Peter Doherty: "Addicted to Art" / A Portrait Interview about Drugs, Art and his new Life
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 พ.ย. 2023
- The ice bath really opens him up: Peter Doherty jumps into a big tub of ice cubes, three hours before his "Libertines" concert in Edinburgh, and answers me in a 33 minutes long interview very personal questions about his addiction to drugs, the influence of heroine on making art, his relationship to Kate Moss and Amy Winehouse and the change he went through, especially thanks to his wife Katia: She is the one who introduced him to the ice healing! Does he really want to stop using? Well, he seems not to be so sure about it... Anyway there's something more important to him: making art, poetry, music. Peter Doherty is a truely addicted artist. Listen yourself. This interview was made possible through the fantastic support by his manager Jay Stanley, his german art gallery janinebeangallery, his collector Christian Martinez-Schwabbauer and by ARD titel thesen temperamente who sent me for a report to Edinburgh in August 2022. Many thanks also to my editor Rayk Wieland and DoP André Böhm. This is the edit from my own two cameras and presents the full interview with some vibrant shots not only from the "Libertines" concert and the opening of his Berlin art show but - also - of the ice bath.
Who would have thought we would ever watch Pete Doherty doing ice baths and drinking green smoothies..Anyway, well done Pete staying clean!👏🌟
I'll think you'll find those 'smoothies' contain gin and vodka.
Being a alcohic is not clean...he admitted himself hes very sick....
@@missredumbrella Well, if You're an alcoholic and do not drink, you are clean. If you did drugs, but aren't anymore, you are also clean. Or are you that judgemental an alcoholic/drugaddict can never be clean? It's a disease like any other and of course "he's very sick", you usually will be after years of drugging/drinking, your organs take a toll.
@@missredumbrella Well, if you are an alcoholic and stopped drinking, you are clean, just as if you used to do drugs and stopped, you are also clean. Or are you that judgemental saying an alcoholic/drugaddict cannot be clean? It's a disease like any other and of course "he's very sick", you usually will be after years of drinking/drugging, the organs take a toll.
@@anniezion but he hasn't stopped drinking. Watch the Louis Theroux interview.
My wife in to it ... thing like .. drinking water ( whilst shaking his head ) 😂🤣😂🤣
hahahhahha i can feel you (con in mano una boccia di dab cruda :))
So glad Pete made it out alive. I'm American and love the Libertines & Babyshambles. Wish I could see them live but just knowing Pete's ok and putting out music is good enough. Ride On man!
God yes! Would love to see him in the states. Better yet, would love to see him in the UK. I kinda think he's too good for the US.
Yeah he quit the drugs 🎉 but now faces the exact same risk from obesity 💔
@@cease2xist653 Yes, he's gotten so big.
I’m from south Western Australia and Peter is so amazing writer and singer , wish him all the best 🖤🎼
Nobody makes it out alive
What a beautiful honest man. I can feel his soul when he speaks. One of life's greatest. I'd love to meet him one day and just give him a wink of acknowledgement, that's all he'd need to know the impact he has had on the world. ❤
Lol. Your comment made me smile cause that's exactly how I envision meeting Pete. Truth is Id be falling at his feet. A total shit show of embarrassment
I am so happy this came across my page. I always really liked him and he reminds me of a few friends of mine who were heavily into drugs. His poetry and the way he carries himself make me think he is from an older more romantic, more beautiful, and sensitive time.
It's wonderful to see you Peter, always expressing with that same gentle eloquence, curiosity, and kindness toward the human spirit and its foibles. Much love. I hope you do write your book one day.
Shows that even darkest parts of the illness of addiction there is light and you can recover.
mate, he's still a drunk and a binge eater.
@@nedscheebly731he's on bupernorphine that's monthly buvidal
WHY oh WHY are we still talking about drugs when interviewing this absolute legend of a man? I'm tired and I think we're all tired of hearing these sort of questions being addressed to him..
Was really pleased to see him turn those addiction questions back on the interviewer. Object lesson.
