  • REM you were absolutely brilliant.

    Not even this new greatest hits can truly show you (plus it's got no 'Near Wild Heaven' one of your best songs)

  • @kissarmy110936

    No chance.

  • It's all just art, you don't have to like it, you don't have to hate it. Myself, I love it. Been a fan for nearly all of the 31 years. Too many gems to list, but Shaking Through, Wendell Gee, King of Birds, Untitled (from Green), Half a World Away, Find the River, Crush with Eyeliner, Why Not Smile, I'll Take the Rain, and It Happened Today. Not a hit single among them for REM, but that's a Greatest Hits record for most any other band. I think Nightswimming will be played at my funeral.

  • Bye Bye REM !

  • One of most over rated american band ever in my opinion.

  • I saw them only once, at the Hollywood Bowl in '07, but I had been a fan since Document. After Green they only seemed to tour on every other album so it was hard to see them. They leave a great body of work to go back and listen to and enjoy for a lifetime. Still, I can't wait for the reunion tour.

  • Saw them play a local club in 1982 in front of about 80 people. They were unknown and everyone was blown away by their energy. It was fun watching them evolve into a national act and never really lose their integrity. You will be missed guys. Look forward to the reunion concert in a few years.

  • THANK YOU R.E.M. I got those great songs playin into my life

    it happened that wednesday bye

  • cheers boys

    

  • We will miss you, thank you so much for the life changing tunes!
