Music for a British coffee house


I was resistant to Belle and Sebastian at first ... their music always sounded like something tailored for a gay "Charlie Brown" cartoon. But eventually I was seduced, even though I maintain they are too precious by half.

But listenable nonetheless. High marks for their new album, the "The Life Pursuit," particularly "We are the Sleepyheads," an early nominee for best single of '06.

And I've always prided myself on being resistant to "cutesy." Guess I'm not immune.