People are so fekkin sanctimonious
Max, my beloved friend + a roadie for Nick Cave, died of a heroine overdose. He had a $5 note which once belonged to Johnny Thunders which he always said he would give to me, but the band he lived with sold it for smack after Max died. Typical!
It’s lovely to see how Katia seems to be Pete’s Laurie Anderson 💖 My Mum will always be a fan of what a nice gent Pete is, after having breakfast next to him in the Hoxton hotel years ago!
love from Margs + Blessings to Amy’s Spirit 🪷🙏🏻✨🕯️
Do u think johnny thunders got spiked with lsd by them lads who he had a smoke with in New Orleans maybe that made him want to come down by drinking all his methadone
Nurse!
Up the bracket is one of the hardest rock albums, this dude is a national treasure
Vertigo and horror show so fkn good
I have always loved peter.....even though he is younger and represented a different generation, i have always understood him.....and not just because i am a heroin/cocaine(crack) addict, although that particular insight is what it is......i have always "got" him.....and i love it that he is cleaner now.......and is a proper father /husband/artist......big love and respect to you peter. From Bristol uk.....love eternal people....
Regarding the poetry… I was suicidal and planning to end my life a couple / few years ago and then I got to the stage where around a 1 year back I was sat up late at night, pen and paper, trying to find the words for my goodbye letters to my mother and my family members etc and I struggled to find the words, so after a few evenings I just wrote a poem about my depression and drug addiction which has been haphazardly going on for 20+ years now and then straight after writing it down onto the scrap piece of paper, I felt lighter, as if I’d unloaded some negativity and I felt a little bit better, so I repeated it the next night, and write 2 or 3 poems the evening after that again, and I kept it up, I wrote whenever it came up, and after a month or two my depression had lifted so much more that I was writing with much more hope and positivity and I was starting to write about nature, and the odd funny off the cuff story type riddle poems about silly made up event’s etc and now I have a bunch of papers and folds of sheets , empty envelopes with them scrolled on the backs of, and paper scraps folded up, and about 50 + poems that I’ve written down, some written in a quick 3 minutes with no effort, others longer and perfected over a few days .
And I have not felt suicidal since , for a year, maybe a little more.
Big ups Pete, I’m happy to see you and to where you’ve got yourself to in life now, I have 21 years since I first tried heroin and have been in and off ever since, but no daily habit for around 3 years, but I’m back to dabbling on paydays with heroin and cocaine, maybe it’s my fazing it out period in my life ? Maybe, possibly, hopefully.. we’ll see, I’m 39 now so I’ve made it quite far already so it’s probably a good idea to hang it up now.
But yes I digress again, well done Pete, your a 1 in a billion in my opinion, and I wish you and your family all the luck and best wishes in the world for the future. ☮️💜☮️🙏
I’ve found great relief in writing haikus this year! Take care Twinkle ✨
Good to read this uplifting post. Mind yourself and keep moving forward. Your writing sounds really good.
@@NeverBelieveALie
Thank you, and best wishes to you, thanks for your reply. ☮️💜☮️
@@alwaysknow3356
I’m certainly trying, and I’m 100% making progress, and achieving more through opening my mind via writing, than anything else pharmaceutical that my Dr has given me.
I know I still have the drug dabbling, but without being complacent, I have kept it to paydays only for a few years now, and it’s been just enough to tame the beast without getting a new habit, and I feel I can and have got things to live for and move forward with in my life.
I’ve just in the last few months gotten myself out of a 14 year relationship that for pretty much the last half of became abusive and controlling and had fully isolated me from my friends and from my hobby too, so I’m feeling stronger and healthier every day now I’m finally out of that, and I’ll be 40 in a few months so a new chapter is coming in my life, I never thought I’d make it this far, not to sound dismal or like look at poor me type of thing, I meant even from the perspective of the drug abuse, there’s not a lot of 40 year old ex speedball’ers around, you know, 21 years of off and on injecting heroin and coke and crack is a long time, I know that just from the amount of funerals I’ve been to in my own town, even people I went to school with as well, and ex’s , friends and associates, it’s all very sad really, and robbing our own families of “ peace of mind “ for years.
