C&L's Late Night Music Club with R.E.M.
(guest blogged by Howie Klein)
Tonight we have an awesome 2004 live performance in D.C. of R.E.M. doing "Man on the Moon" with special guest-- The Boss.
And here's a somewhat related song for you to puzzle over-- but to puzzle over with a purpose. Listen and figure it out.

What song is it? Who wrote it? Who performed it originally? And who's performing it here as a CROOKS AND LIARS LATE NITE MUSIC CLUB exclusive? That's right, no one has ever heard this before. But the person who can best figure it out in the comments section is going to win a super-duper REM prize. And when John and I say "super-duper," we mean you win something you can't just waltz into K-Mart and buy. I'd rather keep it a surprise but John's making me spit it out. The winner gets a library of R.E.M. CDs that we picked out for you including some special collectible treats courtesy of our pals at R.E.M.'s record label. John will announce the winner tomorrow night.
