Subject: Early R.E.M. poll (80's only)

Written By: AmericanGirl on 09/20/07 at 7:51 pm

I'm picking 'Other' right away.  I first took notice of R.E.M. via a sleeper (if I remember right it had an interesting video) called 'Fall On Me'.  So that's my pick.  But I really like the others!  Pick your favorite.  :)

Ooh, I love "Fall On Me" but I picked "Fireplace" from Document No. 5

'Stand', the only 80s REM song I really would call a favourite.  I liked 'So. Central Rain', but not one I would listen to by choice

My absolute favorite,  must dance to, must thrash to, must slam dance to REM song is "These Days" from the "Life's Rich Pageant" album.  It wasn't released as a single.  Take the lp out right now (I know you have it) and listen to it.  If you don't jump up and start dancing,  you are numb.
