Poison Prince/Pete

[bergerac]

The song Poison Prince, meanwhile, casts a critical eye over the drug problems of one of Macdonald’s early idols, Pete Doherty. The two have since met, though they have yet to discuss the song. That may have been down to a simple mishearing. “He was being interviewed on television,” Macdonald recalls, “and the guy went, ‘So you’ve met Amy, she’s a big fan. And you’ve heard the song?’ And Pete went, ‘The song?’ ‘Yeah, the song she wrote about you, Poison Prince’. And Pete suddenly glazed over. The guy went, ‘What is it?’ And Pete said, ‘Why would I want to listen to a song about me that is called Poison Prick?’”
