Default R.E.M. Überlin
I love the song and the video is extremely clever, I think. I have enjoyed R.E.M. since the late 80s, but so much of their melancholy really reverbs these days unfortunately.

This is not melancholy though, I don't think. It starts out mundane and leaps to profound.

Or that is my take.
