“Carnival of Sorts”, R.E.M.

This way: Carnival of Sorts

This is not a perfect album, it's really an EP, but the gems shine hard. This song is a real beauty. It really isn't any kind earth shatter maker, but it is just enough. Great songwritin' chops show thru. It was a record that needed to be made. Launched a thousand bands not unlike the Velvets did with their debut. This record is 40 years old this year so cheers to that and the start of a long and fruitful career. What are these songs about? Still have no clue.
