Belle & Sebastian share Scotland World Cup anthem

Belle & Sebastian have written a new song titled ‘It Only Takes One Lion’ as an anthem for Scotland at the World Cup. Frontman Stuart Murdoch discussed the track in a recent interview.

Murdoch provided the quote “Who needs three? I wouldn’t know!” in reference to the track. He also spoke about his personal connection to the team and the process of writing the anthem.

The interview covered the band’s ongoing projects beyond the song.
