  • One night I had this video on repeat for 8 hours straight.  Never got tired of it once <3

  • so much love for this song!!!!

  • Sorry...I meant to say... a person's talent and drug habit are two different animals.

  • If we had cameras and gossip rags 24/7 following every minutia of our rock hero's lives of yesteryear I'm sure the shine would be off them as well. Could you imagine what we'd think of Kieth Richards if we saw him everyday fucked out of his head when he was on the smack or Jim Morrison all wacked out? We'd have a different impression of them for sure. We a person talent and drug habit are two different animals.Is he a junkie? fucking A he is and he's undoubtedly talented as well.

  • Wow such a beautiful performance. Have to see him live before he dies or gets old.

  • which year is that?he looks very young and he dont have the tattoo with his sons name (astile)..????

  • @RieteDeLaNoche 2007

  • @overbassbyparadox

    attempt for a thumbs up?

  • talent ? more like throwing in random words !

  • @stuartic what the fuck is wrong with you.

  • @stuartic It's called poetry...random words can create great things....something which you can't appreciate which is unfortunate...

  • @mward1995 your wrong wardy m8 !!!! :)

  • @stuartic I'm not wrong "mate." As I said before you can't appreciate this fucking great music which is a shame, if you don't like it then "why don't you fuck off?" -Babyshambles song reference btw.

  • @mward1995 thats why hes a super star lol nah hes just a junkie fuck !!!!

  • @stuartic yeah but on his death bed hed be like i shagged the biggest super model in the world ,,he up there with georgie best

  • @reksub10 nah she's no the nicest burd in the world m8 and georgie best is an actual legend he was shagging burd like that every second day !

  • @stuartic yeah i actually agree with you ,pete couldnt eat georgie best's crusts ,and although kate might be a massive super model ,i bet shes an arse

  • Get up off your back

    Stop smoking...that

  • eargasm... no word to describe this live. it simply touches you soul.

  • what am a waiting for cookiemonstaman1 lol?

  • NUFFA SIGNING for steffani records pete doherty solo xx promise babe

  • I've violated the replay button on this video.

  • He's looking very healthy in this vid. Good on him... a great proformance!

  • absoloutley amazing

  • there's jus somthing about peter that everyone likes, i just hope oneday he will find his peace without drug's like eminem

  • I really want to hate him for being such a fool with the drugs and stuff, but fairplay, that man is smarter than the media makes him out to be.

  • @NERDbub why would you hate him for doing drugs? almost all the great musical geniuses used drugs. you can't hate them for the fact that life makes a lot more sense when you're high.

  • @Cthulhu767 you made a massive cunt of yourself with your comments, gave me a good laugh . Thanks

  • wit a tune

  • *chills *sigh amazing =')

  • Omg I Love Him So Much! Theres Only One Pete Doherty In the World, ITHink No1 Can Compare

  • My God, he's just perfect <3

  • @plasticbudgie Well Maybe ... Noel is just a commercial production totally made up by fame , he is small .. !

  • @kreig95 and kate moss and drigs made pete so . .. swings both ways

  • Oh I didn't think peter wanted this .. but well it happened

  • I miss this show.

  • genius is the only word to describe him.

  • SIMPLY WONDERFUL

  • "Do you think you'll change their mind?" YES! I definately think Peter can change their minds! Anyone with ears, a heart and any kind of depth will 'hear' what he is offering us, the gift of unique music like this. Anything else about his personal life - gossip etc, is his business.

  • @bevyk777 Well said! Pete is a genius, no doubt.

  • wonderfull

  • He looks so fresh faced and beautiful

  • One AMAZING guy!

  • Amazing how one man with a guitar (and who isn't exactly the best guitarist ever) can be so mesmerizing.

  • @jacobplaisance

    thats a real artist,, you can get other people to sing and play the same thing, but a real artists are just born with something special that makes them stand out and makes ppl listen. but hes a murderer

  • this is a very beautiful song:)))))

    i love you pete

  • i prefer this one to the babyshambles radio edit.

  • @angyman hi! this is my favorite version of him singing this too!

  • jealous that you dont have a talent like that?

  • @Jami3C1 just wait 

  • @Jami3C1 He is what he is , as buddha would have said

  • This is so beautiful. I love Pete no matter how many times he fucks something up.

  • That was utterly lovely.

  • His charisma and talent are so huge, that you cannot pack it in one comment.

  • Magnifique et touchant a la fois, ce mec est un genie.

