Yay...REM is like....one of my favorite bands ever.  If there were any single band to
write the soundtrack of my life, it would be REM!!!  They just make everything in
the world so incredibly wonderfully...happy.  I love that so so so much.  Especially
"Shiney Happy People."  That's one of my favorite songs ever!  I could just lie on
the grass seeing bubbles all around me for hours, listening to that song.  Hey...I
wish I really owned a pretty dress like that.  I should make one.
P.S.--If you can tell me which REM song has an example of a hemiola, you will
win...something...like...the rewarding knowledge that you are not only a fellow
band geek but also an REM geek, just like me!  Hey, I know the answer to that!
