alright... I'm falling in love with this R.E.M. album me... It's just like old R.E.M. albums that I slowly fell in love with me....me...me...me.... why not? why? I don't know. It's just happening.... it's different from past R.E.M. albums, but that same slow love affair that grows more with familiarity and listening... listen... grow... me. I hated it... I hated it's slow forced melodies... I find me after a while of it.... me... why? I don't want my music to be that... so? who cares... I don't have to be that... My friend is still there though. I am still watching and listening to every friend the same way... doesn't matter how different... I'm still watching and I like.
