[fondoogle]

watch?v=46CNp89_52Y

[somorastik]

I remember seeing this for the first time when I was a teenager, I realized music isnt just about the pop boys in bands.

[steamnesiac]

Pete's guitar playing in the intro is gorgeous.

[Jehubble]

haha thought for sure he was going to smash that guitar! Awesome!

[harryspoonpotter]

"Down in Albion, they're black and blue/ But we don't talk about that" Great opening line.

[murfballls]

so funny at 4.23! bit of frustration there cos the performance just wasnt going right for them here but glad he finished the song

[knightmare456]

Who's the smack heid playing the harmonica? Looks like they brought a random big issue seller in from the cold

[kurt5000yh]

@knightmare456 its mick whitnall you cunt.. The guitarist.

[knightmare456]

@kurt5000yh Thanks for the info you complete and utter TWAT

[kurt5000yh]

[ashoftomorrow]

@123dancewitme gary powell

:)

[JHDELIVERY22]

Peter Doherty the best lyricest of all time :)

[tonycatman]

Goes to show that being a magical, captivating performer has nothing whatever to do with having a good voice.

Makes you wonder why the X Factor - type shows bother.

[libertine94x]

this is beautiful

even if drew's singing doesnt make it as good, i think its nice he's joining in haha :)

[Philor94]

I prefer when Drew doesn't sing !

[alistairproductions]

i dont mind him singing in some tunes but it doesnt work here

[tenirpaslager]

what kind of hat is he wearing

[ewantee12]

"Trilby"

[MessagesToYourMind]

what year is this?

[Nicirichti]

2006

[ewantee12]

Babyshambles are my most favoured band right now I have all thier songs and albums.I love this song at the moment really British.what type of guitar is Pete Doherty playing.

[Cuandoeslachupa]

can you help me with some babyshambles songs??

[phish1085]

harmonica player is crreeeeppy

great song though

[steamnesiac]

Unless i'm mistaken, i'd say that is Mik Whitnall..................Baby­shambles full-time guitarist

[ooodzy]

yeah it is

[puppetless]

excellent performance, love the boutique stage, but I must say, if the lead singer brandished a guitar over my head like that I'd be brandishing my fist over his nose after the performance.

[flo0r]

aiai que linda cancion

[ksfnb]

Breck rd

[rockfeller2005]

goin for an emo fringe there,i see pete lol

[slvrstnthb]

[LondonToddy]

Beautiful

[stacie1420]

that is damn beautiful

[stevethemod87]

he mentions Coventry twice:P love it! then again he did used to live round the corner from cov in bedworth

[D4RR3N1967]

why does he take his guitar off ?:L:L

[Mitchell89Oasis]

[waffle1227]

Brilliant.

[r23tr4gfbrengerh]

genius

[dannyjar100]

this song makes me want to take nothing but an acoustic and travel by train around the country.

[arielswimming]

take me with you. xx

[zanginator08]

mick is sooo scary

[cheesefeet1234]

its a cool song love it like it live

[BrilloBox2b]

Mick is crazy here

[nikk1kk]

how beautiful they are :)

[Barrackas]

look at Mick, big junkie spaced out eyes peering over the mike lol

[u20gilpinj]

spondolla, u realy sound like the biggest cock i could ever possibly meet on this planet

[BackRockDelta]

Pete was lyrically smarter when he was with the Libertines, I think the problem with babyshambles is that there missing Carl, his added songwriting ability and Carl had a lot of energy at live shows which Pete fed off. All you have to do is watch a DPT concert to see Carls energy, still love the Shambles but, just don't think they are or can be as good as The Libertines

[tastexofxterror]

Well said. The energy between Pete and Carl is a key part of what made them so incredible live.

[Spookaduke100]

hahahah 1:29 he almost knocks mick out haha

[babyo100]

coventry!!!

woo

[xxxxlibertinexxxx]

peter is god

[stronghold15]

I love when they perform this song in concerts... and then he gets the crowd to yell places... Babyshambles are awesome!

[sPoNdOoLa]

Apparently the harmonica-dude has been busted for drugs recently. How do the police know who's taking them - it's almost like they've got a sixth sense or something? Ha.

