I came to watch a nice relaxing music video and it began with an advert of a man in tight pants dancing around an electrical store. No further comment needed.
Honestly, I think Peter Doherty is the greatest lyraccist I've ever heard. In The Libertines, in the Babyshambles, his solo work his lyrics are just incredible. God bless him
nah Stephen street is a good producer, it's just his style is way more clean cut compared to Mick Jones work on the libs albums and Down in Albion, personally i prefer Mick's production to some extent but Street's mixes seem more consistent.
@djboony petes acoustic demos have always shown a softer and more ray davies-esque songwriter side to him. i dont blame street or coxon for that and obviously pete was happy enough w/ the final product.
@evgad87 this isnt an acoustic demo its an over produced album track, pete doesnt have a choice in the matter he turns up does his vocals and leaves as it is probably stipulated in his record contract, just how it works
@djboony i'm saying tho that complaining about pete sounding too soft and "imasculated" on this album doesn't make sense if you've ever enjoyed a lot of his earlier released acoustic demos. the purpose of this album was to show a different side to him. pete's an indie artist, not britney spears. he has quite a bit of say in his music and recordings and he was obviously content with this work.
@evgad87 your naivity is charming but cant you see hes just making some money by making some pop records on a major label? his soft side is jazz, not maudlin confection like shotters nation. you cant be "indie" if your not on an independant label, thats what it means.
@djboony i dont see how you can call this a pop record tho. there's not a single song on there that would be a smash hit worldwide. pete's music is hardly even dominating the charts in the UK let alone elsewhere. the industry is smart enough to know how to manufacture a pop star and he hardly fits the mould.
Peter is that rare artist who has the gift of being able to turn pain into poetry, to transform grim reality into something beautiful and pure. His songs become richer with meaning and connection with each listen.
this song is just one of the best songs i've ever heard...actually when I first heard it I couldn't stop myself from just jumping aroung in my room and going completely mental cause I got a little bit to excited... but anyways, lovely!
got the album today, shows petes poetic more sensative side, how canj you not love this album, some old demo and unrealsed song really tuned up nicely.
whatever disliked this is weerd tbh lol
