Our planned dirty weekend in Paris for the cover of the new issue of NME may have turned out to be a lot, ahem, cleaner than we'd expected (since when was Peter Doherty lucid, on time and sporting a healthy glow in those newly-rounded cheeks?), but he's still the same hopeless tortured romantic.

NME, 14 February 2009

continued...

He might be basking in his current singledom ("I left Kate... it was all broken guitars, scratches and accusations") but his heart's still bleeding for erstwhile Libertine Carl Barat, whose new age guru won't let them hang out together in case Pete zaps all his positive vibes. For the full unlikely story check out the new issue, out today (February 10) in London, tomorrow in the rest of the UK.

You can watch the bits that didn't make it into the mag piece - including the former Libertine's thoughts on love, the next Babyshambles album and "fuck-off big motorbikes" - in our video interview below.

Meanwhile, to mark the release of Peter's (the r is now apparently mandatory) new solo album 'Grace/Wastelands', we've got a track from it, 'New Love Grows On Trees', for you to download for free.

You can also stream three tracks from the album below.

Broken Love Song

Lady Don't Fall Backwards

Last Of The English Roses

And if you're still curious about Pete(r)'s first solo album proper, you can check out Jamie Fullerton's track-by-track guide.

New love grows on trees has been a mega TUNE for years, and it is still a mega TUNE now!! Top stuff, why can we not have more stuff like this?! I can now see why he held it back for so long.

I think it`s great that he`s still delivering the good`s and has the same commitment to his music and has prove time and time again he`s up there at the top as a singer/songwriter, great performer and most thing`s he put`s effort into. Au re'voir.

Pete is unique and there's no one else out there as talented as him. New love grows on trees is a fantastic song. Bring on the new Babyshambles songs!
