4.37/365: turn you inside-out

I’ve always loved this song. It’s my top big song on R.E.M.’s Green album. It’s just grand. It has Peter Buck’s great guitar work, where he’s stepped out of his jangly-guitar (which I love) and has guest drumming from Keith Leblanc along with Billy Berry. The drums are forward and is great. It’s a good song to play loud. My other three favorite songs on Green are softer, so this one is a big wow of a song.

This is also kind of a threatening song (which is awesome). “I could turn you inside-out/
What I choose not to do.” I could, but I chose not to. But I could. Oh, I could.

If I had a nickel…

This has been in my head for several days, so I’m giving it to you.
