🎧 Soaking in my blues some with #REM and not #TheSmiths, because #MichaelStipe is cool and #Morrissey is a fucking #Torie—or worse!
Have you heard?
There's an upside to "All The Way To Reno"—Michael tells me "You're gonna be a star!" over and over, and I'm not above propagandizing myself into a better place.

supergroep #AutomaticBaby met #MichaelStipe en #MikeMills van REM en Adam Clayton, met deze laatste zal hij een tijd de ritmesectie vormen van Nancy Griffith, en is hij in 1995 sessiedrummer op het album van #EmmylouHarris.
Samen met Clayton schrijft hij ook nummers voor de soundtrack van #MissionImpossible uit 1996.
In 2007 werkt hij ook samen met de band #Underworld.
Larry kampt al jaren met rugpijn en artritis en zou in 2023 in Las Vegas vervangen worden door Bram van den Berg van Krezip.

I'm a little late, but my #SongOfTheDay is this jangle-pop gem by #REM and #NatalieMerchant. She sounds wonderful harmonizing with #MichaelStipe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iO2eIebQqWg

My favourite #KristinHersh song by some way. The cello and #MichaelStipe makes this something quite special.
A beautiful song.

Lonnie Holley & Michael Stipe:
🎵 Oh Me Oh My

"I had a mind to try to stop you, let me in"
I know it's a line from a song and I know #michaelstipe wrote it about #kurtcobain but I've always felt weird about it as a thought.
He couldn't let you in. You should have let yourself in. Don't put the responsibility in the hands of the suffering.
(Much longer thoughts coming via blog if I have the spoons soon)

#30DaySongChallenge day 17: A song you'd sing a duet with someone on karaoke.
I searched the tired depths of my brain to come up with a duet that I like singing ... It just happened to be another awesome '90s track.

On this day, January 4, 1960: Michael Stipe was born in Decatur, Georgia.
Today’s soundtrack: REM
Today's video: Stipe's "Drive to the Ocean" - https://bit.ly/2Fj6rJt
Today’s screening: “Athens, GA: Inside/Out,” “The Adventures of Pete & Pete,” wherein we find Stipe as Captain Scrummy serving up the Sludgecicle, and IRS’s “The Cutting Edge.”
Today's photo: c. Frank Bauer
Today’s Stipe quote: “Never eat broccoli when there are cameras around.”
All day I felt like this was an important or special day I should remember, but I could not figure out why. Then, in town, I saw a man who looked a lot like Michael Stipe from REM. Aha! I remembered that it is Michael's birthday. In my twenties and thirties I was super into REM and learned all this random info about them. I still love the band, but a lot of life has happened since those days. Raising a glass to Michael & wishing him many happy returns of the day.
#Music #REM #MichaelStipe
It's #MichaelStipe's birthday today, so bits of REMiana have been floating over the transom, including a ranking of their albums at Consequence of Sound that I take big issue with. So, I had to do my own list:
15. Around the Sun
14. Reveal
13. Up
12. Accelerate
11. Fables
10. Monster
9. Out of Time
8. New Adventures
7. Reckoning
6. Collapse Into Now
5. Life's Rich Pageant
4. Murmur
3. Document
2. Green
1. Automatic
Birth year's usually a factor, I'm 1974.
