Belle and Sebastian Rate Moby, Dad Jokes, and Baseball

(drumming)

Underrated.

Overrated.

(laughter)

Glad to see we're on the same page.

I'm the king of dad jokes in my house.

Yeah, my dad only ever had one joke,

it was, I'm homesick,

but Dad, you're at home,

I know, I'm sick of it.

(laughter)

You could say that,

you could say that on a weekly basis,

and it would still be clever.

I think he probably did.

Funny and true.

(drum roll)

Scotland's been overrated, it's on,

it was the number one destination

for a while, wasn't it?

On one of these trendy websites,

and so I would say that was overrated.

I'm gonna say underrated,

because I don't wanna get my head kicked in

when I go home.

(drum roll)

Oh, overrated.

I mean, they're hideous things.

I think they should be outlawed.

People should do what they want, you know,

so now I feel bad, I fell guilty.

Have your sports bar.

I won't come.

(drum roll)

It's weird, like, sometimes, the biggest acts

are kinda weirdly underrated

'cause people just see the

you know, the pizzazz and the, you know,

the videos and the popularity and all that,

and you kinda sometimes just

miss the artistry of it, you know.

That's popular culture, you know,

I mean, you know, we might only be ever remembered

for leaving our drummer in a Walmart,

that's what we might take to the grave,

and look, you know.

Yeah.

That's fine.

(drum roll)

Moby?

The little guy.

Overrated.

Can you imagine if he's just sitting, if, you know--

Yeah, if this is the point you bring him in, right?

Yeah, I know, well, the chance,

it's slim, slim chance that he would ever,

you know, watch this, he'd be saying,

Who are these assholes?

What the fuck?

(drum roll)

Well, it's just kinda overrated rounders, isn't it?

You love baseball, what you talking about?

Yeah.

I think he's being ironic.

He's obsessed by baseball.

The only times I've been to baseball games

is 'cause Stuart's taken me when we arrive in town.

Let's go to the baseball.

I loved it, it was great, you know.

If you're sitting there and it's 80 degrees,

and, you know, you're sitting with the beer

and your friends, the great American experience,

they could be dancing ballet out there.

Yeah, it has more of an everyman quality to it.

(drum roll)

Oh.

Well, he was a hero to most.

But he didn't mean shit to me.

You know, Cheltie actually pointed out that

it was the image of Elvis that was overrated.

People say all kinds of things.

(laughter) It doesn't mean aught.

We're all energy, it's all changing, it's all shifting.

I'll bow to my colleague's analysis.
