If you didn't shit the sheets, then that's weird.

I prefer the IRON EAGLE gimmick, the Commentbot "GOOD ONE" gimmick, and one other gimmick I'm not remembering.

You're BOTH wrong!

Desperate but not serious.

Oh, don't feel bad. I flagged it, too and I like this commenter normally.  To Siberia!

You have to work it out with your fellow poor folks, I'm afraid.

Yeah, but objectively UP is not that memorable.  Maybe if it was the first R.E.M. album he ever heard….But he actually heard Document first.  So yeah, he's an odd duck.

There is no accounting for taste, but your chronology is off.

Don't Quit BONO.  It would break my fucking heart.

They grabbed that ball with both hands and humped it right up the middle into the end zone.

Stick with Fables. It really is better.  MistakenCheeseSandwich is slightly mistaken.

I gotta say that the Out Of Time love bothers me, I hated half of it, and I'd at least liked every single song before that.

I'm old enough to remember when REM got no radio play, aside from the college stations and the publicity was all word of mouth and weird articles in fanzines and later SPIN and such.  The Replacements were in the same boat (as were a lot of different bands that would be considered totally unrelateable today, including…

It's not a matter of finding the right song.  If you didn't like Lifes Rich Pageant then you've just got bad taste.

Like a chain in a gun
Like a call in the sun
Like a bell or a spell
Like an angel
With stars circling round her head

Damn it, you beat me to it.   Probably because I was using the HTML to look sophisticated.

Hey, I actually wanted to know.  Thanks.  It seemed like there was a reason for the statement and there WAS.  I love it.

But I want a girlfriend who will put up with my shit…a put-upon Southern Girl for me I guess.  Oh, I'm a despicable bounder.

Dune is great, so don't let the so-called experts get you down!
