R.E.M. – Get Up Lyrics 10 years ago
It's funny that I take the opposite interpretation from the rest.
I always saw it from a point of view of a person that sees sleep as a waste of time, dreams just a complication, "There's time for sleep when I'm dead" kind of attitude.

R.E.M. – Pop Song 89 Lyrics 10 years ago
I see this song as the shallowness of our society. Considering the depth of so many REM songs, to make a song this vapid makes a solid point.

R.E.M. – You Are The Everything Lyrics 10 years ago
This song has a way of bringing me to tears sometimes. Falling asleep while voices are talking somewhere in the house brings to mind the total trust and feeling of safety we lose as children.
