the end of the world as we know it

R.E.M., one of all-time favorite bands, is breaking up. So sad, so sad. I've been a fan for over twenty years now, it kind of hurts to think there'll never be a new album, especially since the last one they seemed to be going back to their college-rocks roots and getting away from the dreary slow stuff they'd been doing lately. I even loved the stupid stuff, like Shiny Happy People and Radio Song.
Well, I lost Oingo Boingo in 1995, and now there's only They Might Be Giants out of my holy trinity . . . that's gonna be a sad day when they, too, hang up the accordion and glockenspiel.
The reason I had a terrible crush on Michael Stipe when I was a younger fiend . . . well damn, he quite the prettyboy back in the day! All that floofy bronze hair *droooool*: http://youtu.be/HGiNVZvEnZE
Still one of the finest music videos ever made. It's arty!

I saw R.E.M. for the first time during the Monster tour. I might be weird/gross but I think Michael is more attractive now, especially when he puts on a suit as he's so prone to do these days.
Yeah, he's still interesting looking. I've kind of gotten over my of my childish crushes, except for one. I've got my own real-life awesome hot dude now - that helps XD
Sad, but it seems like something that needed to happen.
I always loved "loosing my religion" I liked it when I first heard it... but then, when I got to go diving in the Caribbean, our lil pagoda bar had just one "American mix tape" lol. Loosing my Religion was one of em in a very short list, so... lotsa repetition lol.
so, now due to that conditioning, that sound brings forth salty-sweet air, pina coladas... oooooooh life. it's bigger.
