Nobody has made the connection to the book Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. It's a cornerstone of the new right, which also connects with another cipher suggesting Ted Cruz and Greg Abbott. Also, as a UCSC alum where I saw REM at the Catalyst in the summer of 1984, my mascot is a Banana Slug 🍌

Another aspect f it is that there is an intro part that is not part of the official lyrics. They wanted it to sound like a live tune and asked the audience to shout, "Do the Brown Nose" and they do so with enthusiasm. He says that's bad and asks them to do it again and they do so with great annoyance. He says that's much better. The liner notes of the song state it was recorded live in Owl's Eye, Alberta Canada on Feb. 31, 1964. I also remember another line from the song that's not part of...

i think this song is about ellie wanting her relationship to never end!

i think the song is about mourning the end of a relationship that they miss so deeply that it hurts, and it connotes themes of self harm.

i think this song describes a relationship that seems to be going well but goes downhill, but after that it gets better and truly “anything could happen” after it!

What a powerful song.
What a powerful song.
you're no good is very clearly about someone with depression and how they let misery consume their life. it's to the point where it gets in the way of being in a happy relationship. the singer falls into a deeper depression and develops suicidal tendencies (downright trying to commit via car crash) this misery is "personified" by sascha's lines. most would assume this is who the you're no good part is directed to but the singer is talking about themself. wallowing in misery and self loathing the singer only reiterates these negative feelings and never moves past them
