| R.E.M. – Summer Turns To High Lyrics | 5 years ago |
| As a slow motion bridge from Imitation to Chorus and containing the word “high” again paired with the theme summer, there probably isn’t much extra to read into this song. The band wanted a relaxed recording process and a warm body of songs. The visual cues are sweet and natural. The song perfectly fits inside the album like the spleen you rarely think about. The beginning seems like a child avoiding shadow stepping (and chickenpox?) but soon there is drinking involved. Summer brings us back to childhood like a snowball fight or a jump in some leaves. Don’t think too much here. Get your b-side ears on. It’s slow and pretty. | |
