My sweet girlfriend, who's working at home because of the stress, just left me a voicemail message of the title track playing on Jo Wiley. Even down a dodgy phoneline, this song sounds *amazing* on the radio! Mentioning the forthcoming appearance of Slow Graffiti on that soundtrack album to a friend last night, he said: That's cool! I said: Is it? He said: Of course - it means more people will hear Belle and Sebastian. Which sent me into a bit of a spin. Now I don't mind thousands of people buying the new record, because they'll be buying a truly wonderful thing which is all B and S. But I feel worried about Slow Graffiti being on the same CD as (wild guess) Sleeper, or the Bluetones, or whatever other crap they package together. I know I'm being a snob, but isn't anyone else a bit perplexed by this? It doesn't seem to fit easily with the band's control-freak philosophy. One more thing: could someone do me a tape of Elliott Smith? I'll make a lovely tape for you in return. Thanks.
