Emily Browning & Belle & Sebastian – “God Help The Girl”
Yesterday, we learned the news that Belle & Sebastian frontman Stuart Murdoch had written and directed God Help The Girl, a musical movie based on the solo project he released in 2009. That movie now has an American release date, and so does its soundtrack, which Murdoch put together with the help of his band. And below, you can hear a new version of the movie’s title track, which originally appeared on Murdoch’s God Help The Girl album. Emily Browning, the star of the movie, sang the new one, and Belle & Sebastian backed her up. We’ve also got the tracklist for the soundtrack LP below.
