Belle And Sebastian Fan Contest Could End in Terror!
This has already been declared the best music promotion of the year, and with good reason. “Enter the unique code from your CD or LP in the field below to proceed. One very lucky winner will win the prize of a lifetime: Stuart Murdoch will come to your town, hang out with you for an afternoon and write a song about you, to be released on a special Belle and Sebastian 7” next year.” The problem is you don’t get editorial control over the song and the legalisms seem nonexistent. Scary stuff, for a band with songs like “Judy is a Dick Slap” and also that one really good one about the girl that gets STDs.
