Back in summer of 2000 I remember pitching a tent in the middle of Donegal Ireland with my girlfriend at the time. I am Australian , she's German, listening to this song in the middle of the night on her cassette player in Donegal. No even knew we were there. She was so loving the moment of being there. We married and had 5 children. She sadly passed away from a 4 year battle of breast cancer last year on Saint Patrick's day. This song takes me back to that moment with my soul mate. ..Cherish life beautiful ones

I was 16 years when this came out. The old man put it on one night while cooking. He was younger then than I am now. Loved it ever since, their whole catalog in fact.

Dude I heard this song when I was 14 and the world was small and my home was comforting and I was in love and I wasn't scared of getting hurt and I was vulnerable cause I hadn't lived yet and that moment in which I first heard this song will always be preserved in this song.

The bagpipe gives me the chills

For me, it's Belle and Sebastian's best and probably most original song.

For those who will be there, this is one of the three songs you gonna listen to my funeral.

Movie: The Art of Getting By The movie is art The actor is stunning The Soundtrack 1000% made my day

whenever i feel exhausted/burned out because of life, work and university, i come here and listen to this beautiful song, crying my eyes out it's quite relieving!

one of my very good friends showed me this song a while ago, unfortunately he passed away in an accident last summer, this song has a special place in my heart. RIP jeff

This is one of the best songs ever eritten, by anyone ever.

I knew B&S with this song... I was in a store and this song was played... with all the noise here, i recorded with my cell phone the song, later in my house I tried to understand part of the lyrics and I googled it. For me, it was difficult because english isn't my 'mother language'...and well, now I am here. It was 5 years ago, and I could discover a great band. They're my favourite.

i remenber back in 1999 had panick attacks and couldn’t leave bed to attend my university morning courses . would stay in bed listening to this album

The night before a big exam at Uni I went to bed early, stressed out my mind, trying to sleep. About half an hour later I heard this song blasting from my friend's room next door. I got up furiously and burst into his room. ' What the fuck are you doing! I've got an exam tomorrow.' He looked at me and said ' I know, I was just trying to cheer you up by playing a song you love.' I felt like a monster. But we laughed about it. And I passed the exam. A good friend.

This is one of my favorites When they bring in the trumpet and bagpipes at the end

Nothing better than early B&S

This song made me miss a day of work ☺️

And the moment will come when composure returns Put a face on the world, turn your back to the wall And you walk twenty yards with your head in the air Down the Liberty Hill, where the fashion brigade Look with curious eyes on your raggedy way And for once in your life you have nothing to say And could this be the time when somebody will come To say, "Look at yourself, you're not much used to anyone" Take a walk in the park, take a valium pill Read the letter you got from the memory girl But it takes more than this to make sense of the day Yeah it takes more than milk to get rid of the taste And you trusted to this, and you trusted to that And when you saw it all come, it was waving the flag Of the United States of Calamity, hey! After all that you've done boy, Im sure you're going to pay In the morning you come to the ladies salon To get all fitted out for The Paperback Throne But the people are living far away from the place Where you wanted to help, it's a bit of a waste And the puzzle will last till somebody will say "There's a lot to be done while your head is still young" If you put down your pen, leave your worries behind Then the moment will come, and the memory will shine Now the trouble is over, everybody got paid Everybody is happy, they are glad that they came Then you go to the place where you've finally found You can look at yourself sleep the clock around

My favourite Belle and Sebastian song.

Most chill band in the world that I always listen to when I want to think profoundly about my life.

This is my favorite B&S song ever.

The real indie pop

I think happiness, love, and fulfillment are lowkey unachievable at this point

The trumpet always has this hopefull, anarchic tone...like a signpost to find out of the dark.

This song has a forver young kind of vibe and I love it

This always reminds me of an old friend.

all-time favourite song.

Just had a Valium pill, time to sleep the clock around...what a band!!!

RIP Benny Harvey. We'll miss you big man!

The Killing !

just dancing around in the room with this song, great vibes

The ending is similar to a 70s Brian Eno track called The Big Ship

bittersweet feelings listening to this one

Beautifull song, it's perfect 🎶

My favorite ever and ever

"the killing" - perfect scene with this song! damn!

Depression is a horrible illness

Tardé un poco en descubrir a Belle and Sebastian. Fue con "Fold your hands child, you walk like a peasant", su cuarto álbum, publicado el 5 de Junio de 2000, cuando acababa de llegar a Edinburgh, justo el primer día de aquel mes. No me enteré entonces ni recuerdo exactamente cuando me hice con dicho CD. Puede que sucediese a mi regreso, a finales de 2001 o principios de 2002, aunque me suena que lo compré antes, durante el 2001 y viviendo allí. En fin, no lo recuerdo del todo pero me suena mucho que fue uno de los pocos que adquirí en Edinburgh durante el año y medio que pasé allí. De hecho puede que cayese alguno más entonces, empezando por "If you're feeling sinister", mi favorito. El caso es que no tardé en hacerme con todos sus trabajos, enamorado de su preciosa música. Entre las canciones de su carrera que más me gustan, muchísimas sin duda, siempre he querido especialmente la que comparto aquí, que sitúo claramente entre mis favoritas, por no decir la mejor, extraída del tercer álbum, que publicaron en 1998 y cuyo título es "The boy with arab strap". En fin, un grupo maravilloso liderado claramente por Stuart Murdoch. De lo mejorcito que he podido disfrutar en lo que llevamos de siglo. 65. Belle and Sebastian, "Sleep the clock around".

I like this one..

'm on valium and pills, and try to sleep the clock around in bed like the lyrics describe it. i like this song because it has kind of a joyful vibe to the rather depressing lyrics. i can't handle reality

Pianos, violins, trumpets, cellos does not sound like a show-offy conceit with these guys, instead it all sounds unforced and organic, like that is the environment they inhabit.

Meravigliosa.

Que linda cancion

...and for once in your life you've got nothing to say and could this be the time when somebody will come to say "look at yourself, you're not much use to anyone"
