Question: In the song "Felt like a Lifetime" by Better Than Ezra what R.E.M. song is that about? Just wondering which song by R.E.M. that they are talking about in this song. thanks!

Answer: The REM song is "Talk About the Passion." Kevin obsessed over REM, and so would his group of friends in HS. It is also that old of a song. Kevin started the band in college in 1989, so a song like "everybody hurts" would be too new. Plus it is 3:23.
