1. Nightswimming – R.E.M. – The brilliance isn’t in the piano, isn’t even ifm Stipe’s eye for detail, never more telling, never more sinked in desire, or the strings. All good but what makes it great is the strange way it becomes an ode to nostalgia -it is filled with hidden longings and hidden regrets: it is all about yesterday.
