!!Belle and Sebastian (band)
* The chorus of "I'm A Cuckoo" mentions Music/ThinLizzy... Which is appropriate because the song's shuffling rhythm and duel lead guitars make it sound like an homage to Thin Lizzy's signature style.
* "Piazza, New York Catcher" references the 1960s hit "Walk Away Renée".
* "Like Dylan In The Movies" is a nod to Music/BobDylan, specifically ''Don't Look Back''.
* "I Love My Car" includes a nod to all of the main members of Music/TheBeachBoys, albeit with a very gentle TakeThat also included:
--->I love my Carl
--->I love my Brian, my Dennis, and my Al
--->I could even find it in my head to love Mike Love
* The title of ''The Boy With The Arab Strap'' was inspired by fellow Scottish band Arab Strap... which caused some embarrassment, as Stuart would later admit that he "didn't know an Arab strap is a cock ring."
* "The Loneliness of the Middle-Distance Runner" is titled after (and heavily inspired by) "The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner", a short story (adapted into a movie) about a juvenile delinquent taking up running.
* "La Pastie de la Bourgeousie" name-checks Creator/JudyBlume, Literature/TheCatcherInTheRye, and Creator/JackKerouac.
* The protagonist of "Expectations" builds life-sized clay models of the Music/VelvetUnderground for fun.
* "I Fought In A War" was inspired by the Creator/JDSalinger short story "For Esmé — With Love and Squalor".
* The music video for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdkoZLdEz_U "Perfect Couples"]] is basically a WholePlotReference of the short 1981 Chezch film [[https://vimeo.com/38580206 "Tango"]].
