B&S are of the greatest musical loves of my life! You never came to Ukraine, and I didn't get to hear Belle and Sebastian in Berlin this January due to the cancelled tour. Fingers crossed for future tours! Still, such a treat, to watch and listen to them play live. 💜
Always wondered whether Americans know what they are actually singing about - lecky bills, working in Debenhams etc. The lyrics are so esoterically British, I wonder if it all sounds a little bit odd.
It does sound odd. Sounds like they’re singing about something. So many American…artists?…sing about nothing. I guess if you’re 25 and inexperienced and have no life experience and have nothing to say…then…you have nothing to say.
An absolute delight as always! B&S are one of my favorite bands for almost 20 years. Great blend of tracks old and new, always funny in between song chat... I watched with my newborn daughter. Can't wait to share music with her. Thanks KEXP and Belles! 👍
Credit KEXP & Cheryl Waters for roping in constantly great music & engineers for the great sound quality 😘! Saw B&S decades ago in NYC & great to see they've aged like wine! Thanks for this..
Saw them live in Berlin in 2018 and it was so charming. At the end they brought up some people from the audience to dance on stage (hell, not me). Also watch the movie "God help the girl".
Awesome as ever! Hope against hope they might bring the tour to NZ, haven't seen them live in such a long time. Shame they didn't do Talk To Me, Talk To Me, definitely my favourite off the new album. Which is a real return to form
Seeing them in Edinburgh in November for ma 50th, seen em aboot 5 times b4 (mind them fae Renfrew & Erskine 😉) but this will be the wee mans first gig 💚
Saw them live for the first time about a month ago, and it was the best live show I’ve ever been to. So amazing, and relying completely on their own talent, charisma, and music. No need for crazy stage effects, etc. just incredible.
Remember watching their Glastonbury Boy with the Arab Strap where he invited people up. Exhilarating! And the song for Ukraine makes me cry. Love love love them forever. Xxx
I was obsessed with them for a decade: imagine my shock when I learned it wasn’t a band with a tiny short haired girl and a soft handed man: took me a while to come back to them.
Nem acredito que vou ver vocês aqui em São Paulo dia 09/dez Meu Deus! Desde meus 10 anos eu amo vocês. ------------------------------------- I can even belive i going to see they here at São Paulo on dec/09 OMG. Love them since I was 10. Love you guys.
Wow, great preformance! Good to see Belle and Sebastian - been a big fan since hearing them in the Emerica this is skateboarding video when I was younger. So talented.
I saw them last Saturday at the Roadrunner in Boston. Even though I have been a fan since the beginning it was my first time seeing them. It was so incredible
I saw them once at the Wiltern about 17 or 18 years ago. My friend and I got to meet Stewart outside while we were waiting to get in. We just happened to be somewhere near a side door that Stewart came out of to have a cigarette.
I was *obssesed* with B&S in my teens, havent listened in years, got chills hearing Stuart's voice again, gotta go back to my dusty cd's!
If you are missing Girls In Peacetime Want to Dance make sure you get it. So good.
Do yourself a favour, and go see them when you get the chance
Check out this latest album and the rest of the 21st century release stack I think you'll be pleasantly surprised how great they matured!
Same Here Sis!
Still obsessed
The Sound engineer at KEXP is a GOD !
The Best Pop Band on the Planet!!!!
00:39 - 05:05 String Bean Jean

Never truer words wrote 👀👌😉
Thanks bro!!
I thought "Interview" was a B&S song I'd never come across, haha
@@emf6621 😂😅
Thank you very much. 🙂
B&S are of the greatest musical loves of my life! You never came to Ukraine, and I didn't get to hear Belle and Sebastian in Berlin this January due to the cancelled tour. Fingers crossed for future tours!
Still, such a treat, to watch and listen to them play live. 💜
They are mine too. They are my musical world. Love from Seattle where this was recorded. Cheers
Sarah Martin - coolest pop star in a cardy!
my favorite band
With so much crap going down, I needed this today-thank you, KEXP! I❤️B & S❣️🥰
Love love love B&S. Glad they are mixing it up.
This is awesome, been waiting for it to drop. Just saw them in Philly last weekend 😁
Murdoch and the gang have been a long time coming on the mighty KEXP with our ChezzaX
So cool...cheers from Brazil
This is a nice treat. Great band!!!
It's like gathering with old friends. I've been with Belle & Sebastian since the beginning. My love has never waned.
👽
The new album is Belle and Sebastian at its best. Unnecessary Drama live is so jawbreaking, Stephen and his harmonica are the perfect couple
Your music makes the world a better place to live in
B&S... Never disappointing 💖
KEXP too
@@psicologoluizcezar That's right... have a nice weekend.
B&D... Never disappointing 😈
Genius Band of Legendary status and speaking of 'legendary', nominating Sheryl Waters for the 'Rock and Roll Hall of Fame'. Who's with me?
Tigermilk was the start of something indeed..❤

I wonder that too
Bill Leckie’s or Lucky Bills?
It took me 18 years to figure out what the lecky bill was.
Sounding a little bit odd is very refreshing. We’re all a little bit odd. That is why we are lovely
It does sound odd. Sounds like they’re singing about something. So many American…artists?…sing about nothing. I guess if you’re 25 and inexperienced and have no life experience and have nothing to say…then…you have nothing to say.

So good to hear String Bean Jean. Stuart couldn’t write a bad song during that era.
Just saw them at Fox Theater in Oakland. In my top 25 bands of all time. Arguably the best songwriters of their generation. Love.
Shows the quality of B&S that that opening song is a random B side off a single and it still THAT good.

