actually this is usually true - but menswear appeared on TOTPs without even a recording contract. so hypothetically they just have to think you are the cat's pajamas. oh, and don't ask me how I know that. please. -t.e.r.i. http://hampshire.edu/~tdzF94/ - Inspired by the writings of the eighteeth century Venetian gambler, eroticist and spy.

Were B&S asked to do a bit on Top of the pops on the release of the last single ?? but due to other commitments couldnt do it. If this is the case, will they have a little time to go on there to do Modern Rock Song.? I can just imagin the croud going from watching the tamperer sing some god awful tune, to seeing B&S. !!
To be considered for TOTP you basically have to debut in the Top 20 with your midweek and not go outside the 30 ... so, B&S haven't really been eligible up until now, and neither will they be with the "This Is Just A Modern Rock Song" EP as it is four tracks. (for those of you who are unfamiliar with the UK chart rules, a single may only be eligible for the charts if it is 3 tracks and 20 minutes maximum).
Belle & Sebastian have always said that if they get asked, they will play TOTP ... hopefully we'll get a chance with the next EP (which, btw, i have no idea what's on it, and indeed if/when it will be released).
