The Libertines Release Video For You're My Waterloo

The Libertines have released a video for You're My Waterloo.
The track is the third single to be lifted from their recently released third album, 'Anthems For Doomed Youth'. The clip, which you can watch below, was directed by Roger Sargent and Carl Barât, and stars Freddie Highmore and Marama Corlett. Discussing the video's concept, Sargent said:
“Carl was keen to show a glimpse of the London he and Peter knew before The Libertines, a kind of nocturnal nether world, beautiful, intense, romantic. We decided not to feature the band and to tell a story through the eyes of a fictional boy and a girl. It was a perfect opportunity to work with Carl, to make the story and the setting come alive. Working with Freddie and Marama was really exciting, Freddie is well known already and Marama is going to be a huge star. They ‘got’ the idea quickly and the dynamic of the slightly unhealthy codependent relationship. I wanted it to hold a mirror up to Peter and Carl’s relationship, but with more purity and beauty than is usually portrayed.”
