I always loved the lyrics to this. Thanks.


You're welcome. Glad you liked it.

This version is working fine for me, thanks for the note.

It's not dead, but it came from the official Warner Bros. YouTube channel, which once again leads me to believe that YouTube is complicit in regional blocking with the corporate giants. I just replaced it with a Yahoo! version, so hopefully it works. Please give me feedback one way or another.

was just wondering the same thing.

i know it's a common enough name, but the association would be inevitable to anyone who knows the name of more than one member of REM.

Drug induced sleep can be of two varieties, (1) "drug assisted" (mostly benzodiazepines, like lorazepam (Ativan), or imidazopyridines, like Zolpidem (Ambien), and (2) true "general anesthesia." Benzos assist sleep but because they are potent amnestics, one is less likely to remember a dream, even if you had one. Melatonin is not a benzo. It is an endogenous hormone, produced by the pineal gland. Melatonin is involved in regulating circadian rhythms, although it is not the main determinate. High doses of melatonin seem to be associated with more REM sleep and more dreaming.

"General Anesthesia" is not normal sleep and, rather, is unconsciousness produced by specific inhibition of neuronal communication (synapsis), whether by inactivation of protein channels on cell membranes, or by inhibition of GABA receptors, (a neurotransmitter). Deep levels of general anesthesia can flat-line your EEG, meaning your brain is totally shut down and is doing no synaptic work at all.
However, people may do normal sleeping after recovery from general anesthesia and they do occasionally relate dreaming during the period of recovery. In particular, the sedative/anesthetic Propofol is associated with some "erotic" dreaming and I have had some people relate rather vivid and interesting content. I had one older gentlemen who wanted to be put "back to sleep" so he could continue his "relations" with Gina Lollibrigida.

I'm impressed and confused by how 640 News - an AM radio station, shows up as one of the first on Google News. Canada anyway.

Obama vs. Huckabee. Wow. It's the battle of the 'underdogs' I think many were hoping would occur but didn't think would happen. Definitely interesting.

I thought it was just going to be REM's music set to political vids. What a pleasant surprise.

Nice, Lily Tomlin, C3P0 and R2D2, Harry Belefonte, and REM!

Insipid. Makes me think of the Dennis Leary bit " I want the shiny people over here, and the happy people over there, because I represent the angry shotgun toting meat eating people" Ooh someone post that. I'm an a$$hole?"
