I used to not think much of this song. But now I think it’s one of the highlights of the Belle and Sebastian back catalogue.
B&S are often criticized for being too affected and/or twee. Not in this song, which tells Stuart Murdoch’s version of his break-up with former bandmate Isobel Campbell. How many songs do you know where Murdoch comes off as a petty, patronizing...
The Veils—“Sit Down by the Fire”...

Heard the Black Keys on Q last night—probably the first time I’m ever listened to a whole song. The singer/guitar player seems alright, but the drummer seems to have no f***ing clue what he’s doing. Did I just hear the wrong songs?
