Trivia
Interesting facts about Daysleeper. By Songfacts.
The lyrics were inspired when lead singer Michael Stipe saw the word "Daysleeper" on the door in an apartment and wondered about the life of the person inside.
This was the first single released off the very experimental Up album. The song was chosen because it was the only thing that sounded anything like the R.E.M. of old.
The lyrics are documenting the nocturnal trials of an international share trader on the verge of a breakdown.
