This song captures everything great about that time; romance, pain, hope and urgency….reminds me of many sticky dance floors and many more cans of red stripe.
Supposedly he wrote that line for Carl. Both have confessed to leaving "love notes" or what have you in their songs for one anther during their shipwrecked period.
This is by far the best performed version of this song here on TH-cam. I’ve listened to very many and It’s exactly like the version I purchased from ITunes, absolutely LOVE it and rate it an easy 10/10
@julioperezespinoza it's a play on words with the mountain in Africa and a giro meaning a pay cheque in the UK. kill-a-man-giro. "Kill a man for his giro today"
Forever. Seen them live 8 times and they are an incredible band. The Libs too, the Libs and the Strokes got me back into guitar bands when all that existed was Starsailor and Embrace!
I prefer the album version, but I’ve always liked bright vibrant guitar sounds. The achieved a unique tone on the album. The main difference on this single version is the guitars sound more generic.
This is SO much better than the album version! Why didn't they use this one instead. I love the midsection on this and the guitar work is totally different. Plus the delay on his vocals.
The album version is fucking garbage. In fact, the entire debut is pure garbage. By the time it came out, the Arctics were well on course to take over the world (or at least Britain, which in cultural terms is the world unless you play video games or like adam sandler)
@julioperezespinoza Significa Kill a man for this giro es decir mata a un hombre para esta gira solo que lo dicen tan rapido que pusieron asi ellos el titulo de la cancion jeje :)
+Aaron Jackson I was reading the replies on this and when people were like are you sure your not already pissed, I was just sat there thinking nar he's a Geordie haha
I lived with scrap yard my mum was shot by British troops me and one of my brother's made it to England with Irish nurses. My mum fought me and done all sorts to me.
It's the same chord progression during the chorus (of both songs). The vocal melody is pretty much the same too. Great songs in their own rights though :)
Man was stalked by media in his early days. He lost it with some media dude following him and the whole of UK press kinda turned against him.The main media guy that started was a dick look it up.This is pete pouring his heart out about it his song got me through alot
You talking about that nutcase dancing around to electric dreams in the documentary? late with this reply but an hour ago I put on this is for lovers, than I fell in a worm hole which has landed me here.
On the off chance that your listening To the radio I thought you might like to know you broke my heart Can only sadden up or hedge your bets Or take a chance and never get you again All my ties, time and time I keep on trying hard not to try too hard When I forgive, I won't forget To killing time, so I'm better now I don't need it... Anything that makes you, feel hate Can do without hate Now I believe in love best bit of music written ever! fact!
without the libertines the start of babyshambles would never exist n would probably never had happened so you shud owe your gratitude to the origins, long live all four libertines and the babyshambles members and also the two lads outa dirty pretty things too =D oh! n roger sargent for being an excellent photographer =p
this original was the start of my road through albion and all the up and downs of the likely lads.. n what a lovely if, dramatic tale of another band that rocked a generation =] as cheesy as that sounds, i stick by it
I had some good times fighting travellers in my 20's think my roma mother sent them to fight me. We used to have a beer sat opposite each other then carry on fighting. They kept me pissed so I didn't remember.
"On the off chance that you're listening
To the radio
I thought you might like to know you broke my heart" What a powerful but sad phrase.
This song captures everything great about that time; romance, pain, hope and urgency….reminds me of many sticky dance floors and many more cans of red stripe.
Red stripe 😅 The Caribbean beer. Good times
😂 red stripes
Missing u always dad rip, you showed me great music that I’ll pass along to my daughter
On the off chance that you're listenin, to the radio, I think you might like to know you broke my heart.
Dont tell me tiff f u c k e d with you too edit, mate, I'd piss myself
She broke my heart
musicman32 breaks my heart every-time.
Pure poetry

So much talent the Babyshambles! And Pete is a fucking genius! Thanks from France
A stomping victory of a song easily one of the best songs ever written and performed
I could NOT AGREE MORE!! - Bud!. Everything about this Song, Has Class Written All Over!!. 🤘🤠😎🤘
Nah
Pete thank you for being a positive influence in my life. God bless u always
@julioperezespinoza it's a play on words with the mountain in Africa and a giro meaning a pay cheque in the UK. kill-a-man-giro. "Kill a man for his giro today"
If you don't get how incredible this, and Peter are, you have no soul.
One of the greatest songs ever
2019, still banging this out....
Forever. Seen them live 8 times and they are an incredible band. The Libs too, the Libs and the Strokes got me back into guitar bands when all that existed was Starsailor and Embrace!

