Rid of Me is PJ Harvey's second album, released in 1993. It marked a rawer and more aggressive sound than her debut Dry (1992). The record is best remembered for the singles "50 ft. Queenie" and "Man-Size."Nirvana hired Steve Albini, the album's producer, afterwards to record In Utero (1993) for them.The music videos for "50ft. Queenie" and "Man-Size" were once featured in an episode of Beavis And Butthead.Tracklist: "Rid of Me" (4:28) "Missed" (4:25) "Legs" (3:40) "Rub 'Til It Bleeds" (5:03) "Hook" (3:57) "Man-Size Sextet" (2:18) "Highway 61 Revisited" (2:57) "50ft. Queenie" (2:23) "Yuri-G" (3:28) "Man-Size" (3:16) "Dry" (3:23) "Me-Jane" (2:42) "Snake" (1:36) "Ecstasy" (4:26) |

Darker and Edgier: The album is more raw and aggressive than Dry. Similarly P.J.'s cover of "Highway 61 Revisited" is darker than Bob Dylan's light-hearted original. |

Shout-Out |
| | Rid of Me (Music) / int_c75df49a |
comment |
Shout-Out: The line "don't you wish you never met her" from "Rid Of Me" is a nod to a line from "Dirty Blue Gene" from Captain Beefheart's Doc at the Radar Station. "50 ft. Queenie" is inspired by the B-movie Attack of the 50 Foot Woman. It also namedrops Giacomo Casanova. "Me-Jane" references Tarzan a few times: "Yuri-G" is a shout-out to Yuri Gagarin. |
