R.E.M. Accelerate Tour Set List 09.26.08 Bologna, Italy
I want pepper in my coffee every night. “Circus Envy,” boys and girls! This is a strong set, but unfortunately “She Just Wants To Be” is still part of it. One loyal reader has told me this one is better live than I might think and that may be, but it’s still not a real song. I’ve been very enthusiastic about R.E.M.’s set lists night in and night out because the ratio of song:not song has been so wonderfully balanced, but “She Just Wants To Be” just has to go.

I think she just wants to be is a great song; one of the bests of reveal. Live version is still betterhttp:

I would like Fall on me rather than just a touch. why do they havent play I believe yet?
Thanks for the shout-out.
See javicuesta’s link and judge for yourself. I never thought much of the song until I saw it live and was committed. It also taught me to appreciate the original a little more.
