Babyshambles - Sedative

[tcapulett]

THIS was on the F****** Blinding??!!! The Blinding was gobshite, this is fucking amazing!

[dancetotheradio1]

the chorus to this song gives me shivers every time I listen to it.

[JoyousinJesus]

Say NO to crack, Pete!

[Parisfraz200]

remember when 1waytkt2tkltwn put this up ........those were the good old days, pete is forever the unlikeliest king of indie music

[Carlos111111able]

This man´s got a big talent to make songs like this one. Pete keep away from the drugs you weirdo

[whatashambles1]

the ep this came off is the best stuff pete has ever done.

[WizzyDollarBill]

good song represents the feelings of being an addict well

[bob96417]

underated song

[0211brucetube]

@bob96417 totally

[simionTheOne]

this song is fucking rad

the vid is just fabulous

[RoughOutlineProduce]

The meaning of this song is cats make everything slightly better.

[yanteroses]

estoy con sed!!!!

[fuckfacefuckoff]

18 people havent seen the morning sun

[anna5059]

0:00 - 0:31: introduction.... 0:31 2:39: it's like someone s telling an up-and-down life story.. (2:39 - 2:45 love the piano in the background.. it's like a startup to the following:) 2:45 highlight/summary/solution of the song..

great order.. great song! mesmerising!

[parisianna87]

this is desert

[Abujamra1995]

Is it Pete Doherty's cat?

[xxxo93]

Such a beautiful song, it feels like the verses are the calm and numbness which the drug brings across, and the chorus is the rush of feeling when the feelings come back and you can see reality again.

[iandennis1]

Genius

[shambler92]

all the shit of the world disappears just for an instant, that little instant before the chorus, and for a moment I'm completely happy.

[williamjamesbrow01]

@shambler92 concur. completely.

[arcticfan88]

@shambler92 perfect analogy

[planetprince67]

@shambler92 exactly - with this song more than any other with this song more than any other by anyone.

[lollerz16]

@shambler92 I'm sorry but what a gay comment. Pete Doherty would be embarrassed for you after reading that.

[sidleyww]

love the song and the video. awesome

[Abujamra1995]

I don't like cats, but Pete's cat is absolutely very cute.

[whiskola]

18 people have no taste for music.

[MultiLiar]

@whiskola

Or didn't like this particular song/vid

[THE360Eclipse]

don't leave me hiiii. oh wait

[VampireFair]

I had a terrible headache.

Now after watching this video it's gone.

This song is magic.

[adamspun]

who the fuk is smoother than the doherty? hmmmmmmm



[yourstupid36]

why wasn't this on the album? that was a mistake Pete

[blairlogie]

TUNE !!!!!

[moto454]

the cats are the cutest thing and the footage goes wonderful with the song

[Saxonsoldiers]

One word- EPIC! And to think, this was not even the headline song of the EP.....That was the blinding....Pete you are and always be a fuckin legend mate, though we could do with something new now.....its been long enough!

[bevyk777]

This song 'adjusts my attitude' any time I need one! Always makes me feel good when I hear it...

[malpas182]

18 People were sedated whilst listening to this

[twistt]

@malpas182 just because someone's sedated doesn't mean they don't like music, dumbass lol

[Epths]

This and Albion are just so beautiful, I can never describe why they're such amazing songs but I could never get bored listening to them.

[mischtfieh]

I love this song so much... but I never heard the song live... sad :/

[chexycat]

BTW Im pretty sure it was filmed mainly in and around the cotswolds in gloucestershire/ oxfordshire where kate lives not yorkshire cus thats a shit hole.

[TheYuLeeAn]

FUCK THEM... I CANT DO MY FU***** HOMEWORK... I'm listening to this song again and again

[iamjessicat1]

Such a beautiful song. Pete is massively underrated, he's possibly one of the greatest writers today!

[fiftyninechickens]

the the fuck is it possible to like not be IN LOVE with this song

[mullinsification]

YORKSHIRE <3

[32wallace]

@mullinsification

3 is greater than Yorkshire?

[Balto92]

@32wallace Incompatible types. You can't compare a string with an integer.

[lootsorrow]

@Balto92 strings are encoded as integers so yes you can

[32wallace]

Don't leave me high, Don't leave me dry

[greyreview]

@32wallace lol the opening drums reminded me of that

[Allytherevepavillion]

remiends me of golden sunsets in autum london

[freesaladsauce]

I believe The Blinding EP was the Shambles at their best. This song proves it.

[bluenosepirate]

SEDATIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIVE

[KOLINAAA]

Peter destroyed his image but he kept his high spirituality

[seanphurley]

i simply do not believe any other singer could make this song come to life the way it did. I sincerely believe that at the hands of another band, this song wouldnt have been half of what it is.

