I was about to ask if this was a different version.  I like the (remix?) better, actually.

Agreed, and had anyone ever heard that REM tune on the radio before?  I sure hadn't.

Ditto2. and I'd consider the Bowie a rarity too -- that's 3 rarities out of 5 songs so far.

I gotta hand it to the Stones: it would have been so easy for this to sound phoned-in, and it doesn't.  It'd be a few years before they started going through the (mixed e-) motions.

Dave plays that quite often, including the last time he went to '82 three weeks ago.

ETA: well, maybe not often, but occasionally for sure.

It's sympathy not jeers people need, when they're the front-page sad news.

This Bonnie Raitt song's opening sounded a LOT like Raydio's "Jack and Jill."

You mean Richard Butler?

Weirdest & most physiologically unlikely lyric of the set: "swallow all your tears my love".

The Furs are for me a real anomaly.  "The Ghost In You", as well-documnted on our boards over the years, is one of my most favorite songs of the decade, but considering the longevity of their career they failed to produce even one other song that I can get excited about.

Anyone else have any similar examples?  Just curious.

Several.  First that comes to mind is Grand Funk's "Bad Time."

Oh, not at all, I'm afraid.  Would get 2 stars on my iTunes if I owned it.  (1 is only for my worst-ofs, which would include at least one or two GFRs.)
