I was a young man about 21 or 22 going through heart break when I discovered Belle and Sebastian. That was some time ago now. Life didn’t get easier, but I got stronger.

I was exactly the same. If You’re Feeling Sinister is still the best, most heart wrenching, life affirming album I’ve ever heard.

I'm sure I am not the only person who is grinning from ear to ear. I'm sure that I am not the only person whose favourite this is either.

Ahh the glory and power of music! Obviously none of us know anyone in these comments and yet ..... we do. We all understand one another through our appreciation of this classic. Thank you Belle and Sebastien

It is big surprise to me. Today is getting better now.

I never thought I would see this. I had nearly forgotten how good Belle and Sebastian are. A beautiful reminder of being young and hedonistic - "Dear Catastrophe Me"

She was too good for me She worked as a waitress but she had a rich daddy She was slumming it I wrote her a note I said Dear catastrophe waitress [She's got style] She never wrote me back, she got fired that week But that's the way things go, it's bittersweet We got this song at least And it's called The Boy With The Arab Strap 🧡🧡🧡

Great song. But now I feel old, and I miss the 90's

Doesn't matter how many times I hear this......its the most perfect song🙌🏼Belle&Sebastian have been one of the most significant acts in my lifetime 👌🏼

Teachers! Best theme song ever !

I always thought the last line, barely audible in the original version, was "sometime bad times can take a while". And I think it really fits the times this live album came out, so I'll keep singing it.

The genre of music we lived through 90s are almost too luxurious and iconic.

This band's music has changed my life more than any other!

Happy sad music for happy sad people

Eu adoro o Belle Sebastian. E aqui em São Paulo encontrei um cara que era louco pelo trabalho do Sebastian também. O nosso eterno kid vinil era o nosso homem ciclopedia. Que hoje mora lá no céu.....

This song makes me want to skip about, and then drink from noon until noon again. I think my body could have handled it when the song first came out. Now, 'd be snoring by 1PM. Thanks B+S for this glorious song

I wonder how many times I've listened to this song. Thanks.

I was nodding happily along to this, then broke into a massive grin when the recorder bit came on with Sarah and the dog on her shoulder :-D

This is just glorious. Was moved to write just as the recorder solo kicked in :) I mean, recorder solo!! only B&S. Absolute one off. Am gonna order myself a vinyl copy of this live masterpiece right now and dream of the day I can see them live again in some city somewhere

Really loved this... I remember seeing them at the 40 watt club back in 97' or so... they were touring for if you're feeling sinister... they were fantastic, brilliant, beautiful... but I still clearly remember Stuart apologizing midsong during Mayfly... it was as charming today as it was all those years ago... geez, I love this band... ✌💙

Found this video uploaded just before going to bed. Gonna have sweet dreams tonight

In this old town!

this is amazing. my daughter learned the recorder solo this year.

god bless Belle and Sebastian

The six people that dislike this video must be very sad. Love y’all.

The Arab strap.... that's the one I like to groove on, bring on the recorders! We miss you Belle an Sebastian in this bizarre world.

I’m in a better place now, I can revisit Belle and Sebastian. Heart ache really can just decimate you huh. Spoil something thats pure like love and the love of music. Thank you for this. Your music means a lot to me.

Joyous indeed ....just what I was thinking, as I'm like pure Dad Dancing in my Kitchen, Yea man.Dance, Dance to B & S....Ha!

I am so happy yet so sad I have found this song. My Grandfather died of a Heart attack when I was four. He and my Dad never got on but we were apparently really close. The only things I remember about him are his scent, a combination of cologne, cigarettes and cumin. His laugh well more of a hearty roar that made me laugh to and when he used to take me to the golf course in his car when he would play this song as we hooned around his village. I could never find the name of this song. He died of a heart attack on one of our trips to the golf course and at the time I (being an autistic kid) didn't really understand quite what that meant. RIP Grandpops

Just made my day. Thank you.

Big love for this!

What an unexpected treat!

I love, love, love this!

Thanks a lot! Been feeling so down before listening to it❤

So needed this today. Thanks.

My dream is to see Belle and Sebastian live and sing along to Boy with the Arab Strap
