaneously subverting 'sexy' in the traditional blonde booblitude rawk chick sense ... in various videos/live performances she has self-consciously played on her sexuality - while doing forthright tunes like Rid Of Me or Sheela Na Gig - without compromising herself (i think) and that's very attractive ...

or in a pithier form, what Patrick said

She can play on my sexuality...

as much and as often as she likes.