[NelsonDagger]

your a cock

[sPoNdOoLa]

So I'm a cock am I? At least I'm not so jaw-droppingly, breathtakingly half-witted that I can't even write a three word diss and get it grammatically correct. It should read, 'you're a cock,' you fuckin' irrelevant simpleton. Owned. And so easily. I feel sorry for ya you lamebrained dimwit - guess some of us are just blessed and some of us are... well, you. Unlucky... I recommend suicide - there are painless methods you know? :)

[NelsonDagger]

lol spencer you spend way to much time on youtube ever considered going out once in a while socializing interacting with other human beings rather than ranting on youtube you internet hack joke owned

[sPoNdOoLa]

If I went out more often I'd probably run into dribbling dingbats like your goodself. Anyway, I work in a fucking club, gig in a band, write for a magazine and quite frankly, I'm bored of the lascivious poontang that constantly hound my phone. I do my YouTube ranting after this shit. Did quite like the 'internet hack joke' comment though. Ha ha. Peace.

[BIuejay]

You think you're smarter than you are. Watching you try to string together a supposedly 'intelligent' sentence is embarrassing, frankly.

[sPoNdOoLa]

At no point did I say I was smart or intelligent. I just merely pointed out the inaccuracies in an unprovoked insult.

I do get paid to write articles though, so er, my writing's clearly not that embarrassing, frankly... Obviously touched a nerve with you though. What's the problem? Get bullied at school for being special-needs by any chance? Claart.

[TractorMonthly]

sPoNdOoLa.

Urging someone to kill them selves is pretty abhorrent behavior.

It really goes against the grain of your socially conscientious blog or 'magazine'. Which is just a copy and paste job you miserable self important hack.

You do sound like a complete cock.

[TractorMonthly]

Damn sPoNdOoLa!!!!!!!!!!!!

You should get some professional help. You'll still be a cock but it might help you deal with it a bit better.

[Karkardream]

oh pete u ar awesome !

[jcnota13]

mik whitnall ruined that song

[deadroutine91]

FUCKING SICK PERFORMANCe ITS A SHAME THAT DRUGS RUIN A GR8 TALENT LIKE THAT !

X

[alistairproductions]

way off the mark

[alexthemod1]

how have drugs in any way shape or form ever hindered a musicians talent? if that were true, you wudnt have heard of them in the first place.

[deadroutine91]

well if he wernt on durgs he would still be wiv the libertines 100x's better then babyshambles and also he would be making even mnore music rather then being in and out of rehab and pirson

x

[alexthemod1]

100xs better in YOUR opinion! libertines songs were just more mainstream...hes trying to do more interesting things and avantgarde things, which not many people appreciate.

[deadroutine91]

naaa I Love babyshambles but they aint as good as libertines and them live aint that good either :/

soo idk yeah libs are beter in mine and other peeps opinion lol

x

[patatoon]

Pete is so amazing and he s so wonderful !

[bobeyres]

pete is god! and thats that!!!

[drgrl]

Peter has written and performed so many beautiful songs, but I think Albion is probably his masterpiece. It never fails to move me.

[JDA315]

i love that acoustic bass

[jaywoolsey]

pete is amazing.

fuck the haters.

fuck the sun.

[Rageagainst20]

Fuck the corrupt media

[pollenrox]

beauty personified.

x

[amilligan1]

he messed up at the "newcas..anywhere" bit but u cant deny Petes talent as a musician/song writer

[FrankesteinGirls]

When somebody doesnt like Pete, its usually cause of his drug problem , but im glad i can see past that :D, Love Pete, rock on!!

[ratons03]

super bassiste

[babyo100]

i just love it when he says coventry =D =D

[lewisavfc92]

this song reminds me how proud i am to be english, long live pete

[AlbionStillSailing]

Amazing amazing song! How can u not love them!

[volfy06]

Whaaaa, le mec a une voix de cistre. Le digne héritier d'Assurancetourix.

[shamblerswife95]

think this song is amazing as all his others are. Met him and he was a real gentleman not the viscious junkie the tabloids make him out to be. ..x

[award1992]

Don't get yourself too sucked into his world, it can hurt...

