"Mistress Mabel" is a song by The Fratellis and the first single from their second album Here We Stand. The single was released on May 26, 2008. The song was first introduced by the band at their Queen Margaret Union show on February 22, 2008 as the first song on the setlist. The first ever radio play was on April 3, 2008 by Radio DJ Jim Gellatly on his "X-posure" show on XFM Scotland, the very DJ who was first to give The Fratellis radio play. Zane Lowe played the track to open his show on BBC Radio 1 on April 7.
The radio edit was released on iTunes (US) on Tuesday May 22, 2008, without any of the b-sides available.
The b-sides include two songs previously released as demos, "Boy Done Good" and "Ella's in the Band," and the never before heard track "When All the Lights Go Out."
The single received mixed reviews from critics and fans, and entered the UK charts at #27 on downloads alone. It peaked at a disappointing #23 on 1st June 2008 before slipping down to #38 the following week.
