    Right there has been an abundance of people asking what is the song on the Vodafone add set in the airport that goes "I'm running away with you" well its Pete Doherty featuring Wolfman - For Lovers.

    Nice one, my girlfriend was asking me what that song was and I never bothered to find out. I'm actually really suprised that it's Pete Doherty though, sounds like a quality song from what I can hear on the ad.

    you should try listening to more of his music then, and the song isn't his, its by Wolfman and features him.

    Clearly someone who does not know what good music and songwriting is. Forming an uninformed opinion is not sexy.

    Serbian you really need to hear more of Petes music! Your missing out big time!

    Not sure exactly what you mean by that, but I have heard a fair bit of Pete Doherty's stuff (mainly the stuff that is on the Babyshambles website) and it's quite different to the song on the ad.

    And as pointed out by lordgoat, he didn't write it, which would explain why it sounds different and also why I was suprised he was singing it.

    Pete Doherty co-wrote ''For Lovers'' with Wolfman.

    No it isn't. There is a song called ''Wolfman'' which Babyshambles usually finish their gigs with.

    Can't remember the address, but they're on Andrew Kendall's website. Find it, and click "Misc." at the top and you'll be able to download all of his sessions using bittorrent.

    Indeed, their ads are so annoying, they take good and great songs and make them unlistenable-to for a long time because of over playing! Luckily I haven't seen enough of this particular one to start not wanting to hear For Lovers. :)

    good lets keep it that way!
    And Are you gonna be my girl, there was so many people going around singing the first verse and not having a clue of the actual song! grr argh!