Thank you for your reply, I appreciate that you can see a spark in me from just my comment. ✨☮️💯🤘
this is beautiful. May I say... that you are a writer. This is what happens when writers don't write - they get depressed. So for years your soul was searching for that missing piece and when you finally gave it to your soul - the act of writing - you found relief. Keep writing my friend. It's everything..
Watching what this man went through, magnified by the disgusting bloodthirsty english press, for years on end, he never ever seemed a bad man.
Rather contrary, he seems very nice and in the moment, and on top of that he is a very decent songwriter and poet as well. But the coherence is very becoming.
I think we are all rooting for you, Pete. Well done! :))
He put his self thru it mate .
@@paulleighton7078He put himself through the bloodthirsty English press?
Fuckin amazing interview. As a recovering addict myself and a musician(electronic) and I totally agree with Pete about creativity the soundproofing and the differences of creativity sober or not. And the whole interview
Pete Doherty god bless you every single day of your life , I know you probly will never see this but you are an amazing human being and you are loved so very much , in life we all get hurdles to get over I'm so proud of you , one day at a time ❤
God bless Mark Blanco !
I'm glad he's come out alive. Honestly thought he wouldn't 😢 intelligent guy seems nice. Drugs got ahold of the best of them
You can tell he's a real genuine guy
Bring a bottle and a bit of what you fancy. How can you not love this man? God Bless Pete Doherty!
"Drinking water...Things like that" *shakes head in disapproval*
Hahah awesome.
Drinking water? Fish make love in it! lol
Thanks Peter for all the amazing music. Keep it coming.
Best description of tabloids and their readers.....spot on Pete .
I cant believe they still asking him about Kate Moss
And President Putin....
sigh.
I'd forgotten she existed tbh
This is a much better interview than the one with Louis Theroux, which is not to criticise that, Pete is just in a better mood here, open, relaxed and talkative.
true but it's so clear the poor bugga is struggling with sobriety...
louis kept bringing up all the old topics and poking and prodding to get a response didn’t like it
A better interview? This is a prepared Pete. Louis caught him in his realness and had him crying and opening about things nobody has before, especially the death of that guy. This interview doesn't come close.
The weight and clean hands really suits him, he's right, when you're using you feel you're in a soundproof bubble and no-one can see what you're doing. Crazy
I stood shoulder to shoulder w/Pete on the coast - both now clean - but I remem the 6 days up phantasmagoria, including a time I 'borrowed' my sister's car on Xmas Eve to drive to Cov to pick a van up 4. Petey (3am start time), that in the man's words 'ere: "the odds of it (aforementioned insane journey) going wrong were strong!" 🤓 Managed to make and put out records, stillalive, still lucid. ..x Made up 4 him and the family, AND Carlos and the boys. Exciting times in the tale of the wayfairing troubadour to come... God bless ❤
I'm so glad Pete survived, awesome job getting clean! 🙌
true.... why speak about self-destruction habits when life is forward, clean!!! And he is explaining that the media is awful on that for artists.
As Layne said “My bad habits aren't my title. My strengths and my talent are my title.” Beautiful soul, Doherty🙏. THANK YOU.
So happy for him
Love you Pete! I'm an American and have travelled to London 3 times to see him live. I'm very dedicated!
I’m American too and it’s so sad that his great music never really got played here in the States and most people don’t know about him and the bands because he never got to tour here.
Bestest news I've heard in years.🎉🎉🎉🎉
Never thought I'd spend the time listening to him as I fell into the trap that he in some way led Kate and Amy to the drugs.... I actually really enjoyed listening to him and he talked a lot of sense. Good on you Pete stay strong I have a New founded respect for you. Go for it fella. Love the art too.
More like the other way around...
That whole London scene went balls-out with substances. Glad to see these dudes survived.
Pete turning into an arty Paul Merton. Congrats on your new life and continues good luck with your sobriety.
So beyond happy god spared this man’s life.
