The Libertines - You're My Waterloo

[@platon4170]

This song was always played by my great love, with whom I was fortunate to spend 8 years. After now a one-year separation, during which I walked down dark paths of human emotions, I heard it again for the first time a few days ago. Upon the first hearing, the pain returned, and I shed bitter tears. Today, I listen to it again, and it brings me comfort. My compassion goes out to all those who carry suffering within themselves. Thank you, Libertines, and thank you to all people with tender feelings.

[@charlenewhittaker1674]

I hope you find a new great love! You never know what's around the corner! Whoever it is they will be lucky to have you... you sound like a keeper to me!!

[@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.

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]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/nF7IaImNq9mpiLM it is actually a bit older

[@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.

[@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.

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

[@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
