    Jonathan David was released by Belle and Sebastian on Jeepster Recordings on 18th June 2001. Belle and Sebastian made two videos for this song; one with a 1960s theme and one 1970s and both were combined to make the final video.

    One of the greatest pop songs ever writen!
    That intro piano riff is just so melodically twisted you got to love it.
    And the lyrics as well as the video is hilarious in spite of the rather sad theme.
    Just perfect.
    This is exactly what pop ought to be!

      Agree. I've always thought of this as Zombies homage. I'd LOVE to hear Colin Blunstone sing this.

    Dundee's short lived "channel 6" music tv station that existed for a few years used to have a fairly limited selection of videos which they'd repeat endlessly. I think this got played about 5 times a day everyday for 2 years. Great tune. RIP channel 6.

    I know you like her
    Well I like her too
    I know she likes you
    It's not as if I'm being sent off to War
    There are worse things in the world
    There's still room on my wooden horse for two
    I was Jonathan to your David
    You're still King
    Well, I'd thought about her
    I dreamed she'd come, I'd make my escape
    I thought she liked me but somehow I was wrong
    I know you don't want it this way
    But it's O.K.
    It's not like we'll be parted
    It's not like we'll never know love
    And she'll smile for you
    She'll hold your hand
    You'll be in love there's no other way
    And I will make it some day
    I know you like her
    Well I like her too
    I know she likes you
    It's not as if I 'm being sent off to War
    There are worse things in the world
    There's still room on my wooden horse for two
    I was Jonathan to your David
    You're still King
    Visions of love recollected
    Have we ever been true?
    I know that I have, it's time for you to go
    It's all int he stones that you throw
    I want you to know
    It's not like we'll be parted
    It's not like we'll never know love
    And she'll smile for you
    She'll hold your hand
    You'll be in love there's no other way
    People say that
    "We'll never change"
    "We'll never change"
    But I have

    You will be Married and you'll be gone

      @@cmcc3721 you know, notifications are a weird thing. They show that before you edited this comment it ended with "hahaha". Which I can only take to mean you were joking. And, Christ, it reads so much more obnoxious and self-satisfied without the laughter.
      I've heard of some hipster gatekeeping bullshit before, but you're boss level. You're giving me shit for not being at the facial-recognition stage with the members of BELLE AND FRIGGIN SEBASTIAN?? They like the Beatles in your circles or something? Wtf.
      Trust me, with most of the world, they're in no danger of being mobbed when walking down the street. Haha.
      To be honest, I don't remember asking this, don't remember the song, or what actor I was even talking about. I do, however, remember the "Wrong Girl" video, always loved both song and video. So apparently one of those two main male characters, the son or dad, are also in this. I'm shocked I gave enough of a fuck that I asked. I like B&S enough, had the TBWTAS album. But, honestly, they ring a bit pretentious and elitist after a while. Perfect for fey, ineffectual, eternally anonymous internet gatekeeping trash like yourself. 😄 Good day, sir...I said good day!

You go on that giant rant, which includes apparently turning on and bashing a band you previously liked, because someone edited their comment to NOT include laughing, possibly at you?? Seriously man, they might have actually edited it specifically because they had second thoughts that the laughing would come off as laughing at you for not knowing the band members and you respond with this crazy off base mess of preposterous accusations based on next to nothing... Get a grip bro and honestly professional help is probably called for if this is any indication of how you think and interact with others in general. Good luck.

But, that said, I wasn't crazy about this one either. They have a LOT of stuff. Try "The Boy With The Arab Strap." If you don't dig that one, yeah, B&S just ain't your cup of tea.
