What I got from this song is "Create something for yourself."

REM is one of those bands where, each time you revisit one of their songs, you find something new.
Their music doesn't just stand the test of time, it keeps growing with it.

@rodyspace that isn't what Michael is singing, but it's still nice. It's "who drew the short straw."

Guitar reminds me of The End by The Doors.

GREAT SONG!! Standing on the shoulder of giants sound familiar?? @Oasisfans
-
wow. very powerful.
-
@TheSimonRowell Wow, it sure does!! At some points, it even seems as if I'm listening to The End. Never noticed that before... maybe that's why I like them both!

i think this song is about going for your dreams with everything you've got. you shouldn't rely on other people to make your dreams for you. This song inspires me!

Saw this song performed live in 1989 on the Green Tour. I still get movedhearing the lyrics 20 plus years after it cam out. Amazing!!!!!! Thanks R.E.M. for a great career.

@TheSimonRowell Yeah, this song has definitely a 60s drone feeling. At least during the verse :-)
My favorite R.E.M. song. Not sure of its meaning, but that's nothing new with me and R.E.M. I just like the sound of their music :)
