The harpsichord is such a lovely instrument, it's a shame I only associate it with overly pompous and snobby caricatures now in c/chapotraphouse@hexbear.net

Half A World Away by REM has a superb harpsichord part that comes in about the one minute mark.

The arrangement in this song is so good... harpsichord, organ, violin, and the vocals... beautifully melancholy
