this song is perfect- ive been following Doherty's music since Up The Bracket. it's sad that the media focuses on his drug use & ignores his songwriting abilities.
The line at the end "I've been so good to that boy, why did he steal all of my lighters" was an improvised line by pete while he was digging into his pocket to find a light. The line was a reference to Pat. Pat and Pete were constantly stealing each others lighters. Eventually pete finds his lighter and goes to sit on a stool which is broken and he falls over and thats how the album ends....Genius!
your oppinion i am 1 of jim morrisons biggest fans and i happen to think pete is an amazingly talented poet there are not many people who come close to jim but i love pete he is brill, that is my oppinion "MATE"lolxxx
Yeah I to am a fan of pete but what you said is almost in the same league as amy winehouse calling herself a legend. Pete is a very awesome poet/musician BUT you gotta think long and hard before you do your comparisons. That's like saying George Bush is today's Alexander the great.... I couldn't think of any wacky comparisons sorry. To sum it up legends are legends for a reason if my kid listens to babyshambles 30 years from now fair enough but I know for a fact that people will still listen to
the only song in the world that can reduce me to tears

@FBF81 I know right? Maybe it's because it sounds so bitter but is sung so gracefully.

Here is when you realize that Pete Doherty is more than just a heroin junkie or a bad role model, he is a true genius and my all time music hero.
