All this Air Supply talk had me thinking about this old Peach of Immortality
record I would see around Washington, DC in the early 1980s:



REM is Air Supply, indeed. Fuck both those shitty bands.

1. The emperor has no clothes
I've never been able to tolerate REM (except in 1/2 song doses). They're the most overrated rock band of the 80s. Thankfully they've all but faded into irrelevance.

3. The primary difference between the two...
Is how many hours I could go without screaming if trapped in a room with their music piped in. I could last through an hour of REM before I'd start climbing the walls and screaming for help. (I actually have a couple of their songs, Orange Crush is still a favorite, and Radio Free Europe.)

15 minutes of Air Supply would reduce me to a blubbering, vengeful fiend. Might as well play some Michael Bolton and just drive me all the rest of the way crazy.
