This is the song that broke R.E.M. into the big time... before this, they were just an alternative college circuit band... this really is a great song...

so "every waking hour, choosing my confessions" is also a southern expression?
I don't know, but maybe he is playing with the ambivalent meaning of that expression "loosing my religion"?

Oops, I was enjoying it until you told me what I should think. I'll try to get it right on my own next time - can't expect you to always be available for help. |

I love old REM but this makes Barry Manilow sound like Bethoven.

I agree. I have been a fan of theirs since '82 (seriously), and when this came out I felt they had "shifted gears" into a whole new level of excellence. Just an unbelievable song.  |

I agree with what others here have said; this was one of R.E.M.'s finest moments. Unoverplayable.
