Easy

PJ Harvey · 4-Track Demos [1993]

Oyster pearl

You easy girls

You're flapping in

You're shouting

You're dead good

All the men say

Legs wide, hips swinging like a doorway



Easy

Easy

Easy



I'm ranting

I'm raving

I'm taking in just everything

You're giving me no leeway

I opened once and you called me devil's gateway



Easy

Easy

Easy

Easy



And I deserve it

I asked for it

Have to admit it

We dress like targets

Yeah I deserve it

Give me no leeway

I'll give you fine times

You can call me devil's gateway



Easy

Easy

Easy (and I deserve it)

Easy (and I deserve it)

Easy - PJ Harvey

Released on the 1993 compilation 4-Track Demos, 'Easy' stands as a defining track from PJ Harvey's early career, showcasing her signature blend of gothic rock and atmospheric minimalism. The song features her distinctive, haunting vocal delivery layered over a sparse, rhythmic arrangement that became a hallmark of her sound during this period. As part of her broader discography from the mid-1990s, the recording captures the raw, introspective energy that would later influence the alternative and indie scenes. Its inclusion on this compilation highlights its status as a significant work in her catalogue, reflecting the experimental spirit of her debut era before she achieved mainstream recognition.
