reminds me of a song by Belle and Sebastian:

"... and the head said that you always were a queer one from the start
For careers you say you want to be remembered for your art
Your obsessions get you known throughout the school for being strange
Making life-size models of The Velvet Underground in clay"

I see what you mean, great lyrics. Now I am in the mood for a little B&S.

Asleep On A Sunbeam ~ Belle & Sebastian

Got me in the mood too - one of those bands I don't tend to listen to much, until I get reminded of how fucking great they are, then I play them all day!

I've been known to listen to three or even four complete B&S albums one after another, something I don't think I'd do with any other act. And I have a big music collection.

Me too - 3,200 albums and counting - there are quite a few bands I can do that with, it is very much a "have to be in the mood" thing.

That's a lot more than I have, but then I've hardly listened to the radio in the last 5 years or more, and only started collecting in earnest at a relatively late stage.

3,200 is lot, by any standards. Start a thread to see who has the biggest music collection on the forum.