[darknirvana9]

Such a cute cats =) and song obviously!!

[Leelikesitfit]

I love pete

[markaspag]

right, thats set me up for the day! wonderful!

[AdrianHiitman]

Like the band and the cats on their MVs

[FirstAid256]

sedative !

damm right. fucking great song.

go on pete

[olddoctor]

Opz, I did 1 time toomuch,guess we have to live with that,

I dont have the strength to throw it in the trash,

And out of time perhaps also, so I rest and think us inside the realms of this song dragged into its grip, but as said before, gentle and free we become,moment u close that door behind your Before.Enter After-Enjoying it so much we begin destroying what was 1nce theirselves,they turn angels,devils, elves,whatevr,but- No danger,pain&stress fading way,staying away,decaying, we´ll see.

[olddoctor]

I didnt know a thing really bout these characters but the song hit me and brought me drowse into deep personal deadzone;in this so-called life thats good. And the lyrics are spottelyspot-on,a long long time since I crawled out also.Morning sun burns too bad.I salute you,evry1 of us -hope for future: all of us floatin in air by ourselves, just feeling aaallllriiiggghhht. Forever.Just drift -nomore pain!- just slowly, gentle, rain.No remorse.Just sedative dust. Drift, lift, get extatic, automatic!

[olddoctor]

I didnt know a thing really bout these characters but the song hit me and brought me drowse into deep personal deadzone;in this so called life thats good. And the lyrics are certainly spottely spot on, been a long long time since I crawled outside really...morning sun burns too bad.

Nice tune! I salute everyone of us - hope future means all of us floatin round thru air by ourselves, just feeling aaaallllriiiiiggghhht, forever. Only breathing - no pain - just drowsy gentle rain, no memories

[ClerEv]

Kate Moss was actually filming, isn't it?

[alistairproductions]

@ClerEv pretty sure that you're correct

[sickofallmykicks]

@ClerEv of course she was!

[twistt]

Man I'm addicted to pain killers and Pete Doherty is my reason for quitting. and I have to take sedatives for seizures and panic attacks cause I couldn't go outside..

the chorus means a lot to me... I couldn't leave my house for 2 years until I was put on sedatives

I guess the song means different things to everyone, but that's what hits me.

[LogInAnders]

@twistt Somehow it means the same to me not so much about stepping out to the morning sun as to stepping out in general. Good on ya!

[Evelinabeauty]

love this Song :D

[hughie278]

LOL@bloodxalibi but i agree all the way :-)

[unmemorablehero]

Alright.....Pete doherty is the jim morrison or our generation. A fucked up piece of shit that makes BEAUTIFUL music.

[adamspun]

@unmemorablehero agreed

[adamspun]

awsome

[FKalicePD]

This song is one of the best i ever heard!

[TERRIMOO07]

[ACM1903]

[ACM1903]

[carterpatrick17]

big 'high and dry' drum opening there

[Klara7904]

..........It's been a long long time since i've stepped outside...to the morning sun...LOVE IT...SO TRUE!!!!

[citi23n]

maybe also a heroin addict

[HighNiggerPie]

@citi23n perhaps, but so am i, but i still step outside to score. =o]

[Bretwantsfun]

he was at that paranoid stage, we've all been there.

Peters was more creative though (as you can imagine)

He thought the IRA and the police had teamed up to 'get' him. lol

when he managed to get his head together, he realised how daft it was....then he wrote this song before going out.

[nodi1000]

What's it really like now, it's been a long long time since I've step outside, to the morning sun now, would you take me out, take me by the hand now it's been a long, long time since I've step outside to the morning sun. SEDATIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

perfect!!!!!!!

[JasySykes93]

Seeedatiiiive. <3

great song to fall asleep.

i love it. his voice is so sedative. :P

[JamesBeam420]

does anyone know the lyrics from about 1:13 - 1:16 when pete starts saying something really fast? I'm trying to find the lyrics to the song, can make out em all except that part.

[ShambolicSwinny]

i don't even think pete knows what he said there haha

[sartrevski]

Really easy he said:

And i did alolfovorklmoawamalofomo

you didn't snap? :D

[rosskafkaateme]

great, great, great song.

[mista1kaos]

BIG TRACK..

[adelimz]

sedative <3 *

[adelimz]

SEVATIVE <3

[anna5059]

2:40 - des klavier so im hintergrund is toll :-D

(the piano in the background is great!!)

[AnneLiseMham]

Great song !

