The Libertines - Plan A HQ video free download

Plan A is a track released in 2002 by The Libertines as a B-Side to their single Up the Bracket[1]. The track name refers to a plan of action formulated in the early days of The Libertines by their manager at the time, Banny Poostchi, in order to get the band signed to ROUGH TRADE. Although the track is only a B-Side and no other session versions exist, it is often considered to be somewhat of a fan favourite.

In response to a question on the song, Peter wrote, "[I]t just came out one night all in one go, Carlos' riff and sinister things."

After the announcement of Dirty Pretty Things imminent split, Doherty dedicated Plan A to Barat when he performed at the Hackney Empire on the 2nd October 2008 - "I'd like to dedicate this song to Carlos Barat. He announced the death of Dirty Pretty Things. They're going to see out the tour but after that, that's that."
