Boy with the Arab Strap
dull? dull?
what about songs like 'im a cuckoo' or 'piazza new york catcher'?
EH?![]()
piazza new york catcher is the dull. zzzzzzzz.
i think the lyrics are amazing. very clever if nothing else.
i think they are very self satisfied and smug.


Them and Eels, two of the most unacceptably overrated bands of our time.
Them? Over-rated? Don't you even like Gloria, you cloth-eared git?
Belle and Sebastian were wank. Part of a triumverate of insufferable overrated twee shite along with the Smiths and Beautiful Sou





i seem to find myself humming 'sleep the clock around' more than any of their other songs...
Perm one from those. I also really liked funny little frog, but I'm too hardcore to admit to liking something of the new album especially that's a single, oh i loved act of the apostle too.

Yes - I'd actually come upstairs to write that one on my list.

i didnt like most of the new album, except 'dress up in you' which is one of my favorite b&s songs.
i will admit to liking 'the blues are still blue' tho, very catchy. even if stuart does sing it in a funny accent.![]()