  • You don't know how lucky you are. I'm from Chile and I'd give everything to see a musician like Pete walking on the streets or singinig in my tv.

    However, I really love English music.

    pd: Please excuse my "english"

  • @SrPieer your english is fantastic!

  • Please can someone tell me what make/model his guitar is? i will give them a mental kiss on the cheek if the can tell me.

  • @finchy633 It's a Gibson from the '50s I belive. An L-5? I think it's an early L model

  • Before seeing this when it was on TV, I disliked Pete as all I'd heard about him had been from the press. I saw this, and the next day I baught a Babyshambles and a Libertines album. Stunning performance, so beautiful <3

  • @jjjessicagoodman Too right. It doesn't matter if you love him, hate him or somewhere in between, as long as that decision has been made on merit, not just tabloid headlines.

  • it's amazing how good he sounds, just him and the guitar.

  • Gay? yeah - Screwing Kate Moss is defiantly a sign of being a faggot....

  • He is a faggot.

  • @cacicula Your intellectual an spiritual prowess amaze me, you should seriously focus on a career in the arts...

  • @cacicula Nah mate, you're just a twat! He's bi i think anyway ;)

  • @beakon1234 hes not gay or bi, he makes up stories all the time about his past to mess with people, and that one happened to make it into a book

  • Comment removed

  • @Cthulhu767 This is my last comment.

    I'm pretty enough. You're implying that being a young woman makes me unsuitable for such a conversation.

    It was me who called you a poet. If you write poetry (which you said you do) then you must be a poet. Simple. But... is what you write real poetry?

    "Assuming statement"? It's a fact. You write awfully. Are your fingers too delicate to type? Terms like "asinine" won't save your soul.

    Forget the author, forget yourself! It was always about the line!!

  • Peter Doherty captivates everyones attention. For most of us it is his natural born talent that draws our attention - but I think even the people that don't like him are captivated by whatever it is that he has...they love to watch him to look for things they don't like about him. But I don't think they realize that here they are watching him too! So either way, he attracts people. We watch & listen,LOVE him or HATE him - if you are reading this, you are watching him... he got your attention.

  • pete could sing savageness out of a bear

  • @Cthulhu767

    @adrasteax

    Arguing on the internet is like running the special olympics... It doesnt mind if you win, you are still retarded.

  • for simon with love

  • @Cthulhu767 Of course it's your opinion, Doherty's work may be overrated but it definitely has some real highlights.

    You're judging the mastery of that line by comparing it to the way you write poetry, but that, in principle, wouldn't make it a bad line but just part of a different style of writing.

    I'd really like to read your poetry, honestly. You made me curious.

    And no, I didn't insult you, and I'm far from asinine.

    By the way, last time I checked, poets knew how to spell.

  • @Cthulhu767

    a) God hasn't got anything to do with this.

    b) Anyone could deduce from the way you write and your few Youtube favourites that Peter Doherty just isn't for you. What the hell are you doing here?

    c) What I said about the way you express yourself was just a side comment. This isn't about you.

    d) I haven't insulted you. You did insult me, though.

    e) You missed the main point, which is the analysis of the line that I praised months ago and you dismissed as 'bullshit'.

  • @Cthulhu767 Do you know what alliteration is? That, paired with the notion that birds (literally speaking) are light and not heavy contrasted with the figurative idea that girls are a weary load for the whole of a man's being makes it a really well thought out line. That's why I said it was beautifully crafted.

    I really hoped someone would realize this too.

    You seem to come from the United Kingdom. English is not my mother tongue and I find it apalling that you can't express yourself gracefully.

  • god, he's perfection.

  • i simply jizz when he starts singing

  • When was this?

    In this video he looks so different as in all the others...so decent..

  • till i grew up? hmmm

  • he's an artist: poet, composer, painter,...He may be a "junkie", he's awesome and no one can't say it otherwise! he doesn't wanted to end this way! when I saw his performance in France, he was ...speachless! long live Peter! He's the last rock star of this fucking century

  • @byrbypypy let's hope not, I mean in case I have kids I'd like them to have their own doherty like us. I really don't wanna think that camp rock and justin bieber are all which is reserved for the future generations, I fucking pity them

  • when he sings "Bird is just Burden" he's talking about prison not a woman

    bird is slang for prison too

  • @hollandc27 or it means both as a conceit, thats the beauty

  • oh Pete.. :) He's such a talented man..

