I second that. Although St. Lucy's letter had me rolling, too. One little flaw with Honey's letter's though...can ya guess? That's right, they were all about Belle and Sebastian. Wholly unrealistic. If no one minds (and someone will) I have a couple of favors to ask: 1) Could everyone please stop ending their letters with "Um...Belle and Sebastian content"? It makes it sound like it's something painful, like a fee. "Oh, I *would* write to 500 strangers about my love life, stress over school and make dumb "jokes" about not putting spaces in sentences, but...then I'd have to write something about B&S, so it's just not worth it." So here's my point: write about whatever you want, but don't make writing about Belle and Sebastian sound like some sort of chore. Please. Because there are those of us who could write volumes on the tiniest of B&S details, but don't out of respect for the people who prefer to stay awake. 2) Not that I'm going to have many fans after #1, but it's driving me slightly crazy that there are three unreleased B&S songs that I still haven't heard. These would be "...Middle Distance Runner", "Rhoda" and "Tigermilk". If anyone has these songs, I would gladly make some sort of trade. What can I offer besides the Kajagoogoo bootlegs? Um, an REM bootleg from before they were signed (it's incredible), several Grant Lee Buffalo bootlegs and I have access to a wide selection of American indie rock, heavy on the North Carolina music. Mail me privately if you would be so kind as to provide me with said gems. Thanks. At the risk of sounding like one of Paul's made-up posts, I heard three songs off the new one and I was ear-to-ear all day. They just keep getting better and better. I would go on and on about how perfect it is, but I'm all self-conscious now.
