Kate, you're the big Nields fan, right? (I know that other people here are also fans, but you *know*/worked with them, didn't you?)
I heard "This Town Is Wrong" last night, and it blew. me. away. Must get.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Yep, Steph, that's me. And yay! for another potential convert! They are pretty kickass. Do you mean you heard the song or the whole CD?

Just the song. It was on the radio as I was driving home from class last night. And I though how much I loved it, and then the DJ said it was the Nields, and I was all excited, just because of hearing about them from you.

Yay! Okay, my recommendation is to buy If You Lived Here You'd Be Home Now, their 2000 album and the last one they did as a full band. There's another version of the song on the most recent album by Nerissa & Katryna Nields, which is actually titled This Town is Wrong, but I think IYLHYBHN is one of their best albums, and I'm only moderately enthused about the latest.
edit: aw, too bad about that B&S album, I would have liked to hear it.

That's the album that the DJ said the song was from, and IIRC, the DJ raved about how good the album is.

Did Belle & Sebastian do a Christmas album?!
I have no idea, but I've got like four or five Christmas songs by them, which are really good.

Low's Christmas album is particularly good, IMO. I'm fond of Yo La Tengo's short Xmas EP, too, if you can find a copy.
