I love Belle and Sebastian in all their shapes and forms...lip syncing on totp, live on stage, on my ipod, on my radio.... They are peculiar in their accuracy in capturing life in little spurts.
You have to lip sync.You have no option as the musicians union will not allow live performances on progs. like TOTP.Fear not B&S do this better live.They have nothing to prove.
It's hard to believe some people don't realize this is lip-synced. It sounds exactly like the recording! Every hits every note perfectly. The guys are too far away from the mics to have their voices picked up evenly.
The fact that every performance on TOTP is playback is sad. But the way many great bands on stage there who are obviously not very fond of such an imposture always seem to find a way to make fun of the whole playback thing is the real entertainment.
@smoerebroed92 My favourite example of that was during a Damned 'performance' when Captain Sensible smashed his guitar half way through the song and continued pretending to play.
