The Libertines 100 greatest albums

[@michaelgraham9774]

Noel can't ever talk about another band without making it about himself.

[@Treguard]

"I always said, you know, there's noone on this planet who's bigger than that drug, that drug's always gonna be bigger than them. But, you know, I do believe I tried everything really to stop it taking hold, but...I don't know if for better or worse...it didn't work."

[@bevyk777]

Heartbreaking to watch. Carl trying to do what they thought they had to do to save Petes life. But on a happy note - we know they are in a better place and ready to give it another go. Here's hoping the bad times are behind them and they can move on to the magic that is the LIBERTINES! All four of the originals...no substitutes. Only they can create that original sound. I'm thinking they'll be better than ever!!! YEAH!!! Can't WAIT

[@Hannahmary87]

Soo sad! I just wanted to hug Carl, he was blatantly struggling not to cry! It's such a sad sad thing to see such a great friendship and creative partnerhip fall apart. I really really miss the libertines...

[@joewilson1989]

bless carl. hes fighting back the tears and you can tell so obviously

[@dillon3411]

Really do prefer Up The Bracket!

[@Treguard]

"I never said I split the Libertines up. I said...put it on ice is what I said, but, yeah I mean that's what I need to do, I don't believe in breaking up Libertines and I believe in keeping promises. You know, I'll always be a Libertine, I've got it written on my arm, so I haven't got much choice really. But no, I mean, that's just a reminder."

[@garythompson3130]

The Libertines and Noel both admit the Smiths were the best band since the Beatles and the most influential band for them

[@Treguard]

"Although I was always adverse to what heroin and crack do, I kind of turned a blind eye to it...well no, I didn't turn a blind eye to it, I tried to address it with him but I'm sure he convinced me that, you know, he was in his stride and it was...he was using it rather than it taking control of him."

[@tellit2urkingcharlie]

libertines ARE FUCKING AMAZING...

[@Jacobdp]

I will always be a libertine

[@Tozzommi]

I think in most of ours hearts they're as big as one band can ever get...

[@HaiImChelle]

this is quite emotional this video tho i agree with some of the comments ive read after rewatching this just.. u can see the hurt in carl. :( .. oh well we can hope. 10 yrs since up the bracket was released this yr..

[@itsashamblesbaby]

he's saying "i wrote it on my arm, so i haven't got much choice really"

[@kermitMCFC]

someone please give carl a hug!!!

[@RobCavanagh]

I saw these guys at Leeds fest, not 4 days ago, and it was the best experience of my life.

[@lMaximumlHeat]

I completly agree. They deserve so much more respect..

[@RWalsh770]

the way carl talks about him and pete teared me up a little

[@MissHysteriaPlease]

I think Noel's pretty okay. He's just telling the truth ;) and he only said positive things about The Libertines, so where's the matter? The Libertines ftw!! I love them so much and I won't ever stop

[@stoddyhmfc]

That's cos Carlos Loves Peter like a brother he always will, no drugs will ever change that. The Libertines will get back together now Peter is proving that he wants to stay clean and finish what him & Carlos started.

[@Treguard]

'Christian heart' and 'Catholicism'- WTF? Here's a transcription of what Carl *actually* says: "When you're recording an album about things which are so close to your heart, then there is an element of catharsism. I think we kind of sung the lyrics and didn't really...we both knew what they were about but I don't know if we really admitted that at the time."

[@NickDawes]

You can now vote for the absolute peoples choice top 100 albums of all time at 100greatestalbums(dotcom), I'm pretty sure it wont be the same as most of industry lists!

[@HaiImChelle]

siigh,,, ahh pete and carl will love each other no matter what forever .. i believe it was better for the friendship to 'put libs on ice' cos they would of ended up hating each other even more, even tho thats bad for us libs fans.. i still believe one day we will get something more from the libertines, and that day will be epic. for now we have to treasure what we did get, and any of their individual stuff till 'the time is right' as carl said in an interview recently......

[@10SebaManri6]

And they got together again

[@marvelite90]

Aww! Poor Carl! He looks like he needs a hug!

[@corkscrewfoley]

It broke my heart seeing Carl in that interview, it probably didn't help with Music When The Lights Go Out in the background. I do wish the best for them.

[@ciaracustard]

50! That should have been way higher up! Ah whenever I see Pete or Carl talking about when Pete was really fucked up it really makes me sad - everyone involved ended up getting hurt. Same thing happened in my own family when my sister's drug habit got out of control. Things are good now but there's so much stuff that will never be the same as it was before.

