It’s no secret that Belle & Sebastian’s Stuart Murdoch has an enormous stage presence. If you’ve seen the band live or heard him in interviews you know Murdoch has wit, style and can dance like no other man. So, it was no surprise when it was announced back in 2009 that he would be making a musical film based on the side-project and album (both named) God Help The Girl. There’s finally a release date for that movie though — September 5th here in North America — and with that announcement comes a revised version of the album’s title track with the film’s star, Emily Browning, on vocal duty. It’s pretty much what you’d expect from the mind of Stuart Murdoch: pop-laden guitars, a groovy drum beat and the occasional string part. Give it a listen below.
