Definitely my favourite to do out of the three I've done so far.

Although it doesn't really tell a story and the scenes don't completely match up with the lyrics, I really like it. The song fits Charlie and Liam so well, but more to it, The Libertines were split through drugs and this song is about the two founders of The Libertines and two best friends (Carl Barat and Pete Doherty) becoming this successful band whilst Pete strayed with drug abuse ("It's important to me"). Eventually Carl and Pete fell out through Pete's drug use and the band split, despite The Libertines having the potential to become one of the biggest bands in the world.

Not the most artistic efforts I'll do, but I love my little story behind it.
