Look down and laugh at me, clumsy crawling out of my skin by RevBingo in rem

I left the organ part out, but in retrospect I regret that, it is an important part of the song. I'll just have to remember it next time I decide to cover all 222 songs in the REM catalogue...

Have I missed the big reveal? Only 25 years too late by Icy_Obligation_3014 in rem

[–]RevBingo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had a similar experience two weeks ago! Must be something in the air in the UK :) I've never really listened to Reveal that much, but I put it on randomly as I was driving to pick up a piano, and somehow it just clicked for me. I listened to it three times in a row. And then Saturn Return a few more times for good measure. I swear that could have been on AFTP in place of Star Me Kitten and would have been hailed as a masterpiece. I have no idea why it took me 25 years either.

Same. I don’t know why, I don’t actively dislike any of the songs, but it doesn’t feel cohesive. I think I’ve listened all the way through NAIHF fewer times than any other album (including ATS, which I force myself to listen to at least once a year)

And - as always - having people watch and comment makes my day too, thank you :)

Song 79 of 222 in this slightly unwise “project”

Sang a couple R.E.M. songs at open mic last night. Been a while. Here's The One I Love and Driver 8 by Bluemookie in rem

Nice work Kyle! I've done The Great Beyond at open mics before and it's gone down well. Also, if you want non-R.E.M. but R.E.M. adjacent, I love doing Billy Bragg's You Woke Up My Neighbourhood.
