I don't like this much.

Full-on Stipe.

Strains my nerves.

I've no idea what it's about.

It's apparently part of the sign of the Sinbad Motel in Miami, which appears to be a lie as the old pictures all show a seagull on the stick bit

REM - Automatic for the People, 1992. - Page 3 11953410

It looks more like a Sputnik sign.

"A can of beans, some black-eyed peas." music

Did Stipe just sing "the cat in the hat came back"? Sly

by Guest Fri Apr 24, 2020 7:12 pm

It's gone into another song half way through!

by Nightjar Fri Apr 24, 2020 7:12 pm

I dislike this bigly.

Yes he did. I think the song might be about looking after children. dunno

Track 4 - Everybody Hurts.

by Nightjar Fri Apr 24, 2020 7:12 pm

Oh no.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Fri Apr 24, 2020 7:13 pm

I've never been fussed either way about this one.

by Guest Fri Apr 24, 2020 7:13 pm

it's a bit background music this, if actually listen to it, there's nothing happening but it sounds fine if you just let trundle along in the background.

by Nightjar Fri Apr 24, 2020 7:13 pm

Everybody may be hurting, but as long as this song is playing I'm in just that bit more pain than everyone else. sad yes

by Nightjar Fri Apr 24, 2020 7:14 pm

This is like the dark negative of Happy Shiny People.

But just as awful.

by Nightjar Fri Apr 24, 2020 7:15 pm

Stipe has such an horrid voice.

Worse than Simon Le Bon.
