  1. Just out of interest (and a serious question) what do you call that style of hat? I've always liked it.

     

    I honestly don't know, but this entry on a blog post may offer some clues:

     

    "Sunday was the Wilco show and as I already mentioned, quite amazing (...) My only argument is that Jeff Tweedy's hat was NOT a fedora. My friendship with Andrea at Village Hat Shop taught me basic hat 101, and I think it was actually a cowboy hat".

    (in the comments section it says that Tweedy's hat is a "homburg") :)

  2. "I Believe" = 1-20.

     

    Sorry I didn't get this when you posted it, several days later I'm assimilating the idea :)

     

    Yes, "I Believe" is a great song, it's among my top 5.

     

     

    just to be clear, I'd be ok with this. I get your point, but REM has made some tremendous crap since Out of Time.

     

    I think the best album they ever made was after Out of Time, it's called New Adventures in Hi-Fi. With the exception of a very long song which can be annoying at times, everything in that album was perfect, mesmerizing, starting with a beautiful album cover, very cool inserts and promotional materials, outstanding pop songs well ahead of their time. They were very well into their thirties so this probably explains the maturity of the songwriting.

  3. In the last week I've listened to Murmur, Reckoning, Fables, Out of Time, Monster, Hifi, Up, Accelerate, Collapse and the 3 new songs on Part Lies... and thoroughly enjoyed them all.

     

    It's a good thing that you dusted off those albums!

     

    Of the three new songs I think we all go back to where we belong is the best.

     

     

    um.. no Radio Song?

     

    sorry, not a fan of Out of Time. Like lizish, I seldom listen to it.

  4. Crow Daddy Magnus® I understand your disdain, given the many mistakes and the various events surrounding the band's history.

     

    And while I understand your disdain I don't have to relate to it.

     

     

    p.s. It's the first anniversary of R.E.M.'s disbandment.

  5. I do love NAIHF, so many good songs... it comes and goes out of my top 3 REM albums. Sometimes I find that it's just a couple of songs too long. And Leave... I have to be in the right mood to put up with 7 minutes of those 'sirens'.

     

    I might attempt an REM albums ranking in the next couple of days

     

    an album ranking is a good idea. I look forward to it.
