when I said REM sounds like music for thirtysomethings. At the time it was the worst insult I could imagine. I was listening to fun music instead.
Granted, it’s not party music like the B-52’s… (sorry, embedding disallowed, and there’ an annoying commercial at the beginning…)

Personally, and I don’t mean you in particular sxp, but I often found that people who listened only to “fun” music were often unhappy people. I love dark, sad music myself.
I like fun songs, I like sad songs, depends what mood I’m in. I just don’t think REM is very good. The only thing that redeemed “Stand” for me is that Chris Elliott used it in “Get a Life.” But I seriously can’t listen to it without thinking of a middle-aged suburbanite blasting it out of his garage while hammering on his boat.
and that album (Green) isn’t one of their better albums. And Radio Song isn’t that great of a song, either. I’m a fan of the stuff that came out earlier, for the most part, but I do like “Out of Time” quite a bit.
The odder the B-52’s palette, the better.
This one always worked at parties. Fun to see these guys as kids. (First few seconds are out of sync, but it eventually straightens out.)
Athens, GA — B52s, REM, Widespread Panic, Indigo Girls, Georgia Satellites — there must have been something good in that water.
Side note: I didn’t remember until someone here reminded me that the B-52s and REM both came from the same town. That’s like finding out Stephen Colbert grew up in South Carolina.
I miss Margot and the Junkies.
P.S. 94 days of silence from Pols on Mailbag Vol 2.
I liked this one –
Cash did, however, record the vocals for “The Wanderer” on U2s Zooropa.
is currently being used in a Blackberry commercial that’s in heavy rotation. Being only an edited part of a song, it’s giving me a nasty earworm every time I hear it.
Since one of the supposed cures for an earworm is to listen to the whole song all the way through, I offer this today. If it gives YOU an earworm, well, sorry.
Sorry, embedding seems to be disallowed. (I wonder if my computer is telling youtube something… second video in a row…)

When you click on share, and then embed, check off “use old embed code” so you can copy it the way you used to.
When I click on share, all I get is the link…
Youtube used to go straight to the embed code when you clicked “share.” Now you have to find the “embed” button too…
“Use old embed code,” as well.
I like this:
Thanks, mom.
For some reason that always reminds me of:
I like this version, bumble and all.
But still Mr. Excitement.
Poor Jackie. I wouldn’t want to die the way he did.
is Prokofiev’s 3rd piano concerto. Here’s the final movement…
… and if you have the time, go here for the entire work.
…As it’s a half hour commitment, but even if you’re not going to watch the whole thing, check out the celebrity cameos.
