REM played Colbert last night. They played a song about crying. It's new, pretty blah, and I wish I'd never heard it. Not because I'm afraid to cry (ahem, x-tian), but because Michael, Peter and Michael look to be about 70 years old (on average - Stipe looks 90, the others look 60). McCain old. Grim Reaper old.
So now I'm old, which sucks. I remember when Swan Swan Hummingbird was sung by cool people. I realize now this is not at all different than remembering when a Happy Meal was $.05. At worst, this makes me a grumpy old man, and at best, just old. I can listen to all the cool new kids I can find, but until I forget that Life's Rich Pageant rocked, I'm stuck.
Thankfully I've got this blog to make me cool - right Manolo?
