...irrationally on the intrinsic faults of innocent locales ("Southern California is bad for the soul") before grudgingly returning to the self: "how can I shield myself from the things that I hear?/I want to close my eyes and sleep for a year." The arrangement, mixing bongos and warm organ tones with Hatfield's melancholy guitar strumming, manages to sound simultaneously spare and rich--a rare achievement and testament to Hatfield's songwriting prowess...

By high school, he was performing organ transplants and heart-valve replacements in dogs. At 17 he was a semifinalist in the national Westinghouse science competition for his research on the damage done to red blood cells in patients with heart-valve replacements. That year he was accepted in a University of Michigan six-year program that offered degrees in biomedical science and medicine...
