REM - the lifting demo, 2003

"Originally released as the opening song on their 2001 album Reveal, the demo appeared in 2003 on the compilation In Time: The Best of R.E.M. 1988-2003 (Rarities and B-Sides). It's a more stripped-down, haunting take compared to the polished album version, featuring a slower tempo, acoustic elements, and slight lyrical tweaks (e.g., the album version omits the line "You think you've felt the lifting" from the demo)."
