Talulah Gosh - Talulah Gosh

Talulah Gosh - Talulah Gosh
3:24
single, 1987
Written by Matthew Fletcher

Never heard of this rather twee pop band, whose star burned briefly but apparently influenced a lot of jangling indie-pop guitar bands that came after.  I definitely can hear them in Belle & Sebastian's jangly guitar and soft female vocals.  This song, a proud entry in the long line of songs named after bands, implores a girl, possibly obsessed with stardom, to be true to herself.  Not so easy to do!