[philomenaisme]

why

[blueraspberryparis]

many many thanks for saying this =)

[StripesndSuch]

@shamblerswife95 Wow :) You met Pete Doherty... I wish I could meet him, I bet he's such a character. He really does come across as one anyway ;)

[celticricky32]

My mate hates pete, dunno why, think it's because of his drug abuse and the fact he was shaggin kate, but I can see past his flaws, we all have bad habits we have picked up in life and made silly mistakes...the guy is a great performer...superb!

[CherryPitMusic]

cool... i like it ;-)

[giovb87]

pete doherty is more famouse than jesus

[Rageagainst20]

Better.

[redmanonaroundabout]

He's not though, is he.

[antomanii]

drew's bass playing amazes me.

[punkclash05]

Is Pete usinf yellow Dunlop picks?

That's what I use!

[amoruah]

OMG

[alanor1]

sad bastard

[stonily]

i like this life version more then the cd version ... im sorry but that what i feel for the song.. :) here its perfekt interpet

[robertsm1k3]

is the harmonica player mick whitnall

[stescouse100]

It certainly is my friend

[yamahapacifita]

good performance apart from drew's singing we'll let him off though

[stescouse100]

My favorite song in the whole world.

[roryNlion]

the harmonica dude looks insane

[justthatchapLC]

in the membrane

[dhwngml]

The only thing wrong with this performance is actually nothing to do with Pete...it's Drew's flat singing. Normally he'sfine, but not here. Kind of throws the thing off.

Still beautiful though.

[yourthebhoy]

The bhoy on the harmonica is monged!!! LOL

love it, love the Shambles that is Babyshambles ;) Look past the drunks and its shear brillance..

If anybody says he's a drugie "I ALREADY NO"

[sustitutelover]

this si the best song from the libs and shambles collection, this is what Pete is all about

[0220768]

i love this verson of albion - with drew also singing, its perfect :)

[queenofpain87]

I think Pete has one of the most touching voice ever...

[Albion07room]

down in Albion is the best song of Baby Shambles,,

[huggyshow]

down in albion............

[kabezabolo]

i love this song :D

[robyn15123]

hah whys is Mik playing harmonica?

i love this song

[oldscool10]

Let's not mess about Mick's playing harmonica because his guitar playing is shite compared to Paddy Waldens........

[1waybacktothecrowd]

HAha you're right he's an amateur .

[ryanbaynes1985]

every other babyshambles video on youtube theres some1 harping on about paddy waldon and whos the best guitar player.

is it just me or arnt the babyshambles supposed to be ruff around the edges and unpolised?

fuk paddy waldon mik fucking up the guitar is just fine methinks x

[Paddehj]

Oh my god!! The guy on the harmonica is SO DOOFED

[Lookatmeamsandradee]

Great performance by a great band. How Good would it have been to be there. Might be still on drugs but his music is still greater than ever. This band are so undermind they are the best band out there in my mind, it the words that get me =)... Love you pete x

[benbebin]

still, there not the libertines

[Lookatmeamsandradee]

Thats True.. Not Many bands are better than the libertines.

[poliploydi9191]

except for the babyshambles

[Andre3614]

exactly, Babyshambes is better than Libertines... why? Cause Pete has always been the greatest of both bands, but I personally think Babyshambles has a really better melody than Libertines.. Libertines was punk rock and Babyshambles is a good rock band.

[camada14]

libertine wasn't just pank rock! they had their special way to make their music and i'm sorry, i really adore them more that the babyshambles. carl and pete were so cute together! i still wait for a libertines reunion.

and it would be also very great if pete made an album of his own!

but don't get me wrong, i really like the babyshambles.

[filthee1977]

Only one actually....THE CLASH.

[rememberwheni]

that dude on the harmonica looks pilled out of his mind

[TravisFreak666]

why does no one comment on drews bass in this song it is playing a brilliant counter melody which complements Pete Adam and Patrick both in this version and in the recorded version

[placidcasual1976]

wot a man pete is and wot a man mick is on mouth organ,legends

[portocervo1973]

Pete is a good musician,I don t give a shit if is an heroin addict,the babyshambles is the best indie band at the moment.