[@golfer5600]

Pete just said in an intereview the other day that they (He and Carl) are not on speaking terms at the moment.

[@StunningSteve]

@hornymiggles he's got a point though (even if it is arrogant and self fullfilling) but the dedication of fans for the libertines is the same as the dedication oasis fans have.

[@thesephers]

one ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them

[@bevyk777]

@skint0n0minted Hi! I guess all we can do is hope hope hope that doesn't happen.... for their sake and ours. Peter has so much more living and creating GREAT things to do yet! Hopefully, we'll get to see/hear lots more for years to come...

[@ScarletxCrimson]

Oof. Heartbreaking. To be honest, I prefer Up the Bracket to The Libertines. It would've probably led to happier interviews in this segment as well.

[@hornymiggles]

i love how when noel gallagher makes a point he has to compare it to oasis he always metions oasis

[@r3dfella]

and the strokes helped too!

[@kaulitz89jonas]

carl the mumbler, i can hardly understand him, but i love him :)

[@Live4Ever329]

I hope all you haters making anti Noel Gallagher comments (despite the fact that he likes the Libertines and compliments them) realise that Pete Doherty and Carl Barat are fans of Oasis.

[@Live4Ever329]

I love Oasis and the Libertines.

[@StunningSteve]

Noel loves the libertenes and was good friends with Carl. He is proud of how heavily oasis influenced them and gave his blessing of taking the torch as the voice of the kids. Yeah he's a bit arrogant about it but if you had such a huge influence on a band as good as the libertines wouldnt you feel pretty shit hot? I would.

[@noelgallagher1967]

i like the libertines alot there the only band to hav that divotion between the cown and the band since oasis

[@cipher.u.justice]

"... since Oasis" LOL Noel, way to toot your own horn hhaha

[@rayolacer]

fair enuff this album is on the countdown but why isnt is this it by the strokes in it?

[@dariocaporuscio8701]

It has some fantastic songs but for me up the bracket is a better album

[@rorycowieson5924]

what would you rather listen to.... a guitar with no singing, or singing with no guitar?

[@TheArcadianPrince]

yeah i agree but think how huge the libs would be if they never split?

[@TH110625]

Aretha is a true legend!

[@camillabeale]

It's really heartbreaking especially around 1.55, when Pete's sitting next to Carl and you can tell he's on crack :(

[@goodtogo2876]

lmao he could be simply drunk... it seems more like drunk actually

[@Richie1989A]

aha so what if noel mentions oasis, it was true what he said, the libs were the first band to really have that relationship with their audience since oasis came about. Noels a legend, Oasis were quite influential for Pete Doherty

[@philipaha]

thanks missmoss

[@Wisconsin222]

Where is the rest of this list, I would love to see how the list looks?

[@MrCsharpMajor]

one of my pet hates is when people call pete 'peter'!!

[@zeddyded]

lmao noel. never fails to cheer me up!

[@thesephers]

yeah ur right, since when did oasis break down the barrier between artist and fans anyway?!

[@Bruce1983]

if i remeber correctle ok computer by radiohead was voted best albulm. av gt that libertines albulm like its really good

[@scotsportspl]

love how aretha franklin is up higher haha

[@deadmandanny88]

up the bracket is so much better =/

[@VeiculoIongo]

i dont know how carlos can sing clearly and mumble so much when he speaks

[@BackRockDelta]

i feel really bad for carl in this interview, long live the libertines, by far better than the beatles

[@RobCavanagh]

@MrMUGS94 What's "bollarks"?

[@Woodeh06]

what documentary is this from? must watch it

[@zestroker1]

CARL IS ABOUT CRYING IN THE MOST OF THE INTERVIEW, IT'S HURTFUL, I MEAN HE WAS HIS BEST FRIEND EVER!!!, THAT YOU CAN'T DENY IT!

[@LewisAMck]

Carl's so sad in this video :( wish the libertines would re-form

[@chocomuffinsyc]

i can understand what noel and the other two ladies said, but i can only understand about 10% of what Carl said... :(

[@ibejeska]

catharsism, by which i think he meant catharsis

[@TheArcadianPrince]

Also how the fuck did Oasis have a relationship with the audience they used to play huge 100,000+ gigs with about 100 security gaurds between them and the audience, The Libs used to play to people in their living room!

[@JDead95]

Don't get me wrong I'm a huge fan of the second album. Songs like Can't Stand Me Now, Campaign of Hate, The Haha Wall and on and on are awesome. I love the second album ALMOST as much as the first but I they were way more focused on the first and you just can't top songs like the Good Old Days, Time for Heroes and Death on the Stairs. I definitely agree with you it's not about rocking out it IS about true, honest to self expression above all. Oh and I can't stand Metallica (metal period).

