Mmmm...You're so pretty
Not to talk to you would be a crime
Let me put my arms around you
Just wanna use up a little of your time
And I'm going...
Baby baby baby
Baby baby baby
Baby baby baby
Won't you be my girl?
You're eyes, they're so pretty
The clothes you wear, so fine
Won't you come around to my place
Just wanna use up a little of your time
And I'm going...
Baby baby baby
Baby baby baby
Baby baby baby
Won't you be my girl?
Come on, come on, come on

Baby Baby - R.E.M.
Released on the landmark 1991 album Out Of Time, "Baby Baby" stands as a defining track in R.E.M.'s evolution from alternative rock to a more polished, pop-infused sound. The song features the band's signature layered harmonies and driving guitar work, yet it adopts a warmer, more melodic approach compared to their earlier, grittier recordings. Its inclusion on Out Of Time signaled a pivotal shift in the group's musical direction, bridging the gap between their indie roots and mainstream accessibility. The track remains a staple of the album's legacy, showcasing the band's ability to craft lush, atmospheric pop-rock that resonated deeply with audiences during the early 1990s.
