So what are the REM songs you are listening to as a result of the draft?
Of the songs that have been drafted so far:
Ignoreland (had it on repeat for hours after Lucky picked it)
So. Central Rain (kinda knew I wasn't going to be able to find room)
Driver 8 (never gets old)
Nightswimming (one of the best ever climaxes to a pop song ... I think it's a clarinet, it's not deep enough to be an oboe. My favorite song ending is 1979 by The Smashing Pumpkins ... both have orchestral climaxes)
Perfect Circle
... the latest ... Try Not To Breathe ... totally forgot about that. Great little song.
Ignoreland
So. Central Rain
Nightswimming
Find the River
King of Birds
Perfect Circle
have pretty much been in constant rotation since the draft started.
Oh and one other one that is still out there that I'm hoping to take with my next pick.
I've been cramming like this is an exam. I have now listened to Murmur and Accelerate and one of their greatest hits.I also listened to the three albums I own. I must say, you guys have failed to pick some really good songs and picked some not so good ones.
Considering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?
Anytime you have a music draft you're going to have a lot of subjectivity in terms of what is good and what is not so good though. At least with R.E.M. the ones that I feel are "not so good" are still pretty damned good.

LOL...I was just goofing around anyway.

I finally got the video to Shiny Happy People posted...so you all can enjoy Ms. Pierson.

I thought you guys would have lapped me twice, was pretty pleased to see that was not the case. I'll confess, Fables is my favorite REM album

FB, if you want to send me a list I'll be happy to make picks for you. I won't read ahead or anything. I'll be around all week because the wife is out of town on business so I'm homebound with the little one.
I was so close to taking 'Finest Worksong' this round and based on the crickets after my last pick, I probably chose unwisely.
If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.
