R.E.M. is an American rock band formed in Athens, Georgia, in 1980 by Michael Stipe (lead vocals), Peter Buck (guitar), Mike Mills (bass guitar and backing vocals), and Bill Berry (drums and percussion). R.E.M. was one of the first popular alternative rock bands, and gained early attention due to Buck's ringing, arpeggiated guitar style and Stipe's unclear vocals. R.E.M. released its first single, "Radio Free Europe", in 1981 on the independent record label Hib-Tone. The single was followed by the Chronic Town EP in 1982, the band's first release on I.R.S. Records. In 1983, the band released its critically acclaimed debut album Murmur, and built its reputation over the next few years through subsequent releases, constant touring, and the support of college radio. Following years of underground success, R.E.M. achieved a mainstream hit in 1987 with the single "The One I Love". The group signed to Warner Bros. Records in 1988, and began to espouse political and environmental concerns while playing large arenas worldwide.
By the early 1990s, when alternative rock began to experience broad mainstream success, R.E.M. was viewed as a pioneer of the genre and released its two most commercially successful albums, Out of Time (1991) and Automatic for the People (1992), which veered from the band's established sound. R.E.M.'s 1994 release Monster was a return to a more rock-oriented sound. The band began its first tour in six years to support the album; the tour was marred by medical emergencies suffered by three band members. In 1996, R.E.M. re-signed with Warner Bros. for a reported US$80 million, at the time the most expensive recording contract in history. The following year, Bill Berry left the band, while Buck, Mills, and Stipe continued the group as a three-piece. Through some changes in musical style, the band continued its career into the next decade with mixed critical and commercial success. In 2007, the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Two Princes by Spin Doctors
My first lyrics video. Yeah, yeah, I'm a noob. But seriously, I love my music so I thought I might as well upload some lyrics stuff. So here's my first one. Hope you enjoy it ^^
Lyrics:
Yeah, one, two, princes kneel before you
That's what I said now
Princes, Princes who adore you
Just go ahead now
One has diamonds in his pockets
That's some bread now
This one said he wants to buy you rockets
Ain't in his head now
Yeah (scat)
This one got a princely racket
That's what I said now
Got some big seal up on his jacket
Ain't in his head now
You marry him, your father will condone you
How 'bout that now?
You marry me, your father will disown you
He'll eat his hat now
Marry him? Or marry me?
I'm the one who loves you, baby, can't you see
I ain't got no future or family tree but
I know what a princely lover ought to be
I know what a princely lover ought to be
Said if you want to call me baby
Just go ahead now
And if you like to tell me maybe
Just go ahead now
And if you wanna buy me flowers
Just go ahead now
And if you'd like to talk for hours
Just go ahead now
Said, one, two Princes kneel before you
That's what I said now
Princes, Princes who adore you
Just go ahead now
One has diamonds in his pockets
That's some bread now
This one, he wants to buy you rockets
Ain't in his head now
Marry him? Or marry me?
I'm the one who loves you, baby, can't you see
I ain't got no future or family tree but
I know what a princely lover ought to be
I know what a princely lover ought to be
Said if you want to call me baby
Just go ahead now
And if you like to tell me maybe
Just go ahead now
And if you want to buy me flowers
Just go ahead now
And if you'd like to talk for hours
Just go ahead now
And if you want to call me baby
Just go ahead now
And if you like to tell me maybe
Just go ahead now
And if you like to buy me flowers
Just go ahead now
And if you'd like to talk for hours
Just go ahead now
If you want to call me baby
Just go ahead now
And if you'd like to tell me maybe
Just go ahead now
If you want to buy me flowers
Just go ahead now
And if you'd like to talk for hours
Just go ahead now
Oh-o-o-o-oh baby
Just go ahead now
Oh-o-o-oh just- just-...go ahead now
Just go ahead now
Oh-o-o-oh your majesty
Just go ahead now
Come one, forget the king and marry me
Just go ahead now
Come on, come on, come and (just go ahead now) go ahead now
Ye-e-a-ah (just go ahead now)
And if you want to bu-u-uy me flowers
Just go ahead now
And just go ahead now baby
Just go ahead now
