Set the mood

When it is a grey, dreary, rainy day (my favorite kind), and I'm alone and not going to be doing anything more stressful than lounging around the apartment, when I have no work due for school or Stylus or anything, there is only one album that perfectly fits the mood: Belle & Sebastian's Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like A Peasant.

Yes, you have to take out "Beyond The Sunrise", but that song never should have appeared on the album. The other ten tracks are pure gold.

[Edited to add: Especially "The Model", "Women's Realm" and "There's Too Much Love".]
