4. That was part of the allure of them to me

I’m lyrically deaf (like bat blind in baseball) my friends will stop and ask me what I think lyrics of a given song are. I have several funny examples*.


REM’s songs could mean whatever you wanted them to depending on how you felt. I’ve listened to all their early albums and it’s like I’ve listened to 100’s of different songs. That was a big part of what brought me to them.

Fairly recently I’ve been listening to some of the later stuff and it’s damned good. How the west was won (great song title), Electrolight, etc.
