Back in summer of 2000 I remember pitching a tent in the middle of Donegal Ireland with my girlfriend at the time. I am Australian , she's German, listening to this song in the middle of the night on her cassette player in Donegal. No even knew we were there. She was so loving the moment of being there. We married and had 5 children. She sadly passed away from a 4 year battle of breast cancer last year on Saint Patrick's day. This song takes me back to that moment with my soul mate. ..Cherish life beautiful ones
Sorry for your loss mate. I’m Irish and coincidentally it was Donegal girlfriend who introduced me to Belle & Sebastian way back then. Your soulmate was obviously a fighter, and I hope that in time you see her in the smiles of your children and hear her in their laughter and can let the emotions wash over you and be happy that she was in your life. Peace & love from Ireland.
@franksirhoy1419 I just lost my partenr to cancer after caring for her for 2 and half years. loss is never easy. I hope your pain has eased as I hope mine will in time. All the best xx
Studying at my university in the 00s, on max antidepressants and anxiety dampeners, reading up for exams in the park, trying to reach just some kind of human connection to someone via the internet while thinking if this really was the best life had to offer, is so much my mood when I hear this song.
Dude I heard this song when I was 14 and the world was small and my home was comforting and I was in love and I wasn't scared of getting hurt and I was vulnerable cause I hadn't lived yet and that moment in which I first heard this song will always be preserved in this song.
Beautifully said. 45 years old/young husband and father of three here, with the oldest being almost 13. I dont want them to go out and get hurt like I have been. Yet, it is the way. Hope all is well with you and your loved ones.
I was 16 years when this came out. The old man put it on one night while cooking. He was younger then than I am now. Loved it ever since, their whole catalog in fact.
The night before a big exam at Uni I went to bed early, stressed out my mind, trying to sleep. About half an hour later I heard this song blasting from my friend's room next door. I got up furiously and burst into his room. ' What the fuck are you doing! I've got an exam tomorrow.' He looked at me and said ' I know, I was just trying to cheer you up by playing a song you love.' I felt like a monster. But we laughed about it. And I passed the exam. A good friend.
I knew B&S with this song... I was in a store and this song was played... with all the noise here, i recorded with my cell phone the song, later in my house I tried to understand part of the lyrics and I googled it. For me, it was difficult because english isn't my 'mother language'...and well, now I am here. It was 5 years ago, and I could discover a great band. They're my favourite.
one of my very good friends showed me this song a while ago, unfortunately he passed away in an accident last summer, this song has a special place in my heart. RIP jeff
whenever i feel exhausted/burned out because of life, work and university, i come here and listen to this beautiful song, crying my eyes out it's quite relieving!
And the moment will come when composure returns Put a face on the world, turn your back to the wall And you walk twenty yards with your head in the air Down the Liberty Hill, where the fashion brigade Look with curious eyes on your raggedy way And for once in your life you have nothing to say And could this be the time when somebody will come To say, "Look at yourself, you're not much used to anyone" Take a walk in the park, take a valium pill Read the letter you got from the memory girl But it takes more than this to make sense of the day Yeah it takes more than milk to get rid of the taste And you trusted to this, and you trusted to that And when you saw it all come, it was waving the flag Of the United States of Calamity, hey! After all that you've done boy, Im sure you're going to pay In the morning you come to the ladies salon To get all fitted out for The Paperback Throne But the people are living far away from the place Where you wanted to help, it's a bit of a waste And the puzzle will last till somebody will say "There's a lot to be done while your head is still young" If you put down your pen, leave your worries behind Then the moment will come, and the memory will shine Now the trouble is over, everybody got paid Everybody is happy, they are glad that they came Then you go to the place where you've finally found You can look at yourself sleep the clock around
It's a beautiful song but don't let it glorify your drug use my friend. Valium took me to depths I never thought I could reach. I hope you're okay today ✊🏻
No sé porque siento que al leer esto no pienso en los seudointelectuales, sino que en tu consciente lo inconciente parece se la medicina amor, la inercia.
Tardé un poco en descubrir a Belle and Sebastian. Fue con "Fold your hands child, you walk like a peasant", su cuarto álbum, publicado el 5 de Junio de 2000, cuando acababa de llegar a Edinburgh, justo el primer día de aquel mes. No me enteré entonces ni recuerdo exactamente cuando me hice con dicho CD. Puede que sucediese a mi regreso, a finales de 2001 o principios de 2002, aunque me suena que lo compré antes, durante el 2001 y viviendo allí. En fin, no lo recuerdo del todo pero me suena mucho que fue uno de los pocos que adquirí en Edinburgh durante el año y medio que pasé allí. De hecho puede que cayese alguno más entonces, empezando por "If you're feeling sinister", mi favorito. El caso es que no tardé en hacerme con todos sus trabajos, enamorado de su preciosa música. Entre las canciones de su carrera que más me gustan, muchísimas sin duda, siempre he querido especialmente la que comparto aquí, que sitúo claramente entre mis favoritas, por no decir la mejor, extraída del tercer álbum, que publicaron en 1998 y cuyo título es "The boy with arab strap". En fin, un grupo maravilloso liderado claramente por Stuart Murdoch. De lo mejorcito que he podido disfrutar en lo que llevamos de siglo. 65. Belle and Sebastian, "Sleep the clock around".