[RetroGuy5000]

love this song ♪

sedative♪

[nebuchadnausor]

sedative ....yes peter you re right vive la france peace to my english friends signe un pur fan de peter

[hughie278]

A Frenchman was just polite to the English. Must be global warming. Pete does love France, i give you that

[CoinInsertion]

The start bit reminds me of High And Dry by Radiohead :)

[erinlobrien]

haha i was seriously just thinking that

[grungepunk93]

the chorus sounds like pipe down

[dspslade]

love it!

[ShOwStOpp3rr]

wow kick ass song!!

[Praxilla]

This is my "go to sleep" song. I play it when I know I need to nod off soon. Works every time. Like a hypnosis would, it slowly relaxes my muscles, till I'm ready to fall off..

[bbabyshambles]

wow, it's mine too! :D

[BsUeFFvAeLnO]

i know what you mean ... even though you can interpret that as you saying "i think this song is dull as fuck" . lol.

[tamzinnnn]

@Praxilla That's all the Ket pete was on when singing this ;)

[muchtoocrazy]

@Praxilla I'm gonna try this when I go to bed soon :)

[Bretwantsfun]

i love this song! espescially when im sedated myself....just feels like its passing straight through my body...

[The5Aspargus]

repeat repeat repeat! I loove thiiiiiiiiiiiissssssssssssssss­ssssssssss!!!!!! Blows my mind awaaaaaay

[LogInAnders]

I wish I could remember my first reaction when I heard this song, it's been so long time ago.

Oh well, I've got great memories with this song.

To me, this is a winter song, when it is dark and cold outside, I sedate myself with the dreamy feeling.

[mydadwasaCramps]

@LogInAnders The same .

[dspslade]

love it

[karaninakaramazov]

That was the reaction I heard when I first heard them.

[bloodxalibi]

WOAH. OMFG. I'm speechless. Absolutely fuckin speechless. I'm fuckin AMAZED. Honestly amazed. They're SO good.

And when the chorus came on, the sound was so rich and so full, and the melody so merry, oh I instantly fell in love with the fuckin song. Oh god, whoever participated into writing/playing/singing this song is THE shit. I swear to god. <33 4ever. ^-^

[spearthrower69]

@bloodxalibi CHANGE YOUR PANTS :D

[alistairproductions]

@bloodxalibi agree completely

[YoblokaKalishnikova]

@bloodxalibi i know! it's an eargasmic song!

[DaveS12382]

@bloodxalibi I know right? I know I'll get shit for this to but its right on par with the likes of something like "Hey Jude" as far as musically and the sing along chorus. just unbeleivable stuff from Doherty who I maintain is the most talented and interesting music artist of today hands down.

[doobiescoo1]

@DaveS12382 I'm cool with that assessment, bro....

[ToniMoni100]

sedative

[BackRockDelta]

Only just noticed how much the drum intro sounds like High and Dry by Radiohead, maybe it's a homage to them. Love Pete, Love Carl and Love Radiohead

[fontTas]

agreed. both great songs. i don't thing this song really needs the intro though.

[AnneLiseMham]

Yeah, it's the exact same intro !

[fleur452]

Cette chanson est réellement magnifique il n'y as aucuns mots pour décrire ce que je ressent en l'écoutant ! WE LOVE PETER DOHERTY ! <3

[freedolfa]

this song reminds me a lot "heroine" of velvet underground.... however, I love this song

[rockfeller2005]

yeh sames

he seems like hes laid himself bare and naked in this song

[NjoyVjoy]

same!

[planetjanine]

aw his cat is sooo cute! :D Pete Doherty is so awesome and talented and very cute! :)) I want to meet him someday.

[freedolfa]

I agree :D

[Bretwantsfun]

when he wrote this he went a bit doo-lally he thought the police and th IRA teamed up to get him so he never left the house, drugs made him paranoid. thats why the song "sedative' he sings 'its been a long time since i stepped outside'

[jcderoch]

Random factoid: Kate Moss filmed the concert footage of them playing Sedative at Glastonbury used in this video. You can see her holding the super 8 cam at the side of the stage if you look at the 'official' footage.

[enPopdreng]

Yeah, that's a funny detail :)

[panicboixd]

lol, at the scene on 1:15, pete gets bottled

[TheKorny91]

I like it ;p

[luvrofvillevalo]

I LOVE PETE DOHERTY!!!

[miraeja]

wow super 8s just give everything that special something

[chokumba]

[fishc4nfly]

Peter Doherty he just cant go wrong everything he does is Genius. What a legend!!! <3

[Simyeah2112]

Love this song.... hear it all the time...

[CellsViale]

Peter Doherty is a poet...

"Take me by the hand now it's been a long, long time since I've step outside♥"

[kabezabolo]
