A dream of Monkee
Special K: https://www.stereogum.com/2236106/micky-dolenz-rem-covers-shiny-happy-people/music/?fbclid=IwAR3r9Qp3EYeW7kIem_Rt9NY2cRXWTdyj6eUQImvsUS97BrZzTu2ROE1XC6U
b1-66er: Okay, Special K ...
... There's a lot to unpack here.
K: Yes.
b1: 1. When I was a kid, MD was my favorite Monkee. (Ringo was my favorite Beatle. Tin Man was my favorite WoO character.)
I've churned a bit over time, but as an adult
as an adult my ordering is
Mike Nesmith
George Harrison
Cowardly Lion
2. I considered SHP to be amongst the lamest REM songs. Right down there with "Stand."
I'm fact, Mr Stipe couldn't believe they'd done it on release. "Did we just make a pop song?"
3. The original had a B-52.
Mr. Dolenz should've found a woman from his home town to cover the female vocals. Maybe even a kid to make the median age still correct?
4. This song/vid is > the REM original.
5. 6. He should record a commentary track with the video.
That would be super interesting.

Turns out... it's a piece of plastic with moisture trapped beneath. Or... litter being its best self... cough cough cough.
b1-66er: I guess showing there truly IS beauty in everything, depending on the way you perceive.

A little towering
The Dear Hunter: This isn't a pretty mushroom but I've not seen them before. This is my second. It's on my property line. I put bottle in for scale.

b1-66er: That qualifies as 'giant' in my book.
DH: It's the tallest for sure.

Under the blade
b1-66er
b1-67er: In a way the process worked. The blades were inspected and a defect was detected. Then a judgement call was made, in retrospect the wrong one. I think you lower your tolerance for defects and move on.
