Belle and Sebastian - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

[@SiretEster]

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!

[@donaldwesterhazy9333]

If you are missing Girls In Peacetime Want to Dance make sure you get it. So good.

[@ahenshawful]

Do yourself a favour, and go see them when you get the chance

[@SamsaLilaTheHobo]

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!

[@MIDIPipe]

Same Here Sis!

[@raffrayronan6246]

Still obsessed

[@shortallliam3142]

Ms. Waters, I just read your profile; as someone who lost his mother to breast cancer, I really respect your fighting spirit - many times over - in fighting this killer disease...May God bless you, YOU make the world a better, happier place.👍💗

[@blacksunfish]

It's like gathering with old friends. I've been with Belle & Sebastian since the beginning. My love has never waned.

Never truer words wrote 👀👌😉

[@richardsagredo2421]

Thanks bro!!

[@emf6621]

I thought "Interview" was a B&S song I'd never come across, haha

[@sarrotamawara]

[@emersontomasini9495]

Thank you very much. 🙂

[@alexandraamaral1902]

Your music makes the world a better place to live in

[@tent7014]

The Sound engineer at KEXP is a GOD !

[@magicjoeblack5761]

Genius Band of Legendary status and speaking of 'legendary', nominating Sheryl Waters for the 'Rock and Roll Hall of Fame'. Who's with me?

[@shortallliam3142]

Thanks SO much, these guys are so humble, interesting and talented! 😄👍

[@piggystardust]

B&S... Never disappointing 💖

[@psicologoluizcezar]

KEXP too

[@piggystardust]

@@psicologoluizcezar That's right... have a nice weekend.

[@gfrizzleshizzlemanizzle]

B&D... Never disappointing 😈

[@carlosirineu]

The new album is Belle and Sebastian at its best. Unnecessary Drama live is so jawbreaking, Stephen and his harmonica are the perfect couple

[@hashburystumble8808]

String Bean Jean will always be my favourite Belle & Sebastian song.

[@Driver8takeabreak]

Shows the quality of B&S that that opening song is a random B side off a single and it still THAT good.

[@jonathansmith5495]

Sarah Martin - coolest pop star in a cardy!

[@crookedrain771]

This makes me so happy. I was so privileged to be able to grow up listening to these guys..

[@singingbear]

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

[@krtecek-who-tries]

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. 💜

[@Ididntaskforahandleyoutube]

They are mine too. They are my musical world. Love from Seattle where this was recorded. Cheers

[@かぴばら-i9v]

またライブ行きたい！！

[@mtnrunner2]

This is no ordinary band. They are great!

[@timelapsedad]

Tigermilk was the start of something indeed..❤

[@NesconProductions]

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..

[@RyanMasters831]

Just saw them at Fox Theater in Oakland. In my top 25 bands of all time. Arguably the best songwriters of their generation. Love.

[@kevindelasoie1503]

That's incredible how your music can spread happiness, love you Belle and Sebastian 💙

[@realessence]

I had the pleasure of seeing them live twice in my life. Good times :)

[@chrisparker8539]

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.

[@djmon1987]

So good to hear String Bean Jean. Stuart couldn’t write a bad song during that era.

[@annodomini1618]

I so love this band. I hope i get to see them live someday, before i die.

[@rodo6795]

I hope the same too!

[@ahenshawful]

Nothing like a bit of Belle & Sebastian on a work day, I am loving this!

[@ikiwies0]

my favorite band

[@jeancortino430]

FABULOUS HISTORIC MOMENT OF MUSIC

[@martinperon4576]

I only knew them by name without having heard any of their music, it's really good!

[@MIDIPipe]

Welcome to the. 2000's Bro!

[@romanjohncarlos2368]

A very precious band!

[@shannontalksmusic]

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! 👍

[@Carefaceeeee]

Fantastic band and group of people.

[@sidethinfinity]

Just listening, and I was afraid Cheryl wouldn't be hosting. Very happy to see the opposite; she's the best.

[@mikewilliams7519]

Ohhhh what a treat this is !!

[@davidboudreau532]

String Bean Jean!! Amazing start. One of my favs

[@DaveMcIroy]

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".

[@YY-ei1gm]

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.

[@tywebb6330]

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 💚

[@mldkenny]

Timeless, music to lift the spirit.

[@northmann1971]

Love them so much ❤️

[@MsDiggy55]

With so much crap going down, I needed this today-thank you, KEXP! I❤️B & S❣️🥰

[@wintersolstice2887]

sounds so sweet! the intro of ‘if they’re shooting at you’ with the flute and trumpet reminded me of ‘the go! team’ ❤

[@scoffcruddle]

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

[@GhostlyEcheveria]

I don't know if I've ever watched B&S perform live. They sound amazing.

[@brandonmcmahan2859]

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.

[@ahenshawful]

Do yourself a favour, and go see them when you get the chance

[@dkarras]

Saw them @ the Orpheum theatre Vancouver on Sept 13, 2001. That was a special night.

[@seanmurphy7733]

Always great live! Definitely see them if you have the chance.

[@Pining_for_the_fjords]

I've seen them twice in Cambridge.

[@bernarda3856]

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

[@jeremywhitcomb9107]

I was at the Boston show. Stellar. Legends. Wish they had visited KEXP 3 times.

[@wallybingbang4350]

They're all enjoying themselves. The drummer is well into it. Brilliant!! 🎸 🎼 ❤

[@metaldetectorists76]

Murdoch and the gang have been a long time coming on the mighty KEXP with our ChezzaX

[@malcolmgalloway175]

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.

[@boxofstars5491]

Wonderful! Can't wait to see you all in Birmingham UK in November.

[@anaereo]

Yeah! I like your intro about the artist...your hosting tone is great, thanks a lot for that.

[@victorarcanjo3322]

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.

[@monkeypawism]

Love love love B&S. Glad they are mixing it up.

What a treat.

[@amandabarnkow6194]

Just saw B&S live in central park! Wonderful night and they all are so talented

[@ArtifexMinecraft]

Incredible harmonica playing.

[@tjorloski1961]

give that man on harmonica a raise for christ sake

[@robertj8858]

This is awesome, been waiting for it to drop. Just saw them in Philly last weekend 😁

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

[@davidsonperez3054]

Musicos extraordinários

[@diegocinemax]

Meus heróis estão envelhecendo.

[@Driver8takeabreak]

Great mix. Often engineers don't get the background vocals on B&S high enough.

[@stec7515]

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.

[@jessie778899]

I wonder that too

[@CyberNancy]

Bill Leckie’s or Lucky Bills?

[@eagercolin1]

It took me 18 years to figure out what the lecky bill was.

[@randolphshafferknacker6819]

Sounding a little bit odd is very refreshing. We’re all a little bit odd. That is why we are lovely

[@ScottyAltizer]

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.

[@fullertronic]

love it!

[@FletcherCJohnson]

If They're Shooting At You is a jam. It’s as good as any of the best songs in the B&S catalogue

[@noodlesgalore9286]

Got dammit KEXP!! You did it again.

[@pepperachu]

Aww where all getting old together 😭

[@nowyourefinished6481]

Is "Stick Drop" the new Mic Drop?! (at 17:36) Fantastic performance by these wonderful stalwarts!
