Lady don't fall backwards - Peter Doherty

[@TheArcticBuckley]

This, with no doubt, the best, the saddest, the greatest, the most beautiful and broken heart love song of all time.

[@snowdrop4955]

A jewel ❤️

"once upon a time when the cold wind that blows in my heart was a summer breeze"

[@jonhill134]

[@albdreamgirl]

[@sapirmardan2557]

My ex played this song for me on our third date and I used to buy him flowers ever since. I miss him.

[@denniswipfli3847]

[@Imy47]

You don't always have to remember him as the "junkie scumbag", that's how the tabloids want you to see him... Yes, he has done drugs, Yes, he has been into troubles. But the music is the only thing that really reveals who the man really is : an outstanding poet and a sweet soul.

[@JoMalby]

Beautiful beautiful... Utterly *love* this album, every tune is amazing.

[@themartinipolice1998]

"Third girl" by Agatha Christie: The element of Ariadne Oliver's bookLady, Don't Fall Backwards mirrors that of Hancock's Half Hour TV episode "The Missing Page", in which Tony Hancock tries to find out who committed the murder in a book he had just read with a missing page, with Oliver's concierge, Alf Renny, telling her that he had read her book four times and still had no idea who did it.

[@JHDELIVERY22]

Unbelievable song :)

[@proviewlovely]

just to let u no there are a fair few songs by the beatles that are about drugs and they wrote songs whilst high on something thats what made them the best band in the world

[@dermot51]

[@lapallanonmente]

[@budntea]

I didn't like this song at first but now I love it... Meet me in china town for opium n tea... so dreamy

[@AlexLikesBritain]

yeah he's a genius.

[@pyroed7044]

Once upon a time When the cold wind that blows When the cold wind that blows in my heart It was a summer breeze and she Would meet me in Chinatown for opium and tea And she always brought me flowers But I spared you those old ballads Or songs that I couldn't play But every giro day She'd dress me like a lady boy And take me out of the way Don't let the horse chase the new deal away, no If we make love in the morning I see your eyes look like two marbles in your head Lady don't you fall backwards C'mon and fall into my arms Aw, don't you fall backwards Well, I wouldn't want for you to come to any harm Now tell me, if darkness comes Then I will sing you a song And I will love you forever At least 'til morning comes Lady don't you fall backwards Come on and fall into my arms Come on and fall into my arms

[@ChrisHenniker]

He reminds me of Ray Davis. I'd love to hear Doherty do some rockabilly or early R&B, just to see what that would be like.

[@VCGCHILE]

🎶🎵❤🎵🎶❤

[@brassmonkeyweather]

@duallgunner that is so true...

[@KenKobayashiRasmussen]

pretty fucking great song!

[@crystalblur3]

oh Pete.my goodness.

[@eskimo0906]

Oh I know that now, I listened to a few of his songs and they aren't bad at all!! :)

[@kadathsmith]

I love his celebration of Englishness.

[@zakkyvicious1]

i do love this song... pat should have been on the album though carl could have sang the odd song on it too, that would have made it really

[@EricaBarone-b3u]

❤❤❤😂😂😂😂❤❤❤

[@eskimo0906]

This is the first of his songs I have ever heard, its lovely but I can't get the massi ve drug use out of my head so I'm torn!!

[@conspicuouspancake]

when the cold wind that blows when the cold wind that blows in my heart was a summers breeze, and she would meet me in china town, for opium and tea and she always brought me flowers but i spared you those old ballads and songs that i couldnt play every giro day you dressed me like a lady boy and chased me high out of the way dont let the horse chase the new deal away if we make love in the mourning i see your eyes look like 2 marbles in your head

[@MajorBerk1089]

@JasySykes93 Shame the sentences he recieves from others aren't half as beautiful.

[@bournville511]

Once upon a time...........

[@trickpanda]

whatever they are just not intelligent or romantic enough to understand this beauty

[@scamaropppi]

is he a proud boy (?)

[@furrneck]

who are you talking to?

[@barbylios]

Does anyone know the chords to this?

[@xavierjochaud7979]

Basically. Amb em C7 F7 Bb7 Eb7 variation in D E A F for the chorus

[@eskimo0906]

never said he was the only one to have gotten into it so don't make it out like I did.

[@chizvicious8353]

Is this song about Amy winehouse?

[@milk_cow_blues]

the perfect song to dedicate to a girl

[@peterdcarter1]

i love poor old Tony Hancock

Il était une fois un homme qui vous ..

[@OUTOFBODYBAND]

maybe

[@eskimo0906]

Ok don't go getting snotty with me. I'm not saying there aren't others who do drugs. Look at Phil Lynott, a total legend and one who died of a drugs overdose. Many poeple still rave about Elvis (not my cup of tea but anyway) and he died the same. Beatles, I read somewhere that lucy in the sky was about LSD, they said it was from a picture one of their children drew. We could go all day listing off others who have (or are rumoured to have) done drugs. There is no need to have an attitude at me, I

[@goanyways]

OPIUM AND TEA BIOTCH!

[@goanyways]

feck aff i'm just playin around mate.

[@Flo81]

Meet me in Chinatown Rebecca de Libertine... ♡

[@purplestarlight3]

I think his music and poetry together is beautiful...but I think he's losing the substance.....the fame and drugs has just been wearing him away...it's keeping him in the headlights but the foundations that got him there in the first place are being forgotten......it seems to be a vicious circle for him too.

[@cazaleah2]

@chrisjoneschrisjones - dont say things like that about ya self, chin up am sure ya not that bad

[@thegoldendon]

dress me like a ladyboy ;)

[@cicicitron]

ahahahah

[@TheHeavyhorse]
