...songs rock from start to finish. The best track, “Supernatural Superserious,” sounds like a lost ’90s classic. Despite its dopey title, the verses’ chiming guitar refrain and the infectious chorus make it the catchiest, most ecstatic tune R.E.M. has produced in the last decade. The album’s primary challenge is overcoming a sense of incompleteness.

...that he thought it no surprise that both of the Democratic presidential candidates beat McCain in the poll. “Obama is defined as the candidate of the future and a representative of the younger generation,” Zafran said. “He is more in tune with student opinion today, which is why he would consider controlling the cost of higher education as a higher priority.” But Harvard Republican Club President Caleb L.
