You're A Better Man Than I

This is the new single by The Libertines. Woah, come back, it's much better than it has any right to be...



Cutting the pace to a half speed reggae time- woah, that's twice, now come back and sit down- the trebly guitars are all present and correct, Pete and Carl take verses each and it sounds alive.
