The prompt is Horrible
R.E.M. “Man on the Moon” from Automatic For The People, 1992

Lyrics:
Moses went walking with the staff of wood
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Newton got beaned by the apple good
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Egypt was troubled by the horrible asp
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mister Charles Darwin had the gall to ask
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

On Automatic for the People, #REM continued with acoustic artistry rivaling that achieved on their masterpiece “Losing My Religion" paired with offbeat subject matter - here, the late actor/performance artist #AndyKaufman, embracing the question raised by Kaufman's performance, and his very life: What is real?

Throughout the song #MichaelStipe sketches vignettes from Kaufman’s professional life, but in the lyrics quoted above, Stipe invokes biblical and historical scientific figures; is he elevating Kaufman to their stature, or just demonstrating his signature non sequitur technique?

Because I have been thinking a lot the last couple days about 2020, and because I always welcome more Michael Stipe, here's a throwback to the only single I can remember ever putting on an AOTY list.

Obviously, there's at least one other notable vocalist on this track. I gather it's #AshaBhosle, but I haven't double-checked to be sure. Anyway, I found this one in the credit roll for Bulletproof Monk, an awful (if at least a bit affable) movie that I caught for free on Bounce like six months ago. I clearly lead a life of danger, lol. I'm not sure yet how well I like it, but I'm giving it some time.
