Who had "69 Love Songs" first? Why do poeple laugh at Magnetic Fields gigs? Why have some people stopped liking B&S? Just who is the 5 o'clock hero? These and other questions are answered in an article provocatively entitled "The Magnetic Fields vs Belle and Sebastian" on the consistently excellent Tangents website: http://www.tangents.co.uk It's a bit of a swizz, because there's only one paragraph about B&S before the writer gets his tongue right up the entire MF troupe's collective backside, but some of you might like it. Some of you might even agree with it. I think it's atrocious. What do you think? It's a debate. I look forward to Stuart's rectorial campaign. Keep us posted. Is he an independent? What's he for? What's he against? Is he going to have a public debate with Alisdair Gray? Hefner for Agriculture and Fisheries Minister!
