The only reason I never gave Belle and Sebastian a chance was cause of their name.
First I thought they were part of the soundtrack for Beauty and the Beast. Wasn't the candle called Sebastian? They're releasing a CD? Do they sing "See my vest"?
Then I found out they're two guys from Glasgow and I figured they walk up on stage in black unitards, dressed as Mansies (half man, half pansy) and step up to the mic with an acoustic guitar and go:
"oooh look at me! i'm Belle! heehee" *frollick*
"and i'm Sebastian!" *twirl*
With that said, I'm only now coming around. Your Cover's Blown from last year's Books EP is pretty cool, and they always have good covers:
A friend uploaded their discography. Maybe I'll give it a shot. *twirl*

Great stuff. Yeah, give them a shot. What'd you think of Clap!Clap! ...?