As a Chinese people I stand with Pete😂 his lyrics and poetry are amazing. just go ask Carl how popular he and Carl and The Libertines are among Chinese indie fans, they are my teenhood heroes.
❤
Nice to hear he‘s clean. May he stay so today and keep on 🌳
He ain't clean,he's on buvidal that's bupernorphine
@@JasonBrown-dd7dj Ah, yes, OK, thx for the info. Hope he‘s fine.
He's functioning... he ain't clean.
@@greatestytcommentator OK, i see
being a ex heroin addict for 12 years i can tell you most of my friends who turned to alcohol after heroin this is when they start to drop off.....@@greatestytcommentator
Nice to watch and listen, thx.
He's so talented
Großartig! Merci!
The horror of addiction is it affects a lot of artists, it feels like having leprosy,tell noone and do better. I've always felt having to control my emotions to non existence was something I had to hide. Thank god it's never been heavy heavy drugs though I have been exposed, it terrified and I found it filled me with self disgust. Not a Pete philosophy though we need people like him to articulate this human condition,been with society forever...
❤ Pete he stayed true to himself all the way ❤
Good on ya Pete.
Addicted to the fast food
Pete was very honest and sincere, well done
I love his honestly. There’s no lying to people about drugs, you lie to yourself only. Glad you’re doing well Pete.
Try to quit processed sugar and you will learn about “addiction.” Peter is a legend and what he’s done took an enormous amount of will.
People do it every day bro ,
@@Crosshatch1212 ppl do what?
@@getwhatyougivecocaine
One of the biggest parts of recovery is dealing with the guilt. Guilt will cripple you and all you end up doing is creating a guilt prison for yourself. If your loved ones and friends forgive you or they don’t, you have to just move on and try flip the guilt into responsibility.
We clearly don't live on the surface of a rotating oblate spheroid mostly covered in water hurtling through an infinite vacuum on an aimless Godless journey to nowhere.
Honest Pete Doherty...... good luck to him !
Strange days for sure and God's definitely watching...... and waiting.
PEACE.
❤🙏
The people who been through some sort of therapy to come out the other side are the true people of success for me.
The way he looks now he could play Hagrid and I don't mean this as an insult.
Genius
Addiction is a disease, and I appreciate Peter Doherty talking about being vulnerable. I think semantics can reduce stigma around relapse.
"Aids" is a disease. Addiction is disease like. Addiction is self-induced.
It's not a disease! More of a lost connection to yourself. That's the start of many addictions. Part of recovery is finding the connection to yourself again.
I know what he’s talking about with chemical dependency becoming intertwined in an artists belief to create. Then, he or she looks up one day, and there is no creating going on; just real drug addict hell.
God bless you pete stay strong
When I see him I start to think about Amy.
Why isn’t she here with us anymore
😢
Good interview from Pete! He seems to be struggling with his addiction again very mixed emotions talking about drugs with him saying he’s getting excited then getting on the defensive he will ALWAYS be in recovery simple as that!
1st step
Amazing honesty
I genuinely wonder if Peter has adhd. His mind is always working, he's passionate when he focuses and has varied interests. Drugs may have been a way to wall out overstimulation. Hes clearly very intelligent but made some very unwise choices. Its great he got through. Ive seen the libertines and Babyshambles and loved them for years.
What a dude. Always loved Pete from the start. Pleased he’s clean and healthier now.
This man is a POET!....
If only he N/KNOWS!!!
Well done Pete 👏 lad from Greenock.
I think you will always be in recovery when a full on addict mate 5 years straight through no brew me mate and still early days but just keep busy..and never forget wat got you there
Talent
Libertines are back 😮 only hearing. Seen them the last time they played in Dublin. I thought it would be the first and last time I'd ever see them, but maybe not 😁
They have a new album this year.🙂The new singles are amazing. I saw them in 2014 in Berlin and thought it was my only time but luckily have seen them many times since then and they are getting just tighter and are a joy to see live 🎶
@@TheBobby2607 glad to hear it. I'll definitely try and get a ticket so.
