that would be a good reason to listen to much REM beyond their slow songs.

While definitely the best part of the song, I think it's far from best on the record.

You obviously haven't heard it while masterbating.

Never dismiss a piece of music before you've masturbated to it.

I've been overplaying this song and its not holding up well. Gotta turn my attention to others. Still optimistic that it will come back for me.

There have already been a few times that i thought i was getting tired of this one, and the next listen always brings it back. Great song

I hope this doesn't happen to me. I played it at the end of my run this morning and without fail it brings me down around a 7:00 minute mile. For context I'm usually around a 13:00 minute mile :shock: The song works folks.

I've remembered what the "down down down" bit sounds like! It's "Recovering the Satellites" by Counting Crows.

So far I think this song is the unsung hero of LB. It's one you can forget about out, but you're going through the album it's such a nice surprise when it comes up. I love the lyrics on this one..."whispered songs....breathing in forgiveness". Not to mention one of the best bridges on the album.

I really enjoyed the SW outro music last night after Victorino's bases clearing triple

(P.S. - Congrats Red Sox fans. As a Phillies fan, it was hard for me to watch Victorino win a ring with a different team. But I was happy for him last night. He had a hell of a game.)

I'm still finding it difficult to enjoy this song because of that phantom drum track at the beginning that I'm sure is not meant to be there.

You can't tune it out? It's like 5 seconds and barely audible.
