Yes indeed, I do. Jonesy got him to sing it but not complete it, so he wouldn't get the QPR reference.
He wouldn't have sung it if he'd known. So Mick got him to make it echo...... (Source : From the horses mouth !)

I don't think the Who ever had a song with west London let alone London in their lyrics unless I'm mistaken.

As well as all the obvious Pete Doherty ones I could talk about (check out him dedicating a song to Charlie Austin and Stan Bowles at Leeds Festival last night if you haven't already), here's a little known one, Pete Townshend released an entire record called White City: A Novel in '85, the track 'White City Fighting' mentions QPR! http://youtu.be/IYJuuRALcWs"Imagine a relationship that went wrong but you held on in there for years: that's what it is like supporting a football team. Your loyalty to a team can never die. Ties are stronger than they could ever be with a woman. If she goes and sleeps with your best mate, it's over. If the Rs' boss, Ian Holloway, slept with my best mate, QPR would still be my team. Even if many of the things that you loved about going to matches have gone - terraces, team shirts without sponsors and being able to smoke at grounds - you still stick with your team." - Peter Doherty.

Just stumbled upon listening to GEORGE THE POET - a profound lyricist, poet and Cambridge Graduate, only to find out he grew up in NW10 Harlesden!
Has some beautiful snippets of Harlesden in this video also especially at 2:10 with the Harlesden Salvation Army building and The Harlesden Jubilee Clock.
Great to see NW10 in this light, and I can't wait to hear more from this lad!