Quem é do Brasil e curte Belle and Sebastian deixa um joinha aqui 🇧🇷🇧🇷🏴🏴
👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽
Pensava que eles eram da Irlanda, sempre confundo hehe
@@Thud94 Whisky e Belle and Sebastian, as melhores coisas que a Escócia deu ao mundo. Gosto de ambos.
Why do they all look so old?
[Looks in the mirror]
Damn. I look old, too. ;)
Cheers!
Great mix. Often engineers don't get the background vocals on B&S high enough.
Saw them live in Berlin in 2018 and it was so charming. At the end they brought up some people from the audience to dance on stage (hell, not me).
Also watch the movie "God help the girl".
Awesome as ever! Hope against hope they might bring the tour to NZ, haven't seen them live in such a long time. Shame they didn't do Talk To Me, Talk To Me, definitely my favourite off the new album. Which is a real return to form
This makes me so happy. I was so privileged to be able to grow up listening to these guys..
tacos love everyone
🌈
Aww where all getting old together 😭
This is no ordinary band. They are great!
Nothing like a bit of Belle & Sebastian on a work day, I am loving this!
Teenage Fanclub bass player in the house.
Stuart was in my brothers class at school 🙂
String Bean Jean will always be my favourite Belle & Sebastian song.
またライブ行きたい！！
Musicos extraordinários
I only knew them by name without having heard any of their music, it's really good!
Welcome to the. 2000's Bro!
give that man on harmonica a raise for christ sake
Seeing them in Edinburgh in November for ma 50th, seen em aboot 5 times b4 (mind them fae Renfrew & Erskine 😉) but this will be the wee mans first gig 💚
String Bean Jean!! Amazing start. One of my favs
That's incredible how your music can spread happiness, love you Belle and Sebastian 💙
Mornington crescent, what a tune. Wish they played that
I don't know if I've ever watched B&S perform live. They sound amazing.
Saw them live for the first time about a month ago, and it was the best live show I’ve ever been to. So amazing, and relying completely on their own talent, charisma, and music. No need for crazy stage effects, etc. just incredible.
Do yourself a favour, and go see them when you get the chance
Saw them @ the Orpheum theatre Vancouver on Sept 13, 2001. That was a special night.
Always great live! Definitely see them if you have the chance.
I've seen them twice in Cambridge.
Remember watching their Glastonbury Boy with the Arab Strap where he invited people up. Exhilarating! And the song for Ukraine makes me cry. Love love love them forever. Xxx
I so love this band. I hope i get to see them live someday, before i die.
I hope the same too!
Saw them live in France. They are so good and so humble. Don’t know any other Band sounding like that. And their music is wonderful
Hope they will return to Perú, 🙌🏾
I was obsessed with them for a decade: imagine my shock when I learned it wasn’t a band with a tiny short haired girl and a soft handed man: took me a while to come back to them.
so good.

sounds so sweet! the intro of ‘if they’re shooting at you’ with the flute and trumpet reminded me of ‘the go! team’ ❤
❤
If They're Shooting At You is a jam. It’s as good as any of the best songs in the B&S catalogue
Incredible harmonica playing.
❤
FABULOUS HISTORIC MOMENT OF MUSIC

String bean Jean is one of the greatest songs of all time
Meus heróis estão envelhecendo.

Olympia, Dublin july 2nd, 2023...🤩
Such a great sound and feel.. Their music makes me smile inside :0)
Class Band...👌
Ohhhh what a treat this is !!
I am here because of The Simpsons.
Just listening, and I was afraid Cheryl wouldn't be hosting. Very happy to see the opposite; she's the best.
Got dammit KEXP!! You did it again.
Inch for inch, and pound for pound, who needs boys when there's Lisa around?
Yeah! I like your intro about the artist...your hosting tone is great, thanks a lot for that.
I saw them last Saturday at the Roadrunner in Boston. Even though I have been a fan since the beginning it was my first time seeing them. It was so incredible
I was at the Boston show. Stellar. Legends. Wish they had visited KEXP 3 times.
STEVIE FUCKING JACKSON
Absolute class 👏
Donostia awaits you. See you tomorrow! ☀
LINDOS!
awsome and unspected.
first song "String Bean Jean"?
I hope she didn’t just call Elbow “desperate” because they recorded remotely during the early days of the pandemic.
I loved it!!
Is "Stick Drop" the new Mic Drop?! (at 17:36)
Fantastic performance by these wonderful stalwarts!
Aí o Belle And Sebastian está no seu programa, e vc deixa ele cantar apenas 3 ou 4 músicas
Love them so much ❤️
Wonderful! Can't wait to see you all in Birmingham UK in November.
Timeless, music to lift the spirit.
Brilliant performance. Cant help thinking we'll all be sharing baths again to save on the lecy bill.
A very precious band!
I had the pleasure of seeing them live twice in my life. Good times :)
I saw them once at the Wiltern about 17 or 18 years ago. My friend and I got to meet Stewart outside while we were waiting to get in. We just happened to be somewhere near a side door that Stewart came out of to have a cigarette.
Effin awesome!
B&S always makes me happy :)
So good! Love B&S
Right over her head at the beginning!
They're all enjoying themselves. The drummer is well into it. Brilliant!!
🎸
🎼
❤
Mastering that kind of big band. 👌🏼Awesome job as always.
First time seeing them live too. 🥰
Thanks B&S and KEXP.
Just saw B&S live in central park! Wonderful night and they all are so talented
Brilliant.