Con esta canción yo conocí a B&S, estaba de paso por Santiago de Chile hace como 5 años atrás, estaba comprando en una tienda y comenzó a sonar esta canción. Traté de acercarme al parlante para poder captar algo de la letra y poder googlearla. Asi llegué a conocerles, estoy en proceso de coleccionar los discos, tengo algunos pero acá es dificil encontrarlos. Para mí son secos!. Saludos.
Pianos, violins, trumpets, cellos does not sound like a show-offy conceit with these guys, instead it all sounds unforced and organic, like that is the environment they inhabit.

'm on valium and pills, and try to sleep the clock around in bed like the lyrics describe it. i like this song because it has kind of a joyful vibe to the rather depressing lyrics. i can't handle reality
...and for once in your life you've got nothing to say and could this be the time when somebody will come to say "look at yourself, you're not much use to anyone"
Add me to the club.. Never heard this music before honestly, but had to check this out. Glad I did. Also the music in 'the killing' season 1 is on point.

he was fast on his feet to find an excuse
The bagpipe gives me the chills
For me, it's Belle and Sebastian's best and probably most original song.
Try 'If you Find Yourself Caught in Love'.....that's my vote, this - a close second!
For those who will be there, this is one of the three songs you gonna listen to my funeral.
Which are the other two?
I'm curious too

one of my favourite songs of all time. just heard Jackson Browne doctor my eyes on sounds of the 70's and thought, aha
And the moment will come when composure returns
Put a face on the world, turn your back to the wall
And you walk twenty yards with your head in the air
Down the Liberty Hill, where the fashion brigade
Look with curious eyes on your raggedy way
And for once in your life you have nothing to say
And could this be the time when somebody will come
To say, "Look at yourself, you're not much used to anyone"
Take a walk in the park, take a valium pill
Read the letter you got from the memory girl
But it takes more than this to make sense of the day
Yeah it takes more than milk to get rid of the taste
And you trusted to this, and you trusted to that
And when you saw it all come, it was waving the flag
Of the United States of Calamity, hey!
After all that you've done boy, Im sure you're going to pay
In the morning you come to the ladies salon
To get all fitted out for The Paperback Throne
But the people are living far away from the place
Where you wanted to help, it's a bit of a waste
And the puzzle will last till somebody will say
"There's a lot to be done while your head is still young"
If you put down your pen, leave your worries behind
Then the moment will come, and the memory will shine
Now the trouble is over, everybody got paid
Everybody is happy, they are glad that they came
Then you go to the place where you've finally found
You can look at yourself sleep the clock around
+cappatogui Thanks for the lyrics.
¡Gracias!
Thx for the lyrics. A tremendous song.
This is one of my favorites
When they bring in the trumpet and bagpipes at the end
One of their best if not THE best
This is one of the best songs ever eritten, by anyone ever.
This song made me miss a day of work ☺️
Most chill band in the world that I always listen to when I want to think profoundly about my life.
I think happiness, love, and fulfillment are lowkey unachievable at this point
My favourite Belle and Sebastian song.
all-time favourite song.
This is my favorite B&S song ever.
This song has a forver young kind of vibe and I love it
The real indie pop
Yep
@@t3rruk023 like the real slim shady
@@NicolaPeluchetti pls stand up
Just had a Valium pill, time to sleep the clock around...what a band!!!
It's a beautiful song but don't let it glorify your drug use my friend.
Valium took me to depths I never thought I could reach.
I hope you're okay today ✊🏻
This always reminds me of an old friend.
RIP Benny Harvey. We'll miss you big man!
Gone but not forgotten :(
lol
Beautifull song, it's perfect 🎶
Rolando Álvarez true fact!
The trumpet always has this hopefull, anarchic tone...like a signpost to find out of the dark.
감사합니다

Nothing better than early B&S
just dancing around in the room with this song, great vibes
Movie: The Art of Getting By
The movie is art
The actor is stunning
The Soundtrack
1000% made my day
In that movie is cover version from Mates of State, I love that version too. Actually I know Belle and sebastion from Mates of State😁
The ending is similar to a 70s Brian Eno track called The Big Ship
bittersweet feelings listening to this one
Essa música é perfeita!
i like to hear this song to remind me how not together my life is
it's always said the same to me

Pianos, violins, trumpets, cellos does not sound like a show-offy conceit with these guys, instead it all sounds unforced and organic, like that is the environment they inhabit.
Unlike Arcade Fire, which also uses a lot of violins and cellos but sometimes sounfs like garbage, even eve the guys give their best.
i believe the word is copacetic
I like the meloditron? That thing you play by waving a stick
BEAUTIFUL
Depression is a horrible illness
i fucking love it

LYRICS:
And the moment will come when composure returns
Put a face on the world, turn your back to the wall

And could this be the time when somebody will come
To say, "Look at yourself, you're not much use to anyone"

Everybody is happy, they are glad that they came
Then you go to the place where you've finally found
You can look at yourself, sleep the clock around
First heard this on Netflix's The killing.( U.S tv series)
Nice song!
Am hearing this song at 40 why and how z
all time favourite from B&S, always wondered what the instrument is used in the introduction?
真的超好听！！！
"Take a walk in the park, take a valium pill"
what a fecking song
I came here through cardinal burns. I'm so glad I found this!
Que linda cancion
'm on valium and pills, and try to sleep the clock around in bed like the lyrics describe it. i like this song because it has kind of a joyful vibe to the rather depressing lyrics. i can't handle reality
Reality is just a crutch, for people who can,t handle their drugs.
Or maybe you just have to learn how. Good luck!
