5 out of 5 stars Typically Great R.E.M. B-Sides   October 5, 2004
Memphis Evans (St. Louis Park, MN United States)
4 out of 4 found this review helpful

If you like R.E.M. you've already heard and bought the title track, probably on the special edition of In Time: Best of 1988-2003. So did I. The question for me then was do the B-Sides (an arcane term now I guess) make this single worth buying. The answer is a resounding yes. br / br /The first two songs are covers, done in a very enjoyable style reminiscent of great R.E.M. cover B-sides of the past. (Wall of Death, First We Take Manhattan, etc.) "Favorite Writer" is a great pop song featuring very sad, tragic words juxtaposed with tremendously happy music. "Out in the Country" is sung by either Mike Mills (possibly his voice has changed a little since we last heard him sing a lead?) or a guest vocalist. There are some tricky rhythmic things happening. "Adagio" is a slow orchestral instrumental that would have fit well on the "Man in the Moon" soundtrack album. br / br /The title song is great, and the 3 non-album tracks make this single a great value for the money. It's the perfect R.E.M. CD Single! (One of many)

I just recently listened to these songs, and I fell in love! I have pretty much all of REM's CDs, making new songs a real treat to hear. When Reveal came out, I wasn't so impressed. Because of that minor disappointment, I wondered how I would like the next new material to come out. I'm just here to say I love it! I give REM all my love.