I grew up with my whole family being on heroin. It was very boring for me at times. Their all clean and happy. Everyone else is dead.i wouldn't change anything I. My past. Its good for you, pain.❤jojo❤
Why boring
Waiting for them to wake up was boring.
@@joanne4692 oh that so so sad. How awful. Did you never get involved with drugs?
No, it was a great life, just very colourful. Haha . I wouldn't change a thing.so happy for Pete. Blessings 🙌 🙌 🙌
@@joanne4692 Peter isn't well. He looks OK here but the guy has just swapped heroin for booze and it's killing him. I hope one day he gets properly clean.
So he did get the opportunity to talk about something interesting, and came up with those questions?.. was he instructed?.. anyway.. thx Pete, you tried, i really liked listening to you, that was awesome... 👍🏼👍🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼☺️🙂
Nice views here. Good for Peter he was not a good thief!
I love watching people chase their straws
Great interview, he’s very humble and approachable to answer so many obvious questions about creativity and drugs. I assume it’s not pleasant to go back to some of those memories.
Salutations to Pete for making the effort.. it isn’t easy
love you pete
THIS GUY IS A HUGE INFLUENCE IN OUR BAND
Love pete 😊
The Shaman analogy at the end. Off the top of his head. Remarkable man.
Yeah that was beautiful
Celebrity junkies have it so much eadier
What a good interview with him. Glad he's off heroin and crack, but I can tell he's teetering on the edge. He has a Buvidal injection, but I'm sure he's still struggling.
Stunning interview!!
Interview!?
I think at this point, Pete can answer or deflect the corny and cheap questions without needing to be asked.
He was just in a gregarious mood... he spoke more to his guy off camera than to the stiff "interviewer"
Take a shot everytime Peter says "you know what I mean?"
Whenever he says that, I think to myself “yes, Peter, I do know what you mean.”
@@Alicedoesart I honestly think it's a manipulative tactic to make the other person subconsciously agree with whatever you say. You know what I mean?
Shot of Heroin?
daaaamn.,.
But clearly, the old man did NOT know what he meant.
@mcawesome4150 That was not the case here though.
The man was being obtuse and trying to steer Pete...
The sound 😵 my eardrums
Pete is so underrated he is awesome and I can’t believe nobody gives a shit about him in America and they should because he is a brilliant writer. He loves Yeat’s. He’s amazing.
He is not underrated.. possibly, he is over credited.
Peter look`s very healthy even if he is very over weighted! Good to see that he is clean!
Keep going Pete your doing so well 👌
Such a nice Dude! Wow!!
Its unprocessed trauma...addiction is never the persons fault. The behavior is a biproduct but not the reason.
As an addict i can say it might not be our fault but it is our responsibility to not push our trauma onto others, with all the antisocial behavior that usually comes with addiction. Otherwise how are we any different from the people who traumatized us?
I don't think anyone blames an addict for the addiction.
It's what you do with your addiction that is your responsibility.
Is resisting addiction a byproduct of addiction?
You make it sound like addicts have zero control over their own decisions.
If what you said was peddled by the dept of Health, the drugs deaths would increase tenfold.
Fuck yeah, dude! 🙌👏👏👏 Welcome to the other side! Way better. ❤
He said...
"My wife is into healing...u know things like drinking water" 😮
She makes u drink water! If u divorce her u just might die!!!
Hes done the damage to himself and others cant take that back !
Compare this Pete to the Pete of the early 2000’s.
He’s become the person he should’ve always been. ✅
I scrolled past this video thinking it was Daniel Johnston in an ice bath.
Dont think the interviewer understood pete. Boring questions
What your saying would be amazing, in a Fred AgIn choon.😮😮😮
The words 'grifter' and 'shill' come to mind.
why they keep bringing the drug topic? The man is an amazing artist I could only wish they ask him something more important than his past.
I NEEDED THIS ❤
I like Pete. ❤
So funny man ❤
thin and cute or fat and ugly i still love this man. a true artist.
Pete is starting to look like Daniel Johnston. Let’s hope he can keep his shit together this time…good luck to him.
❤
