Carl Barat has listed some of his favourite songs - and they include one by his old Libertines bandmate Pete Doherty's current band Babyshambles.

The Dirty Pretty Things frontman revealed some of the tunes that get him going, old and new, for German website Taz.

When he was asked for his favourite Pete Doherty song, Barat chose to ignore The Libertines' back catalogue and instead plumped for Babyshambles' 'Killamangiro'.

Other songs that make the Barat hitlist include 'Daddy's Gone' by Glasvegas, 'Do You Love Me' by The Contours and 'The Robots' by Kraftwerk.

Barat also revealed his top three punk songs - 'Jilted John' by Jilted John, 'Waiting Room' by Fugazi and 'Anarchy In The UK' by the Sex Pistols.

Actually Killamangiro is technically a Libertines song. Only difference being The Libertines version being called Kill A Man For His Giro. I think its on the sailor sessions.
