Hey Andy, did you hear about this one? Tell me, are you locked in the punch?
Hey Andy, are you goofing on Elvis? Hey baby, are we losing touch?

If you believed they put a man on the moon, man on the moon
If you believe there's nothing up my sleeve, then nothing is cool
If you believed they put a man on the moon, man on the moon
If you believe there's nothing up my sleeve, then nothing is cool
If you believed they put a man on the moon, man on the moon
If you believe there's nothing up my sleeve, then nothing is cool

Uno de mis temas favoritos de REM.
Confío en que un día vuelvan, aunque desde luego no será pronto.

También es una de mis favoritas. Y bueno... Ya le dediqué una entrada en Exquisiteces este viernes. Gracias por comentar. Pero te suplicaría que la próxima vez que comentes en THE SONGBOOK lo hicieses en Inglés. Si no sabes Inglés, no pasa nada. Tienes la opción de comentar en castellano clicando la palabra HERE del final del post y te redirecciona a otro sitio donde recogemos los comentarios en castellano. Aquí solo recogemos los comentarios en Inglés. GRACIAS POR TU COMPRENSIÓN.
En la página de Facebook de THE SONGBOOK si que se recogen comentarios en ambos idiomas.
