"Radio Song" - R.E.M.

by Max on Sat 02 Aug 2008 12:35 PM PDT | Permanent Link

Earlier today, Woordenaar posted a track he doesn't like from R.E.M.'s 1991 release Out of Time, which just happens to be yet another one of those albums I only liked one song from. Never cared much for "Shiny Happy People"* or "Losing My Religion." In fact, I found the whole record pretty dull....

...(wait for it)...

...with one glaring exception. I really dig the album's opener, "Radio Song." It's groovin'.

*I loved hearing Denis Leary talk about "Shiny Happy People." "HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY!!! Pull that bus over to the side of the pretentiousness turnpike, OK? I want the shiny people over here, and the happy people over here! I represent angry gun-toting meat-eating f**kin' people!"

Watch the video for "Radio Song" on YouTube.

Introduction

Some of my online cohorts at the Songfight community decided to create blogs to highlight songs they like. I am now doing it as well, because I am a total lemming.

Songfight is a weekly songwriting competition based on titles provided by the site's administrators. I post there under the handle "Albatross." Go check it out. It's a gas.
