Nieuw nummer Pete Doherty: 'You Can’t Keep It From Me Forever'

24.01.2022

Pete Doherty heeft een nieuw nummer gelost van zijn toekomstige plaat 'The Fantasy Life Of Poetry & Crime', die hij samen heeft gemaakt met Franse muzikant Frédéric Lo.

'You Can’t Keep It From Me Forever' is de tweede single van hun toekomstig album, want eerder kwam de titeltrack al uit.

De track werd geïnspireerd door Pete's drugsvrij leven & hun liefde voor indie-muziek.

Doherty zegt: "It reminded me a little bit of early Morrissey or some of the early Suede stuff, with an old-school catchy guitar. I never get bored of singing this song. I’m really going to enjoy singing it live. There’s just something so uplifting about it.”

Hij ging verder: “I suppose it’s a not-even subconscious yearning for things. I’ve been clean since December 2019, so at the time of writing this I was really white-knuckling it with the drugs and feeling like would only be a matter of time before I went back to it. It hasn’t turned out to be that way, but there was that kind of kicking out at the new way of being clean and feeling like it was temporary. You can apply that to any kind of yearning, but to me it was specifically about that. Time passed, and I’ve managed to somehow keep on the straight and narrow, if it is indeed straight and narrow."

'The Fantasy Life Of Poetry & Crime' komt uit op 18 maart 2022, en kun je hier pre-orderen.
