Bryter Layter, 1971
Written by Nick Drake
"Let's sing a song for Hazey Jane / She's back again, in my mind / If songs were lines in a conversation / The situation would be fine." Perfect orchestra folk-rock. And with that, we can call it for Belle and Sebastian. All of the Scottish band's entire oeuvre, every ascending trumpet line and jangling guitar, every soft-spoken twee reference, it's all here in this one song. Pack it in, lads and lasses. We'll just put this song on again and you can get back on the dole. (I kid! I kid because I love.)
