PJ Harvey - Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea album cover | |||||||||||||||
Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea is an album by English singer-songwriter PJ Harvey, released on October 23, 2000. It became the second major commercial success of PJ Harvey’s career, following her successful 1995 breakthrough To Bring You My Love. The album sold slightly over one million copies worldwide, and went gold in America, helped there by generous college radio airplay. Although it peaked at #42 in the U.S. and a modest #23 in the UK, it became a sleeper hit that quietly hung around the middle reaches of the album charts for a full year after its release.
Reviews too were exceptionally strong, with Rolling Stone praising it as “the best album of her career” and NME hailing it "a magnificent, life-affirming opus". Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea also brought Harvey BRIT Award nominations as Best British Female Artist for two years running, as well as two Grammy nominations for Best Rock Album and Best Female Rock Performance for the single "This Is Love". The album featured a duet with Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke on the track "This Mess We're In", as well as backing vocals and keyboards from Yorke on the songs "One Line" and "Beautiful Feeling".
