As soon as I heard the first guitar chords I knew that this is going to be a hell of a song.

It is a classic R.E.M song – compact rock done really well, something we have not heard from them in years. Peter Buck plays powerful guitars while the double-time drum beats pushes this song forward. Michael Stipes’ lead singing is strong and rough and with Mike Mills’s, who shines with his backing vocals on the chorus, the two create a wonderful sound.

This is a brilliant track that brings the best out of all the band’s members.

If you are reading this post using RSS reader/email you probably want to visit my blog in order to listen to the stream.

Enjoy listening or get the song as MP3 on Amazon.
