6073. R.E.M. - Drive

From: Automatic for the People; Year: 1992; Genre: Alternative Rock
Last night while trying to sleep this song kept playing in my mind, thus keeping me awake. So, I of course looked it up, which seemed to make it subside for the night.
Anyway, this is one of those song that I have a lot of memories tied to, being that it was part of a formative era for me personally. I have always love how R.E.M. just kinda just did what they wanted and just so happened to tap into a huge part of the listening public. Drive is one of their tracks that really exemplifies this mode of thought in a way as a call to action to take your life into your own hands and live you life the way you really would want to.
