I am 75 years old, and I didn't pay much attention to R.E.M. in the day, even though I lived only a few miles from Athens, GA. I was more into the B52s. I have rediscovered R.E.M. and their songs. They produced such great music. You never know how your attitudes will change as you get older. I wish I had seen them live.

As a Muslim from the Middle East, it is through the brilliantly crafted songs of R.E.M that I first became exposed to the greatness of Western culture. R.E.M songs remind me of the happy times of my childhood when optimism ruled the day. Things have changed for the worse since then, but I will always have R.E.M hits to fall back on.
Thank you Michael Stipe for brilliant works of art! I'll be forever grateful.

My younger brother committed suicide last weekend by overdosing on something. He was found with headphones on, presumably listening to something. This is his youtube account. He made a playlist containing 6 songs that was edited the day he passed. This is one of the 6 songs. With the method he used, he was dead after about 30 minutes, probably unconscious around 12 minutes. I like to think that it was peaceful for him with his music on. I love you Myles, I'll miss you everyday for the rest of my life..

My best friend in school sand this song in front of everyone.. we were 15 at that time.. He died in an accident when he was 23.
So this song brings good memories.. friendship, teenager times where we didn't know anything about taxes, bills to pay and politics.. we were full of dreams at that time.. 😊
God bless you, my friend

I was always a HUGE REM fan from the early 80's. I got married in 92 when I was 33. This album came out a week before our wedding. We drove out to Calfornia, we live in Iowa. 2 weeks. This played (AUTOMATIC FOR THE PEOPLE) about half the time we were in the car. My wife passed away about 5 years ago. Still think of her deeply when I hear any of this album. Especially NIGHT SWIMMING. Miss you Teresa.
