A little Belle and Sebastian to the morning brain never did anyone harm. Let's go back to 1996 to hear this song. Enjoy!
Song For Sunshine
12/7/2020
A happy little ditty from Belle and Sebastian. This one came out of left field for me and it took me a bit to find the song.
"Song for Sunhine" from B & S's 2006 album "The Life Pursuit" Love me some B and S.
I'm a Cuckoo
The song spinning in my brain this morning comes from Scottish indie group Belle and Sebastian. They have some great songs and today's is no exception. Here's "I'm a Cuckoo" from their 2004 album DEAR CATASTROPHE WAITRESS.
This song is the second single released from this album. Lyrically it sort of details a character spinning out of control as he tries to reconcile or connect with a relationship. Take your pick.
Wow, there are lots of lyrics in this song.
What I like about this song is the way the lyrics just sort of roll, almost unstructured, as if a crazy person is blurting out a bunch of things, trying to make sense of what's bothering him, until he finally confesses "There's something wrong with me. I'm a cuckoo."
I also love the horns and just the general feel of this song. Not too bad. Not too bad indeed.
In unrelated news, I'm reading a 700 page biography about the life of Michael Jackson. Pretty much can't put the book down. I'm going to go read it again now. I'm a cuckoo.
