Want to read what Matthew “Fluxblog” Perpetua has to say about every R.E.M. song ever? Click here. Pop Songs 07 is apparently one among many so-called “oeuvreblogs,” or blogs that write about the music of one particular band or artist. It almost makes me want to start one for Ryan Adams, but I suppose I can just keep writing about him right here, eh guys?

Speaking of which – there are a pair of Japan-only Easy Tiger bonus tracks floating around and one of them, “Alice,” is the prettiest song he’s done in quite a while. With just a single guitar to back Ryan’s soft, trembling voice, it’s also the simplest, showcasing the man’s sheer songwriting and performative abilities.
