Is it possible this is one of the great, underrated REM songs of all time? I mean, let's go back and go over why we connected with these guys in the first place: Driving, rock drums with pop sensibilities - check. Tunes with a "live" energy that work in studio and on stage - check. Bright, big guitar - check. Smart but not too linear lyrics (who will be your book this season?) - check. Harmonies with personality - check. Choruses that lift and invite us in - done and done.

sorry i never got around to blogging. i was going to write about how REM pre-maturely ended my metal-head epoch. oh well. i am enjoying listening to reckoning, reading the blog, and musing about how GB would have been totally emo if there was such a thing back then. james.
Whilst I muse about your feathered hair, knee socks with short shorts, and Def Lepard muscle shirt shredded with your mom's scissors.