@@music_islife9173 2021 and having an existential crisis because this came out ~*14 years ago*~
Yes 2021 now 😭 I grew up listening to babyshambles, libertines, etc.. I was obsessed with the brits!
It’s tragic that music is prettty much Orchestrated by the man upstairs. I love this band and I’m glad to have been part of the era. Fuck forever
Babyshambles please come to Mexico!!! 🇲🇽
Creo que ya no tocan. Ahora pete está con the p*ta madres
Pete s back with The Libertines. They brought a new album out not long ago.
My favorite BabyShambles song, also Libs and Babyshambles are both amazing peices of work!
This is the single version, not the down in albion version. And YES: this version is far catchier and simply better than the album version ...
mvBarracuda, I could not agree more!!. - THIS VERSION Should have been put on the Down In Albion Album instead 🤘😁😜🤘
nerd
I prefer the album version, but I’ve always liked bright vibrant guitar sounds. The achieved a unique tone on the album. The main difference on this single version is the guitars sound more generic.
This is the tune that made me love the babyshambles what a tune. He proved after the libertines he could do anything 👍
this swaggers and sneers head and shoulders above the competition.
Soon as that drum beat kicked off, on to the dance floor!
this song save my life
carlos zelaya it made me kill a man for his giro
we need to talk i feel the same
Stefan Beal lol
C Kay you’re name isn’t Claire by chance ? Used to go st James high ?
Thats a boy lol@@Algorithm347
This is SO much better than the album version! Why didn't they use this one instead. I love the midsection on this and the guitar work is totally different. Plus the delay on his vocals.
the guitar play and a few of their rifts are so pixie like like at 1:51 - 2:06
R.Cook Patrick Walden is a beautiful man
Doing part of my GCSE art on this song.
I can’t put my finger on it but this version has so much more magic than the album version! It just rocks harder!
選曲が良すぎる、、、
listening it when you are drunk is amazing :DDD
:)
while sober, it's just as amazing
Srrdar Akbiyik yeaaah I'm drunk, and it's fucking amazing
Srrdar Akbiyik today xD
Its Zen
One of my favorite songs ever
Me too, man. Me too.
Me too x2
The amout of times my brother used to play this in his room at full volume when i was younger is ridiculous haha! These and Blink 182
english punk is better
christiantelecaster in what way? Can you suggest some?
kurtcobain wantsacracker check out the buzzcocks & the clash
martin gallagher i will
Good lad, that one.
Brings me back god we had fun
better than the album version
Much better
Without doubt
The album version is fucking garbage. In fact, the entire debut is pure garbage. By the time it came out, the Arctics were well on course to take over the world (or at least Britain, which in cultural terms is the world unless you play video games or like adam sandler)
@toomuchjunkiebizness 79 ye

Basically Doherty in the realms of infinity & a mind in the same realm, there’s no way at back. Pete. Stay alive lad!!
Never heard those before. A lot of those songs sound better in ways. Cheers for telling me about it!

PETE is the man!!!
We love you man!!!!
Killamangiro Toooooddaaayyyyy .. Ooo oOO
Un clásico de mi juventud, nunca faltaba en fiestas, salidas, borracheras
The best version
@julioperezespinoza Significa Kill a man for this giro es decir mata a un hombre para esta gira solo que lo dicen tan rapido que pusieron asi ellos el titulo de la cancion jeje :)
Classic nice post Rough Trade :-)
What guitar pedal should I use to create the sound in 2:54? Thanks everyone!x
isnt that just a normal distorted guitar? (playing very high notes)
pojk_tant So just a distortion pedal you think?
yeah i guess. dunno i dont think its anything fancy
Might be some kind of tremolo effect, I think.
Dave Kent Wouldn't it be easier with a harmonica?
2024 FOREVER!!!
GENIUS
An Absolutely Amazing Track!! - 1 - Off the Shambles best!! (IMO)!. @PeterDoherty You are a Genius & Albion LEGEND 🤘😎😁🤘
this was for at least for a year my phone ring- beggining of course
😃😀😃 I felt powerful while just listening to it
Comes everywhere wit me
Class
The first time I heard this song being from Scotland a thought it says killa man for his giro pmsl🏴
oasis is dad rock music.pete was on a totally different level.he will be remembered more in 50yrs.
Listening in 2020 in good old Germany 🤪
Down in Albion is brilliant but love this original version
Fucking smart makes is wanna get pissed and get the guitar out 👍
Makes is? Are you sure you're not already pissed? haha
A probably was half way there mate haha

