Not the biggest fan of Stipe's politics, but at their best they were one of the best American bands going for over two decades.
It is my firm belief that Daysleeper is the single song that best defines the modern American condition.
R.E.M. Daysleeper - YouTube Hmm, working at night with Japanese influences. Never have been very bright, sorry.
They've got a whole bunch of songs that, when hearing them on the radio, make me say, "Turn it up, I like this one," and then 30 seconds later say, "You can change it, it isn't as good as I remembered."
kind of liked them a little til i saw them live...terrible. haven't listened to them since. i think that was 95...
Me neither, I've just heard them a lot here lately for some reason. Didn't know if one of the band members died or something.
