I was introduced to Belle and Sebastian, specifically to this song by a friend who took her own life. It gave a completely new meaning to it, in a sad, brutal sense. RIP, Arwen.

[@colorfullyme]

i am so sorry for your loss and the suffering your friend must have gone through...

[@murilkaa]

I'm so sorry 💔

[@lorenzosarli2310]

So sorry, man. Hope she’s finally happy wherever she is

This song means so much to me. When you hear a song that encapsulates your feelings exactly it makes you feel so much less alone. Thank you Stuart and gang.

+Arthur We are all friends here, aren't we? people are so bitter sometimes, going on and on fighting and spewing poison through the keys. We are not alone, and we are happy!

The lyrics to the album If you're feeling ... are some of the finest in rock.

[@jamescordey5795]

Absolutely!

So's the tune (By Nico)

[@ggguuuiiitar1834]

Just breath in and out slowly for the whole intro. You'll instantly feel relaxed and a warmth comes across your body. Wonderful song.

People don’t wait for a long intro head these days. It tears my mind.

Fucking masterpiece. All the people who were helped by B&S to live through high school hell should unite and live in an alternative community. Apart from everything. Only cats, dogs and kids allowed.

[@Micrologus5]

My opinion is, that it was done already. Couple of times(period of early internet pioneers included). But soon, these societies were inhibited, by Them. Because, they are so rational. And we're not.
