Interpol – Lights Lyrics 15 years ago
Phenomenal song, though I had to listen to it a few times to truly appreciate the melodic and lyrical content. The ending is sensational!

I don't think that he's saying "require"; it sounds like "ran through the choir."

Belle & Sebastian – Nice Day for a Sulk Lyrics 16 years ago
You're obviously not a true Belle and Sebastian fan, given by what you said: "I think it's pointless to read too much into these lyrics..." The following supports my argument:

For example, when Stuart says, "The Fall, Manfred Mann," does he mean fall as in autumn or the actual fall of the band Manfred Mann?

Also, when Stuart says, "Drank too much and fell in the Clyde," he's referring to the Clyde River in Scotland. Does Bobby drown? Perhaps that's the reason for the "nice day for a sulk." (Nice day that turned into a sulky one.)

You should go back to their very first song, The State I Am In, on their very first album and take the time to analyze the lyrics. Or just read some of comments of interpretation to be blown away: http://www.songmeanings.net/songs/view/3530822107858542672/

I've spent many years listening to Belle and Sebastian, as well as years analyzing Belle and Sebastian lyrics, yet I still don't fully understand the meaning–figurative, literal, etc.–behind many of their songs. Please don't ever say "I think it's pointless to read too much into these lyrics" ever again. Thank you.

Belle & Sebastian – Seeing Other People Lyrics 16 years ago
You are the one that's actually wrong and I'll prove it succinctly, with the line: "Because the other boys are queuing up behind us..."

Read the word "other," which implies that the two individuals kissing are also boys. "Other" is the key word, my friend.
