Description: Belle and Sebastian were formed in Glasgow, Scotland in 1994 by Stuart Murdoch and Stuart David, both of whom had enrolled at Stow College's Beatbox programme for unemployed musicians. Together, with music professor Alan Rankine (formerly of The Associates), they recorded some demos, which were picked up by the college's Music Business course that produces and releases one single each year on the college's label, Electric Honey. As the band had a number of songs already and the label was extremely impressed with the demos, Belle and Sebastian were allowed to record a full-length album, which was recorded mostly live over three days, entitled Tigermilk. Murdoch once described the band as a "product of botched capitalism".

Description: Now and then it occurs to me I am still on my own Now and then it to me I am still on my own I become afraid that I could die Having only been alone I become afraid that I could die Having only been alone I start to think that I know This is why I always fear I still haven't found someone Someone to love Now and then it occurs to me I am still on my own

Description: Some people say that I'm a melancholy man When all is said and done It's just the way I am The sun is blazing as I wander into town A long grey overcoat which trails along the ground And when I'm walking past the children in the park They stop their games, they shout my name And run behind my back If only they could see how happy I can be But sometimes they must look away Or so it seems to me I think I'll always be a melancholy man I know when all is said and done It's just the way I am But if you have the time Please listen while you can Does anybody understand? I'll always be a melancholy man
