First of all, could this cut work on any other album? Well, my friend, the answer is no. This is classic "Murmur": quirky, frantic, random, murky, and well, murmury. There are a ton of odd little moments and changes in this tune that I can't help thinking are intentionally crafted to create something of a kiosk - the little structure in the center of town where you can find advertisements, invitations, and varied connections.
I do have a vague memory of an old REM concert where, in a soft lull before the next tune someone yelled out, "Moral Kiosk!", and I think it made Pete chuckle.