  • 34 "people" dislike this........unbelieveable are you deaf?

  • qué hermosa que es su voz

  • Dont ever stop being who you want to be pete.

  • @MattNewton07

    Who does he want to be?

  • @MattNewton07 He is what he is , as buddha would have said

  • @MattNewton07 you actually think he's happy with who he is?

  • Hermosooo

  • extraordinary

  • I can't get over how beautiful this is, the song AND Peter.

  • i no ul never change ur ways and dont peter stop yhe H dooooooooooooooo!!

  • I never said it was a beautifully crafted line.

    I just answered your question of what it meant.

    Though i do think it fits in well with the rest of the lyrics...since i think the song is about a woman in his life that he has lost...and now he's miserable thinking to himself that a woman is just too much work for any man to handle.

    The chorus could be about either killing time or himself with drugs...or maybe killing her since if he cant have her no one can...but his is just my interpretation.

  • For the first time I understand why even Kate Moss could love him. 

  • poet

  • It means a that a woman is just a burden

  • i heard this song once on accident, it opened the door to so much more music to me. i love it

  • what a fuckin song one of thhe best ones..........................­...sheepskin tearaway is a fat one aswell tho

    lyrics worth the three minutes alone

  • He's just wonderful!

    Really talented, he looks great too :)

    It's never enough

    I could put it on repeat all day long!

    LOVE PETE A LOT (L)

  • Comment removed

  • legend!

  • ...this is for a first time I see him looks great...drugs are rubbish...and this one is my favourite ♥

  • lalalalaaaa <3

  • "A bird is a burden" Such a beatifully crafted line.

  • is he not allowed to say crack?

  • @lovechild98 hell do what he wants...crack is crass...that, is better

  • Whatta legendd <3 xx

  • What guitar is that??

  • @BigNoseMusic its a gretsch. not sure which model but its one of the old jazz guitars. like big band guitarists used to play them coz of the warm tone. such a nice instrument :)

  • @TpaparazziK I´ve looked around and I´m pretty sure that it´s a Gibson L5.

    I wish I could afford one..

  • @BigNoseMusic its the same guitar as he uses here check him playing LAOM at the secc out. he gets such a nice tone

    but yeah they're really expensive :( look at the gretsch ones tho coz they're cheaper by a bit.

  • @TpaparazziK

    Godin makes good archtops too..

    But I'm saving for an Epiphone Casino :) they aren't bad, good enough for me and affordable. If my expectations are right I got one in july/august :)

  • @BigNoseMusic i'd say try the epihone ej-200. rle gud guitar n u can pick 1 up 4 around £250

  • @BigNoseMusic

    ITs a gibson es125

    i thinks it's a 1955 model.

  • The lyrics in this song are nothing short of genius.

    They are clever, ambiguous, heartfelt and just amazing.

    I genuinely believe Pete is one of the best songwriters of all time- certainly lyrically.

    Can't wait to see him reunited with the Libs this summer!

  • Comment removed

  • thats my fave pete song -_-

  • q hermoso q le keda el pelo asi

  • " a bird is just a burden"

    That will always be one of my favourite lyric- parts.

  • :') xxxxxxxxxxx

  • @johaaannaa classic

  • He looks so subtly there;p Nice performance..

  • (L)

  • B O M B

  • omg my heart drops

    i fall in love instantly

  • this is the best accoustic version of this song iv heard on youtube-----class

  • chorus music sounds familiar?

  • my heart skips and speeds up when I listen to him <3

    this is lovely. he's such a wonderful person <3

  • I understand girls loving him cause he's like fucking cool, and awesome singer, but why do they all say he's a wonderful person?!? He seems reasonable enough, but he hasn't cured cancer or anything

  • people can be wonderful even though they haven'r cured cancer or anything like that. lots of people are. hopefully, you are wonderful to someone as well.

    and it just really depends on who you're asking :)

  • @davyjames its things like the unrecognised anti racism work and the Dan Squires tribute gig. Also the openness with fans and keeping everyone safe at Reading Fest when there was a fire.

    You will never hear much about it from the press though

  • It's amazing how beautiful Pete's acoustic performances are!

  • no you wont change there minds...

    it all must be so scary realy.

  • Fuck, this performance is so good!

  • lost my phone in paradise too, "you thinkn you're living in heaven but you're living in hell", Robert Nestor Marley's birthday coming - bigup pete innit

  • beautiful song. beautiful lyrics
