I don’t think Michael Stipe really gets enough credit for his lyric writing abilities. Nightswimming begins with him driving around at night, with a photograph resting on the dashboard of his car. Every time he passes under a street lamp the picture gets reflected in the windshield. That’s a complicated image to put across well in a few lines of a song.
Possibly my fav REM song... good call.
What are some good punk bands then, since it was discussed earlier? It is a genere of music I know very little about and am wanting to explore.
