Does it say something about Hootie, or something about R.E.M., that the shorthand indicating the girlfriend is emotionally damaged, too complicated for a straight-ahead guy like Hootie, and just plain edgy, is that she likes R.E.M.? (If it helps, remember that this song comes out in 1994, when R.E.M. was coming off two platinum albums, and was temporarily about as alternative as Sheryl Crow.)
