Yup, that's REM, "Pop Song 89"
> #81. They threw an American flag in our face
"Allentown" by Billy Joel
>#86. Everything you do is quite angelicate. (The Cure?)
You're right on this one too. It's "Why Can't I be You?" by the Cure.
There are several other lines that sound familiar, and I know I should be able
to identify them, but these were the only three that jumped out at me. Hope it
helps.
