How odd....something Pat Brown and I agree on...is this the start of a new era?

I used to love to listen to REM's Automatic while driving the Pine tree lined highways of Fort Bragg while living in North Carolina.    It filled an empty spot. 

Nowadays I like REM's video/song to All The Way To Reno (You're Gonna to Be a Star) from the Reveal CD - it seems to be telling all the kids in the video to be who you are and be comfortable with it. 

Also like their new one too...
