Baby Shambles (possibly an allusion to Jonathan Swift's
satiric essay, A Modest Proposal) refers to a set of
recordings by United Kingdom rock and roll band, The
Libertines, and to a separate band formed by singer and
guitarist, Pete Doherty.
* The Babyshambles Sessions is a set of songs recorded
by The Libertines while in New York. The singer and
guitarist Carl Barat left before completion of the tapes,
which were intended for the second album. Bassist John
Hassall also lent a hand, playing the bassline on one song,
The Man Who Would Be King. It is thought that Barat played
drums on some tracks. Doherty then gave the tapes to a fan
who, at his request (a fact he later denied), made the
tracks available to the band's hardcore fans over the
internet. A 3-CD More...
Review about Babyshambles Very honest. | Reviewer: Human Resourses
------ About the song Fuck Forever performed by Babyshambles
I think this is one of the best lyric that ever made in past these years.This is an enlightment and meaningful for people who just follow styles already made by someone or who want to represent new values to the world.That's actually difficult job to be really original and hit the world and get paid well.Babyshambles and Pete rule and they have thier own style for sure but I like the way that they are very honest and this lyric is written in very nice way.I feel it doesn't contain so much negative feelings, not like a teenage pessimistic crap and not like a ghostly hype musician who just make the shit stinks good.Personally, I love Music which people can enjoy dancing at club and help to make people happy and feel connected or share some good vibes but for music with lyric,the song says about universal issue as long as our society encourages rule of capitalism.That's why this song is impressive.

Whilst pete has some undeniable talent, all you little pussies who go on about how he's such a genius and how clever he is, one question.
If he's so fucking clever why does he spend half his time high as a f***ing kite, and the other half faining an interest in music in order to get money to go get high.
I'm a fan, but of the early stuff and it makes me sad to see this man piss away the talent he has, but as for genius; Einstein was a genius, Shakespeare was a genius. Doherty, not so much.

------ About the song Fuck Forever performed by Babyshambles
...because I work 12 hours a day, hard labor and some days this song is about all that makes sense after 25+ years of this bondage -- to my shattered brain. Drugs ain't the only thing that can fuck with yr head.

------ About the song Beg Steal And Borrow performed by Babyshambles
I think this song and many of his other songs are just beyond everything else there is. Melodies and lyrics he can create are just brilliant and he has his own way of just performing from his heart.
And about drugs...well the only reason why I really hope he wouldn't do them anymore is that they'll kill you or turn your brains to porridge and I'd imagine it quite hard to be creative or talented in that situation.

------ About the song Back From The Dead performed by Babyshambles
empathy merely means understanding the feelings of another, you can perfectly well feel empathy for someone without being in the same situation. (for instance, anyone can feel empathy for both israeli's and palestinians for the conflict and danger they're in)

------ About the song Fuck Forever performed by Babyshambles
this is a song that just stucks in your head!!!even just the melody makes you some kinda happy and the lyrics - if you interprete them - make you think about this whole theme in another way!!and even pete here reminds me of the young kurt cobain!!it's a mixture of some kinda i-am-addicted-to-drugs-feeling and the i-suck-out-all-the-marrow-of-life-feeling... just makes you feel better.... love it, totally love it

I just really like that this song infers that people expect everything in their life to be like a fairytale, and it never ends up that way...well it sort of does. and of course who could not love the fuck forever bit...plain and simple and unembellished. love it.
no, he's not a genius, but who cares? if you like the music then does it really matter what he's on and who he's with etc etc? it shouldn't.

------ About the song Fuck Forever performed by Babyshambles
as much as i love babyshambles, this is nowhere near the best british song ever. look at blur, joy division, THE BEATLES, the smiths, new order.. i can go on. as much as i enjoy this song, you're all going over the top.
This is an amazing song (one of their best in my opinion), the lyrics are brilliant in it's sadness. Pete writes poetry with melody.
To Lucas: I honestly can't see the point with your comment. Yea sure, the only one who can truly understand Pete is Pete himself but that doesn't meen you can't sympathise with him! Being able to feel empathic emotions is what makes you human rather than something portentously.
If you like Babyshambles why act uppish against someone like-minded just because of one word? That seems idiotic and portentously to me.

------ About artist/band Babyshambles
pete doherty, be it he does infact take drugs makes an ass of himself and basically has had next to no good press in ages is a LYRICAL GENIOUS!!!!!!!
This must be one o the most inspiring bands today fro younger people and what he does with his life infact has NOTHING to do with his music- so what if he takes drugs?? sorry but not like he the only one- people have issues cos he is open about it and yes he has failed at rehab several times hes only human.
i would hardly say he is wasting his life away- maybe his body but not his life.
at the end of the day- teh talent of the Babyshambles is overlooked at the sheer fact drugs are involved- get a grip- how many o u judges dont do drugs??? may not be hard drus but hey- same diff yes???
EXCELLENT BAND- even ma mum likes thum lol

------ About the song Fuck Forever performed by Babyshambles
I personally don't know how anyone could call this man's music "great"..to me, he is close to the worst artists i know. He's wasting his life away and then when he sings it sounds like a bunch of slurred lyrics with a decent guitar tune to keep up the beat, but when you actually get to hearing and understanding his lyrics..they don't mean much at all...some songs that are random are good (like cannonball) but this guy is just throwing words together cause they rhyme..if it SOUNDED good that would be one thing, but it sounds, as i said, like he just sniffed a wad of crack ..however this is simply my opinion, i know other people like him i just don't really know how you could..
I love this song | Reviewer: paulie
------ About the song Wolfman performed by Babyshambles
I love Babyshambles, and Pete very much, and I think Peter Wolfe (aka Wolfman)is extraordinary too. He an't as much of a genious as Pete, or course, but he's great. And I think that if he could turn his thoughts into lyrics more often he would be very famous...
