Their new b-side Good as Gold contains the lyric...

"I'll be your dog, I guess they'll never know.
Dogs are everywhere I go."

Several of them are from Sheffield actually. Just to throw that in.

Most of them are students from around London aren't they? Or they were, anyway.

I seem to remember Kate's stock response to being called a Sheffield band was "I'm from Surrey, darling"!

Hmm, I think Emma and Dorian are from Sheffield. Possibly Cathryn and Screech as well? The only one who I'm certain isn't is Kate.

Not that I'm an enormously huge fan of the Long Blondes really, just being a trainspotter. Also, Dorian is very very ill at the moment so we should be nice about them.

Calumlynn will be glad to know that The Long Blondes have officially thrown in the towel.

Very sad news about Dorian...what a thing for such a young guy in a successful band to have to go through at his peak.

Yeah, I feel sorry for him.
I guess Kate is bound to go for a solo career? Making a Jarvis duet almost inevitable...?

Jesus, that is a crying shame. I've finally got round to playing their second album quite a bit over the last couple of weeks. Very under-rated. I think with a bit of coaxing with the right producer they could have been a very succesful intelligent pop band of their kind (of the Pulp and Franz Ferdinand type).

I hadn't realised Dorian was in such a bad way. Considering he wrote at least 90% of their output, they were obviously in limbo. Hope he makes a full recovery.
