It’s always been my favorite REM song. Beautiful and haunting. It’s perfect.

always reminds me of vanilla sky

I loved the song for a decade before that movie came out so I don’t have the same correlation.

I think of Everything in its Right Place when I think of Vanilla Sky.

Vanilla Sky is the Sweetness Follows of Cameron Crowe films.

so i was wondering. is there a consensus second-best last-song-of-the-album song after find the river? i was listening to me in honey and think it's one of their most underrated songs, let alone one of their best last songs. i absolutely adore that song so much.

My votes go to "Electrolite" and "Falls to Climb," even over "Find the River" probably.

“Oddfellows Local 151” is easily their best closer.

My favorite closer is Electrolite

i'm shocked. i could've swore that everybody would've chosen find the river.

for the record, i LOVE oddfellows. well played LV.

also, i'm gonna dj is probably the worst closer. i hate that song.

I always liked this one. I love that it ends with the line 'I'm out of here' - and then the album is done

After “Find the River,” my favorite closer is “Untitled 11th Song.”

Find The River, Untitled, and Me in Honey are all so damn good.

Norah · Post by **Norah** » Sun January 27, 2019 6:57 am

yeah untitled is probably my favorite closer

Electrolite is great but Blue has a special place in my heart.
