Yessir.This is a great album.The big one was the single Losing My Religion which
is good but by no means the only good one which you will keep rewinding and forwarding to.All right, it starts with the
aggro rocker Radio Song with a rap from some rapper(KRS-1 to be exact).One of R.E.M's high points is Michael Stipe's
voice.Another is their jangly guitars(bass is not given emphasis) coupled with good songwriting abilities.Well at
least on this album.
1 week later.
Sorry but had to go and I didn't have the time to finish the review at that point of time.
Yeah well i don't have the time now also so i guess I will have to resort to doing it like this
Best songs-Losing My Religion,Near Wild Heaven,Country Feedback
Boring songs-Low
And the rest are Ok.Endgame is good .You experience REM soon after hearing that song!
A Rewrite Again!All right, I want to do the thing properly this time.I just don't have the time right now but I have decided
to take time off from integration and diffrenciation(Calculus it's called)to round this off personally 'cause i read
the above and realised it sounded rather empty.Sounded like I was recommending people to download mp3's using P2P.(heard about
the court ruling against Grokster?I hate these things.I mean people trying to curb the freedom of the net.Imagine the companies
controlling the net.They wouldn't allow people like us to write reviews on their records.I mean not bad reviews.We would have
to give a record deserving F an A and write good things about everybody.No critical analysis ,no truthfulness, nothing.Just
like when companies lie about their product.And to predict doomsday one day I predict that the whole internet will be
controlled by companies.Pay for getting on to different sites,pay for using an e-mail with storage space of 2mb,,damn it!Fuck
all the companies damn it! )
Well I was talking about R.E.M wasn't I.Well you know what?The album is good and all of you know that and i am not
feeling too analytical tonight so goodnight and may you go to hell.
Florentin Machaievali once said(I don't remember the exact statement but i know the gist of it) " I would prefer
to go to hell rather then heaven.In the former place I would have the company of kings,dukes,baron,monks etc.. while
in the latter i would be in the company of beggars,labourers etc....."
I was paying everybody a compliment,don't you idiots understand anything?
