The Libertines make me so happy

[@flossssssy]

Is that Freddie Highmore?!

[@catjam9]

+flossssssy it looks very like him

[@ddust102]

[@kenniadon5725]

+flossssssy They make everybody happy! =D

[@jocelyne6692]

I'm here because the Libertines are musical geniuses and they are so terribly underrated. This is music!

[@adamsmith307]

Love 'em - but genius's they ain't.

[@hiroprotagonitis]

not underrated

[@rorybaker6586]

Treyana wow ur a pretentious twat- articulacy does not equal intelligence.

[@rorybaker6586]

Treyana in all fairness. That hit hard. Don’t know why I felt the need to attack, just in a poor mood. The world definitely does not lack animosity, and I don’t want to fuel that any more, so my apologies. Love Rory xxx

[@PriHL]

@@trayc2762 This is extremely xenophobic. This is why you will have a hard brexit. And if I told you I'm not British but know, feel and understand everything you have written, know the whole background and know perfectly how this society functions, what would you say? Would you dismiss it all because I am not British, but if I were British, you'd say: aaah, ok, that changes everything? This is why, after knowing the nature of the British society, with all the good and bad things, I choose not to identify with it as I cannot identify with a covertly hostile, xenophobic and hypocritical attitude which is so widespread. The Libertines, the band and people, especially Carl, who is a very open and kind person, are one of the rare reasons I will have minimal contact with this sick society. They sing about a mythical Britain but it's exactly that: mythical and idealistic, but in no way does it represent the real society. Unfortunately.

[@Soura09]

Here for Pete Doherty. This music is enchanting.

[@arsmale1]

My Brother was a big Libertines fan. We laid him to rest and used this very poignant music. I've connected with this song in a way I never thought possible.

[@debaserdeducer4555]

My deepest condolences

[@martinjames6431]

It is my wife and mines song. We are huge fans, been to all the gigs. She was diagnosed terminal in January. I tried to learn it but I am shaking non stop

[@oliviathorne9105]

This song is a love letter to London. The Libertines sound like London.

[@miguelrojas6962]

You'll never fumigate the demons No matter how much you smoke So just say you love me For three good reasons And I'll throw you the rope You don't need it Because you are the survivor Of more than one life And you're the only lover I had Who ever slept with a knife But you're not Judy Garland Oh just like me you've never really had a home of your own But I'm not Tony Hancock baby Until the dawn We'll stone the crows We'll stone the crows And you see I've brought you flowers All collected from the Old Vic Stage Well I've been sitting here for hours, baby Just chasing these words Across the page Cause you're my Waterloo Well I'll be your Gypsy Lane I'm so glad we know just what to do And exactly who's to blame And you're my Waterloo I'll be your Stanley Park Well I'm so glad we know just what to do And no one's left Stumbling around Fumbling around Tumbling around In the dark Always in the dark You're my Waterloo I'll be your Calvary Well I'm so glad we know just what to do And everyone's gonna be happy Everyone's gonna be happy Everyone's gonna be happy But of course

When I first heard this song I was sure it was a very famous old song a lot of people knew about, but it appears it isn't. Really surprising, because it's definitely amazing

[@dariocaporuscio8701]

[@akiratokyodesu6266]

Freddie's fashion of running is so recognizable.

[@itslaurenze]

I came out to have a good time and I'm honestly feeling so attacked right now. Freddie gives me all of the feelings.

GREAT AND UNEXPECTED NEWS: THE VIDEO IS ACTUALLY BEAUTIFUL AND A PROFOUND TRIBUTE TO PETE AND CARL'S RELATIONSHIP

[@JLSXXX]

libertines makes life so much better happy.your never get old with the libertines.iv always loved em from day one.

[@matthemod]

This whole album has made me feel my age, that I was in love with the libertines first time around as a 16 year old teenager. I would rock out to their hard hitting indie rock anthems, and when they broke up I was heartbroken. Now they're that much older, as am I, and I feel more as in tune with them as I've ever been.

[@VP-tg8kd]

Absolutely brilliant song

[@natashabogutzki233]

This is my favourite song. every time someone asked me what my favorite song is and I say you're my Waterloo from The Libertines they have no idea what I'm talking about.

[@karlaestrella5463]

I sincerely wish I could like this video more than once. This is one of the best songs i've ever heard.

[@lavsmate]

A defining modern masterpiece... The libertines are a piece of this country's musical history.....

[@gillyweatherstone4049]

Not only did Pete Doherty continue to live to prove the naysayers, the people who were literally betting on his death, wrong. He continued to live and produce art at this level

[@TheRuralpoet]

Doherty is a sublime genius...

[@mccumiskey87]

Well said I'm with you there. I seen a few wankers saying when aym Winehouse died ' ah well pete Doherty won't be to far behind her'.. Some right bastards out there. Love Pete Doherty proper musician & song writer.. I hope he stays in good health & gives us more Gems like this tune. Stay blessed.

[@martinjames6431]

@@mccumiskey87 But he is an embarrassment now! I worshipped him, followed him everywhere. Saw Shambles, Libs, and solo multiple times, been to his house and been with him at court. But La Puta Madres?!?!? Is he a kid looking up swearwords in a dictionary? How babyish! And the songs are terrible. Then the touring with no album. Plus the Margate thing, awful idea. Now the cheering "Zelensky" in the crowd. HE is a joke now

[@KristenMonson]

I'll never forget hearing this for the first time looking out the window at a coffee shop in Edinburgh. What a sad day.

[@marsimus13]

Kristen hope you’re better now than you were on that sad day!

[@mattthomas2078]

Not sure about the casting, they don't look anything like Pete and Carl!

[@deadboys3037]

They act like them tho

[@Jokaanan]

+Matt Thomas Also, Freddie Highmore is tall and has a babyface like Pete; the girl is short and has pale skin and longer, jet black hair like Carl.

[@TheAkwarium]

I think the kids are actually representing Pete and Carl, and the video portrays actual scenes from their lives. When they’re on the rooftop? She’s dancing, he’s watching. She gets sad. She jumps off the roof. Then he goes and sees that she’s okay, that’s a representation of this moment: “1997 I remember sitting on top of a tower block in bow and Carl had that look in his eye he seized me screaming we should throw ourselves off together” The girl represents Carl’s younger self - raven haired, musical, adventurous, and severely depressed (she runs in front of a van too). The way he films her is so loving, also: in a lot of Pete’s works, he refers to a ‘girl’ who’s really obviously Carl. I think it’s just this symbol he attached to Carl from the jump that Carl accepted

[@mykiehighmore4218]

Jokanaan Freddie isn't tall...

[@stuartlee8519]

There not surposed to.

What's wrong with your favourite band being popular? You don't want loads of people to enjoy their music and for them to have loads of success? I hate fans like you tbh

[@NoLifeGamingNLG]

most people prefer there band not to go mainstream because most of the time it ruins them,when there mainstream they switch from writing songs that captured there essence to churning out factory made hits which dosnt always work,pete is an vastly under rated artist.

he is the most talented musician and poet in spite of his horrible struggles. His music has brought me so much joy. And hope the another addict has accomplished so much and come through it

[@paulfenton8276]

Saw Peter and the Puta Madres last night in Belfast. After a rather elongated and astonishingly beautiful encore rendition of 'Paradise is Under Your Nose', which exceeded their allotted time by a good quarter of an hour, Katia took it upon herself to launch into this...the sight of Peter, Jack et al still playing their instruments some five minutes (+) after they had been unplugged will stay with me for some time. Bravo.
