Belle & Sebastian - The Loneliness Of The Middle Distance Runner

[tigerchief]

great music but sounds alot like the kinks, doesn't take away from it though.

[hydogify]

hearing the best b&s songs is like having a crush....

[customerjon]

@hydogify EXACTLY! Holy crap that is exactly how it is.

i hate people who hate this

[biologyfreak101]

does this song have a point? i don't find the lyrics very coherent.

[MsLozzable]

@biologyfreak101 that's what makes it so beautiful.

@biologyfreak101 does it need to have a point?

[biologyfreak101]

@64Fathoms of course it doesn't have to have a point- who am i, a mortal being, to tell people how to write music?! it's better than a lot of other stuff that's going around, i just enjoy good songs even more when i understand them. too much to ask?

[64Fathoms]

@biologyfreak101 Calm down champ, there's no need to get confrontational :]

[ArcadeLips]

I love Belle and Sebstian.

Their songs are just..simple..and beautifull.

:)

the title has to be an iron maiden throwback, they've even got 3 guitarists, awesome

[MattAFlaherty]

@Sanctuary77 It's actually a reference to an Alan Sillitoe novella, as is the Iron Maiden song. Great song.

[Sanctuary77]

@MattAFlaherty that makes way more sense haha

[malejajim10111]

I could listen to this song a hundred times and never get tired of it...
