When I was a freshman in college, our alternative music club, had REM come play. At the time, their first EP had just come out, and there were probably only 100 of us there. It was great.Jaye Robin Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03929739858812153990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3801207462566510326.post-47631024701841167412012-04-20T06:58:37.742-07:002012-04-20T06:58:37.742-07:00Love R.E.M.!

So R.E.M always remind me of her, which isn't a bad thing. On a more upbeat note, here's some misheard lyrics for Losing My Religion: Let's pee in the corner, Let's pee in the spotlight ... heheheJessica Bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10889900730906728317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3801207462566510326.post-25856069859652754852012-04-20T06:25:31.635-07:002012-04-20T06:25:31.635-07:00R.E.M. reminds me of my childhood.