Everyone should watch his Kirsty Wark interview, very interesting and intelligent man 👌🏻
😊😊😊😊😊SMILEY FACE SMILERS 😊😊😊😊😊
From the heart ❤ still hits the spot #epic
Peter's bitterness on full display here.
I lived with scrap yard my mum was shot by British troops me and one of my brother's made it to England with Irish nurses. My mum fought me and done all sorts to me.
Where can i watch "stalking pete doherty"?
its now on youtube
what it means "killamangiro"?
sorry im from Guatemala! (:
JulioAdelso a giro in the UK is social welfare
parts of it sound like the jams "down in a tube station at midnight"
It's the same chord progression during the chorus (of both songs). The vocal melody is pretty much the same too. Great songs in their own rights though :)
"they smelt of pubs, and wormwood scrubs and too many right wing beatings"
There's one part that sounds exactly like a very early The Stone Roses bit.
can you tell me what's giro :$ please!
it's your sexy ass
It's ecstasy
Caught in the act
Is it distance,
still
epic
still
2021 still banging!
Love this version
this is genius, straight thru to the harmonica outro. only 5.4K likes? criminally underrated.
Man was stalked by media in his early days. He lost it with some media dude following him and the whole of UK press kinda turned against him.The main media guy that started was a dick look it up.This is pete pouring his heart out about it his song got me through alot

On the off chance that your listening

Can only sadden up or hedge your bets

All my ties, time and time
I keep on trying hard not to try too hard
When I forgive, I won't forget
To killing time, so I'm better now
I don't need it...
Anything that makes you, feel hate
Can do without hate
Now I believe in love
best bit of music written ever! fact!
Reminds me of nights out with best mates in a old English pub, lotta love ❤
Drugs are bad Mr Garrison. Pete's Australian I go to Oz.
Well, you got Libertines' videos to talk about the libertines, and babyshambles' videos to talk about babyshambles, please.
Love it 🙆
0:54 OMG !! ♥♥
Pete doherty or Carl Barat? I truest happiness with Pete doherty everyday.
Grandad can you tell them I'm not fighting for 200 waffle scripts, stand by the table and claim them, the fighter gets led away.

This took the Libertines albums and kicked their asses
cool¡¡¡¡
@kolopo908 AGREED!!!!!! Long live BabyShambles!!!!!
this original was the start of my road through albion and all the up and downs of the likely lads.. n what a lovely if, dramatic tale of another band that rocked a generation =]
as cheesy as that sounds, i stick by it
Here for you mate. 2006 was a long time ago, move on.
I always imitate Pete when he says "wasn't very gay"
on the off chance...
I had some good times fighting travellers in my 20's think my roma mother sent them to fight me. We used to have a beer sat opposite each other then carry on fighting. They kept me pissed so I didn't remember.
Hard to remember now how exciting Pete was then.
2024 still listening 🎉🎉
Esto es lo ma grandiosi
My summer 2021 song. I'm bringing it back
もう、ほら、例えば笑えないジョークでさ、彼女が笑った夜とかさ、ロンドンの汚ったねー路地裏のアパートの部屋の片隅でさ、枕を濡らしてるわけ。んでさ、世界は動くじゃんか？目の前でみたものは１秒先の世界なんだね。隣はギルバートとジョージのゲイカップルが住んでたっけな。一回立ち話をしてな、職業は芸術家だっていってたけど顔色は悪かったっけ。いいもん食べたいよな？俺の夢？そんなのとっくに忘れたよね、へたくその詩でも書いてれば明日は買えるかもだけど・・・んな感じ？ このときはベイビードラムは女性だったよかったよー力ないドラミングがなんだかアンニュイで好きだ。彼女、ギャラでもめて辞めたって。お金は大事だよねーいつまでも一緒にいてくれよな でもお金より大切なものはロックンロール 日本のスパルタロカールズてバンドのドラム中山さんが脱退した時も悲しくってねとてもやりきれなくてそれ以降は聴いてないのよ ヒントってバンド、イイネ☆
赤羽夏樹 que?
1:29~1:38 👍
Ohh I believe in love....
Patricks guitar at 2:54 😍
ずっと愛してる
Home and away.