[@ikey76]

can't disagree w/ Imy47

[@TheQueerTrickyThing]

So sad!! So so Sad ='(

[@agustinvisoso7040]

alguien los podria suptitular en español

[@Hennersbass]

Poor carl. He's obviously still very torn up about it.

[@jimbond0007]

A wonderful poignat album. But i must say i do prefer Up The Bracket.

[@whyfollowthecrowd]

this is so sad to watch, long live the libertines!

[@famanda]

there is no 'asking pete to leave the band'. there is 'splitting the band up' there is. 'for better or for worse. it didn't work.' imagine having to say that about your best friend...

[@ufewl]

Well I think he is right about the name, can't say I have listened to them much either, so I won't comment on the shit bit.

[@hornymiggles]

i dont like these people who think they know it all. the videos of pete and carl tell the whole story

[@daveyvanaert]

Absolute class. But there is no fucking way Babyshambles are better than Dirty Pretty things. Albion has about 5 good tunes out of 16, whereas Waterloo to anywhere only has a couple of questionable tunes. Janie Jones is class though, good to see the boys back together. Hopefully pete is on the up.

[@AquariusRevolution]

Why??? Just why does anything good never last. Pete and Carl get back together damn it. The fans have had enough of this nonsense. Pete, it's finally time to wake up and realize that your friends and family and your fans are way more important then the drugs.

[@piwini]

WHYYYYY

[@hampusheh]

Yeah I agree that Oasis is better, but only because they've made more records. If Pete could've keept it together they would've been so much bigger. I mean look, Liam Gallagher is cool, but Pete and Carl is cooler.

[@fluffyemu]

he definitely seemed sad

[@themasterplan1213]

woo lord of the rings!

[@hampusheh]

How can you say oasis is better? Hell no, maybe Oasis is bigger and sounds more polished. But the lyrics, the melody and the vision that the Libertines stood for is something that Oasis never had and never will have.

[@kierancollins8221]

Sorry Aretha.

[@TheSaintstillidie]

They have the right to be a little arrogant and to be honest they are usually just telling the truth unlike other bands who are constantly all nicey nicey on camera they had a pair of bollocks about them, carl and pete massively looked up to oasis who were a band that defined an era selling over 22 million copies of the album whats the story morning glory let's face it noel gallagher is a genius, that's not to say the libertines aren't amazing because they are but the fact is they aren't oasis.

[@JDead95]

NOOO NO. I think that the Libertines self titled album was great but if you're gonna pick one then pick Up the Bracket. That album kicked way more ass.

[@TheArcadianPrince]

The Libertines are 100 times better than Oasis, you cant even compare them!

[@zarella]

great album carls talkin like pete is dead though lol

[@BURNINGHAMMER76]

they are good but 100 best albums?

[@surfguy87]

50?..behave! Esily in top 3. Fuck these "countdown" shows - bup bup budadeebup boooww

[@hotfiredude123]

all she's asking for is a little respect ok

[@oneilexpress]

wat the fuck libertines r a very influentual band

[@RobCavanagh]

@skint0n0minted And Oasis couldn't even sing that well.

[@iwannabeyourdog1969]

i fuckin' hate the lord of the rings i love the libertines and aretha, she's okay

[@BackRockDelta]

I know a hell of a lot about music, definetly enough to know that the beatles ar the most overrated bands in history, especially when true masters such as Robert Johnson, Chet Atkins and Chuck Berry nearly go unheard of. Not saying the Beatles were a bad band, there just not as good as everyone says, but I don't expect much from another mindless Beatles fan that thinks Sgt. Pepper was the best album ever and John,Paul,George and Ringo are just Godlike...

[@M1995C]

so sad

[@snipersnill]

Noel Gallaghers so up himself '..they're the only band that ever have managed to generate that devotion between band and audience since oasis' oasis made some good music but god noel is arrogant

[@kentudik]

robert johnson had lik 40 songs on acoustic u cant rate him to the beatles...... he is obviously a master,, anyway rubber soul/revolver are far superior to sgt peppers easily.......

[@JackHearts123]

up the bracket is better

[@polozient]

3:13 What the fuck?

[@lMaximumlHeat]

Wow, are you mad?

[@newaccountforfilms]

He's so big headed becuase every one keeps telling him he's great. Plus Coke doesnt help/

[@markovanwatson]

Up the Bracket is a better album. Suppose they picked this one as its more 'commercial'
