I've loved this song for a long long time but never found out who it was by until yesterday and i'm truly shocked and surprised that a tool like Pete Doherty could sing such an ace song lol
Absolutely brilliant beyond simple lyrics put forward in a way only he could ( yes I do know wolfman wrote it as I have the single) p.s check out back from the dead b side version to for lovers and not the album version
this song is the song of my ex girl... the girl I have loved more in this life....So, It´s emotional for me, but despite that, it´s one of the best love songs ever written
This song is extremely beautiful. Just absolutely amazing. I thought Peters other stuff was amazing, but this, well, this is just a whole other level of music.
@alessandralove22 I've been together with a drug addict, so I'll tell you that no, you don't really want to marry him. He is a genius, he is a poet and all that stuff. But you wouldn't actually want to be together with someone like him.
so tender and beutifull...thats the fuckin supberb thing about peter,he can give you the extreme high end rock n roll and also tug at you're heart strings with a ballad like this tune...gr8 combination...love all his stuff...want to be his bessie m8!...hehe
Dont you just wish he'd sort himself out once and for all and start making fuckin decent music again? He's a genius its such a shame that he's also a fucked up idiot.
@223Hadoken because he's a smack'ead I bet you don't say that about that guy who just asked you for 60p for the phone to spend the £10 he'd just made shoplifting knob!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@EmmaEmmaa95 You're lucks in! Today it was announced provided he was well behaved he would be released on the 21st August, days before Reading & Leeds!
@kaliyuta Yeah sure they went, "hmmmmmmm lets think of a title for this song........the chorus is "This is for Lovers" so lets copy Richard Ashcrofts A song for lovers. hahaha
@kaliyuta This song was actually written by Pete Wolfe aka 'The Wolfman' in the 90's; way before Richard Ashcrofts 'Song For The Lovers' was released.
students ruined this man. he was a happy young fella, selling the qpr fanzine.
now he's just another student lacky, no love for his fellow working class man and will always be sat in the shadow of our true hero, mr noel gallagher.
never swap the adidas for cowboy boots. skinny fit jeans will ensure your downfall.
@fondoogle I agree with you to a certain extent about the skinny jeans,but i think this man has a lot of love for the working class,i think Pete loves football.
@fondoogle i used to agree with you. But consider it this way; if the idea behind the working class mod is self improvement, then surely going to univeristy, being a "student", is all part of that wanting to 'improve'? The class divide is slowly (emphasize slowly) melting away. Its not where you are, its who you are. Its not the clothes you wear, its not your accent... its your soul.
Noel is one of my heros too (along with Simon Fowler and Richard Ashcroft), but education is important man.
@ewantee12 fyi, this video was recorded in Paris, not in England. The "Metropolitain" and the Sacré Coeur Cathedral we see in the video are definitely not part of the English landscape. You should change your description !
Auto-tune somehow doesn't suit Pete Doherty... That program was made for talentless popstars. I hope this was the last one where someone tried to make his voice "cleaner". It doesn't have to be that, It's cool just the way it is. I prefer the original Pete Doherty voice.
I'm running away with you that's all i ever do that's all we ever mean i forgive you everything meet me at the railroad bar about 7 oclock we joke while the sun goes down watch the lovers leaving town This is for lovers running away This is for lovers running away just for today I'm running away with you from yesterday's news let's leave it all behind help me back to my mind I've paid the penalty your the jailer rattling the key but the key is mine I keep a spare one every time
What the dick does that have to do with anything? Also, I'm happy you have the inside track on what Pete Doherty thinks/feels/intends. We should all be so lucky.
@Sneatio The drugs are not a promotion at all, Pete has an addiction- just the same as Kurt did. He doesn't do it for the publicity.
And when Pete's time does eventually come (hopefully a long time from now), he will be remembered for the brilliant music he wrote, because Pete isn't just a junky, he is a brilliant musician, a great lyricist, writes amazing music- just like Kurt was.
@Sneatio Why would you even compare these two artists? Drug addiction is the only similarity. And for the record Pete doesn't inject and never has. Pete is fucking good! And his music gives me more to relate to being from England myself. Kurt and Nirvana and legendary, thats a given. But to compare Pete Doherty and Kurt Cobain is to compare a dog to a cat.
@Sneatio chill out. we all know who kurt was. and being a drug addict isnt really good promotion just btw. did u even listen to the song you clicked on?
This really is a pretty love song, for all his faults the man is talented...and yes I know he didn't write this; lol!