[bigeddielad]

This is the best version of this song ive heard, its awesome!

[portocervo1973]

agreed

[lifeistrippy]

Awesome performance, 5 Stars.

If any of you are interested then watch my video GoodNight. Guess its kindof Babyshambles Acoustic type style. Let me know what you think.

[lukeyboy05]

still think he looks like boy george here

[LoveableJoe]

Brilliant song, and performance, but goddam NME has become such a corporate shrill, look at all of those well placed elegant tables and that nice clean bar and the whole bloody room, it fucking annoys me that the NME is so manufactured now, they need a rough, shabby bar with smoke in the air and urine on the walls, WHY did they choose the O2 arena!?!

[oldscool10]

the enemy sold out long time ago my friend

[LoveableJoe]

We need a new music mag/award show that isnt such a c**t

[LoveableJoe]

We need a new music mag/award show that isnt such a c**t

[thejoebobaggins]

This is such a good performance.

[arcticmunkis]

i love pete....its so funny when he was about to smash his guitar...he realised there was more to sing

[littlelauren120]

i love pete (L) :)

[oOoOAnna]

Love this song...... could watch this vid everyday, i love babyshambles and i love Pete..... think you get my drift! He is so talented, watch the video before you tell me he's not!

[arcticlibs]

pete is a brilliant lyrasist and a genius

[alexthemod1]

yea he is a brilliant lyricist. that part was right.

[queenofpain87]

Pretty intense!

[adajensen]

pete doherty playing a taylor?

[CokedUpGirl]

Oh my god.. Pete I love you..

[quicquam]

it is really sad that most people don´t see his great talent in writing and performing songs...

some people only talk about his private life and don't know one of his songs at least!!!

I love his music and I think he is a great musician^^!!!

...

and I would even listen to this music if it were from mars :P

[lesliechoung]

Yeah you're right, me i'm glad because i first knew him as a musician and not as a junkie or Kate moss's boyfriend... I Looooove him he's so big !!!

[dudinhio]

@tonatherfirst: wherein germany do you live. I'm from bavaria, and most of the people i know like the babyshambles - even those who usually listen to hiphop.

i love the shambles, but i love the libertines even more. I miss carl.

@sintitulo: us and uk, both have great bands, but the percentage of crapy bands is much higher in the US. music in the uk is more authentic and less profit-oriented. I love british music.

by the way german music sucks :(

[Tonathefirst]

hi, ich lebe in der nähe von hamburg, und hier kennt bzw. mag kaum jemand die babyshambles oder die lib's, es denkt jeder, dass peter nur ein abgefuckter drogenjunkie ist. der hype um die lib's ist hier einfach nie angekommen. Wären die hier nach der ersten platte so gehypt worden wie in uk, sähe das ganz anders aus.

Aber ich kann nicht städig mit demo-bändern in der Tasche 'rumlaufen und den leuten erzählen, was für geniale musiker das sind, auch wenn ich manchmal schwer in versuchung gerate...

[humper1233]

speak english

[Tonathefirst]

he is such a great musician...and nobody in germany recognise that...

nicht, dass sich da jemand angegriffen fühlt, einige wenige wissen das schon, es sind nur zu wenige...

[huggyshow]

pete doherty rules

[petedoherty2]

his names drew mconnel

[fadingwhite]

Drew McConnell.

[petedoherty2]

sorry im diesplexic but im k.o now

[LadySaar83]

damn this is too good i can't handle it

[fellwell]

it really is that damn good isn't it

[adeletraynor]

proper proper love this.. i saw it when it was on tele when i'd just got the album n didnt think much of the studio version n it just blew me away.. one of petes best songs by far

[scottfyvvver]

This is an excellent version....was trying to find it again.....shows how well they can play....

[shellie1375]

Haha! Was he gonna smash up his guitar til he realised he needed it to finish the song

[gmanlikelylad]

till he remembered it was that plan b's guy guitar HAHAHAHAA

[wiwfir]

[Krissey88]

Drew McConnell
