"I'm Waking Up to Us" is a song by Belle & Sebastian, released as a single and extended play (EP) through Jeepster Records in November 2001.
The track saw the band work with another producer besides usual collaborator Tony Doogan for the first time: Mike Hurst, former member of the Springfields and producer of Petula Clark and Cat Stevens.
All three tracks from the single were later collected on the Push Barman to Open Old Wounds compilation.
[1] PopMatters said the song, "ushers in a certain level of maturity for Belle and Sebastian, both musically and thematically speaking, as if the group had come through to the other side of their daydreams and realized they weren’t always all they were cracked up to be.
With rich strings and bold semi-orchestral elements like flute and harpsichord, the song found Belle and Sebastian playing with greater panache and spirit.
