Mate that was a nice intro. For me, I was 18 then and happened to have bought it on single when I was at uni. I remember staying up all night working at that time and listeningto this. I went to the park at 5ish and this was all I could hear in my head! Remains an incredibly strong memory for me coz of this song. ->Alex Park in Manchester! lol I was lucky to come back alive! :P Fu*ing happy days...
Nice to know other people are touched by this song. People who are not my co-workers don't understand how it is to get up for work at 3:45 am and drive to work in the dark and how it is to feel so isolated. And what it's like to go to bed at 7 pm when the rest of the world is still partying.
I like that you talk about the song. We all do it. If we don't, we want to. Reminds me of High Fidelity with John Cusack. I love the song, too. I used to be a daysleeper, too and can relate. It's cool to sink into great music because, as us night-shift workers know, work can be mundane. Keep on keepin on, British homeboy.
To me, R.E.M are the modern Beatles, or the closest thing to the Beatles we have in our times if you prefer that definition. Feel free to disagree, but I won't take that back!
I was wondering where you have been. This is a great tune Chris and your analysis of REM is dead on. They are still as relevant today as they were in the 90s.
why are you such a quim?

Michael Stipe tends to pinpoint the emotions that many people feel. He's no Morrissey, but he's hell of a lot further ahead than most song writers
