Anticipating Grace/Wastelands

If there's one person in this world that I am eternally in love with besides my lovely boyfriend, even though in a very different way - obviously - is Peter Doherty. I've been in love with his poetry since the "Good Old Days", although I wasn't that crazy for the Libertines then as I am for Peter's more personal music now. Plenty of people will disagree because of the glory Doherty/Barat-days, but for me, Peter's own music touches my soul even deeper. I feel he truly is the reincarnation - if there is such a thing - of my eternal admiration that is Monsieur Oscar Wilde. Do I sound confused? Maybe.
A nice thing then that one of the songs from is new solo record, namely "Grace/Wastelands" is gonna be named "Salomé", one of my favourite works by Oscar W.
But more than that, I can't wait to finalement listen to a record-version of "New Love Grows On Trees"! If you don't love this song as much as I do for ages now, go back listening to Madonna and get happy ;)
The reason why I felt like posting this was of course that I spottet Peter's new video of "Last Of The English Roses" on MTV about an hour ago - it's gorgeous. My boyfriend and his queer community should appreciate especially the ending, haha!

Anyway, I might feel like writing a review of the album once I bought it on the 13th - until then I give you six reasons why I am eternally in love not only with Peter's music, but also with his superb style. This is how men should do styling!

  1. I used to be obsessed with Pete Doherty, I guess I still am... I just don't show it as much anymore! :p!! I also love his poetry and am not a huge fan of the Libertines. He's a very talented man~ and so well dressed!!! I think that was one of the best things I loved about him; his attire.

    I'm glad to find another Pete Doherty lover! :)
    love, dayna
