REM

cea mai mare trupa rock in viata din america
ne-o pregateste la anu' in martie, de un nou album:
COLLAPSE INTO NOW

pana acum REM ne-au obisnuit, dincolo de sound, cu versuri deloc banale, ce transmit mesaje uneori consistente, uneori ironice ce nu pot fi luate in seama,
alteori insa, cu trecerea timpului capatand alte intelesuri.

apropo de versuri, ce mi se pare interesant este ca (tot uneori :)
pot aparea similititudini sau coincidente cu povesti cunoscute...


1. "Outsiders"



You took me to the restaurant where we first met
You knocked a future shock crowbar upside my head
I got caught with the stop of the tick-tock, tick-tock clock
When you told me what you knew
Lost in the moment
The day that the music stopped...


2. "Bittersweet Me"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-R2hvKDFLHE&feature=related

You strip down and lay yourself out,
I know you can't fake it,
But are you tired and naked?

3. "E-bow the letter"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cnIQHJ169s&feature=channel

Are you?
Dreaming of Maria Callas, whoever she is
This fame thing, I don't get it
I wrap my hand in plastic to try to look through it
Maybelline eyes and girl-as-boy moves
I can take you far
This star thing, I don't get it

4. "The Great Beyond"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_JnCWT-_O8

I'm pushing an elephant up the stairs
I'm tossing up punchlines that were never there
Over my shoulder a piano falls
Crashing to the ground

5."Man on the Moon"



Moses went walking with the staff of wood.
Newton got beaned by the apple good.
Egypt was troubled by the horrible asp.
Mister Charles Darwin had the gall to ask.

6. "Nightswimming"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahJ6Kh8klM4&feature=related



Nightswimming, remembering that night
September's coming soon
I'm pining for the moon
And what if there were two
Side by side in orbit
Around the fairest sun?
That bright, tight forever drum
Could not describe, nightswimming

7. "The sidewinder slepps tonite"



Baby, instant soup doesn't really grab me.
Today I need something more sub-sub-sub-substantial.
A can of beans or blackeyed peas, some Nescafe and ice,
A candy bar, a falling star, or a reading of Doctor Seuss;

8. "All the way to Reno"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHlpWokiduk

Wing
Is written on your feet
Your achilles heel
Is a tendenc
To dream
But you've know that from the beginning
You didn't have to go so far
You didn't have to go

9. "Find the River"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIJGlTu5sEI

Me, my thoughts are flower strewn
Ocean storm, bayberry moon
I have got to leave to find my way
Watch the road and memorize
This life that pass before my eyes
Nothing is going my way

10. "Electrolite"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1LewYq40Svw

If I ever want to fly
Mulholland Drive
I am alive
Hollywood is under me
I'm Martin Sheen
I'm Steve McQueen
I'm Jimmy Dean
