Belle and Sebastian es un grupo escocés de pop formado en Glasgow en enero de 1996 bajo la tutela de un curso de negocio musical y formado apoyándose principalmente en el talento creativo de Stuart Murdoch. Su primer álbum, Tigermilk, fue grabado como parte de dicho curso y lanzado por el sello independiente Electric Honey.
Tras haber firmado con un sello ligeramente más grande --Jeepster Records-- lanzaron el álbum If You're Feeling Sinister en 1996 y una secuencia de sencillos a lo largo de 1997.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!

C#BF#BC#B I was surprised, i was happy for a day in 1975
A#mG#mF#BC#B i was puzzled by a dream, it stayed with me all day in 1995
A#mG#mF# my brother had confessed that he was gay
BC#B it took the heat off me for a while
A#mG#m he stood up with a sailor friend
F#BC#B and made it known upon my sisters wedding day
Etc.
Chorus ("they dont seem to mind"...go to end of G#m, then chorus):
F# I gave myself to sin
A#mE and i've been there and back again
G#m i gave myself to providence the state i am in
