Pete Doherty covers Blur song with Graham Coxon

Watch the duo perform a classic old tune on NME.COM

Footage of Pete Doherty and former Blur guitarist Graham Coxon performing together has been uploaded to the Babyshambles man's YouTube account.

The duo are seen covering 'You're So Great' - a Coxon-sung track from Blur's eponymous 1997 album.

Watch the video by clicking below.

The description given to the video is "solo album shots", fuelling speculation that the two musicians are working together on Doherty's upcoming solo record.

The video was added hours after Pete Doherty posted up a video featuring a new song likely to be titled 'Grace Wastelands'.

Last month Doherty uploaded a video of him jamming with Johnny Marr, formerly of The Smiths and currently a member of The Cribs.

Prior to that, the singer added a video showing footage of a meeting between him and Lee Mavers, the notoriously reclusive frontman of The La's.

This makes a fresh news change instead hearing rubbish headline news about Oasis. 'You're So Great' is such a good blur song but very underated. Nice to see Doherty working with one of the best guitarists of our generation.

Pete has been doing these collabaration things a lot recently, maybe a solo release with loads of guests is on its way...hope so.

I like that song very much; it's one of my favourite songs of Blur, (maybe my favourite one), & I listened to it some days ago!
