JUDGE POP is back

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Another week, another case for JUDGE POP. This time he's investigating an outbreak of TWEE on the streets of MEGA CITY POP. The good Judge has his suspects - Belle And Sebastian, ten-year indie pop veterans who regularly turn up high on the Poptimists last.fm charts. Are they a credit to pop - or a menace?

[Poll #965057]

If Belle And Sebastian are cubed, they will join PATRICK WOLF, who was narrowly found guilty last time the good Judge's services were called upon.

Great things by Belle and Sebastien:
'Get me away from here I'm dying' (or whatever it's called)

Bad things by Belle and Sebastien:
Nearly everything else

Really fvcking horrifically awful things by Belle and Sebastien:
Funny Little Frog -AARGH. [No I have not confused it with Lord Crazy of Frog, it is just really really bad all by itself. :(]

Sometimes I can deal with twee but very rarely and it generally requires a certain not killing my ears aspect. My boyfriend tells me that I listen to a lot of twee music, however, so maybe I am just in denial.

Crazy Little Frog is actually quite a nasty song!

Yes, it's pretty creepy. Underneath the POP.

There was this awful moment on Johnathan Woss' radio 2 show (which my dad was listening to when I was being dropped off to university this year) and some heavily pregnant woman rang in for a competition and asked for a different B&S song, which they didn't have, so they played that one FOR HER BABY. It was one of the most awesomely horrific moments of radio ever.

Hang on, is Crazy Little Frog some kind of Queen/B&S mash-up?

That conjecture alone is by far and away the most interesting thing connected with B&S to date.
